Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 114

Sydney's eyes flashed and she decided to go see a doctor later.

She wanted to see what was wrong with her body that made Lyra so concerned.

"Alright, if you insist." Seeing that Sydney was so insistent, the Old Madam stopped trying to persuade her to see a doctor.

Velma snorted coldly. "Mom, I think she just doesn't know what's good for her."

"Shut your mouth!" the Old Madam shouted.

Velma trembled and she stopped talking.

Although the Old Madam was getting old, her aura had never diminished.

For so many years, Velma had only dared to complain behind her back and did not dare to openly confront the Old Madam.

"By the way, Sydney, this is for you." The Old Madam raised her hand and fished out a red rope from under the pillow

Something was dangling from the red rope. It was a key.

"Grandma, is this what you said you wanted to give me?" Sydney took the key curiously.

Velma and Lyra had been wondering what it was, and they immediately lost interest when they saw that it was just a dusty key.

The Old Madam nodded. "Yes, your father gave it to me six years ago and asked me to find an opportunity to give it to you. I should've given it to you last time, but I forgot about it. Now that you're here, I can finally pass this to you."

Sydney looked at the key in her hand with a look full of confusion. "Grandma, why didn't my dad just give me the key himself? Why did he tell you to hand it over?"

Moreover, she did not even know that her father knew Grandma beforehand.

Seeing through the thoughts in her mind, the Old Madam smiled and replied, "Your father and my husband used to be comrade-in-arms. Six years ago, when your father couldn't find you, he gave me this key because I was the only one he trusted in Port City. After that, your father..."

The Old Madam's words trailed off with a sigh.

Sydney knew what she wanted to say. After that, her father jumped off the building.

Sydney clenched the key tightly as her eyes became moist. Her heart regretted the day her father jumped off the building. Why did she have to hunt down the money that her stepmother had taken away?

If she did not go after her stepmother and stayed with her father that day, maybe he would not have had the chance to jump off.

At that thought, Sydney's tears fell and dripped on the key in her hand. Her voice choked up as she asked," Grandma, did Dad say what this key was for?"

"Of course, he did." The Old Madam handed her a tissue. "Your father said that this is the key to the old Raines residence. There's something important to you in the old residence. It seems to be a necklace. He said that you have to find it because that necklace is related to a huge secret. As for what that secret is, your father didn't say."

"Okay, I got it. Thank you, Grandma." Sydney sniffled, stopped crying, and managed to squeeze out a smile.

The Old Madam patted the back of her hand. "It's getting late, so you should go back first. Come back and see me next time."

"Okay," Sydney said, "I'll go now, Grandma."

Then, she picked up her bag to the side and walked to the door, not even sparing a glance at Velma and Lyra.

Velma sneered. "How rude."

Sydney heard her and paused her action of opening the door. Then, she sneered and continued to open the door, walking out without caring about them.

Just as she was about to reach the elevator, someone suddenly called out to her. "Wait."

Sydney paused and turned around to look at the woman opposite her coldly. "Ms. Madden, do you need something?"

"Let's talk," Lyra said with a smile.

Sydney raised her brows. "Talk?"

"Yes."

Sydney laughed. "With all due respect, I don't think we have anything to talk about."
