My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 934 An Addictive Man

Luke fell wordless, as he couldn't figure out a good solution.

After all, it was Dallin, the head of the Sullivan family, who was making trouble for Skylight Corporation.

Even Chase Corporation couldn't afford to offend the Sullivan family, let alone Skylight Corporation.

Otherwise, Luke would have put pressure on Dallin in the name of the Chase family, forcing him to return the parts.

But there was still one person who could require Dallin to give the parts back to Sydney. He was Julien.

However, Julien was Luke's rival in love as well as the man who Luke hated the most.

So, Luke was unwilling to plead for Julien's help.

He couldn't demean himself by begging for Julien’s help.

At the same time, Luke couldn't advise Sydney to turn to Julien.

Although they were boyfriend and girlfriend and it was normal for Sydney to ask Julien for help, Luke knew well that Sydney wouldn't want to rely on Julien to accomplish her own goal.

Otherwise, she would have turned to Julien the moment the incident happened. She wouldn’t still try to find a solution with Luke.

As her friend, Luke respected her choice. Since she didn't want Julien's help, he wouldn't give her such a suggestion.

Besides, he also had his own selfish aim, not talking her into seeking Julien's help. If he asked her to discuss the incident with Julien, it meant that he admitted that he was not as good and powerful as Julien in all aspects.

Though he knew his idea was despicable, he didn't intend it. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

He loved Sydney for more than ten years. He had fallen in love with her since he was a teenager, much earlier than Julien.

But Julien grabbed Sydney from him twice.

Although he gave up and wished them happiness, he still felt upset.

All in all, he didn't hope Julien to interfere in this matter.

After Luke hesitated for a while, he didn't suggest that Sydney ask Julien for help. He just advised, "Syd, how about we buy a batch of parts from our counterparts? Let’s solve the problem and help Skylight Corporation run normally first. We can delay getting even with Dallin. What do you think of it?"

Sydney sighed. "Do you think I haven't thought of this method? Of course I’ve thought about it, but it is useless. The parts of our counterparts will be engraved with their logos. If we buy their parts, we have to ask a factory to erase the logos and engrave the parts with our logo. This is undoubtedly a big and laborious project, and it takes at least five days to complete the project. So, when the logos are erased, our company will have already plunged into chaos. Though it is possible to buy those parts without logos, there are only a small number of such parts, and they can’t meet our needs. Currently, every logo is engraved when it is produced."

She had inspected how Perfect Parts produced parts, so she knew clearly when the logo was engraved.

After all, a logo represented a company, and people could see which company the parts belonged to at a glance.

Therefore, engraving parts with a logo was a very rigorous thing. It must be treated seriously, and the parts couldn’t be left unengraved.

Listening to Sydney's words, Luke scratched his head, feeling extremely fretful. "Since no method will work well, what can we do next? Should we take on Dallin and grab the parts back? But the chance of success..."

Luke didn't point out the slim chance of success, as it would hurt Sydney very much.

It was impossible for Skylight Corporation to take on Dallin and get back the parts now.

"How about asking Hunter to help you?" Luke smiled and provided another suggestion.

Hunter was an official. If he helped Sydney, Dallin was unlikely to refuse him.

Dallin was a native of Jackal City. When he came to Port City to harm the interests of Skylight Corporation, a key taxpayer of the city, he was provoking the local government.

The biggest official family in Port City was the Cohen family, so it was probable that the Cohen family would defend the interests of Skylight Corporation.

However, Sydney also shook her head. "I thought about it, too, but I dismissed it. Don't forget that Hunter and Julien are friends. If I ask Hunter for help, Julien will definitely know about it. What will Julien think then? He will think that I would rather turn to another man than him and that I don't view him as my boyfriend. He and I will have disagreements then. The disagreements will even be caused by me. I don't hope such a thing to happen."

A romantic relationship must be dealt with carefully.

In many cases, lovers were in a good relationship. But if either of them made a wrong decision, something unexpected would probably happen to their love.

So, it was best to think twice when making a decision. Never do what one shouldn't do.

Moreover, Sydney had turned to Hunter several times, and she hadn’t repaid all his kindness.

Hearing Sydney's words, Luke fell silent.

He didn't expect Sydney not to seek Hunter’s help because she worried that Julien would become sad.

Luke could feel how much she cared about Julien.

Deeply hurt, Luke couldn't help tightening his grip on the phone and giving a bitter smile. "I really doubt whether Julien is an addictive man."

"Huh?" Startled, Sydney couldn’t understand why he made such a comment about Julien.

Luke leaned back in the chair, rested his head on the headrest, and closed his eyes slightly to conceal his sorrow. "If Julien wasn't an addictive man, how could you be so infatuated with him? When I went home this morning and asked my parents about yesterday’s situation, even they were very satisfied with Julien. They lavished praise on Julien while chatting with me, and they told me that Julien was more excellent than me in every aspect. I was pissed off. It’s enough that Julien has allured you. But why do even my parents like him so much? It’s I who am their son."

Listening to his complaint, Sydney covered her lips and laughed wildly. "Well, Luke, don't feel jealous. Your parents like Julien because he has sent them gifts to their liking. So..."

"I see." Even if Sydney didn't finish speaking, Luke understood her meaning.

Julien was very rich, so he could give Luke's parents more expensive gifts.

Anyway, it was a little difficult for Luke to purchase the gifts that his parents wanted.

"Well, I've already been defeated by Julien in front of you. I can accept that I lose again in front of my parents while competing with him." He waved his hand, went on with the previous topic and said seriously, "Syd, how about we take out a loan from the bank to solve the problem?"

"Do you mean giving up that batch of parts?" Sydney’s face hardened.

Luke nodded. "Yes. If we can't get them back, we can only give them up. But if you give them up, you won’t afford a new batch of parts. Thus, you can only take out a loan to pull through and wait for the machines from Kingthene to arrive. Then we can produce parts by ourselves, and we don’t have to cooperate with others and worry about these things anymore. What’s your opinion?”
