Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! -
Chapter 475 Julien Allowed Hunter to Chase Sydney
"He and I had an argument?" Sydney frowned in confusion, "We didn't."
"Really?" Hunter didn't believe it.
Sydney nodded solemnly, "Absolutely not. But why do you ask?"
"Julien's attitude was so strange." Hunter looked at the room where Julien was in earlier, his eyes slightly narrowed and his eyes full of suspicion.
Sydney also looked over at the room, "He was."
"Right?" Hunter rubbed his chin. He had a skeptical look on his face. "If it was before, seeing we are together, Julien would definitely have come over and stirred things up, because he never allows you to be with another man. But today he didn't do anything. He seemed happy to see you with me."
Sydney didn't say anything but just clenched her lips.
She had noticed what Hunter had said as well. And she wasn't happy about that.
"So you think Julien and I had an arguement?" Sydney clenched her fists.
Hunter nodded, "Yes. Otherwise, I can't understand why Julien would be like that."
"Because he gave up on me." Sydney dropped her eyes.
Hunter froze, "What?"
"Julien gave up on me. He's not going to get me back." Sydney's palms squeezed tighter.
Hunter was stunned, "Really?"
"Yes." Sydney replied.
Hunter's mouth dropped open, "How is that possible? Julien is so crazy about you, and he's so domineering. Once he gets his eyes on you, he'll never give up."
"That's what he told me himself." Sydney looked at Hunter.
On the day Julien woke up, Julien told Sydney himself.
He said that he would never ask her to come back to him again.
She remembered it particularly clearly. She should be happy about that. After all, Julien wouldn't bother her anymore.
However, somehow, she didn't feel happy. She felt a sense of loss and bitterness inside. She had a sour feeling that she couldn't tell.
Looking at Sydney's serious expression, Hunter believed her. He believed that she was telling the truth that Julien was not going to pursue her anymore and that Julien was really going to let her go.
Then Hunter felt it even more unbelievable. He was shocked.
"I can't believe Julien gave up on you.
How..." Hunter's mouth dropped open. He couldn't calm down for a while.
He was sure that something had happened to Julien. Otherwise, Julien couldn't have given up on Sydney.
"All right, Hunter. It's getting late. I'm going home." Sydney raised her wrist and looked at her watch.
Hunter suppressed the shock in his heart and smiled, "I'll drive you back."
"No, thanks. I'll take a cab. My neighborhood is not on your way home. It's too much trouble to drive me back and then back to your house."
Sydney then walked to the side of the road and stopped a cab. She got into the cab and waved at Hunter, "Bye."
She was resolute and quick, leaving no chance for Hunter to insist on dropping her off.
Hunter sighed helplessly, "Bye."
Sydney rolled up the window and said to the driver, "We can go now."
"Sure," the driver then drove off.
Standing on the curb, Hunter watched the cab go away. His brows furrowed slightly. He seemed to be lost in thought.
After a few moments, he took out his cell phone and dialed Julien's number.
"What's up?" Julien's deep voice sounded.
Hunter was now leaning against his car door. "Julien, what's happened to you?"
"What do you mean?" Julien asked rhetorically. He had changed into a blue and white striped hospital gown. He was sitting on the couch in his ward, his brows furrowed slightly.
Hunter took a breath, "I heard Sydney say you gave her up. Is that true?"
"Yes." Julien nodded. He admitted he'd said that.
Hunter's hand on the phone tightened instantly, "Julien, this is so not you! You never give up easily. So I'm asking you what has happened to you."
"What's the point in asking the question?" Julien curled his lips. A hint of cold mockery flashed across his eyes. "Don't you like Sydney? You should be happy that I gave up on her. Why are you asking? You hope I won't give up?"
"Of course, I'm glad you let off Sydney. Now I have one less competitor, which means my chances have become greater. But Julien, you're my friend. You giving up on Sydney and me caring about you are two different matters. I know you. You would never have given up on Sydney if nothing had happened to you. So tell me, Julien. What's happened to you?" Hunter tightened his brows.
Sydney lowered her eyes and answered nonchalantly, "Nothing happened. I'm just tired, so I'm giving up. If you like Sydney, take care of her. I won't interfere." Then Julien hung up the phone abruptly.
"Hello? Hello?" Hunter shouted twice into the phone, but he got no answer. Then he took the phone off his ear and found Julien had hung up. He felt indignant, "That guy is so annoying!" Hunter scratched his hair in annoyance and put the phone down. He got into his car. It took him a while to regain his composure. His eyebrows furrowed. He was thinking about something. He sensed there was definitely something wrong with Julien. And it was serious.
Then Hunter made another call.
On the other end of the line came a yawning, sleepy voice, "Mr. Cohen, can I help you?"
"Yes. I need you to investigate a matter for me." Hunter said seriously.
The man on the other end of the line heard the seriousness of Hunter's tone, and he immediately got attentive, "What is it?"
"I need you to secretly investigate what has happened to Julien recently." Hunter demanded.
The man on the other end of the line responded, "No problem, Mr. Cohen. I'll give you the results in two days."
Hunter then hung up the phone.
At the hospital, Julien dropped his phone and leaned back on the couch, his right arm over his eyes. He looked lonely and solemn.
No one could have imagined how much his heart ached when he had just told Hunter to go after Sydney and that he wouldn't interfere. How he would have pushed the woman he loved into the arms of another man if he hadn't been left with three years of his life.
"Mr. Flint," Zach pushed open the door to Julien's ward.
Julien lowered his arm and straightened up. "Is it done?"
"Yes." Zach nodded.
Julien nodded slightly and stood up. "I'm going home. Get me discharged from the hospital later."
"What?" Zach was stunned. Then he looked at Julien in surprise, "Mr. Flint, you're going home?" "Yes." Julien walked toward his bed.
Zach followed behind him. "Why? You haven't recovered yet. It's not time for you to leave the hospital."
"I can recover at home." Julien sat on the side of the bed and rubbed his brows. "The thing is, I don't want Sydney to take care of me anymore." "Why?" Zach was confused.
When Sydney said she would take care of Julien, Julien was so happy because he could spend a lot of time with Sydney.
Why did Julien change his mind now?
Julien replied nonchalantly, "I've decided to let go of Sydney. I should stay away from her."
Zach instantly understood what Julien meant. He had mixed feelings in his heart.
