My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Julien frowned after he listened to the voice messages. For the first time, he felt a little disgusted at Brandon's methods.

He could not believe that Brandon would use those kinds of despicable methods to suppress her just because he could not buy the land. Suddenly, Julien's phone vibrated again.

He gathered his thoughts and looked down at the screen. Sydney had sent another message: [What should I do now?]

At the end of the sentence was a sighing emoji. It was very cute.

Looking at that emoji, Julien's mind suddenly replaced the emoji with Sydney's face.

Maybe she was making that exact expression right now.

However, he quickly realized that it was something he should not be thinking of, and his expression sank.

What did the expression Sydney was making have to do with him?

Why was he thinking of that?

[Z-H: I don't know.]

Sydney read the reply and felt a little disappointed.

The last time, that person had given her an idea that allowed her to successfully acquire SweetHeart.

However, she did not know what was going through her mind this time to subconsciously take the other party as someone she could ask for help from. She wanted to try and ask if there was anything else she could do.

However, she realized now that her mentality was not right.

"Sydney Raines, you're really getting worse and worse!"

Sydney slapped her face and picked up her phone again, typing: [Sorry. I was just asking. Don't mind me. I'll figure it out with my friend.]

Friend?

Julien narrowed his eyes. [Boyfriend?]

Sydney glanced at the balcony. [Yes.]

He was Hunter's friend, so it was not strange for him to know that she had a boyfriend.

What they did not know was that Luke was just a fake boyfriend.

Julien felt inexplicably annoyed to see Sydney admit it. He pulled his tie and typed: [It's not hard to build a factory successfully!]

"Huh?" Sydney stood up in surprise.

What was up with that person? He just said that there was no way.

Yet now...

Without thinking much about it, she immediately sent a voice message. "How?"

Hearing the eagerness and dependence in her voice, Julien's tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed. The annoyance he was feeling was also soothed.

[Z-H: Recently, the relevant departments plan to build a cultural museum to display world-famous cultural relics and treasures. They had chosen Port City but haven't found suitable land for it yet. You don't need a large piece of land to build a factory, so you can give half of it to the relevant departments.]

At that suggestion, Sydney was instantly enlightened, and she laughed. "That's right! I can share half of the land free of rent for a few years, and use this favor with the relevant departments to apply for an engineering team to build the factory. That'll work!"

It meant that the state would be involved in building her factory. Even if Brandon wanted to mess it up, it would depend on whether the state agreed or not.

At the same time, she could also ask the relevant departments to introduce a machinery factory to her. That way, she would kill two birds with one stone.

The smile on Sydney's face deepened, and her voice became livelier because she was happy. "Thank you. You have helped me once again." [Z-H: Don't mention it.] Sydney thought about it and asked, "By the way, we've chatted so many times, but I still don't know your name. How should I repay you?"

However, the other party did not reply after she sent that voice message.

Sydney reckoned that he would not reply to her, and she sighed before exiting the chat room.

At that moment, Luke, who had finished his phone call, came in from the balcony with an angry expression on his face. "You were right, darling. That old fox Brandon really did tell all the engineering teams and machinery factories in Port City not to do business with us. I could not convince them no matter how I tried. It's really pissing me off!"

Sydney could hear that his voice had turned hoarse after talking on the phone, so she poured him a glass of honey lemon water. "Don't be angry. I have an idea."

"What idea?" Luke took the honey lemon water and immediately asked without drinking.

Sydney told him her idea.

Luke slapped his thigh. "That's a great idea. Darling, how did you come up with this?"

Sydney shook her head. "It wasn't me. A friend did."

"A friend?" Luke looked at her suspiciously. "The same one who gave you the advice to buy SweetHeart?" "Yep." Sydney nodded.

Luke put his glass down. "Darling, tell me honestly. Who is that guy, and what is your relationship with him? Why does he keep helping you?"

Sydney lowered her eyes at her friend's inquiry, not knowing how to answer.

After all, even if it was an accident, she could not bring herself to tell him what happened that night.

"Alright. Why are you asking so many questions?

Drink up. We'll go to the relevant departments after you finish your water." Sydney changed the subject.

Luke could tell that she did not want to say, so he did not force it. He went along with her and said, "Fine, fine. Don't rush me."

The two bickered on for a while before leaving Skylight.

Meanwhile, in the clubhouse room, Hunter had finished singing a song and saw Julien sitting alone in a dark corner further away. With that, he took two glasses of red wine and walked over. "What are you doing? You've either been on your phone or looking at your phone since just now. I invited you out to relax, not to keep you busy with work," Hunter said while handing a glass of wine over. Julien took a sip. "I'm not working."

"Then what are you doing?" Hunter sat down and reached his neck out to look at Julien's phone. Then, his mouth fell open in shock. "Isn't that your ex-wife?

Are you chatting with your ex-wife?"

Hunter looked at him incredulously.

With the same expression, Julien replied, "She doesn't know it's me."

"So you're deliberately concealing your identity to approach and keep in contact with her?" Hunter's gaze became even stranger.

Julien tilted his head and glanced at Hunter coldly." No!"

"Then..."

"Enough." Julien rubbed his temples and interrupted him somewhat impatiently. "I remember that you have an uncle in the relevant department, right?" "Yeah. What do you want?"

"Sydney may apply for an engineering team at that department. Can you get your uncle to make it easier for her?" Julien took another sip of wine.

Hunter became confused. "Wait, you've helped her with You2's cooperation, and now you're helping her again. What the hell are you thinking? Don't tell me you're doing this because you can't let go of your ex- wife."

Julien frowned and spoke in a clear, cold voice," You're overthinking. I'm doing this because Lyra injured her. I'm making it up for her on Lyra's behalf." "Is that so?" Hunter examined him.

Julien's thin lips pursed in displeasure. "What do you think it is?"

"I think that you're interested in her," Hunter mumbled.

He had overheard the phone call from Brandon earlier and knew how Lyra harmed Sydney. He also found out that Julien had given Sydney huge compensation because of Lyra.

Since he already compensated her, he did not have to make it up to Sydney anymore. However, Julien did so anyway, which showed that Sydney had a different place in Julien's heart. Along with Lyra in the picture, it seemed like things would get quite interesting in the future.

At that thought, Hunter smiled profoundly and put the glass down. "Sure, I'll call my uncle now."

Julien hummed, grabbed his coat, and stood up from the sofa. "I'll go now."

"It's still early." Hunter looked at his silhouette.

Julien kept walking. "I'm going to the Madden residence to pick Lyra up for dinner."

At that, Hunter did not stop Julien anymore and brought the phone to his ear. "Hey, uncle..."
