My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 1115 Why Did You Choose Him as Your Mentor?



Sighing, Sydney waved her hand. "Forget it. Let's eat first. I'm starving."

"Then after eating, you have to let me continue." Julien cupped Sydney's face in his hands and looked at her, afraid she would back out.

Sydney raised her eyelids and said resignedly, "Got it."

This time she had to give in. After all, she said the wrong thing.

If she didn't agree, Julien would keep pestering her until she compromised.

So, it was better to agree.

Anyway, after being with him for so long, she was not as shy as in the beginning.

She could already calmly agree to have sex with Julien.

Julien was really good in bed. Although he always made her feel sore all over, she enjoyed making love to him so much that she was tempted every time Julien wanted to sleep with her.

'Ah, that's so embarrassing!

'I can't think about it anymore.'

Sydney's face was red.

Julien, who was holding her face, could feel it was burning.

After he let go of her, he saw her scarlet face and was stunned for a few seconds. "What were you thinking about? Why are you blushing like that?"

Sydney couldn't tell Julien what she had just thought about. Otherwise, Julien would be very proud of himself.

She lowered her head, turned around quickly, pulled out a chair, and sat down. "Nothing. Eat your meal. Why do you have so many questions?" Sydney tried her best to hide it and didn't want to tell Julien what she had just thought.

Yet Julien knew from her red face that she must have thought about sex.

He just didn't know the details.

Thinking about it, Julien let out a low laugh, walked over to the seat opposite Sydney, and sat down.

Sydney listened to Julien's laughter, wondering if he had realized something. She picked up her fork, trying to hide her embarrassment by eating. When Julien saw this, his smile deepened.

He was about to say something when his cell phone rang.

Julien frowned, clearly not happy that someone was calling at this time.

But in the end, he put down his fork and picked up his cell phone.

After seeing the caller ID, he instantly narrowed his eyes, and his aura became much more oppressive all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Sydney ignored her embarrassment, stopped eating, and asked with concern, "Who's calling? Is something wrong?"

She thought, 'If not, why does he look so scary?'

Julien shook his head slightly. "No. Look at the caller ID."

Saying that, he handed his cell phone to Sydney.

Seeing that the caller was Mr. McDaniel, Sydney immediately understood why Julien was reacting like that.

It turned out the call was from Erin's grandfather.

"I guess Mr. McDaniel is calling for what happened on the Internet. Just answer it. I want to hear what he will say." Sydney put down her fork, leaned back on her chair, and looked at Julien.

Julien glanced at her and frowned slightly as if hesitating whether to let her hear the upcoming conversation.

After all, Julien didn't know if Mr. McDaniel would repeat what he had said in the company today on the phone.

If Sydney heard it...

"Pick it up." Seeing that Julien didn't respond, Sydney urged again, "If you don't pick up the phone and he hangs up, do you want to call back? If you do so, he will definitely think that you are not that angry with them about this matter."

This was true.

Ignoring Mr. McDaniel and not contacting him was the only way to let him know that Julien was really angry.

If Julien took the initiative to contact Mr. McDaniel, it would mean that Julien wanted to reconcile with him.

In that case, Mr. McDaniel would absolutely think more highly of himself from now on.

"Then I won't answer it." Julien retrieved his cell phone and directly hung it up. "There's no need to listen to some words that will make you upset."

"So, you think Mr. McDaniel will surely say bad things about me?" Sydney raised an eyebrow.

Julien put the phone aside. "He spoils Erin. This time it was Erin who schemed against you. Even if Mr. McDaniel knows that it was Erin's fault, he won't blame his granddaughter. He'll only blame you for exposing his granddaughter, so I'm sure that he'll discredit you on the phone."

"Looks like you know Mr. McDaniel pretty well," Sydney smiled.

Julien lowered his eyes. "Not until today."

He meant it when he said that.

Before today, he did think his mentor was a kind old man.

But after Mr. McDaniel said those words to him in the company today and what happened on the Internet, Julien realized that he had been wrong about his mentor, the real Mr. McDaniel was far worse than he had thought.

From this, it could be seen that Julien used to know too little about Mr. McDaniel.

So he was very disappointed by the truth about Mr. McDaniel.

"Speaking of which." Sydney leaned forward, put her elbows on the table, and rested her face in her palms. She looked at Julien and said, "Why did you let Mr. McDaniel be your mentor? You can see Mr. McDaniel is not an upright person from how he dotes on his granddaughter. How could you choose such a person as your mentor? I really can't figure out what you were thinking at that time."

"If I could travel more than ten years back, I certainly wouldn't choose him as my mentor again." Julien lowered his eyes and said calmly, "I went to university at fifteen for a doctor's degree."

He said it lightly, but Sydney was amazed and felt a lot of pressure.

A doctor's degree...

She only had a bachelor's degree, and it took her a lot of efforts. On the other hand, Julien actually had multiple doctor's degrees. This gap in their educational background was indeed huge. Sydney smiled wryly, envying Julien's intelligence. "And then?"

"After entering university, because I was going to take over the Flint Corporation, I mastered economics. I went to the economics faculty, trying to find an economics professor as my mentor. At that time, there were two top economics professors in the economics faculty. One is Stanley Dodson, and the other is Mr. McDaniel. I intended to choose Mr. Dodson rather than Mr. McDaniel."

"Then why did you choose Mr. McDaniel in the end? It's supposed to be a two-way street between mentors and students." Sydney blinked in curiosity.

Julien took a sip of the freshly poured red wine. "Indeed. I had a talk with Mr. Dodson, and we were satisfied with each other. Mr. Dodson was even ready to accept me as his last student, and he chose a date to throw a party for me, but the day before it, something suddenly happened to him."

Sydney's body shook. "What happened?"

"When Mr. Dodson was going back to his office to get some documents, he accidentally stepped on a banana peel and fell. He hit his head on the ground and died on the spot, so I failed to be his student. After that, I chose Mr. McDaniel as my mentor. Even though he wasn't my preferred mentor in the beginning, he was a very good and responsible mentor for me. He helped me get my PhD in economics, so I always respected him."
