Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 140

"Since everyone is up for it, why are we still here? Go get changed!" Hunter rolled his eyes at everyone's attire.

Luke looked at his silk floral shirt, and he laughed at himself. "This really is not suitable for hiking."

"Go get changed." Sydney waved her hand, gesturing for him to go quickly.

Sydney did not need to change since she was already in sports attire when she came down. It was just right for a hiking adventure.

"Julien, I'll go and change." Lyra looked at Julien and glanced at the skirt she was wearing.

Julien raised his chin and agreed. "Go."

He did not need to change either. Although he was not wearing sports attire, his outfit was still suitable for hiking.

"Wait here for me," Lyra said and left for her room.

The others also went back to their rooms to change, while Hunter went outside to get the car.

Only Sydney and Julien were left in the dining room.

That was a good opportunity for Sydney because she had something to ask him.

"President Flint," Sydney said suddenly.

Then, Julien looked at her. "What's the matter?"

"Did you send me back to my room last night?" Sydney held his gaze steadily.

Julien nodded. "Yes."

Sydney's eyes darkened. "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I tried," Julien replied softly with his lips pursed. "But you were so sound asleep, and you refused to wake up."

Sydney's eyes twitched. "Is that so?"

"Yes." Julien nodded.

Sydney could tell that he was serious and that he was not lying, so she instantly felt embarrassed.

She did not even wake up when he called her? Just how soundly did she sleep?

Sydney cleared her throat awkwardly and tried to hide her embarrassment. She said again, "Thank you, Mr. Flint. But-"

"Yes?" Julien took a sip of coffee.

Sydney lowered her gaze and looked at him with scrutiny. "Did you do anything to me?"

"Did I do anything to you?" Julien raised his eyebrow and looked back at her. "What do you mean?"

"For example, did you pinch me at my neck or something?" Sydney took a deep breath and asked.

She could not ask him straight to the face if he kissed her and left a hickey. She just could not bring herself to.

She raised her neck purposely to make him understand what she was referring to.

Julien rubbed the coffee cup with his thumb and replied calmly, "No."

"Really?" Sydney frowned, obviously still in doubt.

Julien looked at her. "Why would I pinch you?"

Sydney was speechless.

Why?

How would she know why?

While Sydney was deep in her thoughts, Julien sipped on his coffee and added, "Don't worry. I didn't do anything to you. I put you in your room and left."

His expression was cold and without any trace of guilt.

Sydney stared at him for a while and could not see anything unusual about him. As such, she had to believe him.

Perhaps the hickey on her neck was really not from him. However, if it was not him, who else could it be?

Could it be that after he left last night and someone else came to her room?

At that thought, Sydney clenched her fist tightly, and her chest began to heave. She was fuming in anger.

She could not believe it. Why would she be...

"Darling, I'm done changing." Luke's voice interrupted Sydney's thoughts.

Sydney looked at Luke and asked in a heavy tone, "Did you come out of your room in the middle of last night?"

"Come out of the room?" Luke blinked. "No. I slept till morning. Why are you asking me that?"
