My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit -
Chapter 381 Which Sydney Was Real
Luke had thought of a possibility. How could Sydney not have thought of it? She opened her mouth, her voice hollow, "So you think I'm not the real Sydney and that I've been switched with the real Sydney?" Luke tightened his grip on the steering wheel and answered, "I don't know, but I'm pretty sure you aren't the baby I first saw."
"It's impossible! No way!" Sydney clenched her fists, her body shaking. "If I'm not Sydney, who am I?"
She shouldn't have been switched, should she?
Luke pulled over the car to the side of the road and comforted Sydney, "Darling, calm down. Perhaps it's not what we think." "If it's not what we think, what's it?"
Sydney stared at Luke with sightless eyes," You're pretty sure I did get switched, right?"
"I..." Luke choked. He was speechless.
Sydney bit her lower lip, "You can't answer me. Apparently, you think so too. Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm not Sydney, because the woman who made Jane the scapegoat said that my mole would threaten her identity. I guess she was referring to the real Sydney."
Luke sighed, "Okay. I'll admit it. I do think you were switched, but that doesn't mean you're not the real Sydney. Think about it. The mole is so obvious, and the two babies look different. How could your parents not notice? But your parents didn't see it as a problem, so I'm thinking maybe you and the other baby who didn't have the mole were switched by mistake at the hospital, and when your parents found it later, they got you back?" "Uh..." Sydney froze.
'It is possible!'
'As Luke said, there's no way mom and dad didn't notice it was a different baby, but mom and dad and grandpa still love me so much, which clearly means that I am their own daughter and granddaughter, no doubt.
'So, it really could be just like what Luke guessed. The baby Luke first met was initially taken wrongly in the hospital by mistake and was later switched back?'
"But if that's the case, then why would the woman say that I threatened her identity?" Sydney frowned. She still felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell it. She felt so annoyed by it.
Luke scratched his hair, "I can't understand it either. But don't worry. After we catch the woman, everything will be clear."
Sydney nodded, "Okay! But I have to investigate it and figure out if I'm Sydney, my parents' real daughter."
"Do you?" Luke looked at her.
Sydney lowered her eyelids, "Yes. I can't relax until I find out what this is all about."
"How are you going to find it out?"
"I'll start with the hospital where my mother gave birth to me twenty-six years ago. If the woman who attacked me and I were really taken wrongly when we were born, the hospital should have recorded it." Luke nodded, "I think so. But you were born in South Lake. Are you going to South Lake?
"Sure. It happens that I had promised Layden I would go to South Lake to watch his show." Sydney touched her eyes," Though I can't see anything right now, I promised Layden. I'm going to do it." "When are you leaving?" Luke asked.
"Tomorrow morning. Sean had booked my flight and hotel two days ago." Sydney replied.
Luke hesitated, "Tomorrow? Then I'm afraid I can't go with you. Tomorrow is the anniversary of my grandfather's death. Our family is going to visit his tomb."
"That's okay. Sharon will go with me." Sydney smiled.
Sharon was a tough woman, so Luke was relieved. "OK. I won't worry about it with
Sharon going with you."
"Let me know tomorrow when your staff draws out the portrait." Sydney reminded Luke.
Luke nodded, "Sure, I will. Let's go back to the hospital."
When they got back to the hospital, it was twelve at noon.
Luke brought lunch for Sydney and told the caregiver to take good care of Sydney. Then he left.
While Sydney and Davey were having lunch, suddenly, Sydney's cell phone rang.
The caregiver hurriedly handed the phone to Sydney, "Ms. Raines, it's Hunter."
"It's Uncle Hunter!" Davey's eyes lit up and his face beamed.
Sydney stroked his head, "You can answer it."
"No, Uncle Hunter is calling you. If he wanted to talk to me, why didn't he just call me?" Davey curled his lips.
Davey knew that his uncle cared more about Sydney than him.
Hearing the jealousy in Davey's reply, Sydney had a wry smile and shook her head. Then she picked up the phone," Hunter."
"Sydney, where are you? I went to your office. Your employee said you haven't been to the office in two days. Are you in Shallow Bay?" Hunter inquired.
Sydney put down her fork and replied nonchalantly, "No, I'm at the hospital, and Davey is here with me. If you want to pick Davey up, come to the hospital." "Wait, at the hospital? Are you sick?" On the other end of the line, Hunter got worried, and his eyes widened. He was standing in the hall of Skylight Corporation.
But Sydney didn't answer him. She hung up the phone abruptly. She then gave Hunter the address of the hospital.
Davey looked at Sydney, "Aunt Sydney, is Uncle Hunter coming?"
"Yes, he'll be here in a few minutes. Go finish your lunch." Sydney put her phone aside, groped for her fork, and continued with her lunch.
In the Skylight hall, Hunter had a bitter smile and sighed as he looked at the phone that had been abruptly hung up.
It seemed that Davey hadn't been of much use in the past few days.
Sydney's attitude toward Hunter was as indifferent as ever.
Putting away his phone, Hunter left Skylight and drove to the hospital.
In about an hour, Hunter arrived at the hospital.
Seeing Hunter walk into the ward, Davey ran straight to him and clutched his leg," Uncle Hunter, you're back."
"Yeah, I'm back." Hunter gently patted Davey's head and replied, while his eyes were fixed on Sydney.
Sydney was sitting on her bed, leaning against the pillow. Her eyes were slightly closed as if she was asleep. Hunter walked over and called softly," Sydney."
Sydney opened her eyes and turned to Hunter, "Now that you're back, you can take Davey back. Davey missed you." "I know. Thank you for taking care of Davey these days."Hunter said with a hint of apology in his tone.
Sydney shook her head, "No, I should be thanking Davey. He's been taking care of me for the last few days, pouring me water, calling the doctor for me, etc. Davey is so great!"
Davey's chubby little face showed a blush as he heard Sydney's compliment. Then he shyly hid behind Hunter.
Hunter looked at the bandage on Sydney's head and asked, "Sydney, what happened to your head? How did you get hurt?"
Sydney touched the bandage on her head," It was just an accident."
"No, it wasn't! An evil woman knocked Auntie Sydney out and caused her to lose her sight." Davey poked his head out from behind Hunter and huffed.
Hunter raised his voice in shock, "What? You can't see, Sydney?"
"It's not that bad. It's just temporary." Sydney answered.
Hunter saw the calm look on Sydney's face, and he guessed that Sydney was telling the truth. He breathed a sigh of relief.
