My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 133 Consider a Breakup

Jayden lowered his head and looked as though he had received a hard blow.

Luke sneered and looked at Julien. "President Flint, do you still want my apology?”

Luke was implying that if Julien insisted on an apology further, then he would expose more of Lyra's misdeeds.

Julien understood the meaning behind his words and said nothing.

Lyra was also afraid. She tugged on Julien’s shoulder and forced a smile. "It's fine, Julien. Mr. Chase is right. I did so many bad things to Ms. Raines, so it’s fine if they don't apologize."

Luke pursed his lips. "From the looks of it, you don't need my apology anymore. I'll be leaving, then. The atmosphere here is horrible.”

After he said that, he fanned his hand and walked upstairs.

Sharon yawned. "I'm tired from horse riding. I'm going back to my room.”

"Since you’re all leaving, I better leave too,” Hunter said.

Soon enough, only Julien, Jayden, and Lyra were left in the living room.

Jayden looked at Julien, then looked at Lyra.

In the end, he pulled Julien's arm and dragged him to the balcony. "Bro, I have something to talk to you about."

"What is it?” Julien withdrew his arm.

Jayden shut the doors to the balcony. "You knew that Lyra Madden did all that to Sydney, didn't you?"

Ever since Jayden found out that Lyra did all that, even saying her name made him feel disgusted.

Julien pursed his lips. “I know."

Jayden was visibly upset. "Then, why are you still together with her?"

Julien frowned. "This is none of your business."

"How is this none of my business? I'm your brother, and I'm concerned about you,” Jayden said with his eyes wide. "Brother, listen to me for once. Break up with Lyra. She’s horrible and evil. I will never accept her as a family."

Someone like that was too scary. She might do something worse in the future. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

What if she endangered his brother, or the entire family in the future?

"Take care of yourself first. Don't worry about my matters," Julien said impatiently and opened the door to the balcony.

Lyra stood behind the door and stared at them with her eyes red.

"Julien..." Lyra bit her lip and called out to Julien.

Julien sighed. "You heard everything?"

Lyra nodded.

Jayden was embarrassed and he avoided eye contact with her.

No matter what, he was still embarrassed as he got caught speaking ill of someone. Even more so when, the one who caught him was the person he was speaking ill of. Jayden wanted to leave immediately.

Lyra called out to him, "Jayden!"

Jayden stopped and turned around. "What is it? If you want an apology from me, you can give up right now. I didn't say anything wrong."

Jayden was adamant. She was a horrible person who even committed murder.

So what if he asked his brother to break up with her?

"Jayden Flint!" Jayden said in anger.

Jayden clenched his fists and was just about to say something when Lyra interrupted. "Jayden, I don't need you to apologize. I just wanted to tell you that I didn’t intentionally do those things to Ms. Raines. I..."

"I don't care if you have a reason or not, and I don’t care if you did it intentionally. You did it, didn't you?”

Jayden cut her off mid-sentence and continued, "I thought you were gentle and kind, so I was supportive of your relationship with my brother. I realized how much of a mistake I made today. You don't deserve my brother at all. Being together with him will only cause him trouble.”

After saying that, he left.

Lyra looked at Jayden's silhouette and bit her lip, her eyes filled with gloominess.

First, it was Hunter, and now Jayden?

Was this Sydney and Luke's intentions from the start? To turn their friends and family against them one after another, so they could all break her and Julien apart?

When Lyra thought about this, she trembled with anger. She swore to destroy every single one of them in her heart.

Julien thought that she was crying and hugged her from behind. "I'm sorry, Lyra. Jayden is still young and he speaks without thinking. Don't blame him."

Lyra adjusted her expression and shook her head. "I'm not blaming him. After all, he was right. I was just afraid."

"Afraid of?" Julien turned her around to face him. She buried her face in his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat. She trembled as she said, "Afraid that you might break up with me."

Julien sighed and cupped her face. He lowered his head and said in a serious voice, "I won’t. Trust me."

He finally got together with her after such a long chase.

Why would he break up with her?

Lyra blinked. "Really?"

"Yes.” Julien nodded.

"But... But Jayden is your brother. He'll join hands with your mother and separate us. When you’re forced to choose between your family and me, will you still be this sure?” Lyra looked at him.

Julien adjusted her hair. "I will. I make the call in the Flint family, so none of them can force me. Don't worry."

"Alright." Lyra smiled and buried her face back in Julien’s chest.

He gently hugged her and stroked her hair. His movements were gentle, but his eyes were emotionless without the slightest warmth.

He was unsure of the reason himself. He loved the woman in his arms, yet he felt nothing when he looked at her, and his heart became calm like still waters.

It rained heavily at night. The strong winds and thunder made people in the villa feel like the end of the world was near.

Lyra’s face was pale from fear. When the thunder struck, she even screamed.

"Ms. Campbell, can you draw the curtains? The storms are terrible.” Lyra curled up on the couch while she begged Sharon, who was standing in front of the windows admiring the scenery outside.

Sharon turned around and looked at her with contempt.

However, she decided not to create more trouble so she drew the curtains.

"Thank you, Ms. Campbell," Lyra said in relief and smiled at Sharon gratefully.

Sharon replied, "You’re welcome. If it wasn't for President Clint, I'll probably just ignore you."

After saying that, she went to the kitchen.

Lyra lowered her eyes to cover the flash of contempt. When she did that, she looked pitiful and sad.

Julien came downstairs with a lady's jacket in his hands. When he saw Lyra, he frowned and asked," Lyra, what happened?"

"I'm fine." Lyra raised her head and smiled. "This has nothing to do with Ms. Campbell."

Julien pursed his lips. "Sharon Campbell bullied you again?" "No." Lyra waved her hands. "I was afraid of the storms, so I asked her to draw the curtains while she was enjoying the scenery. She seemed pretty upset, but she didn't bully me. I just felt sorry for her."

"You didn't do anything wrong." Julien put the jacket on her. "This villa is shared. Since you're afraid of the storms, it’s only natural for her to draw the curtains. Don’t blame yourself. Are you still feeling cold?”

"Not anymore." Lyra smiled as she shook her head.

Julien nodded and said, "That's good, then."

Just then, footsteps were heard from the stairs.

Hunter, Luke, and Sydney came downstairs.

Hunter scratched his head and said loudly, "What time is it now? Why isn’t dinner served? Where did the chef go?"
