After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 242

Right after they had gone, Paul rushed into the police station and asked a policeman randomly, "Where is Sylvia Andrews? How about my younger brother?"

"Mr. Kennedy? They've left. All of them."

The policeman returned to his work after answering.

Paul inwardly cursed in depression and turned away.

...

In Royal Galaxy Restaurant, Sylvia sat at the table with James and Romeo.

Then she said to the waiter, "Three ice creams, please. My favorite flavor."

"Okay, Miss Andrews."

A short moment later, three ice creams were served.

The boys blushed slightly and hesitated to have them.

James tightened his grip on the spoon. He always thought ice cream was girls' food and never had it, let alone eat it in a high-end restaurant like Royal Galaxy.

He was worried about his public image.

However, Romeo wasn't. After hesitating for a moment, he took a bite. "Wow! I like it."

He nudged James. "Why are you hesitant? My goddess invited us to have ice cream. Do you want to let her down?"

A smile touched Sylvia's lips. She stared at them gently and said tenderly, "The ice cream is yummy. James, are you sure you don't want to try it?"

Her voice made James tighten his grip on the spoon again. He had never thought his name could sound so lovely after Sylvia called it.

For many years, he thought Franklin's name was much better than his and Poppy's.

James disliked his name. However, he loved his name after Sylvia called him.

Looking at her expectantly, he wished she could call his name again.

"Why are you staring at me? What's wrong?" Sylvia asked.

"Nothing. Nothing." James shook his head and quickly got a spoonful of ice cream to have a bite.

Sylvia noticed he was using his left hand. "Has your right hand been injured?"

"Nope." James stubbornly hid his right hand behind him.

"Why are you using your left hand, then? You've been wounded, but you don't want to admit it," Romeo exposed him naughtily.

James hit Cameron so hard that the skin of his right hand was broken.

"I can deal with your wound," Sylvia asked the waiter to fetch the first-aid kit and dealt with his wounds with the cotton swabs. "When you fight, you need skills instead of only strength."

Then she put the medicine to his wounds.

James was attracted by her words instantly. She didn't mock him but reminded him gently. James wondered what she meant.

Thinking about her fighting skills, he became excited.

His Adam's apple rolled up and down. Munching the ice cream, he asked, "Sylvia, do you..."

"I have a few friends attending the fighting training weekly. If you guys are interested, you can join them," said Sylvia. She tossed the used cotton swabs into the trash can.

Romeo stared at her, widening his eyes. "Goddess... I have studied martial arts since I was little. I can't learn from another master."

Sylvia glanced at him and continued to have her ice cream. "Your family has already become a merchant family instead of the martial arts one. Does your brother practice his fighting skills every day?"

Romeo was still stunned.

However, Sylvia's words made sense. Paul always dealt with the files and the company clients. In the past, he attended the training every day. However, he reduced it to once per week. Gradually, he would only practice martial arts once biweekly or once per month because he was too busy.

"I'd love to join them, Sylvia," James answered excitedly. He almost burst into tears. In the Maskelyne family, he had been living under Franklin's halo. For the first time, a person cared about him so much and offered him advice.

Sylvia said, "OK. You can start tomorrow. I'll let my friend pick you up after class. Then you can go to the training center yourself after knowing the address."

When Franklin entered Royal Galaxy Restaurant, he glanced around. His gaze finally fell on a table in the corner.
