Sydney covered her lips and laughed when she thought of the nervous look Julien might show when he went to meet her parents.

But as she laughed, sadness rose in her heart.

Unfortunately, her parents had died.

Julien would never be able to meet her parents. All he could see were two cold tombstones.

The sadness emanating from Sydney was detected by Julien.

As soon as he saw her expression, he knew what she was thinking.

He rubbed the top of her head and said in a soft voice, "Well, don't think too much. Now, give me some advice on the gifts for Mrs. Chase and the others."

"Do you have time to go tomorrow?" Sydney looked up at him.

Julien nodded. "Yes. It's very important to meet your elders. Even if I don't have time, I will have to make time."

"You don't have to do that." Sydney shook her head. "I can explain to Mrs. Chase. She will understand."

"It's okay." Julien kissed her forehead. "The Flint Corporation has so many capable people. If it can't function because I'm not there for a day, why should I hire them? So don't worry. Zach will arrange everything."

Seeing how seriously he said it, Sydney nodded. "Okay then, I'll tell Luke that we'll go over tomorrow."

With that, she got up from the man's arms and picked up her phone to send a message.

Julien watched her fingers nimbly type without bothering her.

Soon, Sydney sent her reply.

Luke had probably been waiting for her reply, so soon, she received a message from him.

The content was simple. He sent her an OK emoji and three words, "see you tomorrow".

Sydney turned her cell phone off. "Okay, Luke already knows. We'll just go there tomorrow afternoon."

Julien nodded slightly. "Now you can tell me what Mr. Chase and Mrs. Chase like, right? I can have someone prepare."

"Mr. Chase likes to drink. As for Mrs. Chase..." Sydney smiled with her finger on her cheek. "She just likes bags and cosmetics."

Julien nodded thoughtfully. "I have a few bottles of original wine from foreign wineries. I believe Mr. Chase will like them. And I'll give Mrs. Chase Dior and Chanel cosmetics and perfumes for next season, which are not yet available yet. What do you think?" Julien looked at Sydney with downcast eyes.

She hurriedly nodded. "Mr. and Mrs. Chase will definitely like your gifts."

The first batch of original wine produced by those big wineries was worth a lot of money.

If Julien hadn't been ranked among the world's richest people, he wouldn't have had these wines.

The Chase family was not a top family. It was only powerful in Port City, but not in the country or even the world.

So although the Chase family was rich, they were not qualified to buy these wines.

Mr. Chase loved drinking and collecting wine. When she was young, she had heard Mr. Chase lament that although he had collected so much wine, his only regret was that he did not have original wine from the top wineries.

Julien would soon give him the original wine. Sydney believed that when Mr. Chase saw it tomorrow, he would be very excited and become good friends with Julien.

Mrs. Chase would be delighted too. She was already more than 50, but as an elegant and exquisite woman, she naturally liked what young women like.

Mrs. Chase was not short of these luxurious cosmetics, clothes, shoes, bags, etc., yet she could only buy them from the market. She couldn't pre-order those unavailable products. However, Julien was different. He just needed to say a word, and those fashion companies would lay out all the products for the next season or even next year for him to choose.

If he gave Mrs. Chase cosmetics that were not yet on the market, she would be overjoyed.

This time Mrs. Chase proposed to meet them. With Sydney's understanding of Mrs. Chase, it was mostly because Mrs. Chase wanted to warn Julien to treat Sydney well and not to bully or cheat on her. Because Sydney didn't have a mother anymore, Mrs. Chase, who was like Sydney's mother, would naturally stand up for Sydney as her elder and warn Sydney's future husband.

Sydney believed that if Mrs. Chase received the cosmetics from Julien tomorrow, she would no longer want to warn him. Instead, Mrs. Chase would accept Julien and treat Julien as her own son. After all, these cosmetics sent by Julien could meet not only a woman's preferences but also a woman's vanity.

Mrs. Chase could take those cosmetics that were not yet on the market to show off in front of her friends, and then, Mrs. Chase's status in her social circle would skyrocket.

Based on this, Julien would be held in high esteem by Mrs. Chase.

When she thought of how Mr. and Mrs. Chase might look when they saw the gifts tomorrow, a smile appeared in Sydney's eyes.

Julien's EQ was sometimes low but sometimes terrifyingly high.

She just casually mentioned the things that Mr. and Mrs. Chase liked, and he could immediately prepare what Mr. and Mrs. Chase would definitely like and could not refuse. With this kind of reaction ability, no wonder he was able to do well in the business world.

Julien didn't know what Sydney was thinking. He rubbed her hair and stood up. "Sit down. I'm going to call Zach."

Sydney knew he was going to ask Zach to prepare a gift, so she just replied, "Go ahead."

Julien turned around and headed for the study.

He had left his cell phone there, so he had to go to the study to make a call.

Sydney sat on the sofa, picked up the TV remote, and turned on the TV across from her.

Julien came out in a few minutes.

He sat back down next to Sydney on the sofa, continued to put his arm around her waist, and watched TV with her.

Sydney was used to his embrace whenever he sat down next to her.

So as he hugged her, she didn't feel any discomfort. On the contrary, she accepted it very naturally and gave up half of the blanket to him.

They just snuggled up against each other on the sofa watching TV, and the atmosphere was very cozy.

After two hours, Sydney fell asleep with her head on Julien's shoulder.

Julien looked sideways at her sleeping face, smiled tenderly, lifted her face, and carried her to the room.

The next day, Sydney woke up at eight o'clock.

Julien had already left Shallow Bay and gone to the Flint Corporation.

He didn't go to work yesterday. Although there was Zach in the corporation, many documents needed to be signed personally by Julien.

He had to go to the corporation today. Otherwise, the work would pile up.

So he left Shallow Bay after waking up and leaving Sydney a note that he had gone to work.

Sydney yawned. After putting the note back on the bedside table, she lifted the covers, went to the foyer, opened the door, and got today's breakfast.

Now Julien would not leave a message that there was breakfast for her outside the door.

Julien was clear that she already knew that he would have breakfast brought to her once he left home before her.

As expected, she got up and came straight to the door.
