Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!
Chapter 214 Dispute in the Washroom

Hunter held his stomach and could not stop laughing.

Julien was a middle-aged, balding, and greasy man in his forties.

When he thought of Julien with that kind of image, he could not help but laugh.

Sydney looked at Hunter, who was laughing his head off, in confusion. "Why are you laughing so much? Am I wrong?"

"No no no." Hunter quickly waved his hand. "You're not wrong. You're completely right. He's in his forties, has a receding hairline, his stomach is quite big, and his eyes are small and beady. In short, he's as ugly as you can imagine."

Sydney could not help but shiver at his description and hurriedly stopped him. "Okay, that's enough. I can't stand it any longer."

Everyone loved beauty in their hearts. She admitted that she was also a common person who valued appearances.

In short, she could not accept that she slept with a man like that before. Even if it was a long time ago, she still felt sick to her stomach. "Okay, okay, I'll stop. I won't talk about it anymore."

Hunter rubbed his cheeks that went sore from laughing and nodded repeatedly.

Sydney pursed her red lips. "I can't figure out how you made friends with such a person. Your images are completely different."

"I told you, didn't I? I'm not good friends with him. We're just casual acquaintances," Hunter shrugged and replied.

At that moment, Luke came back after answering the phone.

Sydney looked at him. "What did Cay say?"

"He said he's already back and will be attending the auction tonight, so he'll see us at the banquet after the auction," Luke put his phone in his pocket and answered.

Sydney nodded. "That's good, but didn't he agree to call us before he came back so we could pick him up at the airport? Why didn't he call?"

"His plane was delayed and he only touched down half an hour ago. We'd be late if we went to pick him up, so he'll come straight here. Come on, Darling, let's go in first," Luke said. Sydney hummed.

The three of them walked toward the hotel entrance and entered the auction site smoothly.

Sydney and Luke's positions were in the back rows, and Hunter's seat was in the front rows. Thus, they separated after entering the auction site.

Sydney found her own seat according to the invitation. As soon as she sat down, she felt eyes staring at her.

Her body stiffened for a moment and she looked around, trying to replace out who was staring at her.

However, even after looking around, the gaze disappeared before she could replace out where it was from. She had no choice but to give up.

In a room on the second floor of the auction site, after Zach pushed the door in, Julien left the windowsill and returned to the sofa with his crutch and sat down.

"Something wrong?" Julien picked up a booklet of auction items and read it.

Zach stood behind him and replied, "President Flint, the Madden family is here. They want to come to the room to say hello to you."

"No need. We'll meet at the banquet after the auction," Julien flipped the page and said indifferently.

Zach nodded. "Understood. I'll convey your words to them."

'Heh, don't think I don't know that the Madden family just wants to come and sit in the room. They don't want to sit in the hall with the others.

'After all, the private rooms represented one's status. Although the Madden family's influence isn't small, they're nowhere near prestigious enough to sit in a private room for the auction. That's why they want to sit in President Flint's room.'

After Zach went out, Julien went to the windowsill again.

He closed the auction catalog and was just about to put it back on the shelf.

However, he did not place it firmly, and the booklet fell to the ground. It flipped open to a page because of the impact.

Julien frowned and bent down to pick it up.

As soon as he did, his eyes suddenly widened. "This is..."

Julien looked at the familiar ring on the page. It was Sydney and his wedding ring!

The bride's version was a little different than the groom's version, but the difference was not too big. Furthermore, it was a one-of-a-kind ring, so he recognized it at a glance.

Julian hurriedly looked at the information of the donor below. Sure enough, he saw the name Sydney Raines. His expression instantly turned gloomy.

She donated the wedding ring and participated in the auction!

For a moment, a wave of anger rose in Julien's heart.

He did not even throw away his wedding ring. It was still in the drawer of his room.

However, she took hers out for sale.

Julien instantly felt as if he was betrayed. He stood up, walked toward the window, and looked down at Sydney below with gloomy and dark eyes.

Sydney once again felt a gaze on her. This time, she also clearly perceived that the owner of that gaze had a problem with her. It did not seem like the person was very happy.

"What's wrong, Darling?" Luke hurriedly asked from a few seats away when he saw the restless Sydney.

Sydney wanted to tell him that someone was staring at her again, but then she thought that it was useless to tell him anyway. Since they might not be able to replace that person, she simply shook her head and said,' I'm fine. I'm going to the ladies."

She finished reading the auction catalog. She was not interested in any of the auction items, so she naturally did not care that she would miss something good if she left her seat.

"Okay. Come back quickly." Luke told her.

Sydney nodded and got up to leave her seat.

In the washroom, Sydney came out of the cubicle after finishing her business and went to the sink to wash her hands.

At that moment, she heard a flushing sound.

Immediately after that, she saw through the mirror the door of a cubicle behind her opening up.

Lyra came out from inside and just so happened to meet Sydney's eyes in the mirror.

She did not expect to see Sydney here. After she got over her surprise, she smiled and nodded. "Ms. Raines, what a coincidence."

"Indeed," Sydney nodded slightly and replied.

Lyra was very dissatisfied with her attitude. Her eyes grew cold as she also walked to the basin to wash her hands.

Sydney finished washing her hands and took a hand towel from the box to the side to wipe her hands.

Lyra saw that the hand wash on her side was empty and felt anger burn in her heart. Then, she looked at Sydney. "Ms. Raines, could you hand me the hand wash on your side?" "No." Sydney wiped her fingers and refused without hesitation.

They were enemies. Why should she hand Lyra anything?

Lyra did not expect Sydney to refuse so bluntly and not even bother to put on pretenses. She bit her lip in anger.

Then, she thought of something and the corners of her mouth curled up coldly. She took a step to the side, knocking Sydney to the side, and occupied the washstand that Sydney had just been using. Sydney did not expect Lyra to do that and stumbled slightly. However, she managed to hold the edge of the washstand in time, so she avoided the tragedy of falling.

"Sorry, Ms. Raines. I didn't do it on purpose. You won't take it personally, right?" Lyra rubbed her hands and said sarcastically, but her eyes were filled with a malicious smile.

Sydney looked at her with icy eyes, causing her to feel uncomfortable with her stare. When her expression stiffened, Sydney suddenly lifted the bag in her hand and smashed it against Lyra's head. Lyra was caught off guard and was smashed by the bag, causing her hair to mess up. The makeup on her face smudged, and more importantly, there was a throbbing pain in her head. "Sydney Raines, how dare you hit me?!" Lyra trembled as she gnashed her teeth and glared at Sydney.

Sydney drew another hand towel and slowly wiped the cosmetic residue on her bag. She said in a clear and cold voice, "Sorry, Ms. Madden. I didn't do it on purpose. You won't take it personally, right?" The familiar words caused Lyra's face to burst in red and white, making her look extremely ridiculous.

Those were the words that she just said to Sydney, but Sydney returned those exact same words to her.

It was clearly a slap in her face!
