My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 210 Repay Her Loans

Hunter looked at Sydney.

Sydney shook her head. "I don't know either."

She was also confused.

Luke also hurriedly said, "Yeah, Darling. We could tell that Finn was serious. He also said that he'd throw all those who hurt you into hell. Lyra hurt you before. In other words, will he try to lay a hand on Lyra? But isn't he one of Lyra's people?"

Sydney frowned and remained silent.

Hunter asked, "By the way, why did Finn hug you?"

"Isn't it obvious? He must've taken a fancy to my darling's beauty," Luke said angrily.

Then, he thought of something and slapped his thigh.' I got it. He said he'd protect my darling because he has a crush on her!"

Sydney and Hunter rolled their eyes at the same time when they heard these words.

"How is that possible?" Hunter was speechless. "If Finn had feelings for Sydney, he would've had them long before Sydney entered the operating room. Why would he wait until now?"

Sydney nodded. "That's right. I could feel that Finn hugged me out of excitement. It's the kind of excitement where you find someone important. It's like how friends who haven't seen each other for years won't be able to resist hugging each other when they see each other again."

"Now that you mention it, I remember." Hunter suddenly widened his eyes.

Sydney and Hunter looked at him. "What did you remember?"

Hunter said, "Did you forget what Finn said to Sydney? 'You're still as kind as before.' He said 'before ', which makes it clear that he knew Sydney from a long time ago and only just remembered now."

"Maybe..." Sydney straightened her body and subconsciously touched the red mole on her wrist.

Luke quickly asked, "Did you think of something, Darling?"

Sydney hummed. "After you guys went out, Finn asked me how I got this mole. Then, he asked me if I had saved a little boy when I was ten years old. It seems that little boy was him."

When she was ten years old, she took out her mother's picture on the anniversary of her death, but her stepmother became furious over it and beat her up. She ran away from home in sadness and went to her mother's favorite park.

Then, she heard someone crying for help in the park. When she went over, she saw a little boy around the same age as her had fallen into the water. At that time, she did not have time to think and looked for a stick to save the little boy. Of course, she did not save him easily. Since she was too small and her strength was limited, she almost fell into the pond with him. Fortunately, the incident ended well.

She never expected that the little boy back then was Finn.

Hunter and Luke were suddenly enlightened after listening to her words.

"So, that's it. It turns out that you're Finn's benefactor. It's no wonder he hugged you in excitement and wanted to protect you." Hunter touched his chin.

Luke scoffed. "Even if that's what he said, I don't believe that he'll deal with Lyra for Darling's sake."

Hunter nodded. "That’s true. He's very good to Lyra. It's like he'd do anything for her."

Sydney smiled. "What are you two worried about? I'm not close to Finn at all. Even if I saved him before, I never thought of him repaying me before, and I certainly don't need him to repay me now. I don't intend to befriend him either, so what he does has nothing to do with me."

"That's true." The two men nodded.

After that, Sydney did not stay in the hospital for long and was discharged.

As soon as she left, Julien received the news.

"All right." Julien hung up the phone and called Zach up.

"President Flint, what are your orders?" Zach came in and asked.

Julien rubbed his temples. "I asked you to summarize all the loans that Skylight borrowed from banks. Is it done?"

"Yes, Sir. The combined loan from several banks is 180 million. Including interest, it's 230 million," Zach replied.

Julien nodded slightly. "Repay them for Skylight. Use the overseas account."

That way, Sydney would not suspect that he helped her pay it back.

This money was his compensation to her. He originally intended to give it to her after today. Although she did not want him to be responsible, he had to take responsibility.

Although the child in her belly was still around, she would still abort it when her body got better, so he gave her the money as he originally planned.

"Understood." Zach nodded.

Julien hummed. "Didn't Lyra come here? Let her come up."

"Well... Ms. Madden has already left," Zach touched his nose and answered.

Julien frowned. "She left?"

"Yes."

Julien rubbed his thumb over the pen. "Is it because I didn’t let her come up immediately?"

"No. She left after taking a call." Zach shook his head.

"From who?" Julien asked.

Zach shrugged. "I'm not sure, but her expression didn’t look very good. Something bad must’ve happened."

Julien pondered for a few seconds and lifted his chin." All right. You go out first."

"Yes," Zach answered, turned around, and left.

Julien picked up his phone and dialed Lyra's number.

The call connected quickly, and Lyra's voice sounded." What's the matter, Julien?"

Her voice was still as gentle and soft as before. It did not seem like anything happened to her.

However, Julien inexplicably felt that it was fake. He pursed his red lips and asked, "Zach said that you received a bad call. Did something happen?"

Lyra stood in front of the room. Her eyes darkened, but she replied with a smile, "It's nothing big. You don't have to worry, Julien."

Julien hummed. "That's good."

Lyra choked for a moment.

'Even if I said it's nothing big, it's true that I got a bad phone call. Isn't he going to ask for clarification? Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

'Why didn't I realize that he was so straightforward before?'

Although that was what she thought, she could not say it out loud.

If she asked "why didn't you insist on asking me what happened”, it would just make her appear pretentious.

That was because she said it herself that it was not a big deal, and she told him not to worry about it.

Taking a deep breath, Lyra desperately pressed down the suffocating feeling in her heart and forced a smile. "Well, Julien, do you need anything else? If not, I'll hang up now. I'm meeting a friend."

Julien nodded. "Okay."

The call ended, and Lyra became furious again.

'I told him that I'm meeting a friend, but he didn't even ask if that friend was a man or woman.

'Does he trust me that much?'

Lyra stomped her foot in anger and pushed the door of the room open forcefully.

Finn stood up and smiled at her, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "Lyra, you're here."

Lyra did not notice his change and closed the door before walking over. "Finn, what happened? Why did you fail?"

"There was an accident." Finn's eyes flashed.

Lyra put her bag down angrily. "So, it's only Sydney who didn't die, right? Is her child gone?"

"No, her child is still alive too. I didn't operate on her at all." Finn pushed his newly replaced glasses and looked at her.

When he saw her eyes widen in disbelief and fury, he only felt ridiculous.

If it were before today, he would have gone to coax her. However, now, he just wanted to snap her neck and kill her immediately. How dare she deceive him and impersonate his angel?

"What did you say, Finn? You didn't operate on Sydney at all?" Lyra clenched her fists tightly and looked at Finn viciously. "What the hell are you doing? Why did you do that? How could you do this to me?"
