Chapter 301 Lyra''s Admirer
Cayden went to the forest to shoot for a magazine. He did not expect to see so much news about
Sydney popping up on his phone when he left the forest and had coverage again.
How dare that woman Lyra falsely use Sydney of harming her and discredit Sydney’s
reputation?
There were also those reporters,izens, and that person who threw sulfuric acid. He would not let
any of them off!
Sydney heard the suppressed anger in Layden’s voice and knew that the always gentle young man
was furious after he heard about what happened to her. She hurriedly said, "Don''t worry, Cay. I''m
fine." "Are you sure? The sulfuric acid..." "The acid didn''t ssh on me. Many reporters saw what
happened. There should be a video on the Inte as well, so you can watch it. I didn''t get hurt."
Sydney shook her head.
Layden lowered his eyes. "I know. I watched it, but I was still worried.”
"Are you at ease now?" Sydney chuckled.
Layden hummed. "Yeah. It''s good that you''re fine, Sis. Leave everything else to me. I''ll handle it."
"Huh?" Sydney was confused. "What do you mean? What are you nning to do, Lay?"
Layden''s eyes narrowed in a smile, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "You''ll know soon. In short.
I''ll make all those who treat you badly pay the price!"
Then, he hung up the phone.
"Cay? Cayden?" Sydney shouted twice, but there was no response from the phone.
She hurriedly brought the phone in front of her to see that the screen had returned to the home
page. Only then did she realize that Cayden hung up on her. "That boy..."
For some reason, Sydney felt a little uneasy in her heart. She felt that Cayden s words were a
prelude to something big happeningter.
She hoped that she was just overthinking it.

"What are you thinking about? You''re pulling a long face." Julien''s deep voice mixed with concern
came into her ear.
Sydney put the phone down. "Nothing. How did you get in? The reporters..." "They''ve been expelled
from the police station." Julien sat down beside her.
"You asked the police to do it?" Sydney gave him a side nce. "But the reporters stayed outside
for so long without the police driving them away, so it’s not likely that the police will chase them
away now... Unless you had a hand in it."
Julien chuckled when she guessed the truth so quickly. "Yes, it was me. You''ve been in here for so
long, and I was worried about you and didn''t want to wait in the car, so I asked the police to chase
those reporters away. However, that''s only one of the reasons."
Sydney frowned. "Are there any other reasons?"
Julien nodded. "Grandma just called."
Sydney straightened up. "What did she say?
"She heard about what happened today and was very worried about you, so she called you.
However, she couldn’t get through, so she called me to ask me about you." Julien crossed his legs
gracefully.
Sydney smiled gently. "I need to thank her for caring about me. How did she know you were with
me?"
"She watched the video online and recognized me as the one who saved you," Julien responded.
Sydney lifted her chin in realization. "I see."
Others might not recognize Julien, but there was no way Old Madam Flint would not be able to
recognize him either.
"All right. Help me thank Grandma for her concern. I''ll visit her in a few days." Sydney rubbed her
temples.
Julien hummed. "Sure. I''ll pick you up then. "No need. I know where the old Flint residence is. I can
go there by myself. Why should you pick me up?" Sydney lowered her eyes and said in a faint
voice.
Julien pursed his thin lips and said nothing.
He knew that she just did not want to go with him.
The two had no other words and fell silent.
After a while, a police officer came over. " Ms. Raines. We''ve finished the interrogation with the
person who threw sulfuric acid at you."
Sydney immediately stood up at the words.
Julien also stood up. "What did he say?
Was he bribed? Or did he have a grudge against Sydney?"
Those two questions were what Sydney wanted to know the most, so she kept her eyes on the
police officer, waiting for his answer.
The officer shook his head. "Neither. He wasn''t bribed, and he has no enmity with Ms. Raines
either."
"Then why did he do it?" Sydney''s beautiful brows were slightly twisted.
Julien saw it and wanted to reach out to smooth out her frown, but when he guessed that she would
avoid it, he decided not to. He just said in a soft voice, "Don''t frown. It''s not pretty."
Sydney gave him a side nce and found it strange.
She did not care if she did not look pretty when frowning.
Why would he care?
She ignored him and returned her gaze to the police officer.
The officer straightened his cap and replied, "His name is Frank Powell. He''s a high school
ssmate of Lyra Madden, as well as her admirer. His family is in the chemical business, which was
why he could obtain sulfuric acid."
"I see." Sydney pursed her red lips.
She had wondered how an ordinary person got contraband like sulfuric acid.
It turned out that it was because his family was in the business.
Julien said with a gloomy face, "Did hee to Sydney for revenge because he saw Lyra''s live
broadcast?"
"Not exactly. It''s mainly because of Lyra''s phone call," said the officer.
Sydney clenched her fists and asked at the same time as Julien, "What phone call?"
"ording to Frank''s statement, he said that Lyra called him before the live broadcast. On the
phone, she cried about what happened to her, saying that she was in pain and did not want to live
anymore. Frank told her not to be impulsive, and Lyra said that she didn''t want to be impulsive
either. However, she can''t be calm because her enemy is still living in this world."
"So Frank came at me with sulfuric acid?" Sydney asked with gritted teeth.
The officer nodded. "Yes. That''s pretty much it."
"Is what Lyra did regard as deliberately inciting a crime?" Julien suddenly asked.
The officer nodded again. "Yes."
Sydney bit her lower lip tightly and trembled with anger.
What a vicious move!
''Lyra not only ndered me online and framed me, but she also used her admirer toe after me.
This double-pronged attack was clever.''
"Can Lyra be arrested ording to this?" Sydney looked at the officer and asked urgently.
The officer shook his head. "Not for the time being. At present, we only know that Lyra might have
falsely used you and that she instigated Frank tomit a crime. However, this doesn''t
constitute a condition for arrest."
Sydney''s expression darkened.
It didn''t constitute a condition to arrest
Lyra. It seems we can''t use legal means to deal with her for the time being. We can only fight fire
with fire. We''ll use Lyra''s own method to deal with her!
''However, I still have to admire her. Every time she causes trouble, she always hides behind
something else and uses other people to do her dirty work. Meanwhile, she''ll always bepletely
clean, so no one can get evidence of her.
''She has such a clever head. It''s a pity that she doesn''t use it in a proper way.''
Sydney narrowed her eyes and then asked, "By the way, can I meet Frank?"
"No. An official order has been issued to transfer Frank to the detention center, so no one can see
him except for hiswyer. Unfortunately, the victim can''t see him either. You''ll have to wait until the
court session," the officer exined.
The corners of Sydney''s lips pulled. "All right. Thank you. I''ll get going now."
"Sure." The officer nodded.
Sydney nced at Julien, and the two left the police station.
