My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit -
Chapter 687 Madeline's Ambition
Immediately, Julien eased his eyebrows. He raised his hand and touched his face.
He knew he was a few years older than Sydney, but they didn't look like father and daughter!
'Would Sydney think we look like father and daughter?'
The Old Madam was amused to see the confusion and sudden nervousness on Julien's face. "Julien, since when have you become so funny?"
Julien's face became gloomy. "Grandma, were you teasing me?"
"Or else what? Otherwise, you would still be sad that I am going to meet your grandfather." The Old Madam patted Julien's hand and said, "Don't worry! Although I may only have two years left and I do want to meet your grandfather, I'm not going to meet your grandfather right away. I want to watch you and Syd get married and have a baby. I can see that in two years, right?"
Julien's thin lips quivered. He seemed to want to say something, but seeing his grandmother's expectant eyes, he swallowed what he was going to say and replied, "Yes. Stay assured. Sydney and I will work on it."
Julien was going to say that Sydney wouldn't even get pregnant in two years, so it was impossible for his grandmother to see their baby in two years.
But after thinking twice about it, Julien decided not to say anything about Sydney's condition. He wanted to leave his grandmother with something to look forward to. Therefore, his grandmother might live a little longer.
'Maybe in two years, when Grandma doesn't see our baby, she will live until she sees the baby?'
The Old Madam had no idea of Julien's intentions. Hearing Julien's assurance, she smiled, "Good. By the way, did you have the bracelet sent to Syd?"
"Yes." Julien nodded, "She should have received it, but she probably doesn't know why we gave her the bracelet."
'It's strange. Sydney didn't call to ask about it.'
The Old Madam smiled, "It's okay. Didn't you say she'd be here this afternoon? When she comes, we'll tell her."
"OK." Julien nodded his head.
The Old Madam continued to talk with Julien. The atmosphere in the ward was cozy.
On the other hand, some people were exasperated. They were Luke, Hunter, and Madeline.
Luke and Hunter were pissed off when they received the gifts and candy Julien had sent to them.
They were not stupid. They surely knew why Julien sent them gifts and candy.
Julien was showing off and mocking them.
They had given up on Sydney, but Julien was still provoking them.
Madeline went crazier than Luke and Hunter.
Just after Madeline got out of the hospital, she saw the news that Sydney and Julien were officially back together.
'Could there be more disgusting news?'
Madeline even suspected that Sydney knew that Madeline had a crush on Julien, so Sydney deliberately revealed the news to the media on that day to piss Madeline off! 'Sydney could have done such a thing!'
'It is definitely Sydney!'
Thinking about this, Madeline swept the candy and money gifts off the desk, stood up, and stomped hard on them. She screamed as she stomped. She looked like a crazy woman.
After a long time, Madeline finally calmed down. She heaved. Her arms propped against the desk, and her face was contorted with anger.
Suddenly, Madeline gave a grim smile, "So what if they get back together? People could get divorced after they got married."
She thought that even if Sydney and Julien got back together, they wouldn't live together for long.
Julien and Sydney had divorced once before because they didn't love each other.
Now they had gotten back together. Even if they had feelings for each other, they didn't love each other.
As far as Madeline knew, couples who got divorced once usually ended up in divorce again.
If their first marriage didn't work out, how could they be happy in their second marriage?
Therefore, if there was any misunderstanding or conflict between them, they might break up again.
Madeline believed she could break them apart sooner or later and then steal Julien away from Sydney.
For any man that Madeline laid her eyes on, she must have him.
Madeline's heart pounded violently, and her breath went short as she thought of Julien's handsome face, his power, and his wealth. Ambition filled her eyes.
She would not miss such a wonderful man!
She believed that men would not be faithful to a woman.
What's more, when Madeline thought that she was going to steal Julien from Sydney, she got more excited.
Madeline clenched her fists. Her eyes glowed with confidence.
But Madeline was in no hurry to steal Julien now. She felt she could do it at any time.
The most important thing now was her identity.
With that in mind, Madeline straightened her dress and hair, and then called her assistant in.
"Vice President Raines, what can I do for you?" The assistant was shocked to see the mess in the office. But she quickly regained her composure and asked politely. Madeline held her chin up. She looked superior. "Clean up my office. Remember, no dust is allowed in sight. If I find any dust when I get back, you're dead."
Then Madeline stepped on her high heels, bumped her assistant away, and exited the office.
The assistant rubbed her shoulder, a miserable look on her face.
She hated Madeline so much.
Since she became Madeline's assistant, Madeline always found fault with her.
'The vice president doesn't know anything about business, but she's good at torturing people.'
'I must find a chance to get away from her. She is an idiot.'
The assistant sucked in her breath, gathered herself, and started cleaning the office.
On the other hand, Madeline arrived at Sydney's office. She raised her hand and knocked hard on the door.
Sydney was signing a document at that moment. Suddenly, she heard a bang on the door. She was startled, and her pen slipped and made a long mark on the document. A storm gathered in her eyes. "Who's that?" Sydney asked in a chilly voice.
Although Sydney's voice was cold, her voice was not loud.
The bang on the door was startling.
"It is me." The person outside the door answered in an arrogant voice.
Sydney narrowed her eyes and gave a sneer.
'Only Madeline would be so reckless.'
Even Stephen wouldn't come banging on Sydney's office door.
'She just got out of the hospital, and she's here stirring up trouble. Does she want to go back to the hospital?'
Sydney put down her pen, closed the document, and set it aside. She was going to have Sean reprint the document later.
Fortunately, it wasn't a crucial document. It could be reprinted.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be easy on Madeline.
"What do you want?" Sydney asked as she moved her sore wrist. She hadn't let Madeline in.
Madeline sensed that Sydney didn't want to see her. She was not happy.
But soon, she had a smug smile. Then she pushed open the door and walked into Sydney's office.
Immediately, Sydney's face darkened. Her voice became more stern, "I didn't invite you in! Get out!" Sydney pointed at the door.
