My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 282 Detention Again

"Enough!" Sydney rubbed her forehead and her tone of voice was impatient. "You should worry if you'll be detained instead.”

"Detained?” Kate's expression changed in an instant. "Why would I be detained? I already came to the police station!"

"Are you just playing dumb or stupid?" Layden crossed his arms and gave her a cold gaze. "You hired someone to cast horror images on Sydney's window, which is a crime. The offense of criminal intimidation."

“No... What do you mean by intimidation? I didn't intimidate her! I only wanted to scare her! It's a prank at best!" Kate exclaimed in panic.

When Sydney saw her reaction, she knew that Kate was speaking the truth. She did not know that it was a crime.

She had met many ignorant people throughout her life, but never to this extent.

Sydney looked at Kate as though she had given up on her.

"Officer, please tell her if she has committed a crime."

"Sure." The policeman, who was silent all along, stepped forward. "Ms. Morgan, you indeed committed the crime of criminal intimidation. If you only did it once, then it could be a prank. Since you repeatedly did it, you clearly had the intention to intimidate her."

"Exactly. Especially since it's in the middle of the night. A lot of people might suffer from these horror images. Some of them might fall, and some might even get mentally ill." Cayden looked at Kate as though he was looking at a corpse.

Julien glanced at Sydney's abdomen and added. "And Sydney is also pregnant. Your intimidation can cause her a miscarriage. Can you bear the consequences?”

That was his child, and only Sydney had the right to decide if it should stay. Others had no right.

Kate should be glad that the child is fine, or he would make the entire Morgan family suffer.

However, now that Sydney did not go for an abortion, did she plan to keep it?

When Julien thought about that, he felt a sense of joy and anticipation.

Their child must be adorable.

More importantly, she might get back together with him for the child’s sake.

"I didn't intend to do that!” Kate violently shook her head and took a few steps backward, fear written all over her face. "I only wanted to scare her. I didn't intend to make her mentally ill or cause her a miscarriage. Moreover, she’s perfectly fine now!" Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Kate pointed at Sydney. “Look at her! She’s fine! So why do you say that I have committed a crime?"

Layden frowned and was about to say something.

Sydney sneered and spoke before he could, "In this world, some people who committed crimes will think that what they did isn't considered a crime since their victims are fine. Officer, what kind of punishment will she get?"

The policeman gave it some thought and said, "What she said was somewhat correct. Even though she committed criminal intimidation, the harm done was not much. Her punishment should not be

too heavy, and she will not have to go to jail. She might just be detained. The prosecution office will decide on the detention period."

When Julien heard that, he narrowed his eyes.

Sydney nodded. "Sure. Then just lock her up for now. Let me know when the final decision is made."

"Of course," the policeman replied with a smile and approached Kate.

Kate did not want to be detained, so she retreated and even thought of running away.

Just as Kate took a step backward, Cayden stretched out his leg.

Kate tripped on it and fell to the ground, giving the policeman a good opportunity to restrain her.

Kate knew that she could no longer run and her face was pale as paper.

She quickly glanced at Sydney and said, ’ Sydney, I made a mistake. Please, please just let me go. I don't want to be detained. Please..."

Kate cried her heart out and she looked pathetic.

However, none of them took pity on her.

Sydney looked at her with indifference. "If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? We’re all adults.

Since you're already an adult, you should be responsible for your actions. I don't think you know what you did wrong, but are just afraid of detention. You begged me because of that, didn't you? You didn't think you did anything wrong, am I right?"

Sydney lowered her head and got closer to Kate.

Kate looked at Sydney's clear eyes, which seemed as though they could look through her. She stopped crying and looked away without saying anything else.

Sydney sneered. “Since you said nothing, that means I'm right.”

Kate wanted to say something, but nothing came out in the end. She lowered her head dejectedly.

The policeman quickly brought her to the interrogation room and put her together with Felix Stone. They were in the middle of writing a detailed report.

As the one who called the police, Sydney could leave the police station. She just had to come back when the results were announced.

"Sydney, let's go," Layden said to her.

Sydney nodded. "Let's go."

“I’ll leave later. I still have some business here," Julien said to Sydney all of a sudden.

Layden narrowed his eyes and looked at him in disdain. "President Flint, whether you're leaving or not is none of our business. You don't have to tell us anything."

Sydney nodded in agreement.

Julien's eyes darkened. He swept Layden a cold glance and turned his attention to Sydney once more.

His voice was gentle as he said, "I have something to say to you." "What is it?" Sydney looked at him curiously.

"It's not convenient here. Let's head over there." Julien pointed at the corner in front of them.

Sydney frowned and showed her reluctance.

Julien saw it and tugged on her arm instead. “Come with me."

As he said that, he was already pulling her toward the corner.

When Cayden saw that, his face hardened and he grabbed Sydney's other arm." Sydney, don't go."

Before Sydney could answer, Julien's gaze fell onto Cayden's hand. His voice was cold

when he said, "Let go!”

"You let go! You don't have any right to touch her!" Layden did not let go but tightened his grip instead. He looked right at Julien as he shouted.

Julien was enraged at his words, his expression gloomy. The aura around him also became oppressing and terrifying.

Of course, it was the same for Layden

The two men looked at each other and they looked like kids.

However, Layden was quickly suppressed by Julien's intense oppression.

After all, he was not like Julien and had not fought through the evils of people in the business world. After all these years of training, Julien had an unquestionable demeanor and the aura of a ruler.

Cayden was quickly defeated.

However, Cayden was still upset. He suddenly had the intention to ruin everything, and he tightened his grip on Sydney’s arm. He kept increasing his strength, as though he was going to break Sydney's arm into two.

"Ouch..." Sydney suddenly exclaimed and lowered her head to look at Cayde's grip on her. "Cay, let go. It's painful!”

When Cayden heard that, he came back to his senses and finally noticed what he had done. His pupils constricted and he quickly apologized. "Sydney, sorry!"

Just as he wanted to let go, Julien pulled Sydney to his side.

"Are you alright?" Julien looked at Sydney with a worried expression.

Sydney could tell how worried he seemed and looked away. "I'm fine."

“Let me see." Julien was still worried and wanted to lift up her sleeve.
