My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 331

Julien took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He looked at Sydney and said, "I admit that what I did was wrong and I'll make it up to you, but this is different. Sydney, don’t mix them up together.

"Layden poisoned you and caused deformation to the baby, it's intentional murder! I must call the police!"

"Deformed or not, 1 was going to abort the baby anyway. I don’t care, I won’t allow you to call the police on Cay!" Sydney insisted and she sounded stern.

Julien looked at her in disbelief. "What did you say? Deformed or not? Sydney, that’s your child!"

As a mother-to-be, it was not appropriate for her to say such irresponsible words, at least to Julien.

Sydney knew it sounded inappropriate but she did not care. She did not care about what Julien thought.

She let go of his arm and said coldly, "Yes, it was my child but so what? He shouldn’t exist in the first place. He's a mistake! Besides, it's just a fetus, it's not even human yet. To me, Cay is more important than a fetus!"

Despite saying so, her heart hurt.

It was at this moment that she realized she cared about the child more than she thought she would.

However, Julien could not read minds. He faltered and looked at her as if he was looking at a stranger. "Fine, you don't care, but I do! That’s my child as well! As a father, I must do justice to my child!'

Sydney scoffed. "Justice? Julien, you knew I was pregnant early on and you aren’t like this. You don’t care if I abort it or not.

You’re happy if it's gone, and you don’t care even if it’s not. You won’t acknowledge him as your child anyway.

"Why don't you care about the child at that time? Why now? Why show your fatherly side now after it’s gone? Isn’t it a little too late? You hypocrite!"

Julien gulped. "Is that how you see me?"

"It’s not how I see you, it’s what you are!" Sydney mocked him.

Julien felt pain in his heart. He wanted to deny her claims but the words were stuck in his throat.

Maybe he was what she thought, hence the lack of words to defend himself.

Julien went silent for a while before he said with a hoarse voice, "Are you going to let Layden off?"

"Yes," Sydney said with her eyes down.

"Even if he poisoned you? You're okay with that?” he asked.

Sydney clutched her hands. "Yes. I believe he can change and I’m willing to give him a chance.”

Everyone was biased toward the things they believed in or were fond of.

Compared to an unexpected child, Sydney cared more about Cayden. She could not bear watching Cayden being behind bars.

"A chance, eh? Are you not afraid of what he'll do to you in the future?" Julien stared at her.

Sydney tightened her lips and looked rather evasive. "I believe Cay won't do it again. He did it this time because he’s sick."

As for what illness, she did not want to reveal it to Julien. It was Cayden's privacy after all.

Julien did not care either. He wore a sardonic smile and said, "Sick... If I was sick when I did what I did to you, will you forgive me like you forgive Cayden?"

Sydney frowned. “What? You were sick?"

Julien scoffed. "You never believed me."

He did not tell her that he was hypnotized because other than him not wanting to use her mercy to his advantage, more importantly, he knew she would never believe him.

She would only believe that he said it on purpose to find an excuse for what he did.

Sydney sensed disappointment in him. Her lips moved and wanted to say something

Julien regained his calm and composure. He stared at her and asked, “Sydney, I'll ask you one more time. Are you sure you are going to let Cay den off? You won't regret it?'

"I won't!" Sydney nodded without hesitation.
