My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 341

When Luke heard that Sydney wanted to talk about Layden, his eyes drooped somewhat despondently and he said in a sulking tone, "Darling, I thought you wanted to discuss something important with me, but it turns out that it's just about that kid. You wound my heart."

"Enough!" Sydney pinched her temples. " Luke, let me ask you. Can you contact Cay's manager? Ask his manager where he is. Is he working or did he go somewhere else?"

"Fine, I'll call and ask later." Luke scratched his somewhat messy hair.

Sydney hummed. "Thanks."

"Don't mention it." Luke shook his head then said, "By the way, will you be resting at home today, or are you planning to go to

Skylight?"

"I'll go to Skylight. In my situation, there's no need to rest for so long." Sydney rubbed her still somewhat uncomfortable belly.

Luke originally wanted to persuade her to stay home and rest, but he knew that she was stubborn and would not listen even if he did, so he sighed and said, "Fine. I'll go to Skylight later to help you with work.

Your paperwork must’ve piled up since you didn't work yesterday.”

Sydney knew that he was trying to lessen her burden. Her heart warmed up and she nodded with a smile. "Okay."

When the call ended, Sydney put down her phone, stretched, and went to the bathroom to wash up.

An hour later, she arrived at Skylight.

When she arrived outside the office, she saw Sophie waiting at the door.

"President Raines." Sophie nodded slightly toward her in greeting.

Sophie smiled at Sophie. "Did anything happen to the company yesterday when I was away?"

She asked as she opened the door.

Sophie followed her into the office. "No, but President Dayton and his group talked behind your back, criticizing you for skipping work despite being the company's vice president. They said that you don’t deserve your position as vice president."

Sydney sneered. "It seems like they know that they can't take away my half of the management rights no matter what, so they can only say those unpleasant words behind the scenes to satisfy their inner dissatisfaction."

She did not tell the company the real reason why she did not come to work yesterday.

After all, this was her private matter.

Now, she was glad that she did not tell them. After all, she had just said that she had a personal affair and would not come to work, and Stephen's group already started talking behind her back. If they knew that she did not come to work because she went for an abortion, they might start rumors about her instead.

"Exactly." Sophie nodded and agreed with Sydney's words.

Sydney pulled out her office chair and sat down, turning on the computer. "What's the schedule for today?"

At her question, Sophie immediately opened the folder she carried with her and read out the itinerary.

Sydney nodded. "All right."

"I'll go out now, President Raines." Sophie closed the folder.

Sydney looked at her. "Wait. Help me make an appointment with a lawyer, preferably one who's good at finance."

"President Raines, are you trying to notarize something?" Sophie pushed up her glasses and asked.

Sydney nodded. "I just found out that a large portion of the shares in my hands was acquired by Luke and Cay. I can't take them for free, so I want a lawyer to draw up a notarization certificate. I'll pay them back twice the amount in the future."

That was the only way she could repay Luke and Cayden.

"I see." Sophie smiled faintly. Her eyes when she looked at Sydney were filled with a little more admiration. "I understand, President Raines. I'll help you find the best lawyer."

She was respectful to Sydney in the past because of Luke, but now, she sincerely admired Sydney.

That was because not anyone could bring themselves to pay back the money that they received for free.

For just that point alone, Sydney deserved her sincere respect.

"I'll leave it to you." Sydney smiled at Sophie.

"It's my duty," Sophie replied.

Sydney clicked the mouse. "By the way, bring out the desk that Luke used before.

He'll be coming over today to help me with my work."

Sophie's eyes lit up at the words, and her hands squeezed in excitement.

However, she did it very stealthily, so Sydney did not notice. She only heard Sophie answer in a louder volume," Understood, President Raines.”

"Go ahead." Sydney waved with a smile.

Sophie turned around and went to the side to clean up the table for Luke.

Luke arrived quite quickly. He came in just as Sophie finished packing.

Sydney put down the pen in her hand and asked, "How did it go? Did you contact Cay's manager?"
