My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 254

At that thought, Julien took out his phone and dialed Sydney's number.

What he did not expect was the cold, mechanical female voice coming from the phone, telling him that Sydney's phone was turned off.

Zach also heard it and cleared his throat. "Well... Why don't you just go directly to Ms. Raines and talk about it face to face?"

Julien's eyes flickered, somewhat tempted.

However, he soon shook his head again. "Go to the Madden residence first. I want to personally rip off Lyra's hypocritical mask."

"Of course. I'll go prepare the car." Zach pushed his glasses excitedly and went out to get the car.

Julien clicked on the photo album and scrolled to the two photos of Sydney previously taken by the dress store clerk. His eyes were deep yet filled with tenderness. "In our six years of marriage, why didn't you ever reveal that you used to be pen pals with someone?"

If she revealed it even just a little, maybe he would have realized that she was Maple Leaf.

In that case, he definitely would not have treated her that way!

Buzz!

His phone vibrated.

Julien looked at the message that popped up on the screen. It was from Zach. [President Flint, I'm waiting for you outside the company entrance in the car.]

Julien did not reply. He turned off the phone, put it in his suit pocket, and lifted his foot out of the conference room.

On the way to the Madden family villa, it was raining cats and dogs. It was so gray and foggy that the road was barely visible.

Zach muttered while driving, "President Flint, have you noticed that the weather has become so strange recently? The forecast always says that it's sunny, but it rains practically every day. There was even a thunderstorm last night. Some places flooded, and there was also an earthquake."

"What's so surprising about that? Doesn't it happen every year?” Julien looked at the picture of Sydney. His thumb gently stroked her face as he responded indifferently.

Zach chuckled sheepishly. "I guess it's not that surprising. I was just making a remark."

Julien could not be bothered to pay attention to him.

Suddenly, he saw a person standing on the road in front of him.

The person held a black umbrella and was dressed in a white shirt and pants. He stood in the middle of the road without moving out of the way.

Zach also saw him and kept honking the horn, urging the man to leave. However, the man did not move.

"What's up with that guy?" Zach frowned and grumbled angrily, "Why's he standing in the middle of the road? He didn't move out of the way even when a car was coming. Does he have a death wish?"

"Brake!" Julien ordered coldly.

If this person was not leaving, that meant he was probably here for them.

Screech!

The car braked violently.

Zach and Julien's bodies both lurched forward for a moment before bouncing back into the seat.

Zach turned his head to look at Julien and hurriedly asked, "President Flint, are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Julien looked at the person in the middle of the road and replied with a displeased tone.

Then, he rubbed his temples. "Unlock the door."

"You want to go out?” Zach's eyes widened in confusion.

This was the private road of Eastview Haven, so there were usually very few vehicles here. The road was even more empty this time. There was no one else besides them and that man in front of them.

'Where the hell did that man pop up from? He even stopped in front of our car. We don't even know if he's a good guy or a bad guy. It's too dangerous to get out rashly!'
