My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 131 The Horse Went Crazy

Luke and the others came back from the race, and they were all drenched with sweat. However, their faces were filled with excitement and it was obvious that they enjoyed the game.

"President Chase, here’s some water.” Sharon picked up two bottles of water and threw one of them to Luke.

Luke took it. "Thanks."

"Where's mine?" Hunter was upset when he saw that she only gave the water to Luke and not himself. "I brought you here. Why are you giving him water and not me?"

Sharon rolled her eyes. "Take it!"

She threw the other bottle over to him.

Hunter smiled in satisfaction. He opened the bottle and took a big gulp, then poured the remaining water onto his head. "Feels great!"

"Yup." Luke shook the water from his head and agreed.

On the other side, Lyra gave a bottle of water to Julien. "Julien, drink some water."

"Sure." Julien took the bottle and twisted it open, but he did not drink and passed it back to her. "You drink some.”

Lyra smiled at how considerate Julien was. "Thank

you, Julien."

Julien nodded, bent down, and took another bottle of water to drink.

Just then, a panicked cry came from afar. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction of the voice.

Luke saw that Sydney's horse was ramming around violently as though it had gone crazy.

Sydney was horrified, her face pale from fear. Her body tilted back and forth repeatedly with the horse's violent movements. Even though she held the reins tightly, if this carried on, she might be thrown off the horse sooner or later.

"Darling!” Luke quickly threw the bottle in his hands and ran toward his horse intending to save Sydney.

Just when he got up his horse, another figure ran past him.

It was Julien.

Luke frowned, kicked his horse’s abdomen, and chased after Julien.

Only Lyra and Hunter were left in the rest area.

Sharon just went to the washroom, and Jayden was still at the other side of the park.

Hunter saw Lyra's twisted expression and laughed. " My gosh, Julien went to save Sydney. Are you feeling very upset?"

Lyra knew that he was mocking her. She tightened her grip on the water bottle, yet her face remained calm. "Of course, not. Since something happened to Ms. Raines, it’s only natural for Julien to save her. I'm not upset."

"Really? Your actions are telling me otherwise." Hunter looked at the twisted bottle in her hands, while her smile became more forced.

Lyra’s expression stiffened and her grip on the bottle loosened immediately. She was speechless.

Hunter laughed. "Ms. Madden, your hypocrisy never ceased to amaze me. When Julien fell in love with you, I thought he must be blind. Now, his blindness seemed to be getting better.”

He held his chin as he looked at how Julien saved Sydney. "When something happened to Sydney, the fear on his face was real. He has Sydney in his heart, just that he hasn't realized it yet. When he realizes it someday, what do you think will happen, Ms.

Madden?"

"Enough. Stop talking." Lyra stood up and tightened her fist, urging Hunter to stop talking.

Hunter raised his eyebrow. "Are you mad?"

Lyra looked at him with gloominess in her eyes. "Mr. Cohen, I know that my father offended your family in the incident previously, but you don't have to ruin my relationship with Julien. Are you not afraid that Julien might get upset with you?"

"Afraid? Why would I be?" Hunter smiled as he replied, "Julien is my friend. I think that you and Julien aren't suitable for each other, so it's better for him to break up with you. I did this for his own good, so why would I be afraid?"

"You..." Lyra's face twisted horribly.

Hunter felt rather relieved.

He initially did not have any intentions to break Julien and Lyra up. After all, this was none of his business.

However, the Maddens were horrible people. They almost made the Cohen family lose years of hard work. He naturally could not stand Lyra and swore to make her unhappy. He was just a petty person after all.

On the other side of the park.

Julien held Sydney in his arms.

Sydney was trembling in fear, and she was still shaken about what just happened.

Julien felt her fear and patted her back gently. He comforted her tenderly, "You’re fine now, don’t be scared."

Sydney did not respond, but she trembled less upon hearing his reassurance.

At that moment, Luke came over and saw both of them huddled together. His eyes darkened. "President Flint, thanks for saving her."

He wanted to refuse his help.

However, Julien saving her was a fact, and Julien was indeed faster than he was.

"You’re welcome," Julien glanced at Luke and replied with a soft tone.

Luke got off his horse. "Since I'm here now, would you please let go of my darling? Don't forget that she’s now my girlfriend. Your fiancee is also looking at you."

When he heard that, Julien's hand which was patting Sydney froze. He suddenly came to realize that the woman in his arms was his ex-wife and someone else's girlfriend.

He really should not be holding her like this.

Julien turned his head toward the rest area and coincidently looked into Lyra’s teary eyes.

Julien pursed his lips and let go of Sydney.

The moment Julien let go, Luke pulled Sydney into his arms and asked anxiously, "Darling, are you okay?"

Sydney was visibly still shaken, but she shook her head and said in a trembling voice, "I’m fine."

Just when she was about to fall from the horse, Julien appeared and saved her, so she was not injured.

However, Luke was still worried. He carefully studied Sydney up and down to look for injuries. When he found none, he let out a breath of relief. "What a relief!

I was so scared that I thought I might die. Why did

this horse go crazy so suddenly? It was fine just now."

When he said that, Julien looked toward Sydney’s hose, which had already calmed down. His eyes were dark as an abyss.

"I don't know," Sydney shook her head as she replied.

She just wanted to enjoy a horseback ride, and she did not expect the horse to go crazy.

Her mind went blank instantly, so she did not even consider why it happened.

"It’s fine. I'll get to the bottom of this. Darling, let's go back and take a rest. Your legs are still trembling," Luke said.

Sydney nodded and agreed.

Luke carried her and headed toward the villa.

Julien looked at their silhouette with an expressionless face.

After half an hour, Luke came downstairs.

The rest of them came back from the park and were all in the living room.

When Jayden saw Luke coming down, he stood up immediately. "I heard something happened to Sydney. How is she?”

When Lyra saw how concerned Jayden was, she lowered her eyes to cover the hatred within.

Just not long ago, Jayden hated Sydney.

Why did he decide to not hate her right after Julien divorced her? Jayden even seemed so concerned about her. Just what did Sydney do to make him like her so much?

"President Chase, is Sydney okay?" Sharon asked.

When the incident occurred, Sharon was in the washroom. She only heard about what happened when she came back.

Luke ignored Jayden completely. He looked at Sharon and said, "Don’t worry, she's fine. She just got a great shock and is now sound asleep."

"That's great to hear," Sharon said in relief.

Although Jayden was unhappy that he got ignored, he was equally relieved when he heard that Sydney was okay so he decided to let Luke be.
