Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Chapter 1046 Sydney's Worries

"What?" Dale froze, unable to believe what he had heard.

The woman able to protect a company from Mr. Flint's retaliation actually did not rely on a powerful family.

No one would believe it.

"Could it be that this woman has some special ability that can make Mr. Flint give in?" Dale looked at Mr. Guzman and asked.

Mr. Guzman waved his hand. "Of course not. It's because of her grandfather."

"Her grandfather?"

"That's right." Mr. Guzman nodded. "Her grandfather is Mr. McDaniel, the head of the McDaniel family."

"The McDaniel family that does the online business?" asked Dale, rubbing his chin.

Mr. Guzman said, "Yeah. Mr. McDaniel used to be a professor of economics and Mr. Flint's teacher. Mr. Flint's achievements are partly due to Mr. McDaniel's teaching. Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter, Miss McDaniel, is about the same age as Mr. Flint. They are childhood friends, so even if Miss McDaniel does something wrong, Mr. Flint will forgive her for Mr. McDaniel's sake. Now do you know why I am not afraid of Mr. Flint's revenge?"

"Yes." Dale nodded his head in a daze. As if to confirm something, he asked, "Is Mr. Flint close to Miss McDaniel?"

Mr. Guzman paused for a moment. "I'm not sure. No matter whether they are close or not, Mr. McDaniel is the key figure."

"That's true," Dale laughed and took his hand out of his suit pocket. "Mr. Guzman, if there is nothing else, I'll go out and get the tools to clean the floor up."

"Go ahead." Mr. Guzman nodded his head.

Dale turned around and went out. After closing the door, he immediately took out his cell phone and called Sydney.

When Sydney saw the caller ID, there was a clear flash of surprise in her eyes.

Obviously, she did not expect that Dale would actually contact her so quickly.

She wondered if he had gotten the answer.

Sydney immediately picked up the phone. "Hello?"

"Ms. Raines, I've got what you want to know." Dale held the phone with both hands, unable to hide the excitement on his face.

Sydney's expression froze.

Although she had already guessed it before answering the phone, as she heard it, she was thrilled.

"Really?" Sydney straightened her back and asked in an eager tone.

Dale nodded repeatedly. "Yes."

"Great, tell me who it is." Sydney's face was full of joy.

Dale did not keep her guessing. He told her what he had just cajoled out of Mr. Guzman in the office.

Sydney's face suddenly stiffened after she heard this. "What did you say? Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter?"

"That's right."

Sydney frowned and stopped talking with mixed feelings.

'It is Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter.

'Mr. McDaniel...'

If she remembered correctly, she and Julien mentioned Mr. McDaniel in the video call in the morning.

It was such a coincidence. The person who faked the rumors about Sydney and Luke on the Internet to destroy their relationship was actually Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

'Does Mr. McDaniel know about this?

'If so, how will he handle it?'

Before the video call ended, Julien was going to see Mr. McDaniel.

When Julien mentioned Mr. McDaniel, the respect in his tone was so obvious.

The person behind the scenes was Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter, so Julien was caught between Mr. McDaniel and Sydney. How would he deal with Miss McDaniel?

Sydney was uncertain. For a time, she had complicated emotions.

Originally, she thought that the mastermind was just a woman who adored Julien and had a strong family background.

Unexpectedly, that woman had this kind of relationship with Julien.

No wonder she said she could save the Squirrel team.

Sydney initially felt that it was a boast, but now, it seemed she was too naive.

With this relationship, Julien would let the Squirrel team go.

Of course, the premise was that the McDaniel family was more important to Julien than Sydney.

Yet Sydney was not sure who was more important in Julien's heart.

It was impossible to make a comparison.

Dale, who had not heard a sound from Sydney for a long while, called out, "Ms. Raines, Ms. Raines?"

Sydney's eyes flickered for a moment. She came to her senses. "Yes."

"Ms. Raines, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." Sydney rubbed her temples and sighed tiredly, "I want to make sure if it's really that McDaniel family."

She hoped not, although it was very likely to be true.

On the other end of the phone, Dale, not knowing what Sydney was thinking, nodded. "It is. I have a recording of Mr. Guzman talking about this family. I'll send it to you later."

"Okay." Sydney forced a smile in response.

"So Ms. Raines, my work..." Dale rubbed his hands together and asked with a grin.

Sydney was now not sure if she could arrange for Dale to work at the Flint Group anymore. After all, the McDaniel family was close to Julien.

If she was not as important to Julien as the McDaniel family, Julien would not make things difficult for Miss McDaniel.

And Sydney would be dissatisfied with Julien because of this.

At that time, would she put aside her dignity to let Julien hire someone?

Probably not.

Therefore, Sydney was not sure.

However, if she said so to Dale, she would feel like she had deceived him.

And Sydney didn't know if Dale would do something uncontrollable if he thought he had been cheated.

In short, she was vexed.

But Sydney could only say in an ambiguous manner, "Don't worry. I will arrange it and contact you later."

No matter what, she should pacify Dale first.

After that, Sydney would find a way to fulfill her promise.

Even if she couldn't, she would give Dale enough money.

After all, that was all she could do.

When Dale heard Sydney's words, he nodded his head excitedly. "OK, thank you, Ms. Raines. I'll send the recording to you."

"Uh-huh." Sydney managed a smile.

After the call ended, Sydney sighed.

The next second, the phone dinged. It was an audio file from Dale.

Sydney sat up straight, threw all the trouble out of her mind, and listened to the recording.

She clicked on the recording and began to listen to it with a serious expression.

After that, she closed her eyes.

As Dale said, the recording was about the McDaniel family.

Sydney was now more certain that the person behind the curtain was Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter.

Sydney did not know that Julien actually had a childhood female friend.

Sydney gave a mocking smile.

She was not upset about that.

After all, Sydney had a childhood male friend who was Luke.

So, she wouldn't have double standards on such things.

Sydney was just unhappy that Julien hadn't told her about his childhood female friend who had feelings for him.

As she was sunk in thought, the phone in her hand rang.

Sydney looked down and saw Julien's name flashing on the screen. Her heart thumped.
