My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 92 Kate's Fear

At that moment, Jayden recalled the day before yesterday when his brother forced him to apologize to Lyra.

He clearly did not do anything wrong, but his brother thought he was at fault just because she cried a little.

The way she was acting now was almost identical to that time.

While he was deep in his thoughts, he heard Julien's voice. "What are you standing there for? Let's go!"

Jayden came to his senses and jogged over with a basketball in his arms. "Where are the reporters?"

"Julien sent them away," Lyra replied softly.

Jayden then looked at her with mixed feelings, as if he was seeing through her.

His gaze made Lyra uncomfortable, and she touched her face. "Jayden, why are you looking at me like that? Do I have something on my face?"

"No." Jayden looked away and shook his head.

Lyra smiled." I thought there was something on my face."

"Alright, let's get in the car first. More reporters might come later," Julien said while taking her by the shoulders.

Lyra nodded with a hum.

Suddenly, Jayden said, "I won't go with you guys, Julien. I'm going somewhere else."

"Where?" Julien looked at him.

Jayden's eyes flashed. "That's my secret. Anyway, I'll go back later. Bye!"

After saying that, he ran towards the road with the basketball in his arms, stopped a cab, and left.

Seeing Julien's frown, Lyra smiled. "Is Jayden going to see a girl he likes? He was reading a letter the last time I saw him."

Julien raised his brows, recalling the letter he saw in Jayden's room the day before yesterday.

Was it a love letter?

"What are you thinking about, Julien?" Lyra gently bumped the man with her shoulder.

He returned to his senses and cleared his throat. "It's nothing. Let's go."

"Alright." Lyra smiled and answered.

When they got into the car, Julien stared straight ahead at the road and suddenly asked, "Lyra, does that thing online have anything to do with you?"

Lyra's heart clenched at those words, but on her face, she looked sad. "Of course not. Julien, do you suspect

that I did it?"

Julien pursed his thin lips. He did not admit it, but he also did not deny it. "I saw the original post online. The picture below was a screenshot of Sydney and me watching the game. You said you were watching the live broadcast."

Sydney was right about one thing - that Lyra could indeed do such a thing out of jealousy.

After all, it had happened before.

Lyra's eyes gradually grew hazy. "Julien, how could you think that about me?

"Yes, I watched the live broadcast. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that you were hurt. However, just because I watched the live broadcast doesn't mean I did it. I promised you that I wouldn't target Ms. Raines. How could I let you down? What if you don't want me anymore?"

After saying that, she turned away angrily and looked out the window to ignore him.

Julien saw her sulking out of the corner of his eye and could not bear to see her like that. He also regretted it a little.

Perhaps he was really overthinking.

"I'm sorry, Lyra. I shouldn't have doubted you."

Julien parked the car by the side of the road and unbuckled his seatbelt to go over and hug her.

Aggrieved, Lyra buried herself in the man's arms and choked. "It's okay. I know I don't have a good relationship with Ms. Raines, so it's only natural that everyone will suspect me if something happens to her. I'm used to it."

Julien’s heart ached more when he heard her, and he patted her back. "No, I won't ever suspect you again."

"Really?" Lyra raised her moist eyes to look at him.

The man nodded. "Really!"

Lyra finally smiled. "Okay, let's drive, Julien. We'll obstruct traffic if we stop here, and it might cause the cars at the back to get into an accident."

"Alright." Julien released her, refastened his seatbelt, and started the car.

It seemed like it was really a misunderstanding. Lyra was such a kind person. How could she have done such a thing? 1

What she did at the resort that time was just a momentary lapse of judgment.

With that train of thought, Julien's frown went away, and his suspicions of Lyra were dispelled.

Seeing that, Lyra lowered her head slightly, her lips curling into a grin.

Soon, they arrived at Flint Corporation.

Julien could see a group of reporters by the main entrance from a distance away.

Hence, he narrowed his eyes, turned the car around, and drove it to one of the more hidden side entrances of the building. Then, he brought Lyra in through the side entrance and took the elevator to the top floor.

Zach was already waiting in front of the president's office. When he saw the two coming out of the elevator, he nodded. "President Flint, Ms. Madden."

"Hello, Zach." Lyra greeted with a smile.

Zach smiled in response and looked at Julien." President Flint, I've conveyed what you asked me to investigate. I believe we'll have the results soon."

Julien hummed in acknowledgment and entered the office.

Lyra followed closely. "Julien, what are you going to do after you find out who made the post?"

"That depends on Sydney." Julien pulled his chair back and replied, "She's the biggest victim."

Lyra's expression stiffened.

What did he mean by Sydney was the biggest victim?

Was what happened six years ago false?

At that moment, Lyra's phone suddenly rang.

She calmed down and took out her phone. When she looked at the name on the screen, a glint flashed in her eyes, and she smiled at Julien. "Julien, I have to take this call. It's from my dad."

Julien nodded without doubting her.

With that, Lyra took the phone and walked toward the balcony. Then, she closed the balcony door before answering, "Hi, Kate."

"Lyra, did you see the news on the Internet?" Kate said excitedly.

Lyra's expression was indifferent, but her voice sounded like she was astonished. "Kate, don't tell me that you were behind it?"

"It was me," Kate said smugly.

Lyra bit her lip. "Kate, how could you-"

"What's wrong, Lyra? Did I do something wrong?" Kate frowned in confusion.

Lyra lowered her eyes. "Of course. You suddenly exposed what happened six years ago, and now Ms. Raines is being bashed on the Internet."

"I know. That was exactly my intention. I want everyone to know what kind of person she really is," Kate said indifferently.

Lyra sighed. "Oh, you shouldn't have. Sigh... Kate, you're in trouble. Julien is investigating the person who made the post."

Kate's heart sank at those words, but she quickly regained her calm. "What's President Flint investigating that for? Is he trying to help Sydney? How could he do that? He's your fiancee."

"I don't think so." Lyra shook her head. "It could also be for him and me. After all, this is a private matter between us."

At that moment, Kate's expression shifted. Her hands and feet went cold, and her voice began to tremble from fear. "T-Then what should I do?"

She had already made the post and hired people to make it viral. There was no way to take it down.

For a moment, Kate could not help but regret how impulsive she was.

She only wanted to mess with Sydney, but she exposed Julien's private affairs instead.

When Kate thought of Julien's usual tactics in the business world, her face turned ashen with fear.

Lyra sighed again. "I don't know what to do either.

You were too impulsive, Kate."

Kate clutched her phone tightly and said, sobbing,¹ Lyra, you have to help me. I did this for you. You have to save me, Lyra!"
