My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 339

Noticing Sydney spacing out, Luke moved closer and asked, "Darling, what's wrong?"

Sydney regained her composure and saw his face inches away from hers. Shocked, she faltered backward before she averted his gaze by looking down. "N-Nothing."

Luke squinted.

'What happened? Darling seems to be avoiding me.'

"Sydney, can we go to Grandma's ward now?" Jayden could not tolerate watching Sydney being intimate with other men.

To him, Sydney belonged to his brother. He had to help his brother to keep an eye out for the men around her, keeping them away from her.

Sydney nodded. "Let’s go.'

Then, she turned to Luke and added, "Luke, I’m going over."

"Okay," Luke said.

Sydney signaled Jayden with a glance before the two of them headed the opposite way.

The ward section that they were at was the luxurious one, so it was no surprise that Old Madam Flint was nearby.

Half a minute later, Jayden stopped before a ward. "Here it is."

Sydney noticed Old Madam Flint's name on the plate. She knocked on the door softly.

Felica opened the door and when she saw Sydney, her eyes shone in delight. "Sydney, you're here!"

Sydney smiled. “Felicia."

Felicia nodded. "Thank goodness you’re here. Madam is talking about you just now. She wanted to call you but the call can’t seem to get through."

"My phone battery died," Sydney said.

After the phone call with Jayden last night, she forgot to charge her phone and only realized it this morning.

She was not overly bothered either because she was discharging. She just did not expect Old Madam Flint to call her.

"It's okay. Come in." Felicia opened the door fully and warmly invited her in.

Sydney nodded. "Thank you."

Jayden followed her inside as well.

'Grandma.

Sydney saw Old Madam Flint lying down on the bed with her eyes closed when she came in.

She thought the lady was asleep but when she called her, she woke up.

The old lady smiled when she saw Sydney. "Syd!”

"Grandma." Sydney went over and sat down beside the bed.

Old Madam Flint sat herself up and held Sydney's hands. "Sydney, why are you here?"

"I'm discharging today and I ran into Jayden at the elevator. I found out that you're here as well, so I came over. How are you, Grandma?" Sydney sized up the old lady before her with care.

Old Madam Flint smiled. "I'm fine. The doctor said I passed out because of my blood pressure. I'm old and when 1 get nervous, the blood pressure tends to shoot up. I'm better now. The doctor also said I can go home later."

"I see." Sydney nodded with relief.

It was then Jayden said with teary eyes," No, that's not what the doctor said! The doctor said she got lucky this time but if she faints again next time, she might not..."

"Jayden!” The kind look on Old Madam Flint was replaced by a stern one. She warned him not to continue.

Sydney, however, sensed something serious, so she told Jayden to continue.

Jayden nodded. "If she faints again, she might suffer a stroke and never wake up again."

"What?" Sydney widened her eyes in shock. She held the old lady's hands tightly. "Grandma...”

Sydney bit her lips in hesitation. She ultimately shook her head and said, "I don't think I will. The moment I aborted the baby, Julien and I became strangers. I thank you for punishing him for me but there’s nothing else between us anymore."

When she finally paid off her debt to Julien, she would delete all Julien's contact.

Old Madam Flint noticed the determination in her eyes. She sighed sentimentally and said, "Okay. Jay den, walk her out."

Jayden grunted as a reply. He looked rather moody because he did not understand why Sydney did not want to see his brother.

His brother was a patient admitted to the hospital. There was nothing wrong with visiting a patient.

After saying goodbye, Sydney followed Jayden out of the ward.

The two of them headed to the elevator without saying a word.

Right before the elevator arrived, Jayden turned around and said, "Sydney, Julien’s ward in the ICU is just over there. You don't want to see him?"

"No." Sydney declined.

Jayden clenched his fists. "Sydney, he's hurt. Please go have a look, just one look."

He begged.

Sydney was surprised by his persistence. She frowned and said, "Jayden, you're not begging anymore, you’re forcing me."

"I’m not, I just can't think of anything else. I just know if I beg really hard, you might say yes," Jayden straightened his body and said seriously.

Then, before Sydney could react, he grabbed her hand and ran forward.

When Sydney finally reacted, she was already in front of Julien’s ward outside the ICU.

The ICU ward was unlike the normal ward. The patient inside the ICU was surrounded by glasses, so even if she did not go in, she could see clearly how Julien was doing.

Julien laid on the bed. His face was as pale as paper. His bare upper body was covered in bandages, especially his back. It looked like a white sheet.
