Chapter 224 Julien Got Into a Car Accident
Brandon was choked by Julien’s words. Even he himself felt that what he said did not make sense.
However, he was older than Julien. Even if Julien disagreed with him, he should not have pointed it out so bluntly.
Did Julien still want to be together with Lyra?
As he thought of that, Brandon sneered. “Julien, Lyra made so many mistakes previously, especially toward Sydney Raines. Didn't you protect her back then and clean up the mess she made? What are you saying now? Isn't it too late? You already caused enough harm!”
Julien's pupils constricted. His hand tightened around his phone and he said nothing.
Brandon was right. Previously, even though it was Lyra's alternate personality who did those things to Sydney, he did help her cover it up.
It was because of him that Lyra's alternate personality became even more vicious than before, and Sydney was now in constant danger.
Not only did he cause harm to Lyra, but he also indirectly did it to Sydney.
"Brandon, you're right. I really need to stop being so soft-hearted toward Lyra. Otherwise...”
Before Julien could finish his sentence, a shrill car horn suddenly came from his opposite direction.
The headlights of the opposite car blinded him.
Julien was unable to see what was in front of him, and his eyebrows were in a tight-knit, a worried expression on his face.
However, he quickly calmed himself down. He threw his phone to the side and rolled down his window. He wanted to use his side mirrors to look at his surroundings so he could find an opportunity to stop the car.
However, before he could go another way, the car opposite him with its headlights on crashed straight into him.
Immediately after a loud crash, Julien's car was thrown off by the impact.
Julien's upper body smashed against the steering wheel, and blood immediately started flowing from his head. His face was colored with blood, and he soon lost consciousness.
On the other side, Brandon threw his phone in anger." Julien hung up on me. Is this how much respect he has for me?"
"Why are you so worked up about this?" Mrs. Madden gave him a cup of tea. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Brandon finished it all in one gulp. He heavily placed it on the desk and said, "I'm his future father- in-law, and he didn't even bother to tell me before he hung up. How can I not be angry? Have you ever seen any son-in -law treat his father-in-law this way? He barely even smiled, let alone try to please me."
Mrs. Madden smoothed his chest. "Julien had always been indifferent. You know that since the beginning."
"Even if he's indifferent, he shouldn't have hung up on me.” Brandon took her hand off his chest and sat down. "He dared to treat me this way. Does he even love Lyra?"
On the second floor, when Lyra heard this, she tightened her hand on the railings. Her expression was hidden in the dark.
"What are you saying? How can Julien not love Lyra? Julien said himself that he fell in love with Lyra a long time ago. If it wasn’t for the Raines who interfered six years ago, Lyra and Julien would've gotten married by now. Oh, by the way, did Julien say that he'll be coming?"
"No. I don’t think he'll come." Brandon rubbed his eyebrows.
Lyra gritted her teeth.
The thing she was most worried about happened after all.
Even when Julien heard that she cried, he still did not bother to come.
He must have felt that she was not important
anymore.
With the way things were going, he would have broken up with Lyra even before he realized that the one he loved was Sydney.
No, Lyra could never let this happen. She had to find a way to gain his heart again.
Lyra clenched her fist and went back to her room.
On the other side, Sydney, Layden, and Luke went for a warm meal before heading home. Just as they were about to reach, an ambulance rushed past them.
The ambulance headed toward a bunch of police cars parked about 100 meters away. A few policemen were making a barrier, and there were a lot of onlookers.
"What happened?" Sydney rolled down her window and looked toward the crowd.
Layden, who was next to her, replied, "I think there's a car accident."
After saying that, he retracted his gaze and handed Sydney her purse. "Sydney, it’s late. Go back and take a good rest."
"That’s right, Darling. Go back." Luke added.
Sydney nodded and said, "I'll head up, then."
She waved at them and turned around toward her apartment.
Luke and Cayden made sure that she went in before they left.
The next day, Luke's call woke Sydney up.
She did not even open her eyes when she stretched out from her blanket to reach for her phone at the bedside table. She used her muscle memory to answer the phone. With her sleep-laden voice, she said, "Yes?"
"Darling, good news!" Luke said loudly.
Sydney was stunned by the loud voice and was suddenly awake. She opened her eyes and sat upright. She rubbed her bedhead and said in annoyance, " What happened? Why are you so loud?"
"Julien got into a car accident," Luke said.
Sydney's eyes widened. "What? Car accident?"
"Yes. The one we saw yesterday." Luke nodded.
Sydney rubbed her nose. "Wait, I'm confused. You're saying that the car accident we saw yesterday was the one Julien got into?"
"Yes."
"Why did he get into a car accident here?" Sydney could not understand.
Did he come to look for her again last night?
"I'm not sure. The news that he got into an accident was spread all over the town. A lot of reporters are now outside the hospital to find out what happened to him. The most important thing is that the Flint Corporation stock market was affected because of this. What a great occasion!"
Luke was wearing a colorful floral shirt as he said in excitement.
Sydney rubbed her temples. She was just about to say something when her doorbell rang.
She said, "Luke, give me a second. Someone is at my door."
"Who is it?" Luke asked in alarm.
Who could it be at this early hour? Hunter, or Cayden?
"I don't know. I'll go take a look.”
Sydney put down her phone and got off the bed. After putting on her shoes, she went to the door.
Once she opened the door, a hard slap landed on her cheek.
Sydney was stunned. She held her face and looked at Velma Wilkins, who had a twisted expression on her face.
Velma seemed to find one slap inadequate and raised her hand for another one.
Sydney reacted quickly and grabbed Velma's hand. Sydney then quickly returned the slap.
With a hard slap, Velma fell to the ground. It was clear how much strength Sydney used.
Velma was shocked. She could not believe that she had been beaten and only came back to her senses after a while. She crawled to her feet and shouted," Sydney, you whore! How dare you hit me?”
She then got closer to Sydney with her hands stretched out, preparing to give Sydney a lesson.
Sydney was prepared for her the moment she saw Velma. When Velma came closer, Sydney picked up the feather duster on her shoe cabinet and crazily swung it on Velma.
