Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 185

Sure enough, it was obvious who was at fault that night.

Julien must be held responsible somehow, and why would Sydney bear it alone?

As he thought about it, Hunter gave Julien a call.

Julien was driving Lyra back home.

When his phone rang, he answered via the Bluetooth earphone, "Yes?”

"It's me," Hunter said loudly.

Julien frowned. "What is it?"

Just as Hunter wanted to say something, he suddenly heard Lyra’s voice, "Julien, who is it?"

"Julien Flint, is Lyra next to you?" Hunter asked with a gloomy expression.

Julien gave Lura a sideways glance and muttered a yes.

"Fine. I'll talk to you later. Call me back when Lyra

isn't around."

After saying that, Hunter hung up.

Julien narrowed his eyes.

Since Hunter called so suddenly, it must be something urgent. Yet he wanted to avoid Lyra.

The thing he wanted to talk about must be related to Sydney.

"Julien, who was it?" When Lyra saw that Julien was silent, she asked once more in curiosity.

Julien blinked and said, "Hunter. He wanted to talk to me about work."

"Oh.” Lyra nodded and did not second guess him. "Oh right, Julien, are you going to the charity auction a few days later?"

"Of course. Mr. Leigh was Grandpa's best bud when he was alive. Since Grandma is still unwell and she cannot make it, I'll go in her stead," Julien said as he turned on the steering wheel.

Lyra clapped. "That's great. I'll be going with my parents too. But I don't have a suitable gown. Julien, can you accompany me to get one tomorrow?"

She looked at him expectantly.

Julien said apologetically, "Sorry, Lyra. I'm meeting an investor from overseas tomorrow, so I can't go with you. I’ll arrange two secretaries to go with you."

"It's alright.” Lyra lowered her head, notably upset. "I'll get Kate to go with me."

Very quickly, they reached the Madden Residence.

Julien remembered what Hunter said, so he rejected Mrs. Madden's offer for dinner and drove back to Flint Corporation.

Once he reached his office, he tugged on his tie, fished out his phone, and called Hunter.

Hunter was waiting for his call all along. When he saw his phone ring, he answered it right away, "Is Lyra gone?”

Julien nodded and said, "What do you want to say?"

"I want to talk to you about Sydney's pregnancy," Hunter answered.

As expected, it was about Sydney.

"What’s wrong with Sydney?" Julien asked with pursed lips, his tone of voice notably concerning.

Hunter noticed it, but he chose to keep quiet about it.

Julien had not realized his feelings for Sydney.

If Hunter pointed it out to him, then Julien might come to a realization sooner.

If that happened, then Hunter would have a harder time pursuing Sydney.

"She's fine, but she's planning to go for an abortion," Hunter said while he leaned against his bike.

Julien's expression changed instantly. "Abortion?"

"Yes."

"How did you find out about that?" Julien's hand tightened around his phone.

Hunter shrugged. "She told me herself."

She told him...

Julien's lips were pursed into a straight line, and his expression was visibly upset. He felt an inexplicable, indescribable sense of annoyance and anger.

He was the child's father, yet he had to find out about the child's pending abortion from someone else.
