Chapter 169 Jimmyâs Thoughts Juliet paid no heed to Syriaâs words. She felt Sylviaâs words were merely excuses. If it truly didnât matter, why didnât she tease someone else? Why single out Miles?
âAs for cooperation, letâs discuss it when the time comes. Ampway, your brother has already gone to play golf.â
There was no use in trying to stop it; she had to accept the inevitable outcome Sylvia sighed, regretting she had foreseen the She wouldnât have made that joke if she knew it would come to this.
Sylvia continued to work on documents, when suddenly her phone rang. Glancing at it, she found it was an unfamiliar number.
Answering the call, Sylvia heard a childâs woce, crisp and clear, Instinctively, she thought of Jimmyâs cherubic face.
âBeautiful lady, do you have time to come out and play with me? My dad is playing gold, and they wonât let me join. They say Iâm no good Iâm so bored.â
It seemed Jimmy had taken Milesâs phone. Otherwise, Sylvia wouldnât have received this call.
Surprisingly, Miles had taken jimmy along for golf this time.
âAlright, where are you? Shall come over? Then we can go play together.â
Sylvia suddenly had a good idea. She needed to see what Brace had been up to. It was best not to embarrass him.
Also, Jimmyâs call gave her a reason to go and check the situation. And it was perfectly legitimate.
Upon hearing that Sylvia would come to see him, Jimmy was delighted and quickly gave Sylvia the address. Sylvia asked Jimmy to wait; she would be there soon.
After hanging up, she noticed Juliet staring at her with a probing look.
âWhatâs with that expression? What are you thinking?â
âIâm thinking, is there something wrong with this child? Look, he has so many people to choose from, yet he chooses only you. Itâs suspicious. And donât you think this child has some uteromotive toward you?â
Being unexpectedly kind to a stranger, and not worrying at all that his father might be taken away by someone elseâJuliet had never seen such a mature child. So, there could only beone reason:
Jimmy wanted Syria to be his stepmother.
âCould it be that this child wants you to be his stepmother?â
Realizing this, Juliet furrowed her brows and grabbed Sylviaâs wrist, preventing ber from leaving âNo, you canât go now. You need to finish your work first. This child seems scheming. How can such a young child have such malicious thoughts of wanting you to be his stepmother?â
Jullerâs words amused and puzzled Sylla. If she were to become a stepmother, she would be a second wife. Looking at it this way, ww, there wasnât much difference between her and Miles. Besides, she just wanted to see Bruce Of course, she couldnât tell Jubet about going to see Bruce. Knowing Juliet, she would im âAlright, maybe the child is just bored why donât you go? If you donât want to, Iâll go alone.â
Sylvia said so. What more could juliet say? She hutted and sat down nearby.
diately inform Brace. So, she would keep this to herself.
âIâm not going If I do, who willhandle the companyâs affairs? You go, and let me know the news as soon as possible. Also, about the matter between your brother and Miles, tel me quietly.â
Sylvia found it amusing, Juliet wanted to come along, she could have just said so. But jullie refused.
Sylvia couldnât force her, so she packed her things and left.
When Sylvia arrived at the golf course, Bruce and Miles were still playing. Jimmy sat aside, kicking his legs against the bench out of boredom.
Suddenly, Jimmy sensed something amiss and looked up, sporting Sylvia, Excitedly, he stood up and waved vigorously âBeautiful sister!â
The childâs voice was sharp. Soon, both men noticed Sylvia approaching.
Bruce was surprised for a moment, then turned to Miles, who also seemed astonished. They hadnât expected Sylviato come âthought you brought Sylvia over here. I thought you couldnât handle losing and wanted Syla to come over.â
Miles felt helpless. He had came to meet Bruce today to discuss cooperation between their companies. But Bruce had no intention of discussing it; instead, he dragged him here to play gold Midway through the game, Jimmy came over. The boy then played with his phone, probably calling Sylvia Miles felt helpless at the thought. But he didnât know what to say. âForget it. Iâm not unreasonable. Since weâre all here, letâs take a break and sit down. Letâs not play anymore What do you think?â
Bruce said this because he was wary of fimmyâs cunning nature. This little boy was very scheming, if he was plotting something, like having Sylvia become his stepmother, it wouldnât be good. So now, he had to watch not only the adults but also the child it was exhausting Aner Bruce finished speaking, he didnât care whether Miles agreed or not. He just put his things aside and walked toward Sylvia âWhy are you here? Whoâs handling things at the company?
âthe company, handling ewrything. trust him. Donât you?
Dvered an eyebrow. If Juliet was there, there was indeed nothing to worry about. But would jullet really stay at the company and not go anywhere? Especially Sylvia openly âSince youâve arranged everything, I wonât say more. But why did you come?
âItâs nothing just came to play with you guys, Whatâs wrong? Donât you welcome me?!

Jimmy took the chocolate, delighted, and began to enjoy with relish
