Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 299

In the clinic, the doctor treated the burns on the back of Julien's hand.

Sydney stood to the side with her hands clasped tightly. She asked with a solemn expression, "Doctor, will there be any major problems with his hand?"

I heard that there are many nerves in the hands. If his nerves get damaged, it'll have an impact on his life in the future.

'I can't afford to take responsibility for that. After all, he only got hurt because he was saving me.'

Julien looked at Sydney's tightly frowning brows and the anxiousness in her eyes. He said softly, "Don't worry. My hand will be fine."

Sydney knew that he was just saying this on purpose, so she ignored him and looked at the doctor, waiting for the doctor's answer.

The doctor threw away the blood-soaked cotton swab and replied, "There isn't a major problem with his hand. It didn't get splashed by a lot of the acid, so it only corroded the flesh. It'll be fine after the flesh grows back, but it may leave a scar."

Hearing the doctor's words, Sydney was finally relieved. "Thank goodness."

Julien's eyes softened slightly. "See? I told you."

Sydney rolled her eyes at him.

Just then, her phone rang.

She pulled it out and looked at it. It was from Luke.

She did not delay and walked toward the clinic door with the phone.

Julien glanced at the caller ID on the screen earlier and saw that she was purposely going to the side to answer it. His expression instantly darkened, and his hand on the table clenched fiercely.

The doctor saw this and pushed up his classes. "Um, Sir, if you suddenly clench your fist like that, I won't be able to apply the medication."

Julien frowned and finally loosened his tight right hand grip.

However, his gaze continued to stare obscurely at the clinic door.

Outside the clinic, Sydney put the phone to her ear and answered the call, "Luke." "Darling, are you okay?" Luke had just come out from a meeting when he heard his assistant say there was an extremist who threw acid on Sydney, so he called over in a hurry to ask how she was doing.

"I heard that someone threw acid on you. Is it true?" Luke gripped his phone tightly with both hands, his voice full of tension and worry.

Sydney nodded. "It's true."

"Then did you get hurt? Where are you hurt? Is it serious?” Luke's heart almost flew out of his chest when he heard her say that it was true. He hurriedly asked a few more questions.

Sydney felt her heart warm when she heard the unreserved concern in his voice, and she replied with a smile, "Luke, calm down. Don't worry, I'm fine. I didn’t get hurt because someone saved me. Otherwise, how would I be able to talk to you on the phone now?"

Luke suddenly breathed a huge sigh of relief at her words. "Thank goodness. That scared me to death."

He patted his chest. "By the way, Darling, you said that someone saved you? Who was it? I have to hurry up and thank him for saving you and the world."

"Saving the world?" Sydney shook her head in amusement. "What are you talking about?"

Luke wiped the sweat that had just seeped from his forehead. "I'm not joking. Since he saved you, it's the same as saving the world."

That kid Layden was a lunatic.

If he found out that Sydney was injured by acid, he might do something to destroy the world, so Luke did not say anything wrong. Sydney did not know what was going on in Luke's mind and just thought that he was deliberately making a joke to cheer her up.

"Okay, Luke, be serious." She tucked a lock of hair behind her ear. "You asked me who saved me. Well, I'm telling you now. That person was Julien."

"What?" Luke was stunned. Then, two seconds later, he asked again, "You mean Julien Flint?"

"Yes." Sydney nodded.

Luke frowned. "What was he doing at your place?"

Sydney rubbed her temples. "It’s a long story, but it's true that he saved me. If it weren't for him, I'd be in the hospital right now."
