Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Sydney was in a bad mood after coming back last night and drank until it was midnight. She had not fallen asleep for long before she was awakened by her phone ringing. She paused, touched her phone from the bedside table, and answered it. "Hello?"

"Ms. Raines, I'm Sean Tillman."

Sydney became much more clear-headed when she heard the name and quickly remembered.

The person was Luke's secretary. Luke was worried that she had no one of her own after she joined Skylight, so he gave her his secretary.

"What is it?" Sydney asked while walking towards the bathroom.

Sean said, "The director has left on a business trip, and there are some urgent documents in the office that need you to handle. What time will you be coming in?"

Sydney guessed that the matter was urgent, so she looked at the time on her phone. "Around 8:30 a.m."

"Understood."

After hanging up the phone, Sydney washed her face with cold water and felt much better. However, she had drunk too much wine last night, so her head still hurt. Looking in the mirror, her complexion looked bad as well.

Once she washed up, she came out of the bedroom to see the messy living room. She pursed her lips tightly.

She must have been crazy to have drunk so much last night.

By the time Sydney drove into the company, it was exactly 8:30 a.m. Sean came in the moment she entered the office and sat down.

"Ms. Raines, these are the urgent documents that need to be signed."

"Alright."

Sydney was not only a new shareholder of Skylight but also the vice president. She had executive power and the right to speak up. Hence, she could handle many matters fully if the president was not around. She perused the documents and asked Sean, "Has the contract between Skylight and ZX been signed?"

When Luke sent her back last night, he mentioned that Skylight had received an overseas order and would hand over the goods to ZX Factory, a company very good at making overseas goods in Mediana. However, since they would have to compensate them if that overseas order was not shipped within the time frame, Sydney was very concerned.

"The contract was supposed to be signed at 9 a.m. today, but ZX backed out," Sean reported to Sydney helplessly. "ZX said that their old customers have increased their orders, so they can't don't need that order from us. They won't be signing the contract."

"They won't be signing?" Sydney frowned and pulled out her phone. "I'll call Luke and ask him to talk to them."

Sean hurriedly said, "You don't have to call him, Ms. Raines. Mr. Chase said he would go to ZX this morning to talk to them. But after taking a call, he told me that he had something to deal with in his own company, so he would deal with ZX's contract later."

At those words, Sydney stopped.

She was married to Julien for six years and was a full-time housewife. As such, she knew nothing about the business world.

After becoming a shareholder of Skylight, Sydney found out that the company was failing and the internal factions were complicated. She asked Luke to help her because she knew she could not cope with it. She was so focused on getting Luke's help that she almost forgot that Luke had his own company and a lot of things to deal with.

Seeing Sydney remaining silent, Sean spoke up," Should I leave, Ms. Raines?"

"Check the itinerary for ZX's boss today for me." Sydney took a deep breath and instructed Sean, "Tell me when you find out. I'll take care of these documents first."

Sean froze. "Didn't Mr. Chase say he would deal with it later?"

"He's very busy. I can't wait for him to handle everything." Sydney pursed her lips. "Besides, since I'm the one in this position, I have to learn what I don't know. Otherwise, I'll be scolded and asked to leave not long after."

Sean also often looked at the various gossip in the circle and knew that Sydney had been married to Julien for six years. Even when Julien attended various business receptions, he never brought Sydney along. As such, she was a blank slate when it came to business.

He did not have any hope for Sydney to take over Skylight and planned to return to Luke's company when Skylight closed down.

However, Sydney's words today made him revise his opinion of her.

"Okay, I'll leave you to your work, Ms. Raines. I'll go check it out." Sean quickly left the office, letting Sydney work by herself.

Since Sydney had only just dabbled in these matters, and there was quite a number of jargon in the documents, she took a long time reading them. She only managed to process a third of them by noon and continued working on them after hastily eating the lunch that Sean brought in.

Only at 2:30 p.m. did she finish handling all the

documents.

Sydney rubbed her sore neck and saw her phone on the table lit up, seemingly with a new WhatsApp message. She opened it to check.

[CaydenLowe: Sydney, the company has arranged a job for me, so I will be in Bourbon for a business trip for two months. I won't be able to reply to your messages quickly because of the time difference, but if you encounter anything urgent, call the number that I gave you.]

[SydneyRaines: Okay. Take care of yourself out there.]

Just as Sydney replied, a message from her bank card arrived at the top of the screen. Her eyes widened when she saw the amount.

90 million?

Did Luke sell the Azure Heart already?

At that moment, Layden sent another message. [I know that Skylight's situation isn't good and needs working capital, so you can use this money for now. Tell me if you need more.]

[SydneyRaines: I still have money on my card. If I really need help, I can go to Luke instead. I can't take your money.]

Layden replied very quickly. [I wouldn't be here today if you didn't help me six years ago. My money is your money.]

Seeing those words, Sydney's heart warmed, and she did not refuse anymore.

[SydneyRaines: Okay, I'll take this money as a loan you're giving to Skylight. When Skylight gets back up, I'll return the money back to you with interest.]

Just then, someone knocked on the office door.

"Come in."

Sean pushed the door in, holding a box of fruit in his arms. "Ms. Raines, Four Seasons Orchard delivered this."

He secretly glanced at Sydney. Seeing the faint smile on Sydney's face as if she was happy, he thought to himself, 'Does Ms. Raines know who sent this box of fruit?' Sydney lifted the lid and saw a box full of mangoes inside.

After a moment of surprise, she soon remembered that Luke often sent food to her. He also knew what she liked to eat, so she assumed that he bought it from the orchard. Sydney moved her eyes away from the box of mangoes and asked Sean, "Did you find out where the boss of ZX is?"

"Yes." Sean quickly replied. "Today is Friday, so President Smith of ZX has gone to Red Plum Resort at

2 p.m. to play cards with his friends. I've sent the address to your WhatsApp." "Okay." Sydney got up and put on her coat. "I'll give you a raise when Skylight's financial situation improves." "Thank you, Ms. Raines." Sean was delighted.

He remembered that there would be a rainstorm today and hurriedly chased after Sydney to remind her to take an umbrella. Nevertheless, she had already entered the elevator. The colleagues who loved to gossip also gathered around him.

A colleague asked anxiously, "Sean, didn't Ms. Raines say anything when she saw the box of mangoes?"

"She just opened the box and looked at it." Sean shrugged. He was puzzled as well. "Even the company janitors know about Mr. Flint and Ms. Raines's relationship. They are divorced, but why did Mr. Flint send fruit to Skylight?"

"Is Mr. Flint starting to regret the divorce?"

"No way! Everyone in the circle knows that Mr. Flint likes Ms. Madden. He even tried to propose to her with the Azure Heart!"

"Maybe Mr. Flint thinks they can work together as partners after the divorce?"

"Our company is going bankrupt, and no one is willing to buy it. How would Mr. Flint care about us?"
