Chapter 115 Push Her Down the Stairs
Chapter 115 Push Her Down the Stairs
"What?" Sydney was shocked.
She knew that Lyra would try to do something to her.
However, she did not expect Lyra to tell her to die.
"You want to kill me?" Sydney clenched her phone and deliberately raised her voice.
Julien's expression was extremely unpleasant when he heard this. As soon as he got out of the car, he quickly ran toward the inpatient block. His heart thundered in peril, unable to calm down.
Lyra wanted to kill Sydney!
The light in Lyra's eyes was terrifying. "Ms. Raines, how could you say something like that so casually? You died because you fell by yourself. It was an accident that had nothing to do with me."
With that, she approached Sydney.
She had never given up the idea of making Sydney disappear completely. However, she never had a chance after the resort.
Now that she realized that Sydney might be pregnant, she could not bear it any longer She had to get rid of Sydney and that b*stard before her pregnancy was exposed, or everything would be finished.
Lyra grabbed Sydney's shoulders, smiled grimly, and pushed her to the stairs.
Lyra was very strong, and Sydney was wearing high heels. She was forced back and soon reached the top of the stairs.
"Fall." Lyra pushed Sydney backward with a harsh shove.
Sydney fell.
Lyra stood at the top looking at the panic and fear on Sydney’s face, and waved at her with a smile." Goodbye."
She believed that Sydney would die if she fell from such a high staircase.
Even if she did not die, Lyra could finish the job later.
However, just as Sydney was about to roll down to the bottom of the stairs, a figure suddenly rushed up from the flight below and opened his arms to catch her.
The huge impact knocked the man to the ground and his back collided heavily against the wall. His handsome face distorted for a moment, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
Sydney was no better. Her arms and legs were numb with pain, and her stomach also started to hurt.
However, she was still alive!
At the top, Lyra was anticipating the scene of Sydney dying in front of her, but instead, she saw the scene of Sydney being saved instead.
What she could not believe was that the person who saved Sydney was Julien!
Lyra's face paled and her eyes filled with panic.
Why was Julien here?
Below, Julien forced himself to endure the severe pain in his back and helped Sydney up. His voice suppressed the pain as he asked, "Are you alright?"
Sydney already knew that it was him the moment she smelt the fragrance of his cologne when he caught her. Therefore, she was not surprised and simply held her stomach, shaking her head. Her voice was equally unsettled with hints of fear and trembled. "I'm fine."
"That's good." Julien faintly sighed with relief, his tone tinged with undisguised gratitude.
If he had come just a step later, Sydney would have been killed. At that thought, a great panic rose in his heart, overwhelming him.
Fortunately... Fortunately, he arrived just in time.
"What about you? Are you okay?" Sydney hurriedly looked at him and asked.
He saved her again.
Julien's eyes flickered. "I'm fine."
"Are you really fine?" Sydney was a little unconvinced.
She seemed to have heard his grunt of pain earlier.
However, she was in a state of extreme panic earlier
and did not hear it clearly.
"I'm fine," Julien tried his best to ignore the burning pain in his back and responded in a natural voice
On top, Lyra saw the two checking on each other and could not even care about being jealous anymore. She tried to leave quietly.
Just as she was about to reach the exit and leave the place, Julien's icy voice rang out behind her. "Stop!"
Lyra froze and subconsciously stopped.
"Turn around!" Julien continued.
Lyra slowly turned around but fearfully lowered her head, not daring to look at him. "Julien..."
"Lyra Madden, I'm disappointed in you!" Julien helped Sydney up from below and looked at Lyra like she was a stranger. "I know that you're not as kind as I thought you were, but I always thought that you were just a little evil. I never thought that you could do something like killing someone!"
Lyra's pupils shrank for a moment. She hastily raised her red eyes and said, "Julien, I... I didn't want to do it, but I couldn't control myself."
"You couldn't control yourself?" Sydney felt like she heard a joke. "If a person doing evil depends on whether they can control it or not, then it seems like Ms. Madden was born evil."
"I'm not..." Lyra bit her lip, tears flowing down in big globs.
She looked at Julien. "Julien, I'm not born evil. I'm just too insecure."
For some reason, Julien was not moved when he heard her words. Instead, he wanted to laugh in mockery.
"Last time, you said the same thing to me when you caused Sydney to fall." Julien looked back at Lyra with terribly dark eyes.
At that time, he even felt guilty about her.
He thought that it was because he did not stay with her properly that caused her to become insecure and do something like that. Now, it seemed like his guilt had become a joke instead.
Lyra's sobs stalled and a trace of embarrassment flashed imperceptibly through her eyes. However, it quickly disappeared again and she lowered her head, continuing to make excuses. "Julien, I'm really insecure."
"Last time, you said you were insecure because I walked close to Sydney, and I believed you. What about this time? I was far away from Sydney, so what were you afraid of?" Julien examined her.
"I... I..." Lyra bit her lips and stepped back, stammering and unable to say anything.
That was because she could not say what she was afraid of.
Sydney held her still painful stomach, her expression icy cold. "Forget it, President Flint. Since Ms. Madden can't say it, I'll just call the police. I have a recording of her intentional murder. It should be enough for her to be sentenced to a few years."
Recording?
Lyra's face changed and she looked at Sydney incredulously. "You recorded it?"
"Of course." Sydney waved her phone. "You couldn't even hide the malice in your eyes when you came to me. Did you think I'd follow you foolishly without any preparation?"
Despite that, she was still unprepared and was almost killed by Lyra.
"Julien..." Lyra was genuinely frightened and looked at Julien with a pale face, her eyes pleading for help. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Julien's thin lips pursed into a straight line and he said nothing.
She was his beloved, so he should save her.
However, he could not tell her that he would help her. Besides, he knew that what she did this time was a disaster. It would be irresponsible for him to continue protecting her.
When Julien did not speak, Lyra's heart gradually cooled, and she tearfully shook her head.
He did not want to save her.
He did not want to save her!
Sydney was also surprised by Julien's choice.
She always thought that he doted on Lyra without any limits.
Unexpectedly, she was mistaken.
Sydney looked at Julien with a complicated gaze and suddenly did not understand him.
"President Flint, since you have no objection, I'll call the police," Sydney said and took out her phone.
Lyra saw that she was serious and immediately panicked. Then, she thought of one of the most cliche yet useful methods, fainting.
Thud!
Lyra's eyes rolled to the back of her head and her body fell heavily to the ground.
Sydney and Julien were stunned by her sudden fainting.
"Lyra." Julien was the first to react. His expression tightened and he quickly squatted to check Lyra's condition, trying to wake her up.
However, after some emergency first aid, Lyra still did not wake up.
Julien realized that her situation might not be good and picked her up bridal style. He said to Sydney," Let's wait for Lyra to wake up before calling the police."
Sydney did not reply but narrowed her eyes and looked at the woman he was holding.
The woman's long and slender eyelashes fluttered. Although the arc was small, Sydney still caught sight of it and the corners of her mouth curled up.
