My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 57 Sydney Isn't Dead

The three people saw in the monitoring that Sydney and Luke entered the hot spring an hour and a half ago, but Sydney never came out.

That meant that Sydney should still be in the hot spring.

"I'll go and have a look!" Luke said and dashed to the door.

Lyra looked up at the man beside her and asked in a gentle voice, "Julien, we don't have to go, right?"

"We're going!" Julien frowned. "Luke suspects that Sydney's disappearance has something to do with you. If we want to dispel his suspicions, we have to go there. Let's go."

Lyra smiled faintly. "Okay, I'll listen to you."

When the two arrived at the entrance of the hot springs, Luke was negotiating with the doorman.

"Sir, I told you, the springs are closed now. There’s no one inside." The doorman stopped Luke from going in.

Luke scratched his head and was just about to say something when a scream sounded from inside, drawing several people's attention.

They saw a janitor running out from the inside with a frightened look, mumbling to herself as she ran.

The doorman grabbed her. "What’s wrong?"

The janitor’s voice trembled. "Dead... She's dead!"

"What?"

The crowd was stunned.

The janitor pointed inside with shaking hands." There's a woman dead in the women's bath!"

"Darling!" Luke's expression changed and he immediately rushed into the bath.

Julien and the doorman also hurried in.

Along the way, Julien's expression was tense and tight, and the aura emanating from his body was even more oppressive.

That woman was dead?

What kind of joke was that? Was it one of her pranks?

Julien ground his molars as his heart throbbed inexplicably, causing his breathing to grow disarrayed.

Lyra felt his emotional changes and hated Sydney in her heart. However, her eyes watered on the surface." Julien, how could Ms. Raines have met such an untimely death? She was still so young."

Her words were as if she was truly sorry and upset about Sydney’s death.

However, in a place where no one could see, the corners of her mouth curled up.

What great news.

If Sydney was dead, then Lyra would have nothing else to worry about.

They reached the shower room outside and opened the door, disregarding the large "No Men Allowed” words printed on the door. There, they saw Sydney lying on the ground with a growing puddle of blood under her head.

It took a while before Luke came to his senses. His steps were stiff as he walked toward Sydney.

Julien stood at the door. His hands subconsciously clenched as his gaze locked at Sydney's pale face.

It really was her!

She was dead!

At that moment, Julien felt as if he had lost something incredibly important. His heart ached and felt hollow.

Just then, Luke’s excited voice rang out. "She’s alive. My darling isn't dead. She's still breathing!"

What?

The curve on Lyra’s lips instantly froze and her eyes filled with disbelief.

Sydney was not dead?

Julien's pupils shook as he stared at Luke. "Are you sure?" "Absolutely. My darling is still alive.” Luke placed his finger under Sydney's nose and could clearly feel her faint breathing.

The doorman sighed in relief at the same time and looked at the janitor in displeasure. "What's wrong with you? Why did you say she was dead when she clearly isn't?"

The janitor said with an aggrieved look, "I saw her lying on the ground in a pool of blood and was shocked, so I thought she was dead." ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

The doorman was speechless.

Lyra also glared at the janitor in anger. It was the janitor’s false claims that caused her to be happy for nothing.

As for Sydney, she stepped on Lyra’s shower gel and fell! Why did she not fall to her death?

Lyra was worried that someone would see her thoughts and quickly gathered her emotions. She said with a smile, "That's great. It’s great news that Ms.

Raines isn’t dead, right, Julien?"

Julien did not respond and lifted his feet to walk toward Luke and Sydney.

Luke was gently shaking Sydney, trying to wake her up.

Julien watched Luke’s behavior, which was completely devoid of medical common knowledge, and grew slightly angry. He directly grabbed Luke’s collar and pulled him away from Sydney.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Luke roared in anger.

Julien raised his eyes and looked at Luke with a cold gaze. "She's obviously in a heavy coma. You won't be able to wake her up like this. Also, her head is injured. You shaking her will only make her injury worse and cause her bleeding to worsen. If you don't want her to die, you should call a doctor immediately.”

Hearing these words, Luke was first stunned and then chagrined at himself.

Damn it, he was so worried that he did not even think about something as important as calling a doctor.

Luke hurriedly took out his phone and called the hotel.

Julien squatted and gently lifted Sydney's head, letting her lean in his arms.

Afterward, he tore off a piece of fabric from his shirt and used it as a bandage for the wound on the back of Sydney's head to stop the bleeding.

In the process, he did not notice the heartache and pity that was present in his eyes.

However, Lyra saw it all from where she was standing from the side. Her eyes reddened, but she did not go up to stop him.

She knew very well that if she stopped him now, it would make her seem narrow-minded. How could she not at least tolerate it since he was just treating an injury?

Luke finished the phone call. "The hotel said they've arranged for the doctor to go to darling's room. We just have to take her there now."

Julien tied a knot on the bandage and picked Sydney up bridal style.

Seeing this, Luke put the phone back into his pocket and reached out. "Just give her to me."

"No. What you did earlier clearly shows that you're not fit to take care of her," Julien spoke coldly, not handing over the woman in his arms.

Luke laughed in anger. "Are you saying that you can take care of her instead? President Flint, don't forget that you already divorced my darling. I'm her boyfriend now."

"That's right, Julien. Mr. Chase is Ms. Raines's boyfriend. Just give her to him. I believe that Mr.

Chase will take care of her." Lyra went forward and pulled Julien’s sleeve, softly persuading him.

Julien’s hand under Sydney's armpits and knees tightened, but in the end, he let go and handed her over with a sullen face.

Luke snorted at him and carried Sydney before walking away.

Seeing the two of them leave, Julien felt the scene eyepiercing and his heart grew irritated. He clenched his fists, but then he suddenly felt a sticky feeling on his palm. Bringing his hand up, he saw an unknown

liquid on his palm in addition to Sydney's blood.

The liquid had a faint fragrance and foamed when Julien rubbed it, so he guessed that it was shampoo or shower gel. He just touched Sydney, so maybe it was from her.

At that thought, he looked at the spot where Sydney fainted. Sure enough, there was a puddle of the same liquid there.

Julien let out a snort.

This woman spilled her toiletries and even stepped on them and fell. She was so dumb!

"Julien, Mr. Chase and Ms. Raines are gone. Let's go back too." Lyra took the man’s arm.

Julien lifted his arm and drew away from her. "I'll wash my hands first."

Then, he walked to the washstand and washed the blood and shower gel off his hands before leaving the pool.

Back in the room, Lyra picked up a bathrobe and handed it to Julien. "Julien, your body is stained with blood after you bandaged Ms. Raines. Why don’t you take a bath again?"

Julien had the same thoughts and took the bathrobe to enter the bathroom. Suddenly, he smelled a familiar fragrance in the air and his eyes narrowed.
