My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 229 Kill Her Immediately

"It's true. I have two bodyguards, and they are both retired soldiers. They killed someone before, and Sharon Campbell’s aura was the same as theirs. Moreover, when I shook her hand just now, I felt a thick callus between her thumb and index finger.

That's a typical sign of someone who frequently uses a gun," Cayden said solemnly.

Sydney sucked in a breath. "My gosh, I didn't expect Sharon to have a background like that."

"So Sydney, you better stay away from her." Cayden reminded once more.

Sydney shook her head. "I can't. Sharon helped me before, and if I suddenly distance myself from her, I’ll seem ungrateful. I also believe that she will not hurt me."

Moreover, no one said that someone who had killed must be a bad person.

The soldiers who protected the motherland had all dirtied their hands with blood. However, they did it for a good cause.

Cayden could only give up when he saw how stubborn Sydney was. He sighed and said, "Fine. But I hope that you can still be careful around her. Don't trust her completely."

Sydney knew that he was just being considerate and

smiled. "I will."

Very quickly, they reached their destination.

Layden parked his car and got off with Sydney.

A waiter led the both of them to the suite where Finn was.

Finn stood in front of the window and was toying with a small scalpel. When he heard someone behind him, he turned around slowly.

"You only brought one person?" Finn threw Layden a glance and stared right at Sydney.

Sydney replied lightly, "Of course, not. Others are all hiding in the dark."

On the way there, she contacted a security company and spent almost a hundred thousand to hire ten bodyguards.

Those ten bodyguards should have already arrived at the hotel by now. When she just walked in, she could already feel someone watching her.

"Didn't you ask me to come here, so I can see what Lyra is up to? Where is she now?" Sydney asked after looking around the room.

Finn pulled a chair and made a gesture for her to take a seat. "She’s not here yet. She will also not come to this suite. This is where you'll listen to our conversation when I speak to her next door. The other suite is already bugged."

He pointed at the device on the table.

"I see." Sydney put down her bag and sat down.

Layden sat down beside her.

Suddenly, Finn’s phone rang.

He fished it out of his pocket and took a glance at it.

He then placed his phone back. “She’s here. I'll head over there."

Sydney nodded.

Finn straightened his clothes and left.

Very quickly, Sydney heard someone's conversation through the device.

It was Lyra and Finn.

"Where did you go? The suite was empty just now." Lyra was notably upset at Finn as she complained.

All along, whenever she said that she wanted to see him, he would always be the one waiting for her.

This was the first time he made her wait for him instead. This made her unhappy, and she suddenly felt like she was looked down upon.

"I went to the washroom, sorry." Finn pulled a chair and sat down.

Lyra threw her bag to the side. "I came to you because of Sydney. I want you to kill her immediately."

Finn narrowed his eyes.

At the suite next door, Sydney felt a chill down her spine.

Lyra asked Finn to kill her.

Was it because she failed after so many attempts, so she was now asking someone to do it instead?

"Sydney..." Layden clenched his fists, his usual gentle expression replaced with a terrifying coldness. "That woman is evil!"

Sydney pursed her lips. "I know that. I knew that long ago.

When they were both in university, Sydney already knew that Lyra was not a good character.

However, it was only when Lyra regained her consciousness that Sydney realized she had no conscience at all.

"Why are you suddenly asking me to kill her? Did she do anything to you?" Finn lowered his gaze and tried to cover the anger in his eyes. He poured a cup of tea for Lyra.

Lyra pushed the cup away. "Have you heard about Julien's car accident?"

Finn glanced at the cup she pushed aside and his eyes darkened. "Of course. But I'm on leave today so I didn't see him."

"Julien's car accident occurred at Shallow Bay, and it was last night around 11 pm. My father called him during then, asking him to come and see me. He rejected him and was driving to see Sydney. How can I not be angry?!" Lyra said with a twisted expression, her entire body trembling in anger.

"Alright, I'll do it. Drink some tea and calm down. You just woke up a few months ago, and you’re still not fully recovered. Getting so worked up will do no good."

Finn placed the cup in front of her once more and tried to convince her.

Lyra liked the way Finn seemed to curry favor with her. She gave him an arrogant glance and said, "Fine, since it's for my sake, I’ll take a sip."

Finn smiled and said nothing.

Lyra took the glass and took a sip. "Why is this sweet?"

"I put in some sugar. Didn’t you say that tea is bitter?" Finn pushed his glasses as he said.

Lyra did not give it much thought and took another sip.

She subconsciously finished the entire cup.

Finn looked at the empty cup and smiled.

Just then, Lyra's phone rang. When she saw that it was Velma, a flash of surprise appeared on her face. She quickly answered the phone, "Aunt, is Julien awake?"

"Yes. He just did."

"I’ll be right there." Lyra stood up.

She kept her phone and looked toward Finn. "I don't know when will Sydney go for an abortion, so let's give up on the idea of killing her on the table."

"Then what do you want me to do?" Finn stood up as well.

Lyra tightened her fist and gave him a malicious smile. "Car accidents, kidnapping, or poisoning. As long as you can kill her quickly together with the child in her belly, you can do whatever you want. I don't want to hear any failure from you. If you fail once more, then I'll ignore you for the rest of your life."

Finn pretended to be shocked. His pale face appeared even paler than before.

"Don't worry, I will not fail." He looked at her with a steady gaze.

Lyra sneered and left.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

To Lyra, Finn was just a servant at her disposal. She knew him well, and she knew that the thing he was most afraid of was being ignored by his angel.

All along, she used this weakness of his to make him do all sorts of things for her.

Outside the suite, when Lyra completely disappeared, Finn took off his glasses and started cleaning them.

Do you think you could live forever?

The door behind him opened.

Finn put on his glasses again and turned around. He looked at Sydney's face and said, "Don’t worry, I won't do anything to you. I only promised her as an act."

"Sydney, don't trust him." Layden looked at Finn in alarm.

This person could easily agree to kill someone without hesitation. He must have done it before.

This person was also unpredictable. If Layden himself could not see through him, then it would be dangerous for Sydney to get any closer to this man.

"I know." Sydney nodded.

Of course, she would not trust Finn.

Even if she saved him before.

"When Lyra mentioned failure, what did she mean?” Sydney tightened her fist and stared straight at Finn.
