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 resortter,


    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 apany 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 toe out and have some


    fun. He happened to be free so he apanied 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.


    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 nced 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?"Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    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 tutge, you''ll be a


    master skier!"


    Sydney looked around therge 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 neers. When you get used to the skis and can slide freely, we''ll go to the


    intermediate slope and y." "It''s no wonder there are fewer people here and everyone is


    apanied by someone else. So, this is the beginner area." Sydney realized. She inadvertently


    nced to the side and saw two peopleing 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 saidzily,


    "Why don''t you bring your pampered act to President Flint instead? Tell him to buy out the ski resort


    and forbid us froming 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 exmation.


    "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 helpughing.


    "What are youughing 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 p 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 nced 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 ying.


    "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.


    Lukeughed at her. "Darling, you’re so dumb. How did you manage to fall using the ski pole? Don''t


    you know how to bnce 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 youe to my ce 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 asion 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 bber 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 rtively high. Sydney slid all the way down without her ski poles to


    support her, and her body started to wobble, unable to keep her bnce.


    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,ing 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."
