Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 984

"It's okay. You still have me," Julien whispered, looking at her.

Sydney froze. "You?"

Julien nodded. "Yeah, I'll be there watching meteors with you in the days to come."

Sydney laughed. "You just said we could watch it, but isn't it tiring if we go up the mountain every day?"

That indeed sounded like a problem.

Julien pursed his lips for a moment and then said, "How about we watch it once in a while?"

Touched by his sincere gaze, Sydney couldn't say no.

After all, it was her wish, not his, to watch the meteor.

"Yeah." Sydney nodded with a smile.

Julien handed her a glass. "Don't worry. I'll make it all up with you until there is no more regret."

"Good." Sydney took the glass and rested her head on his shoulder.

Then something crossed her mind. She put her head back and looked down at the wine in the glass.

Julien was puzzled by her sudden action.

"You're drinking again!" Sydney said, clutching the glass.

"Huh?" Julien was drinking his wine when he heard the question.

He had to change his plan of gulping it down. Following a sip, he put the glass down.

"Can't I?" He looked at Sydney uncertainly.

Sydney was staring at him seriously and unblinkingly.

It made him feel upset, as if he had done a terrible thing.

Her aura was so strong that he was daunted.

Then again, being henpecked was nothing to be ashamed of because that was a sign of love.

Julien comforted himself in his heart.

"Of course not!" Sydney put her glass down on the railing.

Its flat surface could hold small objects which would not fall unless someone carelessly knocked them off.

Then she snatched Julien's glass and stared at him seriously. "It's bad for your health, and if you're drunk..."

She suddenly paused.

She was going to say that he tended to harm himself when he was drunk. He used to do that kind of thing on the anniversary of his mother's death.

On second thought, she held back lest it evoke his sadness.

"Anyway, you should not drink. You made a promise to your grandmother." Sydney put the glass on the railing alongside hers.

Julien pursed his lips and silently looked at Sydney.

After a while, he suddenly laughed. "I know what you're concerned about. Don't worry. It won't happen."

The cold wind blew past, ruffling Sydney's hair.

Julien gently smoothed it for her and continued, "I got drunk on the anniversary of my mother's death because I saw her dead in front of me. It left a psychological shadow in my heart and made me believe that it was my fault. I thought that she couldn't have her freedom and be with the man she loved because of me."

His mentioning of the matter on his own meant that he had gotten over it. Sydney bit her lip and asked, "Have you received psychotherapy as I asked you to?"

Julien shook his head. "No."

Sydney crinkled her nose unhappily.
