**Chapter 450**<\/p>\n
Sydney\u2019s mind was a tumultuous sea of thoughts, waves crashing against one another, each one more chaotic than the last. The unfinished words Julian had left hanging in the air that day echoed in her head, a haunting melody she couldn\u2019t shake off.<\/p>\n
*Could it be that he was about to propose?* The mere notion sent a rush of emotions flooding through her, and before she could suppress them, tears began to spill from her eyes, cascading down her cheeks and soaking into her clothes, leaving dark, damp patches that marked her distress.<\/p>\n
The interior of the car was shrouded in a soft, muted light, creating an atmosphere that felt both intimate and heavy with unspoken words. Despite the silence that enveloped them, Julian\u2019s presence was palpable. Moments later, she felt the gentle brush of his rough, warm fingertips at the corner of her eye, a tender gesture that ignited a flicker of hope amidst her sorrow.<\/p>\n
When Julian felt the wetness on his thumb, a small fissure opened within him\u2014not a deep wound, but enough to create a dull ache that resonated in his chest. He wiped away her tears with a quiet resolve, his heart heavy with the weight of their shared history. After a long, pregnant pause, he finally mustered the courage to address the elephant in the room. \u201cPrecious\u2026 back then, I really couldn\u2019t think of a better way,\u201d he murmured, his voice low and muffled, reverberating in the stillness of the car.<\/p>\n
The moment Sydney heard his words, the floodgates opened wider, and her tears flowed more freely. She raised her face, her eyes red-rimmed and streaming, not caring in the slightest about her disheveled appearance. All she could focus on was the warmth radiating from Julian, the man who had once held her heart so delicately in his hands.<\/p>\n
As he reached for a tissue, leaning closer, an impulsive surge of longing overtook her. Without a second thought, she pressed her lips against his, taking the lead for the second time in recent days, a bold move that surprised even herself.<\/p>\n
Julian was momentarily taken aback, his body frozen in place, but the familiarity of her touch stirred something deep within him. This was the woman he had adored, the one he could never truly let go of. He responded to her kiss with a gentle tenderness, wrapping an arm around her waist and drawing her onto his lap, where she belonged.<\/p>\n
Just as he was about to deepen their kiss, the shrill ring of her phone shattered the moment. Sydney glanced down, the caller ID flashing Marcus\u2019s name like a warning sign.<\/p>\n
At this hour, Marcus never called unless something urgent had arisen.<\/p>\n
With a sniffle, still flustered from their intimate moment, she grabbed the phone, her heart racing. \u201cHello? Marc, what\u2019s wrong?\u201d she asked, her voice a mixture of concern and curiosity.<\/p>\n
\u201cSyd, did you see what\u2019s happening online?\u201d His tone was laced with worry, tight and anxious. \u201cAre you alright?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI saw it,\u201d she replied softly, trying to quell the storm brewing within her. \u201cBut I\u2019m fine. Don\u2019t worry about me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Deep down, she felt confident that her medication was not the issue. What truly mattered now was unraveling the chaos that had erupted and pinpointing the puppeteer behind the strings once she returned to Jouleston.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s good,\u201d Marcus said, though Sydney could hear the hesitation that lingered in his voice. \u201cThen\u2026 when will you be back?\u201d<\/p>\n
He was already aware of her car accident and had intended to visit her in Brimcrest, but since she had been staying with the Huttons, it had become inconvenient. He had opted to wait until she returned home.<\/p>\n
Yet, something in his tone caused Sydney\u2019s brow to furrow in concern.<\/p>\n
\u201cMarc, did something happen? Is someone from the project team taking advantage of the chaos?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d he replied quickly, shaking his head even though she couldn\u2019t see him.<\/p>\n
Not wanting to add to her worries, he decided to be straightforward. \u201cIt\u2019s Alan. Something\u2019s happened. After the last press conference, everyone found out you\u2019re his prized protege. Now that this scandal has exploded, the angry netizens couldn\u2019t locate your address, so they\u2019ve turned their fury on him instead.\u201d<\/p>\n

The online outrage had escalated into a full-blown mob mentality. Without any solid evidence, people were already hurling accusations at Sydney and Sterling Corp., branding them as heartless entities willing to trade human lives for profit.<\/p>\n
Had it not been for the meticulous management of her whereabouts\u2014first by Julian, then by the Hutton family\u2014she would have undoubtedly been their primary target.<\/p>\n
Sydney\u2019s brows knitted together sharply, her thoughts racing, when suddenly, Julian took the phone from her grasp with a steady hand.<\/p>\n
His commanding voice resonated through the line, authoritative and calm. \u201cMr. Shepard, tell the old couple to pack the essentials. I\u2019ll arrange for someone to pick them up if they need to lay low for a while.\u201d<\/p>\n
Marcus froze, taken aback by Julian\u2019s sudden intervention. \u201cAlright, I\u2019ll tell them right away. But their place is already surrounded by reporters and angry onlookers. Do you\u2026 really have a way to\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cJust make the call,\u201d Julian interjected smoothly, his tone unwavering. \u201cLeave the rest to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
