My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 297 Collecting Evidence

The group of reporters who saw them instantly got excited. They raised their mics and cameras, wanting to break free from the bodyguards.

However, there were not as many reporters here as there were at the main entrance, but there were more than twice the amount of bodyguards here than at the main entrance.

Thus, the two dozen or so reporters here were completely held back by the thirty or so bodyguards. They could not get past the bodyguards' blockade no matter how they struggled.

These reporters were simply furious and hated the bodyguards.

They had no choice but to shout at Sydney Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

from a distance, "Ms. Raines, did you send someone to defile Ms. Madden?"

"Yes, Ms. Raines. Please comment."

Sydney frowned but ignored them. She did not even look at the reporters.

Of course, the reporters were dissatisfied with her attitude and threw out several questions one after another.

"Ms. Raines, by not commenting, are you admitting that you had someone defile Ms. Madden?"

"Did you arrange for six men to defile Ms. Madden? Don't you think you're too vicious to do that?"

"Vicious?" Sydney finally stopped.

The man beside her also stopped.

The two of them turned to the reporters together.

Sydney stared at the reporter who spoke with a cold face. "You called me vicious?"

"A... Am I wrong?" The reporters could not help but shiver in the face of her emotionless eyes.

He wondered how a woman could feel so oppressive.

There was that man beside her too.

Although he was wearing shades and the reporter could not see his face clearly, he could tell that the man was also using a terrifying gaze to look at him. It felt like his neck was being strangled. He could hardly breathe.

That man also looked familiar. It was as if he had seen him somewhere before.

Sydney sneered sarcastically. "It seems you all believed in Lyra's rhetoric and called me vicious because you think that I did such a thing to her. Are you all mindless? You're adults, but you don't even have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. If you ask me, it's Lyra Madden who’s vicious!"

Hearing this, the reporters were first stunned, and then they became even more excited.

"Ms. Raines, are you trying to say that Ms. Madden was lying? You haven't done such a thing?"

"Ms. Raines, do you have evidence to prove it?"

The reason why they believed Lyra was because she directly broadcasted it on the Internet and confessed in public that Sydney schemed against her.

After all, how would a person who dared to make a public statement lie? If Lyra lied, it would be the same as walking to her doom. That was why they did not believe that

Lyra would risk ruining the rest of her life just to deliberately slander Sydney on the Internet.

However, Sydney's words shook their inner conviction.

Some of the reporters started streaming live when Sydney came out. There were hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast lobby at that moment.

When these hundreds of thousands of viewers heard what Sydney said, they began to discuss.

[Sydney is right. We're all adults and have to distinguish right from wrong. Although Lyra said that she was harmed by Sydney, haven't you noticed that she didn't produce any substantial evidence from beginning to end? She just said that online, so whether it's true or not remains to be found out.]

[That's right. The most important thing is that as a victim, shouldn't the first thing Lyra do would be to call the police? Why didn't she do that but go online to say that Sydney harmed her? It’s clear she’s trying to use us netizens to build hype.]

This was what the more sober-minded netizens said.

However, the other parties who firmly believed that Sydney was the one who plotted against Lyra did not think so.

[The reason why Lyra said it online is to tell us the truth. She wants us to know just what kind of person Sydney is. If I were Lyra, I would've done the same thing. Let the whole world see Sydney’s true face.] [I agree. As for why she didn’t call the police, Sydney also didn't call the police. If Sydney was framed, she could've called the police too. However, she didn't, which means there's a problem.]

The two groups of viewers were in a terrible uproar.

In the hospital ward, Lyra was also watching the live broadcast. When she saw the comments of the clear-headed netizens, she almost threw the tablet in anger.

However, her heart felt somewhat comforted when she saw that there was another wave of netizens standing by her side.

Sydney did not know about the live broadcast. Her gaze swept over the group of reporters indifferently. "It's true that I don't have evidence to prove my innocence currently, but that might change at night." Her words instantly made the entire parking lot quiet.

A few seconds later, the reporters and the viewers in the live broadcast stirred up again.

"Ms. Raines, do you mean that you’re already collecting evidence now and that you'll finish collecting it by tonight?" a reporter asked quickly.

This reporter was met with jealousy and hatred from the other reporters.

How could this guy ask the question so quickly?

"Yes!" Sydney nodded. Then, she looked at the reporter's camera and said in a serious tone, "I’ll disclose the evidence to everyone before midnight to prove whether or not I did something wrong to Lyra Madden. If it’s proven I didn't do anything, TH make sure she rots in jail!"

Finn's surgery should be over by midnight.

If he did not give her evidence, then she would expose him instead. She had the recordings of his phone calls in her hand where Finn talked about how he wanted to deal with Lyra.

Thus, no matter what, she had a way out!

In the ward, Lyra's heart stuttered when she heard Sydney's words on the live stream. Her hand holding the tablet also tightened up as she was filled with uneasiness.

Sydney said that she was collecting evidence and that she would finish collecting it before midnight.

Could it be possible?

Lyra’s heart raced as if it was about to jump out of her throat. She panicked.

She did not know whether what Sydney said was true or not, and she did not dare to gamble. If it was true, then she would be finished.

She dared to slander Sydney because she was convinced that Sydney could not produce evidence to prove her innocence, but now...

Lyra bit her lip fiercely, regret started to well up in her heart.

In the parking lot, the reporters wanted to continue asking questions.

However, Sydney felt that she had said everything that she wanted to say, so there was no need to waste time with these reporters. Everything would be revealed at midnight.

She turned her head to look at Julien beside her. "Let's go."

Julien very much enjoyed her words. His eyes behind the sunglasses were incredibly gentle.

"Okay." He pushed up the sunglasses and agreed in a soft voice.

He put on the shades in the elevator on purpose so that the reporters would not be able to recognize him and cause a bigger storm.

After all, everyone knew that they were ex-husband and wife. He was even Lyra's exfiance.

Now that something like this happened between Lyra and Sydney, if the reporters find out that he came to his ex-wife right after breaking off his engagement with Lyra, they would make a big deal out of it and cause Sydney even more trouble.

That was why he put on the sunglasses. Fortunately, the glasses were large enough, and he was actively trying to appear inconspicuous, so the reporters did not recognize him.

When they reached the car, Sydney took out her keys and pressed the button twice to unlock the doors.

However, just as she reached out and was about to open the door, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded, accompanied by a voice full of malice. "Die, you evil woman!"
