Chapter 19 Darion Lives Next Door
The company had a rough time lately. Someone at that big company indeed talked to Nicole, but it wasn’t about investing.
They wanted to acquire.
That was a well–known company, but Nicole didn’t want to o

give up.
“What company? Is it reliable? Do you want me to check it out?” Synthia asked.
Synthia was worried about Nicole.
Nicole laughed, “Of course it’s reliable. It’s really a big company, but we’re still in talks, so I can’t say much yet. Once it’s settled, I’ll tell you. If it doesn’t work out, I can only rely on your support.”
“Sure,” Synthia agreed. “Let’s go.”
They got into the elevator.
Kyra bought a penthouse with only two units on each floor. Synthia and Nicole walked out of the elevator together.
“Well, the man you mentioned before…” Nicole was a bit drunk, and her steps were unsteady. Synthia immediately put her arm around Nicole’s waist to help her. Then Nicole wrapped her arm around Synthia’s shoulder with a smile, nuzzling Synthia’s chest lightly.
“Yeah, that cheating bastard, Darion Raymond,” Nicole mocked.

Synthia didn’t expect to hear Darion’s name. She was about to speak, but a cold voice came from behind.
“Dr. Duffy, so you’re just gossiping about others behind their backs?” Darion walked out of the elevator and saw Synthia.
He didn’t know Synthia also lived here.
He bought the property in Greystone Heights long ago. After marrying his ex–wife three years ago, he moved here from Raymond’s villa.
The apartment next door was vacant all along.
So, Darion didn’t expect to run into Synthia here.
Synthia was also startled.
Darion?
Why did he keep showing up everywhere?
“Sorry for talking about you behind your back,” Synthia apologized. “I’m sorry. But, Mr. Raymond, why are you here? You were indeed following me, weren’t you?”
Darion always made her uncomfortable.
So, she didn’t think much about why Darion would be here.
Following her?
Darion’s face darkened. “Dr. Duffy, I’m just going back to my place. Do I need to report to you?”

Darion doubted Synthia was actually the one following him. How dare she turn to blame him?
After hearing this, Synthia was very confused.
His place?
After getting married, Darion went abroad. And when he came back, he never returned to the Raymond’s villa. So, Darion actually lived
here?
What a coincidence!
However, Darion said it was his place, not his home. Maybe it was more like a house where he was hiding his mistress.
“Don’t tell me it’s this one?” Synthia pointed at the house next door.
This was too ridiculous.
Darion glared at her and didn’t explain anything. He walked forward and pressed his finger on the smart lock.
“Fingerprint unlocked successfully. Welcome home!”
A mechanical sound started, and the heavy black door opened. The room brightened with a dazzling white light.
Synthia was shocked.
Darion lived next door!
Darion looked at Synthia expressionlessly, imitating Synthia’s tone to speak sarcastically, “Dr. Duffy, now you can tell me, why are you here? You were indeed following me, weren’t you?”
Synthia was extremely embarrassed.
She took a deep breath, turned, and pressed her finger on the smart lock. There was another mechanical voice.
“Welcome home,”
“Dr. Dully, don’t tell me you’re not trying to get my attention.” Darion’s eyes were intense. He completely agreed with Eugene’s speculation.
now.
If she was not interested in him, why would she know everything about him?
She even knew his address.
Synthia opened her mouth, trying to explain, but she knew her words were not convincing at this moment. She really didn’t expect Darion to live here. It was too coincidental.
Finally. Synthia just waved her hand. “I’ll move tomorrow.”
Southdale was such a big city, and she would definitely find a place far from Darion.
“Hey, honey, why is there such a handsome guy?” Nicole sobered up a bit. After seeing Darion, she was surprised. “Oh, sweet, you didn’t lie to me. So, you really don’t like cute young guys. You prefer the cool and hot types. I get it! I’ll call them for you! Let’s go to the bar for some fun, my treat!”
Synthia was speechless.
And Darion was stunned.
So, this woman’s friend thought he was an escort?

Or did it mean her private life was so promiscuous? She actually hired
escorts?
“Fun?” Darion sneered. “Dr. Dully, I didn’t expect your private life to be so promiscuous.”
After speaking. he looked at Nicole. “Is this your friend? Did you…change a partner?”
After hearing Nicole’s voice, Darion was sure that she wasn’t the one Synthia wanted to marry last time.
But Synthia took her back and was going to spend the night with her.
That meant Synthia might not only be a lesbian, but also be dating two women at the same time?
Thinking this might be true, Darion’s face turned completely dark.
“Mr. Raymond, it’s not your business,” Synthia said coldly.
Changing a partner? What did he mean?
It had nothing to do with him.
“Mr. Raymond?” Hearing this, Nicole’s expression turned angry immediately. “Sweet, he’s the jerk you mentioned? Oh, I’ll cut him down! Where is my knife? I’ll chop this jerk today!”
Nicole was drunk and started talking nonsense.
Synthia was embarrassed.
“I’m sorry.” Synthia took a deep breath and immediately covered Nicole’s mouth. “Mr. Raymond, my friend was drunk. I’ll apologize on her behalf.”
Chapter
After saying this, Synthia immediately dragged Nicole into the house.
After the door closed, Nicole still wanted to grab a knife.
Synthia tried hard to get Nicole to sleep, then she finally let out a sigh of relief. She picked up her phone and called Kyra.
The phone rang twice before it was answered.
“Kyra, I have a question.” Synthia pressed her temples, took a glass of water, and sat down on the couch.
Hearing this, Kyra was a bit nervous. “What’s up? I’m really busy now. There is an important project, and I have to follow it closely.”
Kyra was afraid that Synthia might find Wilson, so she was calling to ask for it.
“Well…” Synthia said. “Do you know Darion lives next door to me? Nicole was drunk, and I brought her back just now, but I ran into Darion.”
Kyra fell silent.
She knew it
That was why she deliberately gave this penthouse to Synthia.
But she couldn’t let Synthia know.
Kyra thought they wouldn’t meet each other for a while, even if they lived next door. But she didn’t expect that Synthia would run into. Darion on her first day living there. It was too coincidental.
“I don’t know,” Kyra said. “A business friend gave this house to me when Greystone Heights was open for sale. It’s been vacant since I got
- it. Nobody lived there before you moved out of the Raymond’s villa.”
