My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

"Hello, Lyra?" Kate said sobbing, "What should I do? Sydney wants to sue me."

Lyra did not expect Sydney to do that either and was overwhelmed for a while. "Don't worry, Kate."

"How can I not worry?" Kate was so anxious that she jumped to her feet. "Once she sues me, there'll be a stain on my record. What will the people in the circle think of me then?" No one in the circle would accept a daughter-in-law with a stained record.

If she could not marry into a wealthy family, she would not be able to help Morgan Enterprise. Her father would hate her and bring home his illegitimate daughter.

The more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. Kate gripped her phone tightly. "Lyra, you have to save me. I did this for you."

Lyra bit her lip secretly. She was a little sickened by Kate.

Kate did it for her?

She had only hinted to Kate to deal with Sydney for her, but she did not tell Kate to use that method.

Although that was what she thought, she could not say it out loud and could only say, "I know. I'll help you.

"That's great." Kate wept with joy. Then, she asked, "By the way, didn't you say you'd help me plead with President Flint? As long as you convince President Flint to help me, Sydney won't be able to go against him."

"I know, but Julien already refused me last time. This time..."

"Lyra, go and talk to President Flint again. He loves you so much. He'll definitely agree." Kate did not want to hear words of refusal and quickly interrupted Lyra.

A trace of displeasure flashed in Lyra's eyes but disappeared as quickly as it came. She said with difficulty, "But....."

"Lyra, you said you'd help me." Kate interrupted her again.

Lyra began to grow annoyed, but her mouth said," Okay, I'll try again."

"Thank you, Lyra." Kate sighed in relief.

After hanging up the phone, Lyra walked out of the room and drove to Flint Corporation.

"President Flint, Ms. Madden is here." Zach knocked on the door and walked into the president's office.

Julien was working on documents when he heard that, and he raised his head. "Let her in."

Zach responded, "Yes."

Soon, Lyra came in.

She frowned at the faint smell of smoke in the air." Julien, did you smoke?"

Julien nodded. "Just one joint."

"Why are you smoking? I hate the smell of smoke the most." Lyra used her hand to fan the air in front of her.

Julien looked at her closely. "You hate it? I thought you didn't hate the smell of smoke. I specifically asked you if you mind me smoking in a letter before, and you said you didn't. You even suggested that I smoke menthol cigarettes. This is the smoke you're smelling."

Lyra began to panic, but she did not reveal it on her face and simply smiled in response. "That was in the past. I was in a coma for six years and came to dislike the smell of smoke."

Thinking that she made sense, Julien dispelled the doubts in his mind.

Lyra saw his gaze regain its calmness and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

That was close. She was almost exposed again.

If she had known, she would not have burned those letters so quickly. She should have read them once to avoid exposing herself.

Lyra did feel a little regretful, but she quickly regained her composure. "By the way, you should stop smoking,

Julien. It's bad for your health." "Okay." Julien nodded and agreed.

Lyra hugged his arm. "You're the best, Julien."

The best?

Julien lowered his eyes. Suddenly, what Sydney had said at the conference earlier played back in his mind.

He had a problem with her, so he emotionally abused her for six years.

Could someone like him be considered 'the best'?

Feeling slightly annoyed, Julien pulled his arm out. His voice also became much colder. "Lyra, I want to know why you told Sydney I was like your brother six years ago. Why didn't you tell her I was your boyfriend?"

If she had told the truth back then, maybe he would not have treated Sydney that way.

Like Sydney said, she would not have married him if she knew that he was with Lyra.

However, for some reason, when he thought that Sydney might have wanted to marry him, he suddenly felt as though there was something in his chest.

Lyra heard his questioning, and her gaze flickered. "I'm sorry, Julien. I didn't mean to. I was still young back then, and my parents didn't want me to start dating so early. I was afraid my roommate would accidentally reveal it and the news would get to my

parents, so I..."

She lowered her head and tugged on his sleeve. "You can scold me, Julien."

Seeing Lyra's pitiful look, Julien's heart softened again, and he rubbed his temples. "Forget it. It's all in the past."

"Are you not angry anymore?" Lyra lifted her eyes and looked at him anxiously.

Julien pursed his lips. "Yeah."

Lyra smiled and hugged him. In her eyes, which he could not see, a wry glint flashed.

In fact, she said that to Sydney not because her parents did not want her to date. Her parents wanted nothing more than for her to marry Julien, but she just wanted to mess with Sydney.

Sydney had wanted to confess to Julien back then. However, Lyra deliberately told Sydney that Julien was just a brother to her so that Sydney would be humiliated when she confessed and learned that Lyra was actually Julien's boyfriend. Unexpectedly, she got into a car accident before her plan could succeed.

At that thought, Lyra hated the driver who hit her.

If not for that driver, she would have married Julien long ago. Sydney would not even be in the picture.

"By the way, why are you looking for me, Lyra?" Julien gently pushed Lyra away.

Lyra put away her thoughts and bit her lower lip. "It's Kate. Julien, Sydney wants to sue Kate. Can you..."

Julien finally understood her purpose, and his expression sank. "I told you last time that I won't help her. Even if she did it for you, she's in the wrong. She's the only one to blame for her predicament." "I know, but I can't bear to see Kate like this." Lyra sighed.

Julien caressed her hair. "Don't worry. Although Kate has broken the law, the crime isn't serious. She'll be detained at most and will be fine after several days."

Lyra nodded. "That's the only way. Kate was too impulsive this time. I hope she'll be more careful in the future."

Julien was determined not to help this time, and Lyra could not stop the lawsuit by herself.

It seemed like Kate would really be thrown in the slammer this time. Lyra had no choice but to wait for Kate to come out and then coax her properly.

Then, Lyra pointed in a certain direction in the office." Julien, I'm going to the washroom."

"Okay." Julien nodded.

Lyra walked towards the washroom. Inside, she took out her phone and called Kate.

Having been waiting for good news, Kate hurriedly answered the call when she saw Lyra calling. "Lyra, how did it go? Has President Flint promised to help me?"

Lyra shook her head regretfully. "Julien didn't agree, Kate. I'm sorry. I did my best."

"How could that be..." Kate felt as if she was struck by lightning. Her body swayed, and she almost fainted.

President Flint was not helping her.

In that case, what should she do?

"Kate, you-"

Before Lyra could finish, she heard a knock on the door from Kate's side.

Kate put down her phone and shouted at the door," Who is it?"

"Delivery," the person outside the door answered.

Kate went over to open the door without suspecting anything, only to find that the people outside the door were not delivery men at all. They were two police officers in police uniforms!

She had been fooled!

Kate knew that they were here to arrest her, and panic flashed in her eyes. She subconsciously tried to close the door.

However, the two officers immediately held the door. One of them took out his ID and showed it to her." Hello, Ms. Morgan. A person named Ms. Raines has made a report to sue you for defamation. Please

come

with us."
