My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

"But... How am I supposed to save you?" Lyra's finger drew circles on the railing in boredom, but her voice sounded worried. Kate sniffled. "Go plead with President Flint. He loves you so much. He'll definitely agree."

"Okay, I'll try." Lyra nodded.

Kate was moved to tears. "Thank you, Lyra."

"Don't mention it. You're my friend." Lyra smiled, but it did not reach her eyes, which only had a hint of mockery.

After the call ended, she lowered her phone and tapped on Twitter to read the comments scolding Sydney.

She knew long ago that Kate was behind the matter. In their previous phone call, she deliberately told Kate that she promised Julien not to lay a hand on Sydney.

Lyra knew that Kate would not be able to stand seeing her being wronged, and Kate did not like Sydney anyway. Thus, Kate would definitely try to do something to Sydney. This way, Lyra kept her promise to Julien, and her hands were clean. She just did not expect Kate to make such a big move.

At that thought, Lyra rubbed her temples in annoyance.

No matter what, she had to protect Kate.

Otherwise, she would have no one to fight for her.

Amidst her thoughts, Lyra turned off her phone and went into the office, where she heard Zach say," President Flint, we found out who made the post. It's Kate Morgan."

"Who?" Julien could not remember who the person was for a moment.

Then, Zach glanced at Lyra. "She's Ms. Madden's friend."

This time, Julien remembered who it was and frowned at Lyra. "Did you tell her about the incident six years ago?"

Lyra shook her head. "No, it wasn't me. My mom said it. That time, I just woke up, and Kate came to see me. She happened to overhear me asking my mom how you and Ms. Raines got married." So that was it.

Julien immediately looked away, picked up his phone, and dialed Sydney's number.

In Skylight Corporation, Luke pushed open the door to Sydney's office with the investigation results in his hands. "Darling, I found out who was messing with you online. It's Lyra's friend, Kate Morgan." At that, Sydney frowned and put down the pen in her hand. "How did you find out?"

Luke passed her the report and smiled smugly. "It was easy because that woman was stupid. She used an alternate account to post it, but she didn't hide her IP address. I just had to check the IP address to find her. I really thought Lyra was behind this. What a shame."

If it really were Lyra, they would be able to deal with her.

"Yeah, it's quite a shame. I lost the bet." The corners of Sydney's lips curled in a self-deprecating smile.

She made a bet with Julien about whether Lyra was behind this matter. However, she would never have thought it was Kate Morgan instead.

Although her intuition told her that Kate did this because of Lyra, there was nothing she could do without evidence.

"What bet?" Luke looked at her curiously.

Sydney shook her head. "It's nothing."

Seeing that she refused to say it, Luke shrugged and did not continue to ask. Instead, he brought the topic back. "Darling, how do you plan to deal with this matter? It'll be easy to deal with Kate, but it won't be easy to suppress the online sentiment, especially when there are still so many accounts creating rumors."

There were rumors such as his darling cheating during marriage and that she secretly plotted to kill Lyra Madden.

Bah! There was no such thing!

"Let me think about it." Sydney lowered her eyes in thought and answered somewhat tiredly.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Sydney raised her eyes and saw that it was Julien calling. Thinking that it might have something to do with this case, she answered the call. "Hello?"

Julien pursed his lips when he heard the woman's cold voice. "I've found out who made the post."

"Kate Morgan!" Sydney said first before he could speak.

A trace of surprise flashed in Julien's eyes. "You found out?"

"Yeah." Sydney nodded. "Congratulations, President Flint. It wasn't Ms. Madden, so you can continue to be with her. Aren't you happy?"

Julien furrowed his brows.

Happy?

No, he did not feel very happy. On the contrary, he felt an unexplainable pressure in him.

However, he did not intend to reveal his true emotions, so he hummed softly.

Sydney's lips tugged into a smirk. "Well, since we've found out who the person is, I hope you won't interfere in what comes next. Kate Morgan is Ms. Madden's friend, but don't try to stop me from dealing with Kate even if Lyra pleads with you."

"I won't," Julien replied with his voice lowered. He did not feel good at all.

Was he that untrustworthy?

"Good. Remember what you said." After that, Sydney hung up the phone.

Julien looked at the phone screen that had jumped back to the main menu, his eyes dark and obscure.

"What did Ms. Raines say, Julien?" Lyra looked at him and asked.

Julien raised his eyes. "What do you mean?"

"About Kate. Didn't you tell Ms. Raines that Kate was behind this? How does she want to deal with Kate?" Lyra bit her lip, looking concerned.

Julien pinched the bridge of his nose. "I don't know. She didn't say."

However, he heard how cold her tone was when she mentioned Kate.

He believed that Kate would not have it good.

"Ms. Raines definitely won't let Kate off." Lyra was so anxious that she feared up. "She took so many things when I made her fall last time, and the same happened to Ms. Graham, whose family has fallen from grace. Now, Kate..."

Lyra grabbed Julien's hand. "Julien, can you help

Kate?"

Julien pulled his hand out. "Sorry, Lyra. I promised Sydney that I wouldn't interfere."

"But Kate is my friend. She did that to defend me. I can't just watch as something happens to her, Julien-"

"Enough." Julien took her into his arms. "Kate did this without asking anyone's permission. Since she did something wrong, she has to pay for the consequences. Do you understand?"

He looked at her.

The man's eyes were as deep as an ancient well, and it made Lyra's heart sink. Her face turned slightly pale as well.

Since Kate did something wrong, she had to pay for the consequences.

If he found out what she did one day, what would he do to her?

Lyra could not help but shudder at that thought, her eyes filled with apprehension.

No, she must never let him find out, ever.

Sydney had to die. Only with Sydney dead would her secret remain a secret!

In the meantime, Luke saw Sydney put down her phone and asked, "What did Julien say to you?"

"Nothing much. He just told me who was behind this, and I told him not to interfere anymore." Sydney

rubbed her sore shoulder.

"He agreed?"

"Yeah."

Luke's lips twitched disdainfully. "Kate is Lyra's friend, so Lyra will definitely ask Julien to help Kate. Julien has no moral compass when it comes to Lyra. Maybe he'll become soft-hearted and go back on his word after Lyra cries a little."

"If that happens..." Sydney clenched her fists, her eyes icy cold, and said slowly, "Then, I'll fight him to the death."

Luke was startled. "Daring, are you serious?"

Sydney gave him a look, not hiding the seriousness in her eyes.

Luke gulped. "How do you plan to do that, darling?"

"We're not even at that point yet. Why are you asking so many questions?" Sydney stood up with her crutches. "It's almost time. I'll head back now. Contact the media for me later, will you? I want to hold a press conference."

"A press conference?" Luke instantly became interested. "Is it to resolve this matter?"

Sydney nodded. "Yeah. Some truths have been hidden for too long. It's time to clarify them. I can't keep taking the blame and allowing them to bash me!"
