My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 922 Mr. Chase's Test

'Why haven't I found until now that he has the ability to twist the truth?

'But he's really amusing in this way.'

As she was thinking, Sydney couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing her laughing, Julien asked, "What's up?"

'Why did she suddenly laugh?' he thought.

Sydney glanced at him coyly. "What do you think?"

"I don't know." Julien shook his head.

He really didn't know.

'She had been angry with me!

'Then she burst out laughing.

'Her attitude changed so fast that I couldn't find a clue about it!'

Seeing the man's confused face, Sydney snorted, "It's reasonable you don't know. I don't want to tell you because I want to leave you in suspense. Earlier, I asked you to put me down, but you didn't listen to me. This is the punishment, humph!"

After that, she turned her head to the window, so proud. Julien enjoyed seeing that so much.

If he were not driving and didn't have to pay attention to the traffic, he would have reached out to pinch her bulging face as she snorted.

'That would have felt so good!' Julien thought with a dark look in his eyes, pressing his cheek from inside his mouth with the tip of his tongue.

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, 40 minutes were gone, and the Chase family's villa was within striking distance.

As soon as Julien pulled the car into the area of the villa, Sydney saw that not far ahead, Mrs. Chase and Mr. Chase were standing at the villa entrance to welcome them.

Julien felt her heart warm and put a touched smile on her face. "I told Auntie on the phone that they didn't have to wait for us at the house gate, but they still came out to wait."

Julien also saw the middle-aged couple ahead. He said, "This is what our elders always do. They say yes, but will still do that to express their love and attention to the young people."

Only the closest relatives would do that.

Sydney nodded to agree, "Yes, Auntie and Uncle are really nice to me. Every time I come here, someone will welcome me at the house gate."

"Here, here!" Ahead of them, when she saw Sydney's red car coming over, Mrs. Chase waved her hand and pointed to the parking space on the side, signaling them to park the car there.

Mr. Chase was not as hospitable as Mrs. Chase was, but his attentive look at the car showed that he was very happy to see Sydney and Julien.

Julien parked the car under the guidance of Mrs. Chase. Then he unbuckled his safety belt and came out.

Sydney opened the car door and got out from the other side.

The moment she stepped out, Mrs. Chase, standing with Mr. Chase on the top step at the house gate, burst into a smile and opened her arms, running toward her. "Syd, I miss you so much. Let me give you a hug."

Sydney had been used to Mrs. Chase's hospitality. Seeing her running over, she also took a few steps forward and opened her arms to hug Mrs. Chase. "Auntie, I miss you, too!"

The young lady and the elder lady looked so close, while the young man and the elder man were looking at each other without words. The atmosphere was much quieter and much more embarrassing than the two ladies' happy one.

Anyway, the two men could not hug each other as the ladies could, could they?

More importantly, they were not yet so close to each other.

"Ahem, um…" But Mr. Chase was the host anyway. He knew he should speak first, not the guest.

Even if he really didn't know how to get along with Julien, he had to do something now.

He loosened his old, floral tie, cleared his throat, and reached out his hand to Julien. "Mr. Flint, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Nice to meet you."

Both of them were businessmen. Although the Chase family could never match the Flint family and they had not cooperated or had any exchanges with each other before, they would meet and greet each other on some important occasions.

So they knew each other, but had not seen each other for a long time since their last meeting.

Julien extended his hand and held Mr. Chase's hand. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Chase. Now we're not in the business circle, so you don't have to call me 'Mr. Flint.' Just call me 'Julien'. Now I'm just a kid in front of you two."

He spoke in a very low profile, absolutely the way a young man spoke to his elders. It was perfectly suitable.

Hearing that, Mr. Chase, who didn't know what attitude and status he should use to communicate with Julien, was relieved.

Julien was undoubtedly a mogul in the business circle, one they could not afford to offend. When they met the young man, they had to treat him with high respect.

But their meeting today was one for a young man and his elders, not a business meeting for two parties of different statuses.

But Julien did have a very high status, so they didn't dare to behave like his elders. Anyway, they had concerns. 'What if he doesn't like it? Then Sydney will be in trouble because of them, won't she?'

After pondering it over, Mr. Chase had decided to call Julien "Mr. Flint" when they met. He would test Julien's attitude and let him decide how they should get along.

No doubt, he had done the right thing. Julien had stressed that he was a kid in front of them, telling him how they should get along.

'Julien is a nice man!

'For Sydney's good, he could lower his status in front of my wife and me, which means he loves her sincerely.

'Then we can be a little relieved about him dating Sydney.

'Of course, just a little, not completely.

'If he wants to be fully approved by us, he'll have to face other tests!' Mr. Chase thought proudly.

But he smiled kindly on the surface and withdrew his hand. "since you said so, I won't stand on the ceremony. I'll call you 'Julien' in private."

"Okay, Uncle." Julien nodded. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Mr. Chase felt a little awkward about being addressed as "uncle". No, he was not used to it at all, but he was a little proud.

Mr. Flint had a very high status, but he called him uncle. He would feel proud if others learned about it.

Seeing her husband beaming, Mrs. Chase definitely knew what he was thinking. Inevitably, she rolled her eyes at him.

'What a worthless old man! Julien has just addressed him as "uncle", but he feels so proud!

'Before we came out, we had reached an agreement that we should never be so warm to Julien or at least give him the cold shoulder when we came out, because what Julien had done to Sydney was so unacceptable.

'He agreed at that time, but forgot it because of being addressed as "uncle".

'It seems I have to do the job alone!' she thought.

Holding Sydney's hand, she looked at Julien, the way she studied an object. She looked him up and down as if she wanted to find something disqualified from him.

Yet, after she observed him from head to toe, her face turned stiff.

She found nothing disqualified. In fact, Julien was absolutely perfect.

She had always been proud that her son Luke was handsome. Then she couldn't help but compare his handsome son with Julien. Unfortunately, she found that nothing of his son's, his face, figure, height, and others, could match Julien's.

Mrs. Chase was inevitably frustrated.

Julien clearly knew Mrs. Chase was studying him, so he stood straight, not trying to avoid her eyes but letting her observe him.
