Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Chapter 268 We Can't Go Back

When he received her letter that said she wanted to confess to the person she liked, his heart was stimulated and he was admitted to the hospital after a sudden heart attack. Half a month later, he barely mustered enough energy to write back to her, asking her to meet him. He wanted to tell her the truest thoughts in his heart.

It just so happened that at that time, the hospital said there was a suitable heart for him. Now that he knew that he could continue living, he was determined to confess to her. Of course, he could not do that without a heart and disturbing her. After all, he was a dying man.

The day she received his letter and called him, it happened to be the day of his surgery. After the surgery, he recuperated for a month and could finally get out of bed.

Then, he told Zach to push him to the meeting place, where Lyra was waiting.

Since he had never seen what Maple Leaf looked like and Lyra just so happened to mention a few things they said in their letters, he believed that she was Maple Leaf.

Sydney understood Julien’s words and widened her eyes in shock. "You’re saying that Lyra impersonated me to meet with you?"

"Yes." Julien nodded. "Six years ago, I made an appointment with you at 10 in the morning, but the one who came was Lyra."

"No, you clearly said to meet at 2 PM. I waited from noon till evening, but you never came!" Sydney stared at him closely.

Julien frowned. "When did I say 2 PM? I remember very clearly that I said 10 AM in the phone call six years ago."

"Yes, you said 10 AM, but on the morning of the meeting, you sent a message saying that you couldn't go in the morning, and changed the time to 2 PM.” Sydney clenched her fists.

"I never sent you any message that day," Julien replied.

Sydney shook her head. "That's impossible. Sunny told me you sent a text message."

"Someone else told you?" Julien narrowed his eyes. "You mean you didn't see the message with your own eyes?"

Sydney hummed. "Yeah..."

Looking at the man's darkening expression, she more or less realized that she was cheated back then!

Julien did not send a text message. It was something Sunny fabricated out of thin air to prevent her from meeting him in the morning. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

As for why Sunny would do that, Sydney already guessed the reason. It was to help Lyra!

When she was still in her freshman and sophomore year, Buddy and her were still in correspondence. Everyone in the dorm knew about it and even laughed at her for this reason. What kind of era were they living in? They were still using letters to communicate with each other?

Lyra was one of them. She even peeked at her letters with Buddy without permission. However, when Sydney found out, Lyra did not feel ashamed at all and even beat around the bush to ask her about Buddy. Sydney did not think much about it at that time, but thinking back on it now, Lyra might have already known that Buddy was Julien. That was why she pretended to be Sydney to meet him.

At that thought, Sydney's eyes suddenly reddened in anger and hatred.

She never thought that a person could be so shameless!

When Julien saw her body trembling with anger, he reached out and tried to soothe her.

However, Sydney slapped his hand away indifferently.

Julien looked at his hand that reddened from being slapped, and his eyes dimmed for a moment.

She still had not forgiven him...

He put down his hand. "Now, do you understand why I said I always loved you, not Lyra?"

Sydney's eyes flashed and she said nothing.

Julien looked at her, feeling a little nervous.

He did not know how she would reply.

Would she believe him?

If she did, would she forgive him?

The atmosphere gradually stiffened.

Sydney remained silent.

Julien’s heart also grew increasingly restless.

At that moment, Sydney finally reacted and looked up at Julien calmly. "President Flint, you said that the person you loved has always been me, but why didn't I feel it?

"What do you mean?" Julien was slightly

dazed.

Sydney smiled faintly. "You said you loved Maple Leaf, but I'm Maple Leaf, and I was married to you for six years. In those six years, you've never realized that I was Maple Leaf. Do you love me? If you do, shouldn't you have discovered that Lyra was fake long ago?"

"It’s not like that. It's not that I didn't want to notice. I..."

"Enough!" Sydney raised her hand to cut him off. "I don’t want to talk to you anymore, and I don’t believe that you love me either. If you loved me, you wouldn't be unable to recognize me. Besides, even if it's true that you love me, I don't think you love Sydney Raines. The person you love is just Maple Leaf."

Sydney looked at him. "Otherwise, why would you suddenly come to me saying you love me when you found out that I was Maple Leaf? When I'm just Sydney Raines, you’ve never shown any hint of love and were even completely indifferent to me. Julien Flint, you've completely taken Maple Leaf and me to be two completely different people."

Julien pursed his thin lips. "Yes, I admit that I took you and Maple Leaf as two people, but even when I didn't know that you were Maple Leaf, I still fell in love with you. I just didn't know it myself."

Sydney's pupils dilated.

He fell in love with her before he knew she was Maple Leaf?

Was that even possible?

Sydney quickly calmed down and laughed. "Sorry, President Flint. You can cheat little girls with those words, but you can't fool me. I'm afraid it's hard for me to believe that there are people in this world who don't even know who the person they love is."

Julien hung his eyes.

Despite him saying so much, she still did not believe that he loved her.

"Also, why are you telling me all this?

Since Lyra has been pretending to me for six years, why don't you just carry on like that? Don't tell me you want me to switch places with Lyra and then remarry me?" A mocking smile curled on Sydney's lips

Julien pursed his thin lips, silently agreeing.

Sydney snorted. "I was right. When I was Sydney, you didn't even look at me, but now that I'm Maple Leaf, you say that you love me and want to remarry me. What gives you that right? Am I someone you can throw away and get back as you please? Listen closely, Julien Flint. I’m not that cheap, so I'll never remarry you.

Besides, I stopped loving you a long time ago!"

If he had realized that Lyra was fake before she woke up from her coma and that Sydney was the real Maple Leaf, Sydney might be able to accept that he simply loved Maple Leaf. She would be willing to rekindle her feelings for him and did not mind that he became completely different from before.

After all, no matter how much he changed, he was still Julien Flint. It was just like no matter how hidden Maple Leaf was, she was still Sydney Raines. That was why she had confidence that she could turn his love for Maple Leaf into love for Sydney Raines. However, there were no ifs. Everything was too late. They could not go back!

Although Julien already heard Sydney say several times that she did not love him anymore, he felt his heart squeeze painfully every time he heard her say it. His heart felt incredibly suffocated,

making it feel very uncomfortable.

"Go back, President Flint. Since we've already come to this point, why should we get back together?" Sydney said while stepping back, "Maybe we just weren't meant to be!"

Julien’s thin lips moved as if wanting to say something, but his phone suddenly rang.

He frowned and took out his phone to look at the screen. It was a call from Brandon.

Julien lowered the phone and had no intention of answering it immediately. He said, "I know that what I said today was very shocking to you, but I won't give up!"

Then, he looked at her deeply for a few seconds before turning and walking toward the office door.
