Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!
Chapter 382 I’ll Be Here Watching You

"That's a relief." Reassured, Hunter patted his chest and asked again, "Who is the hitter?"

"I've no idea. It's under investigation, and I think we'll hear the results tomorrow," Sydney replied.

Hunter sighed regretfully and said, "So it is.

I was considering assisting you."

"It's okay. You can take Davey back.

Staying in the hospital with me, he hasn't eaten or rested properly for days. It's detrimental to children. Take him back for a rest," Sydney said.

Hunter could tell her implication for him to go. With frustration, he nodded and said," Well then, I'll come again tomorrow. Davey, say goodbye... to Sydney." "Bye, Sydney!" Davey waved at her.

Unable to see, Sydney waved back nevertheless.

Hunter picked up Davey and went off.

Sydney was left alone in the ward. The sudden quietness was eerie, and her blind state amplified her fear.

She couldn't tell who would be the next one to come in or whether it was a good or bad person.

If Brandon broke in now, she would be found defenseless.

"Is there anyone there?" Sydney shouted, trying to bring herself to notice.

Just now when Hunter arrived, the caregiver left. No one knew where she went. She still hadn't come back.

With the caregiver keeping her company, she would be less upset. At the very least, she would know who came to visit her.

"Candice, Candice?" Sydney grabbed the blanket and called out.

Just then, a deep, familiar voice rang out." What's wrong?"

Julien!

Sydney's eyes were wide open. Her fear was cast out at once.

She shook her head in relief. "I'm okay. I was just a little scared to be alone and blind. I tried to call Candice back, but she was not there. Fortunately, you came."

At that moment, she admitted her dependence on him.

After all, he was an acquaintance, and she no longer had to face the vast darkness alone.

Sydney was surprised at first, and then joy rose from the bottom of his heart. Even the reopened wound on his back felt less painful.

He strode over and stopped in front of the bed. "Fear not, I'll be here with you."

Sydney opened her mouth, trying to tell him that he was free to go when Candice came back.

However, that would make her ungrateful, so she swallowed back the words at the tip of her tongue.

Julien pulled over a chair and sat down." How was it? Did she tell you anything?"

Sydney knew that he was referring to Jane. Her eyes slightly narrowed, and she replied, "Yeah, it's shocking. Jane is just a scapegoat. The real attacker is still out there." "What?" Julien's face fell, "A scapegoat?"

"Yes, Jane's son has leukemia, and she needed a big sum of money. The real criminal would treat her son as long as Jane promised to take the rap for her and not sell her out." Sydney sighed and shook her head.

Julien's thin lips pursed into a cold line. "Who is the real attacker?"

"I've no clue. Jane doesn't know either. She can only describe the person's looks. Luke will send over an artist tomorrow, and the latter will create an image," Sydney replied.

Julien's eyes dimmed. Just as he was about to say something, the phone rang.

It was Sydney's phone.

He turned to look at the head of the bed and saw Luke's name flashing on the screen. His face clouded over in an instant.

Even so, he handed the phone to Sydney and said, "It's Luke."

Sydney thanked him and put the phone to her ear. "Luke."

"Darling, the detective agency just contacted me. They have dug out relevant information. Jane was not lying. Her son indeed has leukemia, but the boy knows nothing about his biological mother. They haven't recognized each other yet." Luke's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Sydney raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Why?" "Because her son was diagnosed with a disease when he was born, and she abandoned him. Ten years later, her family and she were caught in a bus accident when they were on a trip. She was the only survivor, but her fertility was damaged. Then she found her son by chance, but her guilt prevents her from recognizing the boy.

"I see it now." Sydney looked at Julien," When you used her family to pressure her, she was scared but still refused to tell the truth. Turns out she believed that we couldn't replace out the existence of her son." "Darling, who are you talking to?" At the other end of the phone, Luke was puzzled by her words and asked.

Sydney didn't keep it from him. "Julien."

"What? Julien?" Luke jumped up at once," He went to see you again!"

Sydney found it both funny and annoying." He is in the adjacent ward, remember? Alright, anything else they found? For example, can her son afford the surgery?"

"No," Luke shook his head, "the detective went to ask the hospital where her son was. They hadn't received any money."

Sydney lifted her chin and said, "Does it mean that person didn't give her the money as agreed?"

"Exactly! I'm just not sure if the money will be given to Jane after she is convicted or won't be given to her at all." Luke shrugged.

Sydney pinched her brows. "Anyway, let's just leave it as it is. Alright, gotta go."

She put down the phone.

Julien reached out his hand. "Give it to me. I'll help you hang up the phone." "Thanks." Sydney complied. Julien took the phone, looked at the screen with a smirk, and hung up. He put the phone back at the head of the bed and looked at Sydney. "What are you going to do with Jane?"

Since she was not the real attacker, subjecting her to a test would be too harsh.

Sydney put her hand on her forehead. "To be honest, I don't know. I'll call Finn and tell him to put it on hold. As for the rest, we'll talk about it after the real criminal is caught." "That will do." Julien nodded.

Sydney yawned.

At the sight of her tired look, Julien softened his voice. "Sleepy?"

Sydney hummed. "A little." "Have a rest. I'll be here watching you," Julien said.

Sydney wanted to decline.

Julien added, "Aren't you afraid of being alone? Or else, you wouldn't have called out to the caregiver."

"I..." As her fear was seen through, Sydney opened her mouth but lost her tongue.

Julien's eyes turned gentle. "Alright, just sleep. I'll go when the caregiver comes back."

Sydney didn't have another excuse to reject it.

The wound on her head hadn't healed, and she went out in the morning. At that point, she was feeling dizzy and sleepy.

Deep down, she knew that she couldn't fight it.

"Okay, I'll have to trouble you." Sydney gave an awkward smile.

Julien helped her lie down and said, "No problem, sleep tight."

He tucked her in.

Sydney hummed and closed her eyes.

Soon, her breathing became even.

Aware that she had fallen asleep, Julien looked at her serene face. His eyes darkened.

The next second saw him suddenly bending down and dropping a kiss on Sydney's forehead.
