S2| 126. Warning from the Fortune Teller
While the fortune teller smoked the crystal ball, Mia glanced at the man sitting beside her. As soon as their gazes met, she and Julian furrowed brows together. They seemed to be talking telepathically.
After a moment of silence, the man finally grabbed the girl's fingers. While stroking the back of that cold hand, he nodded.
"It's all right," Julian said only with the mouth motion without a sound.
After making the same move, Mia looked back at the black-clothed table in front of her. Candles that were lit in every corner, added to the mystical impression in the room.
"The crystal ball is ready, Miss," the fortune teller whispered, causing Mia to gasp. With eyebrows raised to the max, the girl held her breath. "Now, rub your hands then place them on the right and left sides of this ball."
With a stiff motion, the secretary obeyed the directions. Without asking, she placed her hands flat on the table.
"Not like that, Miss, but like this," the

“Julian, is there something you really want to do with me?” Mia asked when her lover escorted her to the room."Me ...?" the man replied while glancing with a questioning look. “I want to do everything with you, Mia. Every moment in my life is only enjoyable when it's spent with you."Receiving an unexpected answer, the girl snorted a smile. "That's not about it, Julian. I mean, the thing you want to do the most. The thing at the top of all the list.”From under the furrowed brows, Julian watched his footwork. “Right now, what I want the most is seeing you walking towards me in a wedding dress. We will take the real oath, then put a ring on each other's finger. Yes, that's what I want right now."Instead of feeling satisfied, Mia shook her head again. “There must be something other than that. What about after marriage? What do you want the most from me?”"A cute baby," Julian answered without a second thoug

“What is this, Mia?” Julian asked while picking up a piece of paper with the photo of the girl and his nephew. “Is this really a gift for me? Not for Cayden? This looks like a collection of your memories. What exactly are you planning?”Hearing her lover's voice starting to get carried away by emotion, Mia spontaneously gulped. Clenching her fingers, she tried to defend the lie.“It is really a gift for you. Aren't Cayden and I the people you love the most?”“Are you secretly preparing for farewell?” Julian inquired with a pointed look. His teary eyes were starting to be covered with red streaks.Knowing the man's anger, Mia's lips began to tremble. She wanted to deny it, but couldn't tell a further lie. Her tongue was too stiff to break the tension.“Answer honestly, Mia! Why do you give them such a farewell gift?”Before the girl could tell the truth, a heavy sigh escaped from Jul

"Have you seen Julian?" Max asked as he had just returned from his brother's room. After pulling out a chair and sitting down at the dining table, he added a caption. "He's not in his room."Without a word, the servants, who were busy arranging plates and glasses, shook their heads in unison."Julian doesn't usually get up early on the weekends," the woman who was draping an apron around her son's neck, murmured."I don't know .... He really isn't in his room," Max said, shrugging his shoulders briefly.“Perhaps, Mister Julian is asleep in Miss Mia's room. They've been working all night," the youngest servant who was next door to the secretary chimed in.The girl's confession successfully widened everyone's eyes and even, stopped the butler's footsteps. After a faint exhalation, the old woman came to Lena's back and touched her."What did you say? Mister Julian is sleeping in Mia's room?”In an instant, the atmosphere turn

Since that morning, Julian and Mia had been busy making wishes come true. They went on picnics, took Cayden to play with bubbles, and had barbecues with the others. Unfortunately, all of those activities was done in Max's backyard. It's still not safe outside. Julian didn't want to take the risk if they travelled far to fulfill another wish. That fact was secretly frustrating him.“Has No Name been caught?” the CEO asked in a low voice. His eyes were closed, waiting for the expected answer from the speakerphone."Sorry, Sir. We haven't succeeded to track him down. The criminal always disappears without a trace."In a sudden, Julian snorted. While furrowing his brows, the man gritted his teeth.“You said you could arrest No Name within a week. But why until now, he is still free? It's been two weeks! In seven days, I'm getting married. Do you want to be held responsible if that criminal appears there?”“Please be patien

"I'm only two weeks late, Madam. Isn't it too soon to detect pregnancy now?" Mia whispered as the doctor left the table."Of course not. Technology is so sophisticated now. Take it easy," Gabriella said with the same volume of voice.Hearing that answer, Mia's heart suddenly beat faster. When a woman in a white coat returned with a bright smile and a blue folder, the roar of her breath was no longer muffled. Grasping the bag's straps tighter, the girl tried to sit up straight and calm."How's it going, Doc? Is my friend really pregnant?” Gabriella asked with round eyes. She seemed ready to cheer if Cayden would soon get a new friend.Still with the same curved lips, the doctor shifted her gaze to Mia. After a blink, she opened the folder and circled a number with a pen.“This shows the level of the hCG in your blood. Seeing a result this high, it can be confirmed that you are pregnant.”In an instant, the pop in Mia's chest

Julian's eyes quivered at the threatening message. While keeping his face from showing emotion, the man wondered in his mind.“How could No Name know the latest news about Mia? Was the criminal actually near us? Or did the man hire a spy? And why was he only now sending out such a real threat? Is he really planning to attack on the wedding day?”"Answer me, Julian! Is it true?" Herbert asked, shaking his son's arms.Just at that moment, the CEO flinched. His brain was starting to be colonized by confusion. Would Herbert be furious if he found out that his son had broken the rules?While waiting for Julian's answer, Herbert shifted his gaze towards the slightly bowed girl. Still with the same wide eyes, he repeated the question. "Are you really pregnant?"Even though her lips trembled, Mia didn't say a word. She was also confused about choosing an attitude and an answer. All she could do was holding her husband-to-be's arm tighter and bo

"Sorry if before this, I thought you were still bad, Dad," Julian whispered with closed eyes. The furrows of his brows depicted regret perfectly. "I shouldn't have kept the distance from you for the past two years."Hearing such an honest statement, Herbert's heart suddenly warmed. Patting his son's back, he took a deep breath. "Even if you go to the ends of the world, I still feel close to you, Julian. You are the son I love more than my own son. Don't you remember how unfortunate Max was?"Remembering his brother, a small laugh suddenly burst into the air. "Yes, you really loved me too much. But, please don't repeat it. Poor Max. He's already suffered enough.”"Yes, for sure. I've changed, Julian. Now, I am both a fair father and grandfather,” Herbert said before sighing in relief. The burden at the bottom of his heart no longer existed. The old man could already imagine a brighter future with his sons and grandchildren.“So, cheer up,

"Sorry, Sir. But …, it doesn't sound like a way to pay a debt, but rather a way to increase it,” Mia said, slowly and very carefully."Not really. By doing so, you help us to feel relieved. Max and Gabriella often feel guilty every time they see John and Minnie still think of them as king and queen. Can you put yourself in their shoes? They feel disrespectful towards Julian's future in-laws."Hearing the explanation, Mia's tension faded a little. She had seen Gabriella and Minnie several times fighting over a spatula or a teapot.“Serving the Evans family is not a burden, Sir, but an honor. I'm sure my parents will mind to quit their jobs,” the girl said with a sincere nod."That's your responsibility. Look for ways to change their minds and also yours. Can you stop calling me sir? I am your future father-in-law. Call me as Gabriella calls me."In an instant, the curve of Mia's lips turned flat. Her heart was beating so fas
