Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!
Chapter 445 A Good Listener

"She is indeed my father's mistress." Julien rubbed his eyebrows and said.

Sydney's eyes widened. "What? She is your father's mistress?"

"Yeah."

"But why are you still treating her..."

"She is not the other woman as you think, because she didn't destroy the love between my parents. Actually, my parents didn't love each other. They got married just because of family interests, and it was their responsibility to have a child. After I was born, my parents separated. Later, my father knew Velma and fell in love with her. " Julien leaned back against the stone wall.

Sydney nodded understandingly. "I see."

It was the first time that Julien had told Sydney about his parents.

'Unexpectedly, his parents didn't love each other.'

"And then? After your father fell in love with Velma, didn't your mother get angry?" Sydney asked again, looking at Julien.

'Even if she didn't love Julien's father, he was her husband anyway.'

'It should be impossible for her to ignore the fact that her husband found a mistress during their marriage.'

However, Julien shook his head. "My mother was not angry, as she was happy to see my father fall in love with Velma." "What?" Sydney's mouth twitched.

'She was happy to see her husband fall in love with his mistress?'

'Well... Was Julien's mother too generous?'

"You're shocked, right?" Julien looked at her and smiled.

Sydney nodded. "It's really shocking. If I were your mother, I would definitely not have been so generous."

Hearing this, Julien suddenly remembered that four months ago, he had asked her to move out to give the place to Lyra.

'It's no wonder that Sydney didn't ask for a divorce during our six years' loveless marriage until I wanted to bring Lyra home. "What are you thinking about?" Seeing Julien's blank expression, Sydney reached out to wave her hand in front of him. Julien blinked his eyes and pulled his wandering mind back. "Nothing."

When Sydney found that he didn't want to explain, she didn't ask again and reverted to the previous topic.

"By the way, why was your mother happy to see them fall in love? Although your mother and father didn't love each other, Velma was a threat to your mother's position, as your father loved Velma." Sydney sat down, with her legs crossed.

Julien took another bite of the biscuit. "My mother had always wanted to leave the Flint family. As long as my father decided to marry Velma, my mother and father could divorce. This was what my mother had been dreaming about. So, my mother was very grateful to Velma. Besides, to help my father marry Velma earlier, my mother even planned to go to the old residence to improve my grandmother's opinion of Velma." "Then?" Sydney arched her back, rested her elbows on her thighs and put her chin on her palms, waiting for him to tell the following story.

She seemed to have never talked with him so peacefully before.

"But the night before my mother went to see my grandmother, my mother committed suicide because of something." When Julien said this, he clenched his hand suddenly. The plastic packaging of the biscuits was squeezed so hard that there was a harsh sound.

Sydney's mouth widened in shock." Committed suicide?"

After learning that Velma was not his biological mother, Sydney guessed that probably his biological mother had passed away.

But she never thought that his biological mother had committed suicide.

"Yes." Julien lowered his head, making it difficult to see his expression.

"Did your mother's suicide have something to do with Velma?" Sydney asked.

Julien shook his head. "It had nothing to do with Velma. She even didn't know that my mother wanted her to be with my father. So, since my mother's death, Velma has been blaming herself, as she thinks that it is because of her that my mother committed suicide. She has always felt guilty for my mother's death, and that's why she treats me as her own son. Even when she was pregnant with Jayden, she wanted to abort him, but I stopped her." "I got it. After hearing what you said, my opinion of Velma has changed a bit." Sydney raised her eyebrows.

Julien chuckled. "Although she has many shortcomings and is not an absolutely good person, she is not a bad person."

Sydney did not deny it.

In fact, during the six years when Sydney lived in the Flint family, Velma had only scolded Sydney, but she had never beaten Sydney.

Only after Sydney and Julien divorced did Velma come to Sydney several times and try to beat her.

"Don't you eat?" Sydney asked when she saw Julien suddenly put down the biscuits.

"I'm almost full. I still feel dizzy, so I want to sleep." "Okay." Sydney helped him to lie down and covered him with a quilt.

Julien looked at her. "When will you sleep?"

"I'll go to bed later. My hair is still wet." Sydney pointed at her hair.

Julien nodded and closed his eyes.

Sydney stood up, went back to the fire and added some more firewood. Then she sat down to dry her hair.

After about half an hour, her hair became dry. She also felt sleepy and yawned.

Today was so scary, as they had been escaping death. From morning to night, she was in fear. When she relaxed now, she felt tired.

Rubbing her heavy eyes, she added firewood again to make sure that the fire would not go out in the middle of the night. Then she walked towards Julien. She held another quilt and lay down about half a meter away from him.

After all, the place covered by hay was not big, so if she didn't sleep near Julien, she could only sleep on the cold ground.

Even if she had a quilt, she would definitely catch a cold if sleeping on the ground. So, she could only lie down next to Julien.

'Anyway, he and I each is covered by a quilt, so we don't sleep in the same quilt.'

The quilt covering her had a musty smell, which was not very pleasant. Sydney, who had never used such a quilt, was not accustomed to it.

However, as she was in such conditions at present, she could only endure it.

Then she took a deep breath, tried her best to ignore the smell, and closed her eyes.

She was so exhausted that even if the quilt smelled bad, she fell asleep quickly. Only her breathing could be heard in this quiet place.

At this moment, Julien beside her suddenly opened his eyes. He looked not sleepy at all. Obviously, he hadn't fallen asleep and had pretended to be sleeping.

Julien's eyes fell on Sydney's face. Staring at her peaceful face, he propped up his body with one hand and then moved towards her.

In order not to wake her up, he moved very lightly, like a thief. While he was moving, he looked at her to see if she was awakened.

When he finally moved close to her, she didn't wake up. Then he lay down with satisfaction, stretched out his arm to hug her, and closed his eyes.

The next day, when Sydney woke up, it had stopped raining outside.

The moment she opened her eyes and saw that the roof was not the familiar ceiling of her bedroom, but stones, she got shocked," What happened?" 'Why am I here?'

Sydney sat up subconsciously, and then she recalled why she had come here.

She suddenly remembered what had happened yesterday.

She couldn't help rubbing her temples to calm herself down.

'I am so sleepy that I forgot how Julien and I came here yesterday.'

Thinking of Julien, Sydney hurriedly turned her head to see how he was.

When she saw Julien sleep so close to her, she became stunned.

'What happened?'

'Why does he sleep so close to me?'
