My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 53 Afraid That the Second-Hand Husband Would Be Taken Away

Lyra held the man's arm with a smile on her face, and spoke in a light tone, "I've been asleep for so long and forgot how to ski. I’ll need you to teach me how to ski when we get to the ski resort later, Mr. Flint."

Julien looked at her feet and asked with a frown, "Are your feet okay?"

"It's just a small injury. I've been in the hospital for so long and recovered long ago." Lyra smiled faintly and tightened her hold on his arm. "It's rare that you have time to accompany me out. I want to spend time having fun with you."

"Okay," the man responded softly.

After Lyra was discharged from the hospital, she said that she wanted to come out and have some fun. He happened to be free so he accompanied her out, but he did not expect her to choose to come to Ibul Resort.

Sydney was probably here to find Michael after getting the information from him earlier.

After entering the ski resort, Sydney and Luke went to the store to rent a full set of ski equipment before going to the dressing room to change. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

The ski clothes and shoes were a bit bulky, but Sydney quickly adapted. After going down, she found there were many guests on every hill.

She glanced around and saw everyone wearing ski clothes. They all looked pretty much the same...

After searching several hills, Sydney got tired and her eyes were a little sore. "This ski resort is too large. Luke, did you see Mr. Idris?"

She did not get a response for a long time and turned around only to find that no one was behind her.

"Looking for me, darling?" Luke skied down from a high slope, sliding gracefully on the board under his feet, and stopped steadily in front of Sydney.

Sydney was speechless in anger. "I told you to help me find Mr. Idris, but you went skiing instead?"

"There are too many people here. We have to split up to find him!" Luke picked up his skis and pulled her away. "C'mon, darling. I'll teach you how to ski. Under my tutelage, you'll become a master skier!"

Sydney looked around the large ski area. There were so many people that she decided to give up.

Luke pulled Sydney to the beginner snow track. "This is the beginner track. The slope is gentle so it’s suitable for newcomers. When you get used to the skis and can slide freely, we'll go to the intermediate slope and play." "It's no wonder there are fewer people here and everyone is accompanied by someone else. So, this is the beginner area." Sydney realized. She inadvertently glanced to the side and saw two people coming from the track.

What a coincidence. They were people she knew.

Lyra also saw Sydney. Her gaze turned cold for an instant before she quickly greeted them with a smile," Ms. Raines, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here with your boyfriend."

"We're not close, Ms. Madden. You don’t have to force yourself to say hello to us," Luke said lazily, "Why don't you bring your pampered act to President Flint instead? Tell him to buy out the ski resort and forbid us from coming so we won’t have to run into each other."

Lyra pursed her pink lips. "Did I offend you, Mr. Chase? You’re going overboard...”

"Have you forgotten what happened in the club so quickly?" Luke suddenly let out an exclamation. "Oh, right. You only have President Flint in your heart.

You're terrified that this second-hand husband will be snatched away, so of course, you won't care to remember anything else."

Lyra went slightly pale, looking soft and pitiful.

Luke made a fool out of her that time in the club, and his tongue was even sharper this time!

What a nuisance!

"Oh my, I’m just scolding you a little and you're already making that face." Luke put on a scared expression and said to Julien, "President Flint, your girlfriend is more fragile than a flower. Make sure to take good care of her and don't let her break!”

Julien's eyes darkened but he did not say anything. He took Lyra to the other side to help her adjust her equipment.

"C'mon darling, I'll help you." Luke squatted and helped Sydney fix the skis on her shoes with a cold snort. "Tsk! I also know how to dote on other people!"

Sydney was amused by him and could not help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Luke stood up and tousled his short hair. His thin lips curled up slightly. "Do you think I’m super handsome? Darling, why don't you put on some weight?"

"Shut up." Sydney smacked him with the ski pole. " Don't force me to slap you!"

Luke was smacked by Sydney two more times and stopped messing around. He became serious and held her carefully, letting her adapt to the skis.

Lyra was not far from them and blushed when she heard their conversation. She said softly, "Although there aren’t many people here, they can’t... How can they flirt so openly? They're so shameless."

Julien glanced over at Sydney and frowned tightly.

He thought that Sydney came here to find Michael Idris to talk about business. He did not expect to see her flirting with Luke, skiing, and playing.

"Ignore them," Julien said in a low voice. The temperature around him inexplicably dropped several degrees.

Lyra felt a tingle and looked up to see the man's cold face. It was as if the ups and downs of his mood were just her imagination.

Sydney was a beginner skier and did not know anything. After Luke taught her and let go, she slowly started using the ski poles.

After slipping twice, her body pitched involuntarily and she fell to the snow.

Luke laughed at her. "Darling, you’re so dumb. How did you manage to fall using the ski pole? Don't you know how to balance your body?"

"Shut up!"

Sydney saw that to the side, Lyra had already learned to skillfully use the ski poles and could ski around freely. She felt even more upset and got up, gritted her teeth, and continued to practice.

After falling countless times, Sydney was finally able to skillfully control the ski poles and ski freely around the path. At that moment, she finally realized the joys of skiing and immersed herself in the experience. She did not pay attention to the people around her.

In the afternoon when they went to the ski resort again, Sydney went with Luke to the intermediate slope.

There were more people here and it was also more lively.

Luke stopped teaching Sydney. He also put on his skis and went down the slope with her.

Perhaps he was too bored, but he kept chatting with Sydney and distracting her.

"Darling, why don't your grandfather and you come to my place for dinner on New Year's Eve?” Luke said," My Mom called the other day to nag at me. She said that she wanted to see you."

After getting married, Sydney spent all her New Year's Eve with Julien's family. This year, she divorced Julien.

She did not agree immediately. "Let's talk about it another time."

She knew that Luke cared for her, but the Raines family still had her grandfather and her. She did not want to go to someone else's house for an occasion like this and ruin the atmosphere there. She guessed that her grandfather would not want that either.

Luke sighed. "Can’t you do me this favor on behalf of my handsome face, my girlfriend?" "Fake girlfriend!" Sydney snapped.

She did not want to hear Luke blabber and pushed herself forward with her ski poles. She brushed past Luke and slid down.

After sliding a few feet, she heard the sound of skis scraping across the snow behind her.

Pain exploded at her back before she could react. Her ski poles were knocked away from the impact and she rushed down the slope.

"Sydney!" Luke's expression sank and he immediately chased after her.

The slope of this track was relatively high. Sydney slid all the way down without her ski poles to support her, and her body started to wobble, unable to keep her balance.

A figure slid down from the side, approached Sydney, and reached out to pull her hand. The person swiftly wrapped her hand around his waist and said in a low voice, "Hold tight. Don't let go."

Sydney was in a panic. When she vaguely heard the voice in her ear, she immediately hugged the man's waist.

Julien took his time controlling the skis and slid down the slope. He skied effortlessly even while carrying another person and soon reached the bottom of the slope, coming to a steady stop.

"We're here, Ms. Raines,” Julien said when the woman did not let him go, "What's wrong? Do you want to hold

me more?"

Julien Flint?

When Sydney recognized the man's voice, she immediately let go and distanced herself from him.

She took off her helmet, revealing her calm face as usual. "My apologies. I thought you were my boyfriend, so I hugged you very tightly. Thank you, President Flint."
