My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Sydney was standing in front of the printer, printing the transfer letter and the land deed from earlier, so she took her time to reply. "Alright. Send out the processed documents on the desk and let me know when Luke comes in the afternoon."

"Understood." Sophie walked over and carried away the pile of documents on the table.

Once Sydney had photocopied everything, she returned to her seat and sat down. She sorted out the copies and bound them before taking the originals to the safe for storage.

Suddenly, she thought of something, and a glint flashed in her eyes. She picked up her phone, took a picture of the original deed, posted it online, and wrote: [Thank you President Flint for the valuable land! After that, she separately tagged Julien and Trison Corporation. Brandon would definitely jump in anger when he saw the post.

After all, a father was to blame for his child's faults. As a father, Brandon should also take some responsibility for what Lyra did. Sydney smiled at that thought. Fame and fortune were irrelevant.

Just then, her cell phone suddenly rang.

Sydney looked down and saw that it was from Cayden. She answered it and brought it to her ear without hesitation. "Cay." "Sydney." Cayden's deep, magnetic, and pleasant voice sounded in her ears.

Sydney felt her ears tingle and could not help but shrink her neck. "Why are you calling me? Are you done with work?"

"No. I just finished shooting for a magazine. It's break time now, so I went on social media because I was bored and just so happened to see your post. What did you mean by that post? Did Julien give you a piece of land?" Cayden asked.

"Yeah." Sydney leaned back against the chair.

Cayden frowned. "Why did he give it to you? Syd, are you two..."

"Don't be ridiculous." Sydney knew he had the wrong idea as soon as she heard his tone. Hence, she explained in exasperation, "He gave it to me to compensate for what Lyra did to me."

"Compensate?" Cayden was stunned for a moment before his face turned morosely cold. "Sydney, did Lyra do something to you?"

Sydney rubbed her brows and let out a long sigh." Yeah. I didn't expect her to be so bold either."

She then gave a brief account of what happened at the resort.

At that, Cayden clenched his hand that was holding the phone, and a murderous intent emerged in his eyes. "How are you feeling now?"

Although his expression was ice-cold, his voice was still full of concern and worry.

As such, Sydney did not notice anything off with him. Instead, she replied warmly, "I'm fine. I just had a slight concussion. I'll be fine after a few days."

"That's good." The corners of Layden's mouth tugged downward. "Well, I need to get back to work now. I'll talk to you later."

"Sure. All the best at work. Bye." Sydney nodded.

"Bye!" Cayden put the phone down and sent a brief message indifferently: [I need you to do something for me...]

The person on the other end quickly replied: [Roger!]

Layden's thumb brushed gently at Sydney's smiling face on his phone wallpaper. The warmth on his face was no longer present and was replaced with hostility instead.

He once lived in the darkness until a light suddenly appeared in his life.

He would make whoever dared to hurt his light pay the price!

In Trison Corporation, Brandon was in a meeting explaining the development of the first villa neighborhood to the senior shareholders when his assistant suddenly pushed the meeting room door open and came in. "President Madden, bad news!"

"What is it?" Seeing his assistant's somber expression, Brandon had no choice but to pause the meeting.

The assistant could not announce the matter in public, so he came up to Brandon's ear and whispered.

Brandon's face instantly changed. "Are you serious?"

"Yes!" The assistant nodded.

Brandon's face turned red as he slammed his palm on the conference table. "The audacity of that woman!"

Not only did she take away the piece of land in the city center that he was going to use to develop the first villa neighborhood, but she even had the guts to post it on the Internet and mention him. She was clearly doing it to trigger and humiliate him!

"What happened, President Madden?" A senior executive saw Brandon's furious face and asked curiously.

Brandon took a deep breath, trying his best to suppress the monstrous anger in him, and replied with a straight face, "It's nothing. We'll stop here today. The meeting is adjourned!"

Then, he turned and left the conference room.

On the way, Brandon dialed Julien's number and interrogated him the moment he opened his mouth. *

Julien, did you give the land in the city center to your ex-wife?"

At that moment, Julien was in the clubhouse at Hunter's invitation.

It was noisy in the room, and he could not hear very well. Hence, he got up and walked to the balcony before replying, "Did Lyra tell you?"

Brandon's eyes widened when he heard those words. "What did you say? Lyra knows too?"

"Yes." Julien nodded.

"What the hell is going on?" Brandon became more confused the more he heard. Displeasure was written all over his face. "Why did you give the land to that woman Sydney? She even posted the land deed online and mentioned me. It looks like she's just showing off, but in reality, she's slapping me across the face. Did you know about this too?"

Everyone in Port City knew that he had his eyes on that piece of land for a long time.

After what Sydney did, the people in the circle were sure to laugh at him!

Julien's eyes narrowed.

Sydney had posted the land deed online?

"Julien, are you still there?" Brandon raised his voice and asked.

Julien put his thoughts away, and his thin lips moved.

"Yes. I'm sorry, Brandon. I didn't know Sydney would do this."

Brandon scoffed unhappily. "Tell me. Why did you give that land to her? Please don't tell me you still can't forget your ex-wife. I'm telling you, Julien Flint, don't try to entertain thoughts you shouldn't have. Lyra and you are a couple. You're getting engaged at the end of the year!"

For some reason, Julien felt an inexplicable sense of resistance when he heard Brandon's reminder that him and Lyra were getting engaged.

However, he did not mull over the reason and only thought it was because he had been too tired recently. He pinched the bridge of his nose and said in a low voice, "I know. I don't have any thoughts about Sydney. I gave her that land because of Lyra. Uncle, Lyra almost got into big trouble."

"Huh?" Brandon's expression turned serious. "Julien, tell me. What happened?"

"Lyra poured shower gel in front of Sydney's door and almost killed her. Sydney got a hold of her and wanted to send her to jail, but I gave Sydney a commercial port and that piece of land as compensation for her to put this matter to rest," Julien said succinctly.

Brandon's mouth opened. It was only after a long time did he say, "I understand now. I'm sorry, Julien, for troubling you." "It's fine. I hope you'll have a talk with Lyra and tell her not to do those things again. I can clean up after her for now, but I can't clean up after her for a lifetime. Do you understand?" Julien's face was cold, and the expression in his deep eyes was hard to read.

Brandon could hear the warning in Julien's tone, and his heart skipped a beat. He knew that Julien was slightly displeased with Lyra.

Yes. In his heart, Lyra had always been kind, so it was indeed shocking and disappointing to hear that she suddenly did something like that. Otherwise, Julien would not have said that.

He was clearly implying that if Lyra did something similar again in the future, he would have to bid goodbye to Lyra. After all, no man would want to marry a wife with a scheming heart. Who knew if he would be stabbed to death by his wife in his sleep one day?

"Yes. Don't worry, Julien. I'll have a good talk with Lyra." Brandon quickly agreed.

After that, he put his phone down and instructed his assistant with a grim expression. "Prepare the car. I'm going home!"
