Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 144

"Enough, Jayden. Hurry up and apologize to Lyra." Julien furrowed his brows and urged impatiently.

Jayden bowed his head, knowing he was in the wrong. "Sorry."

He sounded reluctant.

The air around Julien turned cold. "Jayden Flint, where's your sincerity?"

Jayden pouted and raised his voice. "Sorry, Lyra. Is this enough?"

"Yes, yes." Lyra hurriedly smiled and waved her hand, indicating that she forgave him.

Jayden snorted, turned, and walked away, sulking.

Julien's eyes darkened as he stared at Jayden's back.

Then, he looked at Lyra beside him. "Sorry, Lyra.

Jayden isn't a sensible boy. You-"

"It's okay. I didn't take it to heart." Lyra smiled.

Julien's brow relaxed. "By the way, are you hurt?"

"No." Lyra shook her head.

Julien lifted his chin. "That's good."

"Hey, darling. Where are you going?" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Luke's loud voice.

Julien subconsciously turned his head to look at

Sydney.

Sydney was walking towards the creek not far away." I'm going to wash my face."

"Oh, be careful. Don't fall into the river." Luke warned.

Sydney stopped and turned around to roll her eyes at him. "That stream is so shallow. How am I to fall in? Are you dumb?"

Luke chuckled sheepishly. "I'm just worried about you."

"Whatever. I'll be back soon." Sydney turned back and continued to walk forward.

Julien's eyes darkened when he saw the interaction between the two.

Next to him, Lyra knew from his expression that he was upset, and she could not help but bite her lower lip.

"Interesting. Truly interesting." Not far away, Hunter watched them all with an amused smile on his face.

"Julien, I'm going to wash my hands too," Lyra suddenly said to Julien.

Julien looked at Sydney squatting by the stream and did not immediately agree. "Go in a while when Sydney is done."

Now, he felt uneasy for Lyra and Sydney to be alone.

It was not that he was worried about Sydney. In fact, he did not trust Lyra as he did not know when Lyra's second personality would appear.

"But my hands are all sweaty. It's really uncomfortable. " Lyra showed Julien her sweaty hands.

Julien looked at her wet palm but still did not agree. " Just bear with it."

"Okay." Lyra's eyes dimmed as she lowered her gaze, a little disappointed.

If it were in the past, Julien's heart would soften if he saw her like this.

Yet now, he was not moved at all. He even felt that her every move no longer had as great of an impact on him as before. On the contrary, Sydney...

At that thought, Julien looked at Sydney's back with dark eyes.

"Julien, come here for a moment." Jayden waved Julien over.

"I'll go over and take a look," Julien said to Lyra.

Lyra nodded. "Go on."

Julien hummed and walked over to Jayden. "Why did you call me over?"

"I have something to say to you." Jayden smiled mysteriously.

Lyra watched the two brothers talking, wondering if Jayden was badmouthing her to Julien.

However, it did not matter either way.

Jayden was only badmouthing her. She had plenty of ways to make Julien not believe him.
