My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit
Chapter 587 Repaving the Path

"Have you forgotten that the garden path is rough?" Julien said as he looked down at her almost ten-centimeter-high heels.

Sydney instantly remembered something, moved her heels, and murmured, "I see."

The garden path was paved with cobblestones. It was not easy to walk on that path in her high heels. To avoid falling, she had to be supported by him.

"Don't wear such high heels in the future. What if you sprain your ankles?" Julien pursed his lips in disapproval.

Sydney glared at him. "It's none of your business." "I'm worried about you." Julien frowned.

Sydney lowered her eyes. "No need. Let's go."

She walked towards the door ahead of Julien.

Julien looked at her back, shook his head resignedly, and followed her.

When she reached the garden, Sydney stopped and turned around to wait for the man behind her.

The man quickly came over, moved the bags onto the crook of his arm, and extended his hand towards her. "Give me your hand."

Sydney originally wanted to say that she just needed to hold his arm, but looking at the bags hanging on his arm, she finally did not say anything and put her hand into his.

Julien gripped her hand and led her to the cobbled path.

He walked very slowly so that Sydney could keep pace with him.

In the pavilion not far away, the Old Madam and Felicia were standing in front of the window, watching Sydney and Julien.

Felicia cheerfully said, "Madam, Ms.

Raines and Mr. Julien seem to be renewing their relationship. Ms. Raines has begun to accept Mr. Julien."

The Old Madam nodded. "Yes. Syd has feelings for Julien again. I thought Julien would lose Syd, but things turned out differently. This brat is lucky!"

"This shows that they are a match made in heaven, right? Even though they broke up, they will fall in love with each other once again," Felicia said as she looked at the man and woman in the distance. The woman tripped, and the man held her in his arms. They looked at each other. How romantic and sweet it was!

The Old Madam smiled. "Yes. This is destiny. Well, don't look at them anymore. Once they find out, they will be embarrassed. Julien can rarely be so close to Syd. I can see that Syd doesn't trust Julien, so she hasn't completely accepted Julien. If Syd finds that we are peeking, she will feel awkward and push Julien away, and Julien will be upset with us."

"That's right." Felicia nodded with a smile and closed the curtains of the pavilion.

Over there, Julien and Sydney finally walked past the cobbled path,

Sydney breathed a sigh of relief and tried to pull her hand back.

But Julien held it so tightly that she failed to withdraw her hand and could only frown at him. "Let go of me."

As if realizing it, Julien released her hand." Sorry. I didn't pay attention to it."

Sydney squinted at him, obviously not believing his words.

She knew he was lying.

He kept holding her hand on purpose.

Sydney was annoyed and amused. She ignored Julien and walked to the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

Without following her, Julien chuckled and called the servant on the lakeside over.

The servant came to him and asked respectfully, "Mr. Julien, what can I do for you?"

Julien stopped smiling. "Go and tell the butler to have the garden path repaved. 1 want it to be smooth."

In the future, he would often bring Sydney here. She loved to wear high heels, and he could not always follow her, so he decided to have the path repaved.

If he was not by her side, he wouldn't be worried that she would fall while walking on the new garden path.

The servant was embarrassed. "But Madam likes that path. She sometimes walks on it for a while to exercise."

Julien wrinkled his eyebrows and said in a cold voice, "1 will talk to Grandma. Just do as I said."

The servant nodded. "Yes, Mr. Julien, I'll go to the butler right now."

After saying that, she left quickly.

Julien carried the bags and walked toward the pavilion.

Seeing him come in, the Old Madam stopped joking with Sydney and said discontentedly, "What are you doing outside? You stayed there for quite a while."

"I asked them to do something." Julien put down the bags, walked to the table, pulled out the chair next to Sydney, and sat down.

The Old Madam asked, "What is it that you have to ask them to do right now?"

"I asked them to repave your cobbled path." Julien picked up the pot and poured coffee for Sydney while speaking.

"What?" The Old Madam was stunned by his words and pointed at him with a trembling finger. "Repave my cobbled path?

Sydney also looked at Julien in surprise and somehow had a bad feeling.

She thought, 'Did he do it for me?'

Before entering the villa, he said that it was not easy for her to walk on the garden path in high heels.

Thus, he wanted to have the path repaved, possibly because of her.

And judging from his character, it was possible.

But if it was true, Sydney would feel guilty.

"Yes. I told the butler to repave the path and make it smooth." Julien finished pouring coffee for Sydney, took the pot back, and poured coffee for himself.

The Old Madam was driven mad. "You brat! Why do you want to repave the path?'

She was confused.

She wondered, 'What's wrong with the path?'

Julien took a sip of coffee and replied unhurriedly, "It's rough. Sydney may fall while walking on it, so I asked them to repave it. As for the cobbled path, I'll have people repave the path outside your room with cobblestones and make it as long as you like."

He spoke casually as if he were saying how nice the weather was today.

But hearing what he said, Sydney felt anxious and pressured.

Sure enough, he did that for her.

"Julien, how could you do that?" Sydney angrily pulled Julien's arm while anxiously explaining to the Old Madam, "Grandma, he is talking nonsense. I didn't ask him to do that. I didn't even know what he thought.

Sydney was afraid that the Old Madam would think that she had asked Julien to have the path repaved.

After all, Julien said that he had done that because of Sydney.

So the Old Madam might suspect that Sydney had told Julien to do that.

"No one said you had made me do that. I did that voluntarily." Julien put down his cup, seriously looked at the Old Madam, and said, "Grandma, she loves to wear high heels, and I can't ask her not to wear them, so I can only do something for her. I hope you will understand me."

"Grandma, I..."

Sydney wanted to say something else but was interrupted by the Old Madam, who raised her hand and said, "It's okay, Syd. There's no need to explain. I won't blame you. It's all this brat's fault, but I understand him."

The Old Madam smiled. "As he said, he can not ask you not to wear high heels, so the only thing he can do is to have the path repaved for his beloved so that you can wear high heels and won't fall. I admire and appreciate my grandson. After all, not every man can do it. Since Julien is so good to you, how can I say no?"
