Chapter 1197 It Was Good to Leave
Yuri was one of Luke's best friends, so he knew very well what kind of person Yuri was.
Such a slowcoach did something so quickly. It was conceivable that Luke was very important in Yuri's heart.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken Luke's request so seriously.
So how could Luke not be surprised and happy?
As for Sydney, she didn't know Yuri. Nor did she know what kind of person he was.
Now, after hearing Luke's words, she realized that Yuri was a person who worked very slowly.
However, it was such an inefficient person who did her a favor so quickly. Sydney felt very touched.
"Maybe it was because you approached him that he did it so quickly, and of course, it was also possible that after being the boss all these years, he became much more efficient." Sydney guessed with a smile.
Luke rubbed his chin and nodded. "It makes sense, but whatever the reason, it's good that Yuri got things done quickly."
"Yeah, I called you mainly because I wanted you to bring a thank-you gift over for me," Sydney said.
"A thank you gift?"
"Yes."
"For Yuri?"
"Who else?" Sydney shrugged. "He helped me teach Dallin a lesson, so, of course, I should send a thank-you gift to show my appreciation. I can't just do nothing, right? I can't take it for granted. So I have to prepare a thank you gift. After all, besides thanking him, I don't want to owe him a favor." Luke tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. "That's true. You are not close to Yuri, so it's really not good for you to owe him anything."
"So I am here to ask you what he likes. I can prepare it, and you can help me deliver it when the time comes. Of course, there will be a thank-you gift for you as well," Sydney said with a smile.
Luke's face lit up again. "Oh? For me?"
"Of course, you're the middleman, and you helped me contact Yuri, so naturally, I should give you a gift too. I can't make you work for nothing, right?" "Haha, thank you then, Syd." Luke rubbed his hands together excitedly. "Actually, even if you don't give me anything, I'm willing to help you."
"I know, but I can't do nothing just because you're willing, right? That's shameful. Well, tell me what Yuri likes now. As for what you like, you don't have to tell me. I know about it," Sydney urged as she squeezed her sore shoulders.
"Okay, I won't say what I like, just prepare by yourself. As for what Yuri likes, although he is a boss, he has a shining child's heart, probably because of his origins. He grew up in an orphanage, relying on others' help, and it was already lucky for him to have enough to eat and wear. Naturally, he could not have the toys he wanted. So since he grew up, he has liked to buy himself all kinds of Lego toys. Just prepare a limited-edition adult Lego toy for him. He will definitely like it very much," Luke said affirmatively.
Sydney slowly nodded. "Alright then, I'll prepare it. Luke, thank you."
"You're welcome." Luke waved his hand. "Anything else?"
"No. I guess you don't want to hear more," Sydney replied with her head propped up in a slightly leaning position.
Luke became interested. "Oh? What is it? Why are you so sure I don't want to hear it?"
"Sean's going abroad for further study. Do you think you'd like to hear something about her?" Sydney asked tentatively. 'Either way, Sean is going abroad.
'I hope Luke can stop holding a grudge against Sean.
'After all, that incident wasn't Sean's fault alone.
'It was partly Luke's fault.
'He can't just blame Sean and ignore his own fault.
'He should know that Sean was not able to do that alone.'
On the other end of the phone, Luke's face paused as he suddenly heard Sydney mention Sean.
Unexpectedly, the thing she said that he wouldn't want to hear was about that woman.
Indeed, he didn't want to hear it.
Hearing Luke's sudden silence, Sydney knew that her mentioning of Sean had upset him. She couldn't help but sigh, "Luke, do you know that Sean is going abroad?"
Although Sydney asked this, she felt that Luke did not know.
However, Luke's answer took her by surprise.
"Yes."
"You know?" Sydney was amazed.
Luke nodded. "She told me."
Sydney's mouth opened for a moment before she said, "Sean told you herself?"
"Yes. She called to tell me." Luke lied with his eyes downcast.
Sydney, however, believed it. "I see. I thought you didn't know."
'It was reasonable. After all, Sean likes Luke, even though things have become complicated between them and Luke is still terribly cold to Sean. 'Yet no matter what, Luke is the person Sean likes.
'Sean must have wanted to tell Luke that she was leaving, right?
'Perhaps she wanted to test if Luke would ask her to stay.'
But Sydney thought that in the end, Sean might have been disappointed.
Judging from Luke's response, he didn't seem like he'd keep Sean.
"I know, but so what? She can leave if she wants to. I can't stop her anyway, can I?" Luke leaned back on the seat and inclined his head to look out the car window at the villa, not knowing that his expression had
become gloomy and complex.
Sydney rubbed her brow. "That being said, you guys are friends after all. Now that she's leaving, do you not feel anything?"
"What should I feel? I am not familiar with her anyway. I don't feel anything," Luke responded stubbornly.
Sydney shook her head resignedly. "Alas. At least you've known each other for almost ten years. She's leaving. Don't you want to go see her off?" Sydney wanted to help Sean.
She believed Sean would be happy when her favorite person saw her off.
Sydney thought, 'Sean told Luke that she was leaving. Maybe she wasn't just trying to make Luke keep her. It was possible that she wanted Luke to go see her off.'
Anyway, Sydney wanted to try to help Sean.
It was just that Sydney underestimated Luke's ruthlessness toward Sean.
After Luke heard her words, his eyes darkened. "No. I don't even want to see her, let alone go see her off. Syd, if you're here just to tell me this and let me be nice to her, it's meaningless. I have things todo. I'm hanging up."
With that, he cruelly hung up the phone straight away.
Sydney looked at the phone screen that had switched back to the main menu and spread her hands resignedly.
The plan to help Sean failed.
'Luke really hates Sean very much.
'It looks like there's no way to make them reconcile.
'Maybe this is good. Sean has already aborted the child, and her last connection with Luke is broken. It's not necessarily a bad thing. At least Sean can leave without any reluctance.
'It's good for her to leave. Sean will not think of Luke or want to see him all the time abroad.
'Perhaps after a long time, Sean can gradually let go of her feelings for Luke and find another man of her choice abroad.'
Thinking of this, Sydney exhaled
lightly, put her cell phone down, and continued to immerse herself in her work until Julien's figure appeared at her office door in the afternoon She ended her work and stood up with a smile. "Why did you come here?"
