My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 51 Why Are You So Attentive to Your Ex-Sister-In-Law? Do You Have a Crush on Her?

The parents were outraged to the point of speechlessness.

"I won! I won!” Jayden ran toward Sydney, still panting, but there was unconcealed excitement and joy in his tone. "I slammed that ball in! Did you see it? Did you take a picture?" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"I didn't see it." Sydney pointed behind her. "I was playing cards while you were playing basketball."

The smile on Jayden's face froze.

Damn it!

He thought that Sydney was watching him outside the court, so he was fully immersed in the game because he was afraid that she would see him make mistakes. However, she had been playing cards with others?"

"Y-You..." Jayden was furious. "How could you not watch me?"

"If you lose, it'll be your brother and you who get humiliated, not me. Why should I watch? Alright, get out of my way. I'll help you sign the contract." Sydney pushed Jayden away and walked toward the coach.

She was courteous when talking to the coach, “Sorry for taking up your time."

Hunter took a photo of Jayden's shocked expression and came over to drape an arm around his shoulder. "I heard that when Sydney was in the Flint family, you bullied her every day. How the tables turn. How does it feel to be bullied by her instead?"

"I'm a man. I won’t bicker with her!” Jayden snorted. Then, he remembered something and asked Hunter with a frown, "I heard that she's very bad at cards and lost a lot of money when she played at Red Plum Villa before. Hunter, did she lose badly against those parents as well?"

"Not really."

"That’s good." Jayden sighed in relief. "She looks the same as always, so I guess she got a good hand this time and won a few rounds."

"She didn’t just have a good hand. She got the best hands possible." Hunter stifled a laugh and showed him the ugly faces of the parents. "Your sister-in-law played against nine of them and won every round. She almost made them go mad with anger."

"Huh?" Jayden’s eyes widened in disbelief.

"What do you mean 'huh'?" Sydney turned around and rolled her eyes at Jayden. "You don’t want to play basketball anymore? Come over here and sign!"

It was a matter of life and death. Jayden rushed over and signed the contract.

The coach told the students and parents that a car would be sent to pick them up and take them to the tryout base. After a few words of conversation, the coach left with his people.

The parents also led their children and left.

Jayden left the basketball court after Sydney and repeatedly looked through the contract in his hand, feeling a rush of disbelief.

When Sydney did not answer the phone in the afternoon, he also called Lyra and asked her to help him.

However, Lyra just euphemistically said that she was recuperating in the hospital and it was not convenient for her to help. She also said, "Jayden, listen to your brother and don't make him angry."

Just as he was about to despair, Sydney appeared.

Not only did she help him teach those parents a lesson but she also stood firmly on his side. She was not afraid of Julien and only said, "Play well."

Jayden raised his head to look at Sydney in front of him.

The sky was getting dark and the sun had already set, but in his eyes, Sydney seemed to be shrouded in golden light, shining and full of majesty.

It was as if she was his savior!

Jayden stuffed the contract into his school back and quickly went forward to walk side-by-side with

Sydney. "Sister-in-law, you look really good in this outfit. Your figure is also perfect. Even supermodels pale in comparison to you!"

Sydney turned to see the teenager’s eyes full of sincerity and adoration and felt goosebumps all over her body.

She rubbed her arms. "I'm not your sister-in-law anymore. Call me Sis.”

"Sure, Sis." day den changed her form of address very quickly.

Sydney had done him a huge favor. Even if she told him to call her "Ma'am”, he would do so without hesitation.

Right before getting into the car, Jayden was one step faster and opened the door for her. "Please get in, Sis. Watch your head."

Sydney was incredibly uncomfortable and quickly got into the car.

"What are you doing?" Hunter came over and nudged the teenager with his hand. He asked in interest, "Why are you so attentive to your ex-sister-in-law? Do you have a crush on her?"

"What are you talking about? I’m only sixteen!"

"That's pretty good." Hunter flicked the cigarette ash and joked, "You're young, energetic, warm, and sunny. You're better than your brother. Maybe she'll like you."

Jayden's face went red from the teasing. He could not say anything even after a long time and angrily got into the passenger seat.

While they talked, Sydney happened to lower the car window for some air and heard every word they said. She was completely exasperated by Hunter’s ridiculous words.

She could not believe that the cool and cold Julien Flint had a good friend like Hunter. The two even had a very close relationship.

Amazing!

Sydney rubbed her aching head and pulled out her phone to see if there was anything she had to deal with. She found several new WhatsApp messages.

One of them was from Z-H.

Sydney wondered who that person was and why she did not make a note about them. After clicking on it, she saw the transfer for 88,888 dollars at the very top and immediately became embarrassed.

After the man replied to her message that day, she probably had too many things to do and forgot to delete him.

Sydney was about to delete him when she saw a new message sent by the man thirty minutes ago. [ SweetHeart's boss is skiing at Ibul Resort.]

[Z-H shared a location with you.]

How did this man know where SweetHeart’s boss was?

Sydney sent him a message. [Who are you? Why do you know that I’m looking for SweetHeart's boss? Did you investigate me?]

Julien, who was far away in his office in Flint Corporation, frowned slightly when he saw her message.

Sydney did not recognize him that night?

He remembered that Sydney was very drunk that night and kept searching for a man. She probably got black-out drunk, so she did not remember many things that happened when she woke up the next day.

Julien typed out "Julien Flint" in the textbox and was just about to send it when he suddenly remembered that he already divorced Sydney. If Sydney found out about that night, she would be embarrassed and not accept any help from him.

In the end, he deleted the words and re-edited the message before sending it.

[Z-H: I'm a friend of Hunter and know who you are. Hunter said that he has business dealings with you and wants to help you get SweetHeart.]

[Z-H: I have a friend who went to Ibul Resort to play and happened to see SweetHeart's boss there, so he mentioned that in our group chat. You gave me a lot of money last time, so this piece of news is free of charge.

Sydney carefully read the man's reply and lowered her guard.

He was Hunter's friend.

She replied to him with a "thanks” and quickly looked up at Hunter who was driving. Her eyes were full of doubts.

How did Hunter’s friend coincidentally appear in front of her that night? Furthermore, she also coincidentally jumped into the man’s arms and even...

Seemingly noticing that Sydney was looking at him, Hunter stopped talking to Jayden and glanced at her through the rearview mirror. "Ms. Raines, the look in your eyes is a little dangerous. Were you moved by what I said?"

"What did you say?" Jayden immediately interrogated Hunter, "What did you say to her? Why would she be moved?"

"Do you want to know?" Hunter raised his eyebrows and deliberately said slowly, "I said that I'm better than your brother. I'm handsome and..."

"Mr. Cohen." Sydney could not stand it anymore. "If you don't want to drive, then get out. I'll drive by myself!"

Hunter clicked his tongue but did not finish the sentence. Instead, he said to Jayden, "It’s said that one takes on the color of one’s company. Ms. Raines has been with your brother for six years, and her temper is very close to his now. Don't you agree?”

Jayden thought about it and nodded. "That's true."

Sydney really wanted to grab a roll of tape and seal Hunter's mouth!
