My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 166 Hunter's Selfishness

"I don't know either, but he looks to be of high status. He drove a luxury car and wore a floral shirt..."

A floral shirt?

The corners of Hunter's mouth twitched as a figure instantly appeared in his mind.

"I know who it is. Where is he?" Hunter asked.

The butler said, "Outside."

"Invite him in. I'll be right downstairs," Hunter instructed.

The butler agreed and went down.

Hunter picked up the phone again, said a few words to the person on the other end, and hung up the call. Then, he closed the door to the room and went downstairs.

He wondered why Luke suddenly came to find him.

"Luke." Hunter came downstairs to see Luke on the sofa. He scratched his hair and asked, "What do you want from me to come all the way to my house?"

Luke put down the coffee cup in his hand, stood up and crossed the table, then angrily stalked toward Hunter.

When he walked up to Hunter, he grabbed the latter's tie and asked loudly, "Where's that man?"

Hunter was stunned. "What man?" "That son of a b*tch who bullied my darling that night! " Luke roared with red eyes.

Hunter's expression changed when he heard this. " What did you say? Sydney was bullied?"

"Yes. On the night of my birthday, my darling got drunk and was bullied by your friend. Now, she's even..."

"She's what?" Hunter tore Luke's hand away and grabbed his collar in return, asking urgently, "What happened to her?"

Luke looked at Hunter's anxious appearance and found it a little strange.

'He seems a little too concerned about my darling.'

However, Luke did not think much about it. He

pushed Hunter away, clenched his fists, and replied," My darling is pregnant!"

"What?" Hunter's eyes widened.

Sydney... was pregnant?

"Are you telling me who that man is or not?" Luke yelled.

Hunter's mouth opened.

How was he supposed to tell?

That person was Julien.

Seeing Hunter remain silent and lower his head to think, Luke became even more furious until his fists began to shake. "Hunter Cohen, are you covering for that man?"

"No..."

"If you're not, then tell me. It's bad enough that he didn't show himself after bullying my darling, but is he planning to hide now that she's pregnant?" Luke asked between gritted teeth.

Hunter’s expression was odd. "No, he's not in the country now."

"He's overseas?" Luke cracked his knuckles. "Hah, does he think he can escape responsibility by running abroad? Don't even think about it. Call him right now and tell him to get back here!"

A trace of guilt flashed in Hunter's eyes. "I'm afraid that won't work. Although I'm his friend, I'm not a particularly close friend. He's quite mysterious, so I can't guarantee that I can get in touch with him."

"What?" Luke frowned.

Hunter coughed. "Well, you should leave first. I'll try contacting him later. I'll tell you when I get a hold of him, okay?"

"No, I'm not going. Give me his number. I'll contact him myself." Luke held out his hand.

Hunter did not expect Luke to be so stubborn and felt overwhelmed for a moment.

How would he dare to give out Julien's phone number? If Luke and Sydney found out that the man that night was Julien, no one could predict what would happen.

Moreover, he was selfish at heart. He did not want Sydney to know that the child in her belly belonged to Julien.

After thinking about it, Hunter narrowed his eyes. ' Fine, fine, I'll give it to you. Hurry up and leave."

He went to the coffee table, grabbed a pen and paper from the drawer at the bottom, wrote a string of numbers, and handed it to Luke.

Luke glanced at it. "What's his name?"

"When he came to Mediana, he casually used a fake name here. There's no point giving you his name," Hunter said, rolling his eyes.

Luke clenched the note. "Damn it, he's a foreigner? Aren't foreigners self-proclaimed gentlemen? How could he be shameless enough to drag a drunken lady into a room? When I get a hold of him, I'll personally go abroad and beat him up."

Luke left while cursing.

Hunter wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

Great. He finally got rid of this annoying person.

Hunter went back upstairs and dialed Julien's

number.

As if Julien had expected him to call, the first words he asked were, "Did Luke look for you?"

"How did you know?" Hunter was shocked.

Julien lowered his eyes. "Sydney told me."

Hunter was struck by the realization and curled his lips. "Oh, right, I almost forgot. You hide your identity and become Sydney's friend. Luke wants to cause trouble for you through me, so she'll let you know."

Julien frowned slightly when he heard the sour tone in Hunter's voice.

What was he sour about?

"Since you already know that Luke came to me, you should also know about Sydney's pregnancy, right?" Hunter asked.

Nearly two months ago, the morning after Luke's birthday, Julien called him and told him to get rid of the surveillance of the club. He was curious about what surveillance to get rid of, so he had a look just before he did it. He was shocked when he saw Julien enter a room with Sydney in his arms.

Thus, Sydney probably got pregnant on that night.

"I know." Julien nodded slightly.

Hunter narrowed his eyes. "Listening to your tone, you don't seem surprised. It's as if you knew a long time ago."

Julien hummed in agreement.

Hunter guessed it right!

"How long have you known?" he asked.

Julien pursed his lips and answered, "It's been several days."

Hunter suddenly remembered the day at the equestrian park, and the corners of his lips pulled. "No wonder you stopped Sydney when she wanted to go horseback riding. You already knew from back then, didn't you?"

"Yeah," Julien responded faintly. Then, he asked in a low voice, "Did you tell Luke that it was me that night?"

"No. You told me to get rid of the surveillance because you didn't want Sydney to know who the person that night was. How could I tell him?" Hunter replied with slightly dim eyes.

"Thank you."

"You don't have to thank me. Now, all I want to know is how you plan on dealing with this matter. Are you going to remarry Sydney?" Hunter slowly clenched his phone.

At the word "remarry”, Julien's heart seemed to move slightly.

However, he soon thought of something and suppressed it again.

"No." Julien pinched his temples tiredly. "I failed Lyra

once. I can't fail her again."

"You failed her?" Hunter rolled his eyes in disdain. " Whatever. If you're sure..."

If it were in the past, he would have persuaded him to remarry Sydney. After all, Sydney was pregnant with his child, and Lyra really was not worthy of him.

However, now, he knew that he might have some feelings for Sydney, so he naturally would not persuade Julien.

"If you don't remarry, then what about the baby in her belly? You have to take responsibility, right?" Hunter gathered his thoughts and asked.

Julien lowered his eyes. "I will. If Sydney is willing to keep it, I'll secretly raise the child with her. If she doesn't want to keep it, I'll do my best to make it up to her."

"That's good, but you have to tell Sydney what you think as well."

"I know. I'll tell her what I think when she makes a decision about what to do with the child," Julien said with a heavy voice.

Hunter thought for a few seconds. "I think you shouldn't wait until that time. If you want to tell her, then tell her earlier. If you wait until that time to tell her, she might not necessarily accept it."

Julien fell silent.

Hunter sighed. "Well, that's all I have to say. Think it

over."
