Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 247

"I heard them!" Julien lowered his eyelids to cover the ridicule in his eyes as he responded indifferently.

He thought that they were quite right.

Lyra looked at him with incredulous eyes. "You heard them, but you're not helping me?"

Sydney and Layden also looked at Julien.

That's right. He didn't come forward to help Lyra even though we scolded her so badly.

'Doesn't he love Lyra so much that he can't bear to let her suffer at all? How could he allow her to be scolded like that?

'This isn't normal!'

Julien could guess what Sydney was thinking from the changes in her expression, and his eyes darkened.

He wanted to tell her that he did not love Lyra. Whether or not Lyra suffered was none of his business.

However, his intuition told him that he could not say it. If he did, something bad might happen.

The feeling was so strong that he could not disregard it.

Julien let go of Lyra and put his hands inside his pockets, with his fists clenched. He said in a cold voice, "I can't help."

"What do you mean you can't help?" Lyra was very confused.

Meanwhile, Sydney raised her brows.

She, too, wondered why he said he could not help.

Julien pursed his thin lips and lied with a straight face. "Sydney didn't call you a dog. It was you who admitted to being one yourself. If I help you, wouldn't it just be justifying that you really are a dog?"

He emphasized the word 'dog' a little too strongly.

Sydney did not know whether she had heard wrongly.' I thought I heard a hint of emphasis in his tone.

'What was he emphasizing? That Lyra really is a dog?'

Amused by her own thoughts, Sydney shook her head.

'How can that be?

'I must have misheard.

'Lyra is his beloved. How could he think of her as a dog?'

However, Lyra did not notice anything wrong with Julien's tone. She bit her lip and nodded. "You're right."

Although she thought it was a little strange, she could not say that it was, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

Julien knew that she would not be unreasonable again, and his tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.

He more or less knew that as long as she did not cause trouble, he would not have to coax her, and he would not be manipulated by that strange force because he refused to console her.

At that thought, Julien rubbed his fingers. "Well, there's no way to get to the bottom of this now. Let's just hand it over to the police. As for your restaurant..."

He then looked at the manager.

The manager immediately straightened up. "We will fully cooperate with the investigation."

Julien nodded and looked at Sydney, his eyes softening a little. "What do you think?"

Sydney did not answer. In fact, she was somewhat speechless.

Layden gently nudged her shoulder. "Sydney?"

"Sorry, I spaced out. What happened?" Sydney snapped back to her senses, and the corners of her mouth lifted into an embarrassed smile.

However, she could not calm down from how shocked she felt.

Julien's eyes earlier looked like the Julien Flint from the past...

Not noticing anything wrong with Sydney, Layden said gently, "President Flint said we can't get to the bottom of this now, so we'll leave it to the police and let them handle it."

"Oh, sure." Sydney nodded in agreement.

After that, the manager called the police.

The officers from the station came, took a simple statement from Sydney and the others, and then informed them that they could leave.

Sydney and Cayden left first, while Julien and Lyra waited for their driver.

Lyra looked at Julien who was staring in the direction of Sydney's departure. She felt incredibly jealous.
