Chapter 261 Let Her Go
Julien''s eyes darkened. "I did promise you, but I only promised that I wouldn''t stop you. I didn''t
promise not to remarry Sydney."
"You..." Hunter''s face twisted with anger.
However, he soon calmed down again. "Fine. You''re very good at exploiting loopholes, but do you
think you can remarry her just because you want to? Do you think she''ll agree?"
Julien''s lips moved but he did not answer.
Hunter saw this and smiled mockingly. "Look, even you don''t have the confidence to answer that
question. Then let me answer it for you. Sydney won''t remarry you, so you better dispel those
unrealistic thoughts while it''s still early."
"What makes you think Sydney won''t remarry me?" Julien looked at him expressionlessly.
"Because of the way you treated her these past six years!" Hunter crossed his arms and said in a
cold voice, "Have you forgotten about the emotional abuse you put her through? What right do you
have to remarry her? Because you found out that you''re in love with her? Julien Flint, don''t you
think you''re ridiculous?"
Julien''s fists clenched at the caustic remarks.
Yes, he could not deny what he had done to Sydney in the past.
However, now that he knew that he was wrong, he would make it up to her twice as much.
Hunter did not know what Julien was thinking and rubbed his temples. "Julien, to be honest, I think
that you''re unworthy. When you don''t love her, you turn a blind eye to her. When you love her, you
want to get back together with her. What do you take her for? A toy that you can take or throw away
as you please?"
Julien narrowed his eyes unhappily. "That''s just what you think!"
"Yes, that''s just what I think, but isn''t what I said true? If you didn''t love Sydney, why did you agree
to marry her? She already said that she won''t force you if you refuse, but you didn''t refuse, did
you?"
Hunter looked at him. "Since you didn''t refuse, that means you did it voluntarily. However, after the
marriage, you didn''t care about her, you allowed her to be bullied by your family, and you were even
one of the bullies yourself. How deeply did she love you back then? Do you know how much your
attitude hurt her?"
Julien pursed his thin lips tightly and did not speak.
He knew. Of course, he knew.
He still remembered that when they first got married, she looked at him with eyes so bright they
seemed to be shining with light. However, gradually, the light in her eyes disappeared and turned
gray and sullen. Even her whole person seemed to wither away.
However, what did he do at that time?
Instead of being concerned about why she became like that, he felt annoyed looking at her!
It was him who let her down!
At that thought, Julien felt like his heart was being pricked by needles, causing a dense pain.
Seeing Julien remain silent, Hunter sighed again. "Do you think that''s all the damage you''ve done to
Sydney?"
Julien''s eyelids trembled.
Hunter continued, "When Lyra just woke up, you told Sydney to move out of Flint Mansion just to
make room for Lyra. At that time, you hadn''t divorced yet. Sydney was still your wife, but you made
your real wife make room for a third party. Not even hedonistic yboys like Nathan Leigh could do
something like that, but you, a person who received an elite education, did it."
Saying this, heughed iprehensibly. "Did you know? I was very confused when I heard that. I
even wondered if you were possessed by a ghost. More importantly, what you did was undoubtedly
sticking a knife in Sydney''s heart."
"That wasn''t my intention!" Julien suddenly lifted his eyes.
However, he knew in his heart that even if he was hypnotized, he could not deny that he did those
things.
Hunter shook his head. "What''s the use of saying whether or not it was your intention? In the past
few months, Lyra repeatedly harmed Sydney, but you didn''t do a single thing about it. How
shameless can you be to pursue Sydney and remarry her? Julien, just let her go. She finally got out
of this rtionship and found herself again. Can''t you just leave her be?"
"You''re saying so much to me, but that''s your true motive, right? You just want me to let go of
Sydney so I won''t get in your way of pursuing her." Julien looked at him mockingly.
Hunter lowered his head. "You''re right, I do have that motive, but more than that, I''m upset for her.
Julien, are you sure that you can protect her after you remarry her? Unless you get rid of your
mother, Lyra, and the Madden family, you can''t protect her. You''ll only cause her to get hurt again.
Think about it carefully."
Then, he patted Julien''s shoulder and left.
When he walked to the door, he was stunned to see Old Madam Flint and Felicia. He was just about
to greet her.
However, the Old Madam shook her head at him.
Hunter smiled in understanding and walked away.
Only then did the Old Madam push open the door and
enter. "Julien."
"Grandma, you''re here," Julien put down the hand that was kneading his temples and said in a
slightly hoarse voice.
The Old Madam sat down by the hospital bed. "Zach said that you had a fever, so I came to check
on you. I didn''t expect to hear your conversation with Hunter. Julien, did you fall in love with Syd?"
"The person I love has always been her." Julien lowered his eyes.
Whether it was Maple Leaf or Sydney, they were both the same person.
He first fell in love with Maple Leaf, and then he fell in love with Sydney.
He fell in love with the same person twice!
The Old Madam listened to Julien''s answer without the slightest surprise on her face as if she had
known it all along.
Julien''s heart sank.
Sure enough, everyone knew that he was in love with Sydney, but no one told him.
If someone had told him, would he have understood his heart earlier and found out that he was
hypnotized sooner?
Julien pursed his lips tightly in thought.
The Old Madam sighed. "I told you back then not to regret it, and you said that you''d never regret it.
But now..."
Julien felt like he had been pped hard. His face felt hot and painful.
Yes, back then, his grandmother had advised him not to divorce and to live well with Sydney, but he
did not listen. His grandmother told him not to regret it, and he told her very firmly that he would
never regret it.
Now, he regretted it...
Julien''s heart ached terribly.
The Old Madam noticed the change in his emotions and patted the back of his hand. "It''s toote to
regret it now, Julien. Listen to Hunter and just let go."
"No!" Julien refused with a gloomy expression. "I''ve loved her for more than ten years. How can I let
her go?"

"Ten years? Didn''t you and Syd only meet six years ago? What do you mean by ten years?" The
Old Madam was confused.
Julien clenched his fists and looked at her. "Grandma, Sydney was my pen pal."
"What?" The Old Madam was stunned. "Syd was your pen pal? In other words, Lyra was fake?"
"Yes." A trace of anger and hatred shed in Julien''s eyes at the mention of Lyra. He gritted his
teeth and said, "She impersonated Sydney!"
The Old Madam took a while to calm the waves in her heart and patted her chest. "No wonder Lyra
didn''t even know what kind of flowers you like. So, she was fake. As for you, you couldn''t even tell
whether your pen pal was real or fake? How are you even managing such arge corporation?"
The Old Madam rolled her eyes at Julien.
''That woman Lyra is so horrid! How could she have done something as shameless as
impersonating another person''s identity?
''Julien is also a fool who couldn''t tell which was real and which was fake. If he had realized earlier
that Syd was the real one, maybe they’d have a child old enough to run now.''
