My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 118 Die on the Operating Table

Suddenly, there was the sound of soft sobbing.

Julien stopped thinking about it and opened the door of the consultation room.

Lyra seemed to have suffered a shock. She first froze and then immediately turned around and went inside.

"Lyra," Julien called out to her.

Lyra stopped and raised her hand to wipe her tears before she turned around again with a forced smile on her face. "Julien, you're done talking to Finn?"

Julien hummed and stared at her for two seconds before asking, "Did you hear everything?"

Lyra nodded, and her eyes which had stopped tearing up once again overflowed with moisture. "Julien, do I... do I really have a dissociative personality disorder?"

Julien's thin lips moved. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing and only hummed in agreement.

Lyra covered her face and sobbed. "I'm sorry, Julien. I didn't know. I really didn't know..."

"It's okay." Julien held her in his arms, feeling heartbroken. "It's not your fault. You don't need to apologize." "But I heard Finn say that that other personality of mine is bad and hostile to Ms. Raines. Did I do something to Ms. Raines in that memory that I lost?" Lyra pulled on Julien's lapel and asked with red eyes.

Julien lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "That personality pushed Sydney down the stairs..."

"Hiss..." Lyra drew a breath of cold air. "How could that be? I... I tried to kill Ms. Raines?"

"It wasn't you. It was the other personality." Julien stroked her hair and corrected her.

Lyra bit her lip, her voice choking. "Even if it was the other personality, she's still me. It's no wonder I kept targeting Ms. Raines several times. I knew that it was wrong to do that, but I couldn't control it. It's all because I'm mentally ill!"

She slapped her head spitefully.

"Lyra, stop that." Julien hurriedly pulled her hand down. "I told you, it's not your fault."

"It's my fault. Not only did I frame Ms. Raines for hitting me with her car, but I also caused her to fall, and now I pushed Ms. Raines down the stairs. I... I..." Lyra sobbed uncontrollably.

Julien kissed her forehead. "The previous two times were because you were influenced by the soon-to-be-born alternate personality. That's why you did it. And the one who pushed Sydney down the stairs was completely done by the alternate personality. It has nothing to do with you. That's why you have no memory of it. You don't have to blame yourself."

"But Ms. Raines doesn't know." Lyra sniffled. Then, she thought of something and pushed the man away, asking, "By the way, how’s Ms. Raines? Is she okay?"

"She's fine," Julien replied.

Lyra patted her chest and sighed in relief. "Great.

Thank goodness she's alright. However, Ms. Raines won't let me off."

Julien pursed his lips. "She'll call the police."

"The police?" Lyra first exclaimed, and then smiled bitterly and said, "Of course, she will. I pushed Ms.

Raines down the stairs, so it's only natural that she'll call the police. I should go to jail for my actions. I heard that jail is very scary and those female prisoners are very good at torturing people. I wonder if it's true."

She looked at him seemingly unintentionally.

Julien did not notice it. Finn's words emerged in his mind again.

For Lyra's alternate personality to fuse with the core personality, she could not go to prison.

If she went to jail, with her character, she would be stimulated again. At that time, her condition might worsen, let alone curing the split personality.

Julien's eyes narrowed slightly at that thought. "Don't worry, I won't let you go to jail." "Really?" Lyra's eyes glowed as she looked at him, but quickly dimmed again. "But Ms. Raines won't agree." "I'll talk to her," Julien said with lowered eyes.

At that moment, his phone rang. It was from Zach. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

"What is it?" Julien brought the phone to his ear and asked in a low voice.

Zach's respectful voice answered, "President Flint, two research teams came from abroad and want to license our new energy development technology."

"Alright. You receive them first. I'll come over immediately," Julien said with a hum.

After the call ended, he put down the phone. "Lyra, I have to go back to the company first. You rest well and don't think too much. I'll handle the rest."

Lyra nodded. "Okay."

Julien put the phone in his suit pocket and turned to leave.

Not long after he left, Finn came back. "Are you sure this was a good idea? If someone finds out that you faked having DID, your reputation will be ruined."

"So what?" Lyra shrugged, unconcerned. "My reputation was already damaged back at the banquet when I falsely accused Sydney of hitting me with her car. I'm not afraid of my reputation becoming worse. Besides, are you so sure that I'll be exposed?"

Finn pushed up his glasses. "Nothing is absolute. I just want you to be more careful."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, this was my only choice, otherwise, Julien wouldn't help me and I would've gone to jail. Most importantly, I already laid hands on Sydney several times. Julien won't say it, but his heart must've a bad feeling about me."

Lyra picked up the cup and sipped the water elegantly. "That was clear from his reluctance to save me. If I fake having a split personality, he'll attribute all the things I did to Sydney to the alternate personality that doesn't even exist. In that case, he won't have any ill feelings against me, the core personality, and will only feel sorry for me."

In addition, Julien would not think that she was evil even if she went against Sydney in the future.

He would only feel that it was an aggravation of her condition.

Finn looked at the confident Lyra and shrugged helplessly. "Well, if that's your decision, I respect you."

"I know you're the best to me." Lyra smiled sweetly at him.

Finn's eyes grew hazy for a moment before softening." You're my savior and my angel. Who would I be good to if not you?"

Lyra's smile froze for an instant. Then, she lowered her eyes to conceal the guilt and changed the subject seamlessly. "By the way, I still have a favor to ask of you."

"What favor?" Finn did not notice anything abnormal about her and asked.

Lyra pursed her lips. "Sydney has a recording of me pushing her down the stairs. Although Julien promised that he won't let me go to jail, that recording in Sydney's hands is a ticking time bomb. I want you to find a way to destroy the recording."

"That's easy," Finn stuck his hand in the pocket of his white coat and replied with a relaxed expression.

Lyra continued, "Also, Sydney is pregnant."

"Whose is it?" Finn raised his brows.

Lyra's face twisted for a moment, and she replied with gritted teeth, "Julien's, but Sydney doesn't know. However, if Julien finds out that she's pregnant, he'll immediately guess that it's his child."

That night, she drugged Sydney with the intention of her messing around with other men. Then, Lyra would take the opportunity to take photos and videos to completely ruin Sydney. Unexpectedly, she did not return to the room but went to another room with Julien to spend the night, so Lyra's plan completely failed.

There was no other way than to change the plan. After Julien left, she told the man she arranged for earlier to sneak into the room and sleep next to Sydney, hiding the fact that it was Julien who spent the night with Sydney. However, she did not expect Sydney to actually get pregnant after that one time!
