Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 26

Sydney's head felt dizzy as they talked by the car with the cold wind blowing, and she stumbled.

Julien's eyes darkened. Then, he directly took the phone from her hand, hung up the call, picked her up, and went to the other side of the car.

Sydney was startled at being swept off her feet so suddenly, and the umbrella almost flew out of her hand. She quickly tugged at the man’s shirt with one hand. The expression on her small face was cold.

"Julien Flint, put me down!"

Julien ignored her. He opened the passenger seat door and shoved her in.

"Are you done, Mr. Flint?" Seeing the man fasten her seatbelt for her, she said coldly, "I can hail a cab. You don't have to care!"

They barely talked in their six years of marriage, let alone Julien caring for her. However, in just a few days after their divorce, she had met with Julien several times.

When did Port City become so small?

Julien saw how much discomfort she was in and felt even more irritated at how stubborn she was. "The weather is bad. No one will pick you up even if you tried." “It’s my business whether or not I get a cab."

"Sydney." Julien leaned over and approached Sydney. His cold breath wrapped around her, and his eyes were cold. "Do you have to be so stubborn?"

The space inside the car was cramped, and Sydney had nowhere to hide the moment he came over.

Her face was freezing. Just as she was about to speak, she inadvertently brushed over the man's back and realized that she could not shield him with the umbrella when he carried her into the car. It was raining heavily outside, and most of his back was wet.

Sydney's eyes trembled. The words she was about to speak disappeared in her mouth as she quickly averted her eyes.

Julien looked at her and continued to pull the seat belt.

They both were speechless and stunned.

When Sydney came back to her senses, she grabbed the seat belt from his hand and inserted it into the buckle.

Julien's Adam's apple bobbed. "Sorry."

"It's fine. I know you didn't mean it, Mr. Flint.” Sydney could not help but mock Julien when she thought of what President Miles said when they were playing cards. "Mr. Flint is a 'saint' that only appears once in a millennium!"

Julien frowned at the woman’s cold words. However, he quickly got into the driver's seat and started the car.

He asked, "Where do you live?"

"Shallow Bay," Sydney answered coldly and looked out the window with her chin on her hand.

The two did not speak again, and the car was dead silent. The only sound came from the subtle swaying of the windshield wipers.

Sydney was very uncomfortable from getting drenched in the rain.

Now that the car was warm, her body felt both hot and cold. Not long after, she got so drowsy that she slumped into the seat.

The car arrived at Shallow Bay, but Julien did not know which building Sydney lived in. When he saw that her face was flushed, he figured that she had probably got a cold and detoured to find a pharmacy. Then, he got out and bought a box of cold medicine.

"Sydney." Julien patted the woman's cheek. "Take the cold meds."

He called her a few times, but she was still unresponsive and even coughed a few times. Thus, he ate the medicine, pinched the woman's jaw, and forcibly fed the cold medicine into her mouth.

Sydney's lips were a little cold, but they were very soft and tempting. Julien could not control himself from deepening the kiss.

Suddenly, the phone on the armrest of the car vibrated.

Julien also snapped back to his senses and only realized, in shock, what he did when he glanced at Sydney’s slightly swollen lips. His temples throbbed as he answered the phone.

"Julien, are you done talking about the deal?" Lyra's soft voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yeah."

"Come pick me and Velma up at Auline Plaza,” Lyra said." Velma and I came out to shop, but we didn't expect it to rain so suddenly. The driver has gone to pick Jay up from school and can't leave, so I’m calling you instead."
