Once a Doormat, Now Untouchable

Chapter 652

‘Talk about choosing loyalty to a woman over a brother.’ Still, Raymond was not surprised that Julian had sold him out so completely.

He knew how close Sydney and Tiffany were. He dropped his usual careless attitude and chose his words with care. "Don't worry. This time my sister and the family won't interfere.”

He assumed Sydney feared that the Hutton family might step in again and embarrass Tiffany.

Sydney frowned. "That's not what I meant. What I'm saying is this. Whether Tiff chooses to get back together with you or not, and no matter how your relationship turns out later, your resignation has nothing to do with her. Raymond, that was your decision. It has nothing to do with Tiff."

Her voice was quiet but clear. The words fell with such plain certainty that Raymond froze.

She was not the first person to tell him this. Yet hearing it from her made him oddly happy. A smile tugged at his lips. “Alright. Thanks for worrying about my love life."

Sydney sighed in resignation. "Sure. Whatever you say."
