My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 287 Stayed Through the Night

Sydney's frown deepened.

What did he sound like a husband questioning his wife?

Did he not get his identity right?

"Where did I go with Hunter has nothing to do with you. Why are you overstepping your boundaries?" Sydney pursed her lips and turned around.

Julien pulled her arm to stop her. "I'm just worried. It's so late and..."

"I don’t need your worry!" Sydney withdrew her arm and stared at Julien with a cold gaze. "You never worried about me back then, so you don't have to now either.

President Flint, it's late. Please go back."

After saying that, she turned around and walked toward the elevator. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Julien did not stop her, and he just silently stared at her silhouette as she disappeared into the building.

Back in her apartment, Sydney took off her shoes and put her bag aside before stepping into the bathroom.

After taking a quick shower, she headed straight to bed.

She was already in bed around 10 PM, but Hunter called her out and now she was so sleepy that she could not even open her eyes.

Sydney yawned and walked toward the window to draw her curtains.

Suddenly, she looked downstairs and saw that Julien's car was still parked by the side.

Julien was still here.

Could he be planning something?

Sydney sneered and drew her curtains before returning to bed.

Downstairs, Julien kept looking at a certain someone’s window.

When he saw the lights go off, he knew that she had already gone to bed.

Suddenly, Julien's phone rang.

He glanced at it and saw that it was Zach who called.

"What is it?" Julien put it on speaker and placed the phone on the passenger seat. He then took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from the glove compartment.

Zach said, "It's nothing serious. The hospital informed me that Lyra Madden

has woken up.'

Julien nodded and did not seem to have a reaction. He took out a cigarette and lit it up.

Zach did not comment on his attitude. He continued, "There's something else. Clarice Madden is found."

"What?" Julien paused and narrowed his eyes. "Clarice Madden?"

"Yes.” Zach nodded.

Julien frowned “Is it really Clarice Madden?"

"Most likely. Clarice found Brandon

Madden and his wife with her daughter necklace. They did a paternity test and the results are still pending. However, Clarice is still with them, so it's most likely real," Zach explained.

Julien went deep in thought.

Daughter necklace...

Was the daughter necklace not with Sydney? How did it end up in someone else's hand?

Could it be a fake one?

No. Brandon Madden and his wife could definitely recognize a fake necklace. After all, it was a necklace that they gave to their daughter, and no one would be more familiar with it than the both of them.

Moreover, this necklace was specially made, and it was the one and only in the world. There were no photos of it on the Internet. Even if there was, it was only Mrs. Madden's mother necklace.

Even though the daughter necklace looked very similar to the mother’s one, there were still some differences between them, and it would be hard to forge one.

The only explanation for this was that Clarice Madden was related to Sydney.

Maybe Sydney gave the necklace to Clarice and told her to look for Brandon.

Why did Sydney do that?

Julien raised his head once more and looked at the darkroom upstairs, his eyebrows in a tight furrow.

"President Flint? President Flint?" When Zach did not hear his reply, he called again.

Julien came back to his senses. * Investigate Clarice's background and find out if she had contact with Sydney."

He was afraid that Sydney might have gotten pranked.

If Clarice had another identity, then it would be dangerous to Sydney.

"Yes." Zach was curious why Julien tied both Clarice Madden and Sydney together, but he did not question him and did as he was told.

When the call ended, Julien put his arm on his car window and flicked the ashes off his cigarette. He continued staring at Sydney's unit.

He stayed there for the entire night.

The next morning, Sydney got ready and was about to head to Skylight Corporation.

Once she opened the door, she saw Julien standing by the side.

Julien was still in his suit from yesterday, and he looked tired with the dark circles under his eyes. Sydney knew that he did not leave last night.

"You stayed here the entire night?" Sydney asked with a frown.

Julien's eyes glimmered. "Did you pay attention to me?"

Otherwise, how would she know that he stayed the entire night?

Sydney pursed her lips. “You’re just overthinking. I didn't pay attention to you."

When Sydney denied it, Julien’s eyes darkened but he was not disappointed.

Since she noticed that he stayed the night, then she must have paid attention to him.

He was elated.

"Breakfast." Julien stretched out his hand and handed a paper bag to Sydney. He was afraid that she might reject it like she did the last time, so he quickly explained," Don’t worry. This isn’t the same as those from last time. I queued up and bought this from a nearby restaurant." "You queued up yourself?" Sydney looked at him in surprise.

Julien nodded. "Yes."

Sydney said nothing.

She heard about the nearby restaurant that he was talking about. The food there was great and she had also tried it before. However, it was rare for her to get it because there was always a long queue.

She did not expect a man like Julien Flint to queue up himself and buy her breakfast. After all, he was raised in a wealthy family, and whenever he wanted something, all he had to do was give out orders.

When Sydney imagined him queuing up with his suit, standing among old ladies while they fought for breakfast, Sydney laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Julien looked at her with bewilderment.

Sydney waved her hand. "Nothing. You can have breakfast yourself. I'm not hungry."

Right after she said that, her stomach grumbled in protest.

Julien looked toward her abdomen and his eyes became incredibly gentle. He quickly withdrew his gaze to avoid her from noticing.

"You’re hungry,” Julien said.

Sydney's face turned red, and her eyes were filled with embarrassment. "No, I'm not."

"Your stomach is making noise," Julien replied.

Sydney clenched her fist and said, "You heard it wrongly.

She then walked past him toward the elevator.

Julien looked at her stubbornness and felt deeply amused. He quickly caught up to her and walked next to her. "Alright, I heard it wrongly. Just have some. I never bought anyone a breakfast like this before.'

The elevator reached.

Sydney went in, and there was an old couple inside. They had sports outfits on, and they must be heading to the park to exercise.

Sydney smiled at them and withdrew her smile when she looked at Julien. “You don’t have to tell me that. I don’t care. I won’t accept the breakfast that you buy."

When Julien heard that, his heart sank and he lowered his gaze. His surrounding aura became rather depressing.

The old couple at the side could not stay still any longer. One of them asked, "Girl, did you fight with your boyfriend?"

When Julien heard the word "boyfriend", his eyes glimmered. He gave the old couple an apologetic nod, indicating that he was sorry to bother them.

His actions were admitting that he was Sydney's boyfriend.

Sydney was stunned.

How could this man be so shameless?

When Sydney wanted to explain that he was not her boyfriend, the old lady laughed and said, "Girl, I heard your conversation. You can't do that to him."
