Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! -
Chapter 506 Velma, a Vain and Foolish Woman
"Yes." Zach also nodded with admiration.
Cayden's hacking skills were really high.
The hackers of the Flint Corporation were of the top level.
Julien had also asked the hackers of the corporation to find the whereabouts of Burton, but up to now, they hadn't achieved any result at all. Instead, Cayden found Burton first.
This comparison showed how powerful Cayden's skill was.
"Now that Cayden has sent his men there, you can also arrange for some of our men to go there. If we're late, he may be taken away by Cayden's men." Julien lowered his eyes and said in a calm voice. Since Burton dared to push Sydney off the cliff, he must teach him a lesson in person. No one could do this ahead of him, not even Layden!
"OK, I got it." Zach nodded.
Julien waved his hand. "You can go now."
"Well..there is actually one more thing." Zach didn't leave immediately, and he pushed the glasses up his nose.
Julien looked at him with a slight frown." What's the matter?"
"Last night, when seeing Ms. Raines and Mr. Chase hugging each other, we suspected that they were a couple. Then I asked someone to investigate into this and we found that they were just friends," Zach said.
He saw that Julien's eyes immediately brightened up. "What did you say? They are not a couple?"
"No." Zach shook his head.
Julien felt his cold heart seem to be melted, and his expression also softened a lot." Since they aren't a couple, then last night...'
"Maybe there are other reasons. President Flint, would you like to ask Ms. Raines yourself?" Zach suggested.
Julien pursed his thin lips and said, "No, just forget it."
As long as she was not with Luke, he was already very happy.
"Then I'll leave first." Since Zach had told Julien this important matter, he was about to leave.
Julien nodded slightly. "OK."
Zach turned and went out.
Two days passed quickly, and the Old Madam's eightieth birthday party finally came.
The party was held in the Flint family's old residence. When Sydney arrived there, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
After getting off the car, she handed the car key to the valet. Then she took out the invitation from her bag and walked to the gate. Upon arriving at the gate, Sydney handed the invitation to the bodyguard.
After checking it, the bodyguard allowed her to come in.
Sydney raised her skirt, crossed the high threshold and walked towards the banquet hall.
Looking at her graceful figure, the bodyguard picked up the microphone pinned to his waist and shouted, "Zach, Ms. Raines has arrived." Hearing the bodyguard's words, Zach replied, "OK, I see."
Putting down the microphone, Zach turned to the front lounge and knocked on the door.
The door was opened by Felicia, and she said to him with a smile, "Good evening, Zach."
"Felicia, I'm looking for President Flint." Zach said.
Felicia replied, "He is talking to the Old
Madam now. Please come in first.
"OK." Zach nodded and walked into the lounge.
When Julien saw him come in, he stopped talking with the Old Madam, took a sip of water and asked, "What's up?"
"Ms. Raines is here" Zach answered politely.
Julien paused for a moment, and he
quickly returned to his normal state. "I see."
Then he stood up. "Grandma, I'll go first."
"Wait a minute." The Old Madam took the cane from Felicia and stood up. She said with a smile, "Let's go together. I haven't seen Sydney for a long time. Now that all the guests have arrived, I should go out and show my face."
Julien smiled gently. "OK, then we will go to the hall together. Let me help you."
The Old Madam glanced at his left arm wrapped in gauze and said with a snort, * You'd better take care of yourself. You are not a child anymore, and how could you accidentally fall and hurt your arm while walking?"
Julien looked away with guilt.
Zach directly turned his head.
Fortunately, the Old Madam didn't pay much attention to them, so she didn't notice their strange behaviors. She was helped out of the lounge by Felicia.
Julien and Zach followed behind them.
In the banquet hall.
The appearance of Sydney still attracted many guests' attention.
After all, everyone in this circle knew that she was Julien's ex-wife.
Now that she had come to attend the banquet, many people cast curious glances at her and gossiped about her in a low voice.
Velma wore a red evening dress tonight with a bun hairstyle. Holding a glass of red wine, she was chatting with the wives of some big shots.
Suddenly, one of the ladies tugged at Velma's sleeve and said in the direction of Sydney. "Isn't that your former daughter-in-law?"
"What?" Velma's face immediately sank, and her smile froze. She looked in the direction pointed by the lady and then saw Sydney. Velma's face twisted in anger.
When that lady saw her expression, she couldn't help feeling happy.
The other ladies also looked at each other with a gloating smile.
In a word, they were glad to see Velma depressed.
Although they usually hung out with Velma for beauty salons or shopping, they detested her and just used her as a cash machine.
They were all married to rich men, and their birth was nobler than that of Velma.
However, Velma, a vulgar woman, was lucky enough to marry into the Flint family. This made her social status far higher than theirs, and they had no choice but to flatter her.
Fortunately, this woman was an idiot, and she was easy to please. As long as they said something nice to her, she would be complacent and give them all the good things. Every time they went out for dinner o shopping, she would bear all the expenses.
This was the reason why they were willing to butter her up all day.
Velma didn't know what those ladies were thinking about. Holding the glass tightly, she stared at Sydney with a grim expression. It seemed that she wanted to poke holes in Sydney's body with her sharp eyes. The lady who spoke earlier rolled her eyes and said something more provoking. "Velma, what's your former daughter-in-law's purpose for attending this party? I guess she might want to please the Old Madam to remarry Julien. I've heard that the Old Madam likes her very much, and she may succeed. After all, Julien is always filial to the Old Madam..."
Velma was indeed pissed off. She put down the glass heavily, glared at Sydney and said, "She wants to marry into the Flint family again? She must be daydreaming!" Her face had turned slightly red out of anger.
Hearing this, the ladies around her exchanged glances with each other and then quickly looked away.
The lady who provoked Velma on purpose covered her mouth and smiled proudly.
Velma really fell for it.
They all knew that Velma hated her former daughter-in-law and had used various methods to torture Sydney before.
So this lady said this on purpose to provoke Velma. As long as she took the bait, she would definitely make a fool of herself.
These ladies were highborn, and their husbands were also rich with high social status. They couldn't put up with the fact that they were overshadowed by a woman whose appearance and upbringing were far inferior to theirs.
However, due to their great disparity in status, they couldn't do anything to Velma in public. Instead, they could only use other methods to let Velma make a fool of herself, and this would somewhat dissipate their jealousy.
