Chapter 2 I’m Not Serving You Anymore

When the doctor concluded that Lyra would never wake up, Julien agreed to Sydney.

However, Julien had always been cold to her.

Sydney lifted her chin and looked straight at him without flinching. “I’m your wife. Why should I move out because she’s coming back?”

Julien suddenly looked at her. His expression sank slowly, and the depths in his eyes became more frightening. “Why? Because according to Lyra, it was you who hit her with your car six years ago!”

Sydney was flabbergasted for a moment before she laughed bitterly. “Would you believe me if I said I didn’t?”

Julien approached her step by step, forcing her into the corner. Then, he said with a cold voice, “Do you think I’ll believe you?”

The man kept staring at her with his dark eyes.

His gaze was suddenly filled with disgust and hatred!

“You’re an incorrigible woman. I want nothing more than to make you pay back a thousand times of what Lyra suffered!” Julien’s face was cold.

Sydney was shocked by the ruthlessness in the man’s eyes.

It had been six years. Even a stone should warm up by then, right?

However, his heart was still cold.

“I didn’t do it!” Sydney pursed her lips tightly.

Julien looked down at her from high above, his dark eyes cold and gloomy without any trace of warmth. “You’re a smart woman. You should know what to do.”

After that, he left, leaving only a room full of cold silence.

Sydney looked at herself in the mirror, pale and tired.

Was she still Sydney Raines?

She used to be such a proud person, but she was so humble in this relationship.

It was ridiculous.

After a long time, she slowly sighed. “It’s time to let yourself go...”

…

The next morning, Julien took Lyra to the hospital for a checkup.

Standing in front of the mirror, Sydney took off the apron she had worn for six years, changed into a white dress, and carried her suitcase downstairs.

Jayden, who was sitting cross-legged watching TV, looked up at her. “Hey! Where are you going?”

Sydney glanced at him and ignored him, walking straight to the door.

When Jayden saw that the situation was not right, he hurriedly went forward to pull her suitcase. His eyes were cold. “Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear me? Have you cleaned the room? Have you cooked yet? Where do you think you’re going so early in the morning?”

The sixteen-year-old boy was neither young nor old. Not only did he have no respect for his sister-in-law, but he even gesticulated wildly as he yelled at her.

Sydney wrenched his fingers away, one by one, with a cold voice. “Listen here, you little runt. From now on, I’m not serving you anymore.”

She did not use much strength, but he shouted deliberately, “Mom! Mom, come over here! This b*tch is bullying me!”

“What happened, Jay?”

Velma’s expression turned livid as soon as she looked downstairs. She cursed and swiped at Sydney with a feather duster. “Oh, god! You b*tch! How dare you bully my son? I’ll beat you to death!”

It was not like that old woman had never beaten her before.

Back then, she endured it for Julien.

However, this time...

Sydney grabbed the feather duster swiftly and threw it to the ground with a forceful yank. Her voice was ice-cold. “I dare you to touch me again.”

Velma was stunned.

Once she came to, she started to shriek. “Sydney Raines, how dare you?! I’m telling my son to divorce you!”

In the past, for the sake of the Old Madam, Sydney always avoided conflicts with Velma since she did not want Julien to dislike her either.

She used to be afraid, but now, she did not care anymore.

She said indifferently, “Whatever.”

Ignoring how the people behind were making a scene, she dragged her suitcase and left the Flint residence.

A red Ferrari was parked outside, and a handsome, bewitching man inside waved at her. “Come in, darling!”

Sydney got in the car, and the two left.
