Chapter 878 Caybel Is Injured
Chapter 878 Caybel Is Injured
A little unhappy with his expression, Julien frowned and said, "What? Am I afraid he'll come to me?"
"No, no, no, I don't mean that." Seeing that Julien misunderstood him, Terrell immediately shook his head and explained, "I mean Mr. Sullivan's way of doing things is a little unacceptable, so you'll have to be careful then, Mr. Flint."
Hearing that, Sydney said seriously, "What do you mean? Does he want to use tricks?"
Julien gazed at Terrell, waiting for an answer.
Terrell pushed up his glasses and answered, "Mr. Sullivan has some shady means, Mr. Flint. I don't know if he dares to use them on you, but I know one thing. In order to achieve his goals, he has harmed other families quite a few times. Some time ago, I got a legal case and paid a special visit to Jackal City. I heard the Sullivan family and the Bennet family struggling against each other." Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"The Bennet family?" Hearing the three words, Sydney stood straight and asked, "What's wrong with the Bennet family?"
"The Bennet family is Cay's family!" she thought.
No matter what kind of personality he had now, he was Cay.
So she would inevitably care more about the things about Cayden.
Seeing that Sydney cared so much about the Bennet family, Julien definitely knew why and pursed his lips. Although he was a little unhappy, he didn't say anything or was as jealous as he usually was.
Why? He had probably borne in mind what Sydney had just told him, and now he felt safer about their relationship.
So he wouldn't be as jealous as before.
Terrell had no idea about Sydney's relationship with Cayden. Although he was somewhat curious why Sydney cared so much about the Bennet family, he answered honestly, "Some time ago, the new head of the Bennet family had his eye on a piece of land in Jackal City, and so did Mr. Sullivan of the Sullivan family. They bid for it, and neither gave in. Yet, because of having more connections than Mr. Bennet, Mr. Sullivan got the bid for the land in the end. But Mr. Bennet didn't want to accept the failure. He resorted to some way, and the land owner tore up the land transfer contract that he was going to sign with Mr. Sullivan and transferred the land to the Bennet family. Mr. Sullivan went furious, and Mr. Bennet got injured the next day."
"What?" Sydney sprang up and turned pale. "Cay is injured?"
"Cay?" Terrell tilted his head in confusion.
Sydney moved her red lips and answered a little hoarsely, "Cay is Caybel Bennet, the new head of the Bennet family and my brother."
"I see." Terrell saw the light and nodded.
Julien had just been unhappy with Sydney's reaction to Cayden's injury.
After all, she cared about Cayden so much. In fact, she cared more about him than when she heard about the Bennet family just now. Although Julien felt a little safe and would not be so jealous, he was unhappy about it.
But when he heard her say he was her brother, he arched his eyebrows and didn't seem to feel so unhappy.
After all, he was just her brother.
A saying online had it that a brother would always be a brother.
Even if he had some abilities, so what? Since Leaf took him as her brother, Cayden would only be her brother in this life. He would never reach beyond it!
He was her brother, then why bother?
Did he have to envy his brother-in-law?
The further he thought, the happier Julien was. He couldn’t help but raise his thin lips, looking quite happy.
Paying no attention to the man's reaction, Sydney was now only thinking about Cayden's injury.
Clenching her fists, she looked at Terrell and asked anxiously, "Mr. West, is it true Cay is injured?"
She asked worriedly, trying to get a sure answer.
Terrell shook his head and said, "This is just what I heard about. My status is low. How could I meet the head of the Bennet family? But this story is widely known in the social circles of Jackal City, and they all say the same thing, so this is probably true."
"True?" Sydney thought.
She bit her lips and looked at Julien, wishing to get some comfort from him.
But Julien shrugged and said in a sorry tone, "I haven't paid attention to Jackal City recently. Yet, the news is spread so widely, and a lawyer has heard about it. Then that is probably true. The Bennet and Sullivan families have high status, and no one dares to spread rumors."
No one could afford to spread a big family's rumors.
Having also thought of it, Sydney instantly lost all her hope, shaking and sitting back on the sofa like a pile of mud.
Julien held her waist and frowned. "Don't be like that. Cayden is just injured, not dead. Don't worry."
Sydney rubbed her temples. "I know, but how could I not be worried? Cayden is like a brother to me. And he has suffered a lot so far. I…"
"Today's Cayden is not the same as the one I knew," Julien interrupted and reminded her.
He was telling her that today's Cayden was a stranger with an alternate personality, not the one with the core personality she had once known.
The body had not changed, but the mind in it was different. Then the man was basically a different person.
That was to say, the injured was another person, not the Cayden she cared about, so she didn't have to be so worried.
"I know what you mean, but that body belongs to Cay, my…"
"If Cayden has been swallowed by today's Caybel or has handed his own body to the guy out of his own will, and he's unwilling to wake up again, then this body will always be Caybel's. There won't be Cayden anymore in the world in the future. Then the one you care about now is Caybel, not Cayden."
Julien looked at her and said, "Even if Cayden comes back in the future, that is something to happen in the future. The man today is not Cayden, but Caybel. You don't have to care about a stranger."
Sydney opened her mouth a couple of times, but didn't utter a word, simply because Julien was right.
The man in that body was Caybel with an alternate personality, not her Cay.
Caybel was not her brother, but a stranger, one she didn't feel she liked.
She really didn't have to be so nervous or caring.
She was thinking like that, but she was a little worried.
After taking a deep breath, she bit her lips and asked, "Cay really can't wake up?" She seemed to be asking herself, but it also seemed like a question for the man beside her.
Julien pondered it over and answered, "Don't know. We'll see if he is willing to take back his own body and if he is stronger than Caybel. If he's weak, then that's impossible."
"Can't we get a doctor to wake up Cay?" Sydney looked up at the man and asked with anticipation.
Julien shook his head slightly. "No idea. I asked Micah previously. He's a hypnotist. He knows so much about this. He told me that since Cayden had been suppressed by the alternate personality, either his core personality was weaker than the alternate one, or he himself didn't want to face the world, willing to give up control of the body, so the chance of waking him using external factors was not high."
He was not lying to her.
He really didn't want Cayden to control the body again. Anyway, Cayden's feelings for Leaf were no less than Luke's, and they were crazier and more dangerous.
In order to get Leaf, Cayden said he loved her, but he also poisoned her, so he was a bomb that was likely to explode anytime.
But Leaf was always softhearted to Cayden. She forgave him even after he poisoned her. Thus, if he came back, Leaf would not be on guard against him.
In a word, if he came back, Cayden would always follow Leaf like a shadow. He, Julien, was worried Cayden would hurt Leaf again. No doubt, Cayden was crazy enough to do something like that.
