Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 5

After saying goodbye to Luke and Layden, Sydney returned to her father’s old residence.

The house was dusty and had not been cleaned in a long time.

Hence, Sydney put on her apron and started to clean up.

From under the sofa, she found her wedding photo with Julien. In the photo, she was smiling like a flower, while Julien stood beside her with a cold face and visible impatience between his brows.

Next to it were the notes she had written.

The diary recorded what the man liked to eat, the things he used, his hobbies, and so on.

All her thoughts were focused on Julien. She had tried hard to keep up the hard-won marriage, but reality gave her a resounding slap on the face.

Sourness built up in her eyes. Nevertheless, Sydney looked up and forced herself to swallow her tears.

The chime of a text message interrupted her. She took a look and saw that it was from Layden.

[Sydney, you helped me six years ago, so it's time for me to help you six years later. Don’t worry and just do what you need to. I'll be your support.]

Warmth welled up in her heart.

Although Cayden truly wanted to repay her, she did not want to rely on anyone. Ever since she married Julien, she had put away her temper in order to be a good wife. She almost forgot how free and easy she used to be.

Picking up the phone, Sydney dialed a number.

"Sydney, what are you up to this time?" On the other end was Julien's indifferent voice.

Her voice was equally devoid of warmth, treating him as if he was a stranger. "Tomorrow, Monday, don’t forget to go to the Town Hall for the divorce procedures."

Julien frowned. "You-"

She hung up without waiting for him to finish his sentence. As the man gripped his phone, his gaze darkened.

"Julien, who called you?" Inside the bedroom, on the bed, Lyra looked at the balcony to the side in confusion.

Julien put the phone away, walked over as if nothing happened, and tucked the quilt for her. "It's nothing. Drink your medicine first.”

Julien suddenly remembered the time when Sydney fell ill with the flu last year.

Back then, Velma lost her temper downstairs, smashing items around. As such, Sydney had to come down and cook while she was sick.

A mix of feelings overtook him for a moment before he nipped it in the bud. First, she hit Lyra, took advantage of Lyra's injury, and went to great lengths to marry him. She only had herself to blame.

Velma looked around. "Where did Jay go? I haven't seen him all day."

Just as she said that, the front door pushed open with a bang. Jayden came back with a gloomy face full of anger.

"What's wrong, Jay?" Velma hurriedly put down the bowl and went to check on her youngest son.

Jayden waved her hand away. "I'm fine, Mom."

Then, he looked at his elder brother and hesitated. " Julien, I saw Sydney at the bar today, and she was really close to a male model. Their relationship does not look ordinary."

Julien's face turned cold. "Who was she with?"
