Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 162

Sydney frowned. "Grandma told you to send me back?"

Julien's eyes flashed slightly. "Yeah."

"But in the ward, she didn’t insist on it when I refused you for sending me back. Why would she suddenly tell you to send me back now? Julien Flint, are you lying to me?" Sydney examined him.

Julien pulled open the car door. "No, Grandma said that it's getting dark and she's worried if you go back alone, so she decided to let me go after you and send you back. Alright, just get in the car. You don't want Grandma to worry, right?"

Sydney fell silent and finally sighed. "Fine."

At those words, she bent down and got in the car.

Julien's brows relaxed imperceptibly when he saw this.

It seemed like she believed him.

Then, Julien closed the door of the backseat, walked around to the front, and got in the driver's seat. "Back to Shallow Bay?"

Sydney looked out the window and hummed softly.

Julien pursed his lips and started the car.

Along the way, Sydney did not say a single word to him. She did not want to talk to him, nor did she have anything to say to him.

Julien looked at her a few times through the rearview mirror. Her expression was hidden in the shadow of the car, so he could not see it clearly.

The quiet Sydney made him feel very uncomfortable.

In these six years, it was not like he had never been in a car with Sydney before.

Back then, Sydney was still in love with him and actively started conversations in the car. However, he only listened and never answered. Sometimes, he even felt that she was too annoying for talking too much and told her to shut up.

Now that she shut up and no longer took the initiative to talk to him, he felt upset instead.

At those thoughts, Julien moved his lips. He did not know what he was thinking, but he suddenly took the initiative to speak. "Are you and Luke planning to get married?"

"Huh?" Sydney paused, obviously surprised that he suddenly asked that question.

"I don't know," she shook her head and replied.

A glimmer of light flashed in Julien's eyes. Before he could put away the trace of happiness in his heart, he heard Sydney continue, "Maybe in the future. After all, he's very kind to me, and Mr. and Mrs. Chase also treat me very well. I'll be happy if I marry Luke."

Julien clenched the steering wheel, his expression slightly unpleasant.

He could tell that he was satirizing him and the Flint family.

However, he had to admit that Luke was really kind to her. Her marriage with Luke would be better than her marriage with him.

Although that was the truth, Julien found it uncomfortable and irritable.

He tugged his tie and said with a cold and hard voice,' Is that so? Then I hope you get what you wish for."

"Thank you, President Flint. I also wish you and Ms. Madden a long and happy life together," Sydney said with a bright smile.

Julien pursed his thin lips and did not respond.

A long and happy life?

For some reason, he did not like that blessing. There was nothing wrong with the words themselves, but he did not like that she was blessing Lyra and him.

The two fell silent again, and the atmosphere grew even more depressing than before.

Sydney felt that the man driving was in a bad mood, but she did not know the reason nor did she want to. Thus, she simply took out her earphones and listened to music.

Julien noticed this, and the air around him became even colder.

She made him unhappy, but she continued to listen to music without caring about him.

It really pissed him off.

Before long, they arrived at Shallow Bay.

Julien parked the car, and Sydney opened the door to go out.

Standing by the side of the road, she let out a sudden " ah” and then pulled out a 20-dollar bill from her wallet again. She knocked on the window.

The window of the backseat wound down, and Julien turned his head from the driver's seat to look at her through the open window. "Do you need anything else?"
