My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 337

Recalling the confrontation with Cayden, Sydney looked down. "Nothing happened."

She was lying and Luke noticed her reaction. He raised a brow and said," Really? But you don't seem fine. After I got the wheelchair yesterday, I ran into Cayden and his look gave me chills.

"He looked grim. I asked what happened but he didn't say anything. When I came back, I also noticed the look on your face. So, I guess something must've happened between you and him, but I didn't ask because you looked moody."

Sydney bit her lips in silence.

Luke sat down beside her and said, "Come on, maybe I can give a piece of advice or two." "It's nothing." Sydney also took a seat in the chair. "I just found out about Cay’s mental issue, so..."

As for the poisoning, she decided to keep it a secret.

First of all, she did not want Luke to worry and second, she did not want to leave a crack in Luke and Cayden’s friendship.

Luke knew Cayden for a long time now. Although not as long as she knew Cayden, they were still friends and it was unnecessary to ruin a friendship on purpose.

Moreover, she decided to forgive Cayden, so it was not necessary to tell Luke.

"You, you found out about Cayden’s mental issue?" Luke was surprised.

Sydney squinted. “What? You knew?'

Luke was stunned. He realized his mouth slipped.

"Tell me! You knew?" Sydney glared at him sternly.

Luke struggled a bit before he sighed and said, "Fine. Yes, I knew."

"You..." Sydney kicked him softly. "You knew and you didn't tell me?"

She would have convinced Layden to take up therapy if she knew earlier.

Maybe Layden could get better and not poison her.

"Layden wants me to keep a secret.” Luke rubbed his calf out of grievance.

Sydney glared at him. "We grew up together! And you keep secrets from me? Tell me, when did you find out?"

"Uhmmm..." Luke’s eyes were moving around. It was a sign that he was plotting something else.

Annoyed, Sydney kicked him again but this time, as though Luke saw it coming, he pulled both his legs up and avoided the kick.

He smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay, okay, I’ll talk. Geez..."

"Cut the crap! Tell me, now!" Sydney urged.

Luke shrugged and put on a serious look. "I found out a year ago. Cayden and I kept in contact for two years now. It was your grandfather who got us together. After your father died, his shares of Skylight were sold by your stepmother and stepsister.

"It was your grandfather who has been buying Skylight's shares secretly for many years. Cayden started as your grandfather's collaborator. I don't know how long they have been working together but when I joined two years ago, I suspected that he has at least worked with your grandfather for three years at least."

"So, Skylight’s shares are because of you and Grandfather?” Sydney widened her eyes in shock.

Three months ago, when she had the divorce from Julien, Cayden brought her to her grandfather.

Her grandfather was an archeologist, spending most of his time in ancient tombs or dig sites, so it was not easy to get in contact with him. For the six years that she had been married to Julien, she never saw her grandfather even once and was unable to make any contact.

She was surprised at Cayden locating her grandfather.

Of course, what was more surprising was when her grandfather gave her the shares to Skylight. She knew after her father died, her stepmother and sister sold the shares, so she was truly surprised when her grandfather was able to pull out that many shares. She was curious how her grandfather got them and they were a lot more than what her father used to own.
