Lyra shivered angrily. "What do you want?"
Sydney tapped her face and said wickedly, "I don't want anything from you. I just want you to see Julien and I get back together, and we can live happily ever after as a family of three.”
In the elevator, when Julien heard her, his tightened fists relaxed. A surge of happiness washed over him.
Outside the elevator, Lyra sneered. "Do you think that’s possible? Julien doesn’t love you! He’ll never reconcile with you!”
Julien had not realized that he loved Sydney.
As long as Lyra could stop Julien from realizing it, then Sydney would never have her way.
Moreover, Sydney might have been dead before that happened.
"Is that even up to you? Six years ago, Julien didn't love me either. He still married me." Sydney smiled and hit the nail right on the head.
Lyra gritted her teeth. "You..."
"I think that's enough for today. I'm tired.” Sydney let go of Lyra's hair.
Lyra felt the forceful tug on her scalp disappear and pushed Sydney. She was hugging her head when she
gave Sydney a malicious glare. "You wait for it!"
After she said that, she stood up and left before looking at her surroundings.
If she stayed any longer, Sydney might catch her once more and hit her again.
There was no way Lyra could win against Sydney.
Sydney looked at the way Lyra practically ran away from her and pursed her lips. She then looked at the bunch of hair in her hands. She pulled them from Lyra’s head, and it should be more than enough.
Sydney smiled and took out a plastic bag from her handbag. She put the hair in and closed it before putting the entire thing back into her handbag. Only then did she stand up and turned to leave.
Suddenly, she caught something from her side view and was stunned.
"Why are you here?" Sydney kept her smile and looked at Julien without an expression.
When did he show up there?
Julien saw her instant change in expression and his eyes darkened.
He pushed himself out and stopped in front of Sydney.
It was Sydney's first time seeing Julien in such a weak state.
Julien was injured a few times previously because of her, but he never ended up in a hospital and stayed for such a long time.
"How long have you been there? Did you see everything just now?" Sydney lowered her eyes and asked.
Julien admitted. "Yes."
"Are you planning to help Lyra take revenge?" Sydney sneered at him.
Julien shook his head. "No. I'm not planning for revenge in her stead."
When he saw how Sydney hit Lyra from the elevator, he was angry and wanted to stop her. He even wanted to help Lyra fight back.
However, he knew that these were not his own thoughts, so he fought the urge to intervene.
As he expected, right after Lyra left, he instantly calmed down, and the thoughts of helping Lyra disappeared. This once again proved that his emotions and actions were affected by Lyra. He had no idea why he became this way, but he knew it must be related to Lyra.
"You're not planning to help her take revenge?" Sydney widened her eyes in surprise.
Julien saw her mistrust and pursed his lips uncomfortably. "Yes."
Sydney stared at him for a short while before she said, "Fine then. Thank you for letting me off, President Flint. I’ll be leaving now."
She adjusted her bag strap and wanted to leave.
Julien stopped her. "Wait."
"President Flint, anything else?" Sydney turned around and looked at him.
Julien’s eyes were dark as he said, “I heard everything you said just now."
"What I said?" Sydney was confused. "Which one?"
Julien was notably upset.
