Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!
Chapter 71 Causing Trouble At Her Door

The person outside the door seemed to have a grudge against her. The person pounded on the door so hard that Sydney could hear the door frame trembling from the bedroom. It was as if the person would break down the door into the house the next moment.

Sydney lifted the quilt with a dark face, casually straightened her hair, put on her shoes, and walked out of the bedroom. She was ready to go to the porch to see who was so bold. However, before she went, she dropped by the kitchen first and took a sharp knife before heading to the porch.

Just as she reached the foyer, she heard the sound of talking coming from outside the door.

"Mom, what are you doing? Stop it!" Jayden grabbed Velma's arm that was pounding the door and stopped it. He could feel a headache coming.

Velma looked at him angrily. "Why are you stopping me? Let go! I'm going to teach this little wench a lesson today."

"This is sis... I mean, this is Sydney's and Lyra's matter. Why are you interfering?" A frown appeared on Jayden's young and childish face.

Velma snorted. "Why can't I interfere? Lyra is my future daughter-in-law. If my daughter-in-law is bullied, as a mother-in-law, I have to back her up."

Then, she flung Jayden's hand away and continued to pound on the door, screaming as she did. "Sydney Raines, how dare a little wench like you bully Lyra? Don't have the guts to come out and see me, huh? Open the door. I know you're in there. Open-"

The door in front of Velma opened before she could finish her sentence.

Velma's hand suddenly swung in the air, and her whole body lost its center of gravity and pitched forward.

Sydney watched as the large woman fell towards her. With a flash of disgust in her eyes, she immediately let go of the door handle and took a few steps back.

Bam!

Velma's slightly obese body fell to the ground, face down just in front of Sydney. Velma cried out in pain.

Outside the door, Jayden was stunned at the scene.

Only Sydney looked down at Velma on the floor and curled her lips into a grin. "Oh, I can't believe you would give me such a greeting as soon as I open the door. You really flatter me, Mrs. Flint. Come, come. Get up!"

As she spoke, she held out her hand as if to help Velma up.

"Back off! Who needs your help?" Velma's eyes were red with anger, and she swatted Sydney's hand away with a horrible attitude.

She did not expect to be humiliated in front of that little wench.

Sydney was not angry either. Instead, she straightened up her body and smiled. "In that case, you can get up by yourself."

Velma snorted and braced her hands on the ground to get up.

However, due to her obesity, she could not stand up for a while. Sydney snickered.

Velma gnashed her teeth and looked at Sydney. "What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing." Sydney waved her hand. "I just remembered a toad I saw on TV last night. It fell from a height and flipped over, but it couldn't turn over because it was too fat. I laughed because it was quite funny." "H-How dare you call me a toad?" Velma pointed at her, trembling.

Sydney shrugged and said innocently, "What? I was talking about a toad, not you, Mrs. Flint. Why did you think that I was calling you a toad? Do you think you're a toad, Mrs. Flint?" She grinned at Velma.

Velma was so angry that she could not replace the words to speak.

If she said anything, it would be the same as admitting that she was a toad.

Velma then ignored Sydney and turned her head to see her son still outside in a daze instead of defending his own mother. Velma went into a fit of fury again." Hurry up and help me up!" "O-Oh!" Jayden finally came back to his senses and crossed the foyer, where he struggled to help his mother up.

"You're pretty strong, youngster." Sydney praised him.

Jayden felt a little proud, and his chin lifted subconsciously. "Heh, that goes without saying. I'm a man!"

He had to be strong.

Sydney sized him up and shook her head. "I couldn't tell!"

"Y-You're shameless!" Jayden's handsome face instantly turned red, and he pointed at her, embarrassed and angry.

Velma was even more furious, and she raised her hand to slap Sydney's face. "You little wench. You can seduce other men, but how dare you seduce my son? I'll teach you a lesson!"

"Hey, watch out!" Jayden did not expect things to turn out like that. His heart clenched, and he told Sydney to dodge without caring about having been embarrassed.

Sydney looked at him with surprise. The worry on his face was even more shocking to her.

However, she soon smiled.

It seemed like she did not help the kid out for nothing the last time. At least he knew to warn her. He was not that ungrateful after all.

Sydney did not dodge like Jayden told her to and, instead, raised her left hand. The kitchen knife slid out of her sleeve, and she brought it to the left side of her face with the blade pointing outwards. The blade naturally hung in the air, and the tip of the knife flashed with a cold glint.

Shocked to see that, Velma stopped her hand an inch from the blade, just in time to stop her hand from being cut off by the knife.

"Y-You're carrying a knife!" Jayden's mouth opened in disbelief.

Velma looked at the knife in fear.

Sydney put the knife down. Her fingertips brushed the blade as she said with a smile, "You guys broke my door down. I thought it was a robbery, so isn't it normal to have a knife for self-defense?" Jayden sputtered twice and fell silent.

Sydney turned away from him and looked at Velma, whose face was still painted with fear. "I overheard you say that you're here today because I bullied Lyra?"

Upon hearing those words, Velma immediately put away her fear and said fiercely, "Exactly. You told one of your men to kidnap Lyra and put her in the hospital. You-"

"Do you have proof?" Sydney interrupted her with an indifferent expression.

Sure enough, she had guessed correctly last night.

They really did suspect that she had someone kidnap Lyra.

"Lyra told me that herself. Do I still need evidence?" Velma sneered and crossed her arms.

Sydney looked at her calmly. "Of course. It's slander if there's no evidence, and I can call the cops."

"Go ahead." Velma rolled her eyes in disdain.

Sydney looked at her for two seconds before taking out her hand from her pocket.

"Are you really calling the cops?" The expression on Velma's face changed.

She thought that Sydney was just using the police to threaten her and did not expect her to call them for real.

Sydney looked at Velma like she was an idiot. "Did you think I was joking?"

In the meantime, the call connected, and Sydney brought the phone to her ear. "Hello, is this the police?

I want to make a report. There's a-"

Before she could finish, Velma hurriedly grabbed her phone and smashed it on the ground.

The phone shattered with a snap.

Velma smiled smugly. "I'd like to see how you call the cops now."

Sydney looked at the mobile phone on the ground with dark eyes. After a long time, she said coldly, "Do you think I can't do anything to you now that you've smashed my phone? Why don't you take a look at where you are now?"

This was Shallow Bay, a famous high-end residence in Port City. The security measures here were first-class, and there were alarms everywhere. There also happened to be one on her shoe cabinet.

Sydney raised her hand and pressed the alarm, which instantly rang throughout the corridor.

"What's going on?" Startled, Velma glared at Sydney."

What did you do?"
