Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 143

When Lyra saw that, she secretly gnashed her teeth and wanted to throw away the lunch box in her hand.

However, she knew those people would start snubbing her again if she did that.

At that thought, Lyra closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and forcefully suppressed the anger in her.

With that, everyone began to eat.

Julien also opened his lunch box, and the smell of food instantly wafted out.

He took a bite. The taste was delicious.

However, he did not think it was as good as the bowl of noodles last night.

He did not know why he felt that way. The chef's cooking was obviously better than Sydney's.

Yet, when he ate it, the taste was just slightly inferior. It felt like something was missing.

As for what it was, he could not say.

"Lyra, why aren’t you eating?" Julien raised his eyes and could not help but question when he saw that Lyra was not eating. She had not even opened the lid of the lunch box.

Lyra's eyes flickered, and she smiled. "I'm not hungry now, so I don’t feel like eating."

"I don’t think it's because she’s not hungry but because she doesn’t dare to eat it." Luke’s sarcastic voice sounded.

Julien's face sank. "Mr. Chase, what exactly are you trying to say?”

The corner of Luke's lips tugged. "What I'm trying to say is that the food was heated up by my darling.

Since you've harmed my darling so many times, you probably feel embarrassed to eat it. Besides, you're afraid that my darling has poisoned it, right?”

As if he had hit the nail on the head, Lyra's eyes trembled, but she quickly lowered her eyes and forced a smile. "You must be joking, Mr. Chase. There's no such thing. I’m really not eating because I'm not hungry. I'm going over there for some air.”

After that, she put down her lunch box and walked towards the cliff not far away.

Julien pursed his thin lips. He was worried about her being alone, so he covered his lunch box and followed her.

Luke looked at the two departing figures and clicked his tongue. "She’s so good at making excuses."

"Enough already. Shut your mouth when you eat." Sydney rolled her eyes at him and shoved a piece of meat into his mouth.

Luke jumped up at the scalding meat. "Darling, are you trying to kill me?"

Sydney snickered. "It's your fault for opening your mouth so wide.”

The others also laughed at her words.

Luke sat down with a gloomy face.

Not far away, Julien looked at that happy scene, and his eyes darkened.

They were hiking together, but for some reason, Lyra and he could not blend in with them.

Even Hunter and Jayden had distanced themselves from Lyra and him.

That had never been the case before. However, it seemed to have happened gradually since he got together with Lyra.

"Julien, what are you thinking about?" At that moment, Lyra's voice sounded next to him.

Julien collected his thoughts and turned his head back to her. "Nothing.”

Lyra nodded, seemingly convinced.

She looked at the distant mountains. "Actually, Mr. Chase was right. I didn’t eat because I couldn’t bring myself to eat that meal. Although it wasn’t my intention to hurt Ms. Raines, it’s a fact that I did harm her. I'm too ashamed to eat the food that Ms. Raines heated up."

"I know.” Julien raised his chin. "I'm sorry. It was my fault for not being thoughtful. I should've packed more

food."

"It’s okay." Lyra hugged his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder, smiling. "I'll just bear with it. It's the same if we eat when we go down the mountain."

"Aren't you hungry?" Julien inclined his head to look at her.

Lyra shook her head. "Not really. I'm fine. Are you hungry? If you are, go back and eat."

While she said that, she lifted her head and let go of his arm.
