My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 281 Cayden's Mental State

"Ms. Morgan, we received a police report from Ms. Raines, saying that someone was casting horror images on her window in the middle of the night. The one who did it has been caught, and he told us you hired him to do so. Can you drop by the police station?" the policewoman said in a gentle voice.

When Kate heard that, her face turned pale and it was as if her soul had left her body." What... What? Sydney called the police?"

Zach was not interested in Kate and was just about to leave. However, when he heard that she mentioned Sydney's name, he halted his footsteps.

"Yes. Ms. Raines reported this to the police.

Ms. Morgan, please drop by the police

station," the policewoman said once more.

Kate shook her head. "No... No! I won’t go!"

She was detained once, and she never wanted to return to the police station again.

The policewoman's expression darkened and her voice became sterner than before." Ms. Morgan, if you refuse to come, that means you're not cooperating with our investigation. We can arrest and detain you."

Once Kate heard the words “arrest” and “ detain", her heart sank and she was sweating profusely. She nodded as her grip tightened around her phone. "Don't arrest me. I... I'll come over now."

"Alright." The policewoman regained her smile. "I’ll wait for you at the police station."

After saying that, the policewoman hung up.

Kate was afraid and worried. She was stiff as she walked toward the hospital exit.

Zach narrowed his eyes and he looked toward the direction where she left. He turned in the other direction.

"What took you so long?" in the Maybach, Julien was holding his tablet as he glanced through the finance report. When he saw that Zach had returned, he asked in a rather unhappy tone.

Zach passed the medicine to him." President Flint, I ran into Kate Morgan just now."

"So?" Julien asked, obviously uninterested.

Zach took a sip of water. "She was on the phone, and I heard her mention Ms. Raines, saying that Ms. Raines called the police or something like that."

"What?" Julien’s expression hardened and he put down his tablet. His voice was ladened with concern when he said, "What happened to Sydney?"

"I'm not sure.” Zach shook his head. "I don’t think it’s a big deal, but Kate Morgan is

now going to the police station. I think Ms. Raines is there too."

"Go to the police station now," Julien narrowed his eyes and ordered.

Zach nodded and started the engine.

Within half an hour, they arrived at the police station.

Just when Julien stepped out, he saw Kate walking into the police station anxiously.

He frowned and followed suit.

Once he entered, he saw Sydney, who was sitting in the rest area. He also saw Layden next to her.

Julien pursed his lips and felt irritated.

He realized that a man would always be next to her whenever they met. If it was not Layden, then it would be Luke or Hunter.

Do all of them have nothing better to do?

Why were they always around her?

Julien walked over with a sour expression. Just when he was approaching them, a policewoman brought a frightened Kate over to Sydney to Layden.

Sydney stood up and she stared right at Kate with cold eyes. "Why did you hire someone to cast horror images on my window?"

“Cast horror images on your window?” Julien repeated.

When Sydney heard him, she turned around in surprise. "Why are you here?"

Layden stood up as well. He took a step forward and stood before Sydney, as though he wanted to hide her behind him.

Something flashed across Julien's eyes when he saw Layden's actions. He directly walked toward Sydney and stood in front of her.

Layden had no way to block him.

Unless Layden pushed him.

This was the police station. Would Layden do that?

Julien cast a mocking glare at Layden

Layden tightened both his fists and a bloodlust appeared in his eyes.

He wanted to kill Julien.

That way, he would no longer feel small in front of this man.

More importantly, this man was the biggest obstacle for him to get Sydney.

Julien noted Layden's gaze and his eyes darkened. He turned toward Sydney instead.

Did she notice how dangerous Layden could be?

"President Flint, why are you looking at me?" Sydney saw that Julien said nothing and was just staring at her, so she frowned and asked.

Something flashed across Julien's eyes and he said, "I heard that you're in the police station, so I came to take a look.

What’s up with the horror images on your window?"

When he asked, he swept a glance toward kate.

Kate met his cold gaze and shuddered. The fear on her face became more obvious than before.

Sydney saw the threat that Julien imposed on Kate and said nothing about it. She replied, "This is none of your business, President Flint. You don’t have to concern yourself with it.”

When Sydney said that, a smug smile appeared on Layden's face and he seemed to be in a better mood.

It had the opposite effect on Julien.

He was concerned and came all the way. This was how she chose to repay him instead.

Of course, he would be in a bad mood.

"You haven’t answered my question. Why did you hire someone to do that?" Sydney turned back to Kate and repeated her question.

Kate dared not look into her eyes. She said softly, "I... I..."

"Stop stuttering. Tell the truth!" Julien roared with impatience.

Sydney rolled her eyes at him.

She already made it clear that this was none of his business.

Yet he pretended as though she did not say it and even urged the offender in her stead.

Layden gave Julien a cold glare and said nothing.

Only he knew what he was suppressing at the moment.

Among the few of them, the one Kate was most afraid of was Julien.

When she heard Julien, she shuddered and did as she was told. "I... I only wanted to scare you.”

"Scare me?” Sydney was obviously in doubt. "That's all?”

Kate quickly nodded. "Yes.”

Sydney stared at her for a short while and became rather certain that she was not lying. Her face darkened as she said, "Why did you do that? I don't think I did anything to you."

"You did!” Kate exclaimed, as though she had been triggered. She looked at Sydney furiously.

"You tarnished my name during the banquet! I did this to get myself some justice!" "Justice?” Julien said in a stern voice, "You tarnished your own name because you lacked brains and insisted on supporting Lyra. What does it have anything to do with Sydney? What right do you have to ask for justice?"

Sydney looked at him in bewilderment.

It was rare for him to stand on her side, and she was not used to it.

Layden lowered his head to hide his expression.

"President Raines, are you standing on Sydney’s side?" Kate looked at Julien in disbelief. She could not believe that Julien was helping Sydney and not Lyra.

"I love her, so of course. I'll stand on her side," Julien gave Sydney an affectionate gaze as he replied.

Sydney did not expect his sudden confession in such a situation. She was stunned and quickly avoided his gaze.

Layden tightened his fist further. His bloodlust from before grew heavier than ever.

Of course, Kate was equally as shocked. " You... Do you love Sydney?"

She pointed at Julien, then pointed at Sydney. She then asked in a loud voice," How about Lyra?"

"This is my matter. You don't have the right to ask." Julien's expression darkened.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Kate shut her mouth and her confidence from before disappeared. She said, "I... I'm only concerned about Lyra.”
