Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! -
Chapter 474 She Began to Care about Julien
Sydney finally came back to her senses. She stood up and looked at Hunter with displeasure. "What are you doing?"
Hunter didn't expect her to have such a strong reaction. Blinking his eyes uneasily, he withdrew his hand. "1 just helped to wipe the cream off your face."
Fearing that she wouldn't believe him, he handed the tissue to her.
Seeing that there was indeed some cream on it, Sydney knew she had misunderstood him. She tried to calm herself and sat down again. "I'm sorry, I thought you..." "You thought that I wanted to take advantage of you, right?" Hunter chuckled.
Sydney curled her lips. "Don't do this again, or others might misunderstand our relationship. You can just tell me and I'll wipe the cream off myself."
"I just did you a little favor, and I am sure this won't cause any misunderstandings. But since you've said so, I won't do that kind of thing again." Hunter shrugged his shoulders and agreed. Only he himself knew how regretful he was.
He had wanted to get closer to her through occasional ambiguous actions, so that he would eventually win her heart.
Unexpectedly, she was so vigilant that she didn't give him any opportunities to have physical contact with her.
It seemed that he had to take his time to chase after her.
Hunter shook his head with a bitter smile.
An hour later, they finished having their dinner.
Sydney paid the bill, packed two strawberry cakes and was ready to go back.
As soon as they went out of the restaurant, a blast of cold wind blew over, and Sydney couldn't help sneezing and even shivering all over.
Hunter asked, "Are you feeling cold?"
"A little." Sydney nodded and looked up at the sky.
There were no stars in the sky, not even the moon. It was dark and depressing, and it seemed to rain soon.
While Sydney was lost in her own thought, she suddenly felt something heavy on her shoulder.
She quickly withdrew her eyes and looked down, only to find that there was a coat on her shoulder.
It looked quite familiar, and she guessed it must be Hunter's.
Sydney turned to look at him. Sure enough, he had taken off his coat, leaving only a shirt and a knitted vest. "Why did you give me your clothes?" she asked in surprise "Aren't you cold? As a man, I should take good care of you." Hunter smiled.
Sydney frowned with disapproval. "Even so, it's inappropriate to do this. I don't want you to catch a cold because of me. You should take your coat back and put it on.' While saying this, she took off his coat and handed it to Hunter.
But Hunter put the coat back onto her shoulders, and in order to prevent her from taking it off again, he held her shoulders tightly and said, "Well, be a good girl and put the coat on. I am a strong man and I won't catch a cold so easily."
"But..."
Pursing her lips, Sydney was about to say something, but a low and cold voice suddenly sounded. "Would you please step aside? You guys are in my way."
This voice...
Sydney's eyes widened. She turned back and saw Julien and Zach standing nearby, looking at them with a straight face.
That familiar voice was indeed Julien's.
Why was he here?
He should be in hospital now.
This question was quickly asked by Hunter, who looked at Julien smilingly. "Julien, good evening. What a coincidence that you also had dinner in this restaurant! But shouldn't you be in the hospital? Why did you suddenly come out?"
Julien remained silent, and his dark eyes fell on Sydney's shoulder.
Sydney sensed it, and she subconsciously used more strength to shake Hunter's hands off her shoulders. At the same time, she took his coat off and threw it back into his arms. She then turned to look at Julien and said, "Well... this coat is..."
"Sydney, you have nothing to do with him. Why did you bother to explain to him?" Hunter squinted at Sydney, as if he wanted to see something from her face.
Sydney was stunned after hearing his words, but then her face darkened. Hunter was right. She was no longer Julien's wife, and even if she was with another man, it was none of his business. Then why did she explain all this to him?
Was she crazy?
At this thought, Sydney lowered her eyes and fell silent.
At this moment, Julien finally spoke in a cold and indifferent voice, "Please go on, and I won't bother you two."
Then he walked towards his Maybach.
Zach nodded at Sydney and Hunter politely and followed behind Julien.
Hunter couldn't help being astonished.
What was going on?
Julien saw his intimate action with Sydney. However, instead of stopping them, he let them continue!
Julien seemed to have totally changed into another person.
Besides, Julien didn't look angry or jealous after seeing his coat on Sydney's shoulders.
What the hell was going on? Had Julien lost his mind?
Hunter looked at Julien's back with a shocked expression.
When Sydney saw Julien leave, she became flustered and ran after him. 'Wait a minute."
Julien had got into his car. Hearing her voice, he stopped closing the car door.
Sydney trotted to his car door, gasped slightly, and then she looked at him and said, "Well..."
What do you want to say?" Julien asked.
Sydney bit her lower lip.
Actually, she didn't know what to say.
She just subconsciously chased him after seeing him leave.
Even she herself didn't know why she had done such a thing.
She was even angry that he didn't have any reaction after seeing her with Hunter.
"If you have nothing to say, I'm going back to the hospital." Julien put his hand on the door handle and said.
Sydney blinked and stopped thinking nonsense. "I just want to ask why you came out of the hospital. You haven't been discharged yet."
"A friend of my father asked me out to negotiate about the cooperation of a project, so I asked for three hours' leave."
Julien looked at her and said in a flat voice.
Then he asked again, "Do you have anything else to say? If not, I will close the door."
"No." Sydney shook her head.
She really had nothing more to say.
After all, she caught up with him on impulse, and what she said just now was the only thing she had racked her brain to come up with.
Julien nodded and closed the door. "Let's leave now."
"OK." Zach started the car.
Seeing his car gradually disappear into the traffic, Sydney slowly clenched her hands into fists, feeling complicated.
Hunter, who had been standing in situ, walked over with the coat on his arm. "Do you still want my coat?"
Sydney shook her head. "No."
"I guess you won't take it either." Hunter smiled bitterly.
He could tell that she began to care about Julien.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have subconsciously returned the coat to him and distanced herself from him upon seeing Julien. She was afraid that Julien would misunderstand her relationship with him. She loved Julien so deeply before the divorce, so it was possible for her to fall in love with him again, and the probability was high.
Maybe Julien touched her heart again after rescuing her from the cliff.
After all, it was rare to have a person who would risk his life for you. It was understandable for Sydney to love Julien whole-heatedly.
'1 am going to win the bet I've made with her...' Hunter thought.
But he wasn't happy at all.
However, one thing that cheered him up was Julien's cold attitude towards Sydney tonight.
With this in mind, Hunter put on his coat and asked tentatively, "Sydney, did you have an argument with Julien?"
