My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

"You're so adorable that I couldn't resist," Julien said as he wiped his lips with his thumb.

Sydney rolled her eyes at him. "Are you telling me that it's the reason you can't hold back every time?"

"Can't it be?" Julien tilted his head slightly, revealing a smile.

His smile was mischievous and devilish.

Any other man who gave such a smile would be considered sleazy.

But when Julien did that, it only made her heart race and her face burn.

He was so enchanting.

Who said only women could be so seductive?

"Knock it off! Stop smiling like that!" Sydney said, covering her face with both hands.

Julien raised an eyebrow. "Why can't I smile?"

"Don't ask why. Just do as I say." Sydney urged him.

Unwilling to disappoint her even in the slightest, he quickly complied.

"Alright, alright, I won't smile anymore. Take your hands away. Don't you find it hard to breathe like that?" Julien put away his smile, grabbed her wrists, and put her hands off her face. Then he was stunned. "Why are you blushing?"

"It's none of your business." Sydney snorted.

She opened the car door, got out of the car, and headed toward the police station.

It was so embarrassing to be charmed by the man and blush in front of him.

If Julien found out the truth, he would probably put his nose in the air.

She should not let him know.

Julien was surprised to see Sydney get out of the car and head toward the police station in such a hurry.

But soon, he figured out the reason.

She had covered her face after seeing his smile.

And then he put her hands down, he saw her blushing and huffing.

Before he smiled, she had been acting normally.

In other words, it was because of his smile that she suddenly blushed and left in embarrassment.

Otherwise, why wouldn't she answer him when he asked why her face was flushed?

It should be because of his smile.

But he had smiled at her before without eliciting such a reaction. What was going on this time?

Julien also got out and stood by the car before slightly bending down, looking into the left rearview mirror, and smiling.

He looked at himself in the mirror, but he didn't find anything special.

He still didn't know why his smile had made Sydney blush.

Perhaps, because he was a man, his feelings were different from those of a woman.

The same smile might evoke feelings in women, but not in men.

At that, he straightened up, put his hands in his pockets, and strode toward the police station.

Regardless of why Sydney reacted that way to his smile, it made him realize that he could smile at her more often and see her shy appearance.

Since she got shy, it meant that she liked him smiling like that.

He would naturally satisfy her.

It was his duty as a man to satisfy his woman.

As if he had gotten the key to something, he confidently walked into the lobby.

Sydney could see the unmistakable look of triumph on his face from afar.

Although she had no idea what had gotten into him, his demeanor left her both amused and baffled.

When he came over, Sydne curiously asked, "Did something good happen? You seem so happy."

He couldn't contain his joy.

Julien smirked and said, "It's a secret."

If he were to tell her that he had discovered something that could make her blush, she would surely warn him against doing that.

So, he would not tell her.

"A secret?" Sydney was first taken aback by his response, but then her eyes were filled with disbelief. "It seems you've learned how to keep me in suspense."

"I can't tell you." Julien raised his chin, his attitude firm.

Sydney snorted. "Whatever! I don't even want to know."

She turned her head away with feigned displeasure, waiting for him to coax her and reveal the secret to her.

This approach always worked.

However, her plan fell through this time.

Julien didn't bother to coax her or show any intention of telling her. He didn't do anything.

Sydney could naturally tell his determination not to tell her.

While she knew that Julien had every right to do so, she was still upset.

It might be the result of his indulgence.

He had hardly kept anything from her.

When he suddenly refused to tell her, it made her feel uncomfortable.

She wondered if she had been spoiled by him.

With that in mind, she took a deep breath, rubbed her face, and calmed down.

She told herself not to act like an unreasonable woman.

The thought of the tendency alone sent a shiver down her spine.

It was terrifying. She would not become that kind of woman who always went crazy when she didn't get what she wanted.

She would be better off as a rational and smart woman.

Such a woman wouldn't lose control and become a laughing stock even if she couldn't have what she desired.

She decided to manage her temper. She couldn't lose herself and change her character just because of the indulgence she received from this man.

After sorting out her thoughts, she looked at Julien again. Her earlier dissatisfaction was gone, and she just snorted. "Forget it. Tell me when you're ready." "Alright." Julien didn't know what had been going on in Sydney's mind, but he could feel a change in her.

If just a while ago, she was bristling, and now she had calmed down.

This indicated that she had excellent control over her emotions and could regulate them effectively.

Just as he was thinking, a police officer approached, holding a notebook. "Ms. Raines, Mr. Flint."

He nodded to them.

Sydney smiled at him.

Julien said nothing. He didn't want to talk to any other man.

His impolite behavior didn't offend the police officer at all.

It was a trivial matter, and it was a normal reaction from someone with high status.

To be honest, he would feel strange if Julien greeted him politely.

"This way, please. Our captain is waiting for you in his office." The officer made a gesture of invitation.

Sydney nodded with a smile. "Thank you."

"You're welcome," the officer replied before walking ahead to lead the way.

Sydney and Julien followed behind him, hand in hand.

Along the way, Sydney asked about Greta's recent situation, and the officer patiently asked her questions.

When Sydney heard that Greta hadn't been in a good state in the detention center, she felt no sympathy at all. On the contrary, she thought it served the woman well.

Greta deserved it.
