Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!
Chapter 363 Velma's Selfishness

"He's Hunter's nephew. Their family is busy, so he asked me to take care of the little one for two days." Sydney squeezed Davey's small and fleshy hand. The child's hand was pleasant to pinch, so it felt very satisfying to squeeze.

Sydney could not help but squeeze two more times.

Finn lifted his chin in understanding." Well, you should go to Julien now. I still have patients I need to see, so I leave first."

"Okay, go ahead." Sydney nodded and took Davey to the ward she stayed at before.

When she arrived at the ward, the door suddenly opened.

Velma came out from inside and was stunned when she saw Sydney. Then, her expression instantly turned mean. "What are you doing here?"

Sydney did not expect to meet her former wicked mother-in-law. She raised her brows and asked, "Why can't I be here?"

Velma snorted coldly. "This is Julien's ward. Are you here to get back together with him?"

Sydney laughed. "Get back together with him? Why would I want to do that? Is he that desirable? Even if he is, with a mother-in-law like you who messes up the family, I wouldn't dare to get back together with him anyway."

"How dare you scold me?" Velma glared angrily.

Sydney curled her lips. "I'm not scolding you. I'm just telling the truth. Look, as soon as you married into the Flint family, you caused your husband to be punished.

Didn't you mess up the family?"

At those words, Velma's expression suddenly fell and grew depressed.

This change greatly surprised Sydney.

She thought that her words would make Velma furious.

Unexpectedly, Velma quieted down instead.

Furthermore, judging by her expression, she still seemed to be sad about this.

Was she sad that she caused her husband to be punished, or sad because of his passing?

Maybe it was both. However, Sydney was not curious about that.

What she was most curious about was why Velma was so good to Julien.

After all, Velma looked like a vicious stepmother through and through. However, she was a good stepmother. If Old Madam Flint had not revealed it, Sydney would not doubt that Julien was Velma's biological

son.

That was because there was no difference in the way Velma treated Julien and Jayden.

Even a well-educated noble lady might not necessarily treat her stepchild as well as her own, let alone an ordinary civilian like Velma. However, Velma was able to treat Julien like he was her biological child.

There must be some kind of reason for this.

However, whatever the reason was, it was none of Sydney's business. She would not ask even if she was curious.

At that thought, she rubbed her temples and said, "Okay, Mrs. Flint, stop wasting time. I'm only here to return something to President Flint. Tell him I said thanks."

Velma recovered from her grief and looked down at the exquisite bag in Sydney's hand. She regained that gloomy expression from earlier and said, "Hey, the packaging is so good. It must be a gift for Julien, yet you're still saying that you're not here to get back together with him?"

Sydney rolled her eyes.

Well, it was a waste of time to talk to people who lived in their own thoughts.

"Fine. I won't go in, so you give this to him instead." Then, Sydney directly shoved the bag into Velma's hands and took Davey to leave.

Velma looked at the disappearing adult and child's figures and curled her lips." Bah! There's no way I'll give this to Julien.

I'll throw it away once I see what it is!" 'She wants to give Julien a gift and get back together with him? Dream on!'

Velma rudely tore open the bag and took out the box inside.

Like the bag, the box was very exquisite. Velma could tell at a glance that it was a jewelry box.

In other words, there was jewelry inside?

Velma was confused. 'Why did Sydney give jewelry to Julien? Isn't jewelry usually given from men to women?

'At most, women will send watches, tie clips, cuffs, and the like, but those items won't be packed in jewelry boxes' "Why is this so mysterious? I want to see what's in it," Velma muttered and opened the box with both hands. The moment she did, the dazzling blue light almost blinded her eyes.

When she fully saw what was inside the box, she gasped and quickly shut the box, looking around. Her heart raced. It was the Azure Heart!

Velma swallowed her saliva. She could not believe that such an expensive necklace was in her hands.

For a moment, she felt the weight in her hands increase.

Of course, it felt heavy.

The Azure Heart was worth millions!

The reason why she knew about the Azure Heart was because she saw it with Julien before. Three months ago, Julien bought the Azure Heart and prepared to give it to Lyra as an engagement gift. Back then, she was incredibly bitter about it because Julien had never given her such expensive jewelry before. However, when she thought that Lyra would be marrying into the Flint family, she figured that Lyra was sure to bring the Azure Heart as well. If she asked Lyra for the Azure Heart then, Lyra would give it to her mother-in-law.

However, Lyra did not marry into the Flint family, and the Azure Heart was snatched away by Sydney. Velma was furious back then and wanted to demand the necklace back from Sydney, but Julien stopped her. As time went by, she gradually forgot about the Azure Heart.

Unexpectedly, Sydney returned the Azure Heart, and it was right here in her arms now.

Could she hide it herself in secret?

Julien did not know that Sydney came anyway.

Furthermore, she was unwilling to hand over the Azure Heart now that it had fallen into her hands. With Julien's feelings for Sydney now, if he took the necklace, he would keep it for Sydney and replace a chance to return it to her.

Thus, Velma did not want to give it to Julien. Since the necklace was in her hands, it belonged to her.

At that thought, she stuffed the box into her pocket and went back into the ward.

Julien could sit up now and did not have to lie down on his bed like for the past two days.

At that moment, he was leaning against the headboard, holding a tablet in his hand. He was reading the financial statements when he heard footsteps, and he turned around to look. "Mom? Didn't you go back already?"

"I forgot to take my phone." Velma pointed to the phone beside the bed.

Julien hummed.

Velma walked over and took the phone. " Julien, uh... Did anyone say they would be visiting you today?"

Although Julien did not know that Sydney came earlier, there was no guarantee that Sydney did not contact him before she came.

If she did, the Azure Heart...

"No. Why are you asking?" Julien narrowed his eyes on her. His deep eyes seemed to be examining her.

Velma was afraid that he would see her guilt and hurriedly lowered her eyes. She laughed dryly and said, "Nothing. I was just curious because none of your friends came to see you even though you're in the hospital. Since no one's coming, then forget it."

She was relieved.

It seemed like Sydney did not tell him in advance. In that case, the Azure Heart would belong to Velma.

At that thought, Velma could not help but smile from ear to ear.

Julien raised his brows, replaceing her behavior strange.

However, he did not ask and lowered his head to continue reading the report.

Velma did not stay long either. She took her phone and left.

She wanted to hurry back and try on the Azure Heart in front of a mirror.

The Azure Heart was beautiful, so she must look good if she wore it too.

On the other hand, Sydney drove Davey to Skylight. Sophie looked at Davey and asked in surprise, "President Raines, is this your son?"
