When Sydney said "lame move", she accentuated her tone and cast a nonchalant glance at Zach.
Hearing Sydney's words, Zach immediately became nervous. He gave a bitter smile. "Ms. Raines, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said that. I don't know if you arranged that. If I had known it was you, I wouldn't have said that.”
Zach was surprised that Sydney cared so much about his remark, and she remembered what he said.
Zach had said that it was a lame move to cap Dallin with a sack and beat him, but he later said it was brilliant practice and that it taught Dall a lesson.
‘Ms. Raines didn't remember what I said later. She only remembered me saying it was a lame move. She just repeated what I said to mock me... Since Ms. Raines got back with Mr. Flint, she became more and more like him. She's critical of me right now. Mr. Flint is to blame!’
Seeing the wry smile on Zach's face, Sydney chuckled, "Zach, I'm just kidding. Take it easy.”
Zach looked up at the sky.
'Ms. Raines, your joke freaked me out.’
Julien, who was sitting next to Sydney, clearly saw Zach's mood change. Noticing Zach's embarrassed expression, he snorted, "Don't apologize to him." He deserved it. He should pay attention to his speech.”
Zach silently complained, 'Mr. Flint, how can you say that?' I've said a lot of mean things, but you've never criticized me. Now because I was talking about Ms. Raines, your attitude changed. Do you have any principles? I know you're just trying to please Ms. Raines.’
Seeing Zach's sullen face, Sydney changed the subject. She didn't want to upset Zach.
"Zach was right. Although it was a lame move, Dallin got a good kick. I'm very happy about that.” Sydney smiled.
Just then, Zach's phone rang.
Zach checked his cell phone and then said, "Mr. Flint, Ms. Raines, it’s the guy we sent over to keep an eye on Dallin. He should know about Dallin's injuries."
"Answer the phone." Julien lifted his chin. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Sydney also wanted to know how badly Dallin was hurt. She turned her ear to Zach, too.
Zach answered the phone. After a few moments of uh-ohs into the phone, he hangs up the phone. It was no more than a minute.
"Mr. Flint, Ms. Raines, Dallin was taken straight to an emergency room at a private hospital after his assistant found him. He was awfully injured. He's lost two teeth, a broken rib, sprained his right ankle, dislocated his elbow, and his left eye is severely damaged. He'll need to be hospitalized for a month." Zach reported with excitement.
Sydney exclaimed, "Sounds like his injury is terrible."
She had just seen only the injuries on Dallin's face in the picture. She guessed he must have a lot of injuries on his body, too.
But she didn't expect his rib to break. She thought he only had a few scrapes and bruises.
She'd underestimated the viciousness of Yuri's men.
"His injuries were bad, but Dallin had it coming. It wasn't hard enough for him. He should be crippled,"Zach snorted.
Sydney looked at Julien, but didn't see any emotion on his face. She nodded slightly. "You're right."
She didn't feel guilty at all for Dallin's injuries.
Dallin deserved to die for what he'd done.
Those injuries were just a piece of cake.
"I'm sorry, that’s all I can do. I couldn't kill Dallin,"Sydney said apologetically as she took Julien's hand.
Julien took her hand in his and smiled at her. "It was enough. I'm happy. Thank you."
Sydney had always been a gentle woman. She had never done anything like that before.
But in order to avenge Julien's mother, Sydney broke her own principles and hired someone to beat up Dallin. Julien was touched.
He was really happy in his heart.
As Julien said he was happy, Sydney was relieved and smiled.
She was worried that Julien wouldn't be happy about it and that he might blame her for doing it.
Now it seemed that Julien wasn't angry.
If Julien was unhappy about it, Sydney would be frustrated because she had done it for him.
If Julien blamed her, she would feel disappointed.
But Julien appreciated what she had done.
"Who did you get to beat up Dallin?" asked Julien as he took Sydney into his arms, "Tell me. I'll let Zach handle it. If Dallin finds out it was you, you're in trouble."
Zach nodded. "Yes. Ms. Raines. Right now Dallin is in the hospital. He hasn't had time to investigate it. I need to deal with it as soon as possible."
Sydney waved her hand. "That's okay. I enlisted Luke's help. He's got a friend named Yuri. I guess you guys have heard of him."
"Almond? "Zach's eyes widened in surprise. "Ms. Raines, is that Yuri?"
Sydney nodded, "Yes."
Julien was also a little surprised, but quickly calmed down. He asked, "Luke is friends with that guy?"
"When Luke was in high school, he was the leader of a gangster group for a while, and Yuri was his follower. Yuri was his follower at that time. Yuri was supported by Luke's family, so Yuri always followed Luke’s orders. Later, Luke quit the group and Yuri became the leader of the group. Since then, Yuri has been leading the group. Even though he's now the leader of the group, he's still friends with Luke, so Luke gave Yuri a call and told Yuri to make the arrangements. Luke said that even if Dallin finds out it's Yuri's men, there's nothing he can do about it. Yuri has connections to the police, and Dallin can only bear it. If he finds out it's Yuri, he won't continue the investigation. Don't worry about Dallin finding out it was me or getting back at me."
Sydney gave Julien a brief of what Luke told her earlier.
Julien nodded slightly, "Luke is right. Dallin can only bear it. Almond has connections with the police. Dallin wouldn't dare to do anything to him. Now I'm relieved."
Yuri changed his name to Almond a few years ago.
He was the big boss of the gangster group. Almond sounded more intimidating.
"I'm surprised Mr. Chase is friends with Almond." Zach exclaimed.
Even Julien was also a bit surprised.
"Luckily, you hired Almond. If it wasn't Almond, I wouldn't be so relieved." Julien looked at Sydney.
Sydney smiled. "I wasn't thinking that much. I just wanted to teach Dallin a lesson and I remembered that Luke was a gang leader in high school, so I thought he might know someone. After I contacted Luke, I learned that Luke was still in contact with Yuri and that Yuri had become the boss of the group. I guessed that God wasn't happy with Dallin either, so he was doing me a favor."
