My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 340

A thick layer of gauze covered most of Julien's back. The injuries he sustained were self-explanatory.

"Sydney, let's go in and have a look,"

Jayden said as he put his hand on the door handle.

Sydney shook her head. "No. I've already seen him. I should go."

"But..." Jayden wanted to convince her otherwise.

Sydney tightened her lips. "Jayden, I don't want to come here at all and you forced me to. Now I’ve seen him, so don't push it any further."

Jayden flushed. "I'm not pushing it. I just want you to accompany Julien!"

"Why should I? Who is he to me?" Sydney stared at him coldly.

Jayden’s mouth opened. He wanted to say she was his brother's wife but then he realized they had already divorced a long time ago.

It was the realization that stopped his words from coming out.

Sydney shook her head and went back to the elevator.

This time, Jayden did not stop her. Maybe he realized he was in no position to stop her.

Sydney pressed the button in front of the elevator.

When the elevator door opened, a man in a doctor's robe came out. It was Finn.

Surprised, Finn pushed his glasses and said, "I thought you were discharged. Why are you still here?"

"Something caught up with me," Sydney said with a smile.

Finn had a glance behind her and knew what she was referring to. He squinted and said, "Your ward wasn't supposed to be in this direction and you shouldn't be taking this elevator even if you want to leave. So, you're here to see Julien?"

Sydney was not at all surprised that Finn noticed. She shrugged helplessly and said," Yeah. I ran into Jayden when I wanted to leave and he told me that Grandma was hospitalized. I went to see her and before I got to leave, Jayden dragged me over."

"I see. So, you’re leaving now?" Finn pocketed his hands in the doctor's robe.

Sydney nodded. "Yeah. I should leave now that I've seen them."

Finn smiled. "What do you think of Julien’s injuries?"

"What do I think? Why do you ask?" Sydney was curious.

"Nothing in particular, just curious. I heard that he's injured because of you," Finn said as he pushed his glasses again.

Sydney looked down and said softly, "It's kinda related but it’s not the real reason. It's on him, so I don't have any thoughts about it."

"Oh?" Her reaction piqued Finn's interest." So, you know why he was whipped?"

"I guess so, but since it’s private matters between me and the Flint family, I'm not telling you. Goodbye, Dr. James,” Sydney said with a nod.

Then, she walked past him and went into the elevator.

Finn watched the door close before his eyes. Until the door fully shut, he turned around, pushed his glasses once more, and showed an odd grin. "Interesting.”

Meanwhile, in the garden outside the hospital, Sydney finally found Luke.

Luke was talking on the phone while leaning back on the bench.

Sydney went over and Luke waved at her after seeing her. He spoke for a few more seconds on the phone before he hung up.

"Are we good to go?" Luke asked as he put his phone away.

Sydney nodded. "Let's go."

"What took you so long?" Luke had a glance at his watch. He had waited for quite a while.

Sydney wore an awkward smile and said, "I got carried away while talking to Grandma. I'm sorry. I'll buy you lunch later."

"Forget it. You can't eat a lot of things now, and it's boring to eat good food alone.

Come, I'll send you home,” Luke said as he stood up.

Please."

She put her phone aside after the message. While waiting for a reply, her thoughts drifted away.

The wait went on for a full day.

On the second morning, Sydney woke up but still did not see a reply on her phone. She sighed.

She did not know whether Cayden saw her message or not.

She rubbed her blurry eyes and cleared her dozing mind before she called Cayden again. She still could not get through.

Brows furrowed, she muttered, "What happened? Where’s Lay?"

His phone was turned off for a whole day now and it started to make her think something happened to him.

She tightened her lips and decided to call Luke instead.

Luke picked up almost immediately and his yawns could be heard through the phone. "Morning, Darling."

"Morning, Luke." Sydney lifted her sheets and went to open the curtains.

Dazzling sunshine shone on her face. It was a little blinding. She closed her eyes for a few seconds before she slightly opened up.

"Darling, why the early call? Miss me?" Luke teased.

Sydney rolled her eyes. "Stop joking. I have something to ask you.”

"What's up?" Luke cleared his throat and got up.

Sydney also wore a serious look and said," It’s about Cay. I can't seem to reach his phone since last night. I'm worried that something might happen to him."

She was afraid that the confrontation yesterday might hurt him and he might do something crazy.

After all, no one knew how a person with mental issues would react in such a situation.
