Chapter 1135 Zach Was Stressed Out
Julien frowned and instantly took a disgusted look at Zach at the door.
Zach's mouth twitched.
'What's going on? Mr. Flint looks at me like I am a fool.
'Did I guess wrong?'
As he was thinking, Zach suddenly saw something.
Julien's robe was slightly open, revealing his neck with traces of being bitten and scratched.
Zach, who was a virgin but had seen porn, instantly understood how these marks had been left on Julien's neck.
There was a sudden embarrassment on Zach's handsome face.
'Cat. Scratches.
'Obviously, the cat that Mr. Flint mentioned is not really a cat but a person.
'As for who that person is, it's self-evident. Who else could it be but Ms. Raines?
'That is to say, Mr. Flint and Ms. Raines may have had sex in the morning, and Mr. Flint felt so satisfied that he opened the door with a smile on his face.
'Then it seems that Mr. Flint's smile was not for me. It's because he just made love to Ms. Raines. He just didn't stop smiling before I saw him.
'And embarrassingly, I thought Mr. Flint was smiling at me and was happy to see me.
'How was that possible?
'Luckily, I didn't look very touched at that time. Otherwise, I would have made a fool of myself.'
Zach looked awkward.
Then he heard Julien ask in a cold voice, "What are you doing here?"
Zach looked up and saw that Julien's smile had already been replaced by coldness and impatience.
He looked just like when Zach usually came to his door.
'Sure enough, this is how I, a subordinate, should be treated.
'I overthought it just now.'
Zach laughed at himself in his heart. He pushed his glasses and replied respectfully, "Mr. Flint, you've forgotten that you told me yesterday that I should drive the car over and bring you breakfast this morning."
With that, he handed Julien a bag.
Julien raised an eyebrow, apparently remembering that there was indeed such a thing.
After taking the breakfast, Julien was about to send Zach away.
The sound of footsteps came from behind him.
It was Sydney who had changed and come out of her room, coming to stand behind Julien, looking at Zach at the door and smiling at him, "Good morning Zach."
"Morning Ms. Raines." Zach returned the smile.
Sydney took Julien's arm and asked, "Zach, did you have breakfast? If not, come in and eat with us."
After she said that, Julien's eyes instantly narrowed and looked dangerously at Zach outside the door.
Julien hinted that if Zach dared to say no, he would fix Zach.
Julien did it stealthily, so it was only seen by Zach, who was only a little shorter than him.
So Sydney didn't know that her words had made Julien upset about Zach.
But Zach knew. The smile on his face became faint, and even sweat broke out on his forehead as he laughed bitterly in his heart.
'Ms. Raines, do you know you've got me in trouble?'
Zach knew that Sydney had asked that just out of politeness and that she wasn't aware Julien would be jealous.
But at that moment, he was really stressed out.
'Mr. Flint looks at me like we are dead enemies.'
'Does he have to be so angry?
'Ms. Raines just invited him to have breakfast with them.
'He makes it look like I stole Ms. Raines from him.'
Zach quietly glanced at Julien's increasingly sullen face and then looked at Sydney's smiling face. Zach sighed in his heart, maintained a smile, and answered, "No need, Ms. Raines. I had breakfast.
Just eat with Mr. Flint. Don't mind me."
Zach thought, 'After hearing this, Mr. Flint will not glare at me anymore, right?'
He once again sneaked a look at Julien out of the corner of his eye.
Sure enough, he saw that Julien's face had relaxed.
At once, Zach was greatly relieved.
Sydney still didn't notice the eye contact between the two men, and she didn't feel the slightest surprise when she heard Zach's refusal.
On the contrary, she would be amazed if Zach had not refused.
"Then I won't force you," Sydney said as she pushed her hair around her ear.
Zach instantly breathed a huge sigh of relief. "Thank you for inviting me, Ms. Raines. I'll leave you and Mr. Flint to dine. I'll wait for you in the parking lot."
"Take care." Sydney nodded with a smile.
Zach glanced at Julien again. Seeing that Julien was no longer annoyed, Zach felt at ease and turned to leave.
After Zach left, Sydney closed the door, took Julien's arm, and walked back to the living room, saying, "I don't know if it was my illusion. I felt as if Zach was scared by something. Did you feel it?"
She looked up at Julien's handsome face.
Julien's eyes flashed. Of course, it was impossible for him to admit that Zach had been scared by him just now. He coughed quietly with his fist against his lips, replying calmly, "No, I didn't feel
anything." Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Sydney didn't think much about it and nodded. "Then it seems that I was wrong. Forget it. Let's eat breakfast first. I'm a bit hungry."
Julien nodded, put the breakfast bag on the table, and pulled out a chair for her.
After she sat down, he opened the bag and laid the food out.
After breakfast, it was already past eight o'clock.
Julien held Sydney's hand. They walked out of the apartment, entered the elevator, and came to the parking lot.
Julien suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Sydney turned to look at him. "What's wrong? Why did you stop?"
Julien let go of her hand and rubbed his temples. "The flash drive that was used to copy the data last night is still in the study. I forgot to take it. Wait for me in the car. I'll go get it."
"Okay, then go quickly." Sydney nodded slightly.
Julien turned around, re-entered the elevator in the parking lot, and went upstairs.
Sydney looked around, found Julien's car, and walked toward it.
Just as she approached, the car door was unlocked. Zach got out of the driver's seat and pulled open the backseat door for Sydney. "Ms. Raines, please get in."
"Thanks." Sydney gave him a smile and bent down to get into the car.
Zach closed the backseat door and returned to the driver's seat.
Just when he sat down, he heard Sydney's voice from the backseat. "Zach, I want to ask you something."
Zach turned around. "Just go ahead, Ms. Raines. I will definitely tell you as much as I can."
Sydney smiled, "That's fine. Then I won't beat around the bush. I want to know what you said to Julien last night. Why did he become a bit off after he came back? When I asked him about it, he refused to tell me. Did something happen to the Flint Corporation?"
"Well..." Zach hesitated.
How could he have expected that Sydney would ask this?
He did not even know how to answer.
Sydney looked at Zach and pursed her red lips. "Is it hard to answer?"
"No..." Zach scratched his head.
Sydney continued to stare at him. "Then why don't you answer me? Is it something about the Flint Corporation's secrets? If so, just pretend I didn't ask. It's okay."
