“What’s going on? Haven't I told you everything over the phone?”Julian really did not want to talk about the matter between him and Nora anymore. After talking to Silvia, he had no desire to tell or explain anything to anyone else, not even to his own mother.He was already frustrated and upset enough.Mrs. Maton’s eyes turned red in anger as she asked, “When did you get together with Nora? Why did you break up with her? Aren’t you going to give us an explanation?”Julian continued smoking in silence.Mrs. Maton could not tolerate it anymore and swung her handbag at him. Julian frowned slightly when the hard edges of her handbag hit him, but he still did not say a word. Mr. Maton, who came with Mrs. Maton, was not as impulsive as she was. He observed everything in silence for a while before he said coldly, “Are you abusing yourself like this?”Julian did not react to Mrs. Maton’s impulsive yelling, but he froze when he heard Mr. Maton’s simple words. It was not because of anyt
He was completely confused after he called her again to no avail. He drove directly to Ophelia’s place, wanting to see her in person.He had never come to look for her personally before this as he wanted to give her some time to calm down, especially after he had sent such messages to make up with her. He hoped that she would reconsider rekindling their relationship after reading his text messages.When he arrived at Ophelia’s place, he found that the door of Ophelia’s apartment was open, and there were movers coming in and out of it. Julian thought that he had arrived at the wrong unit or the wrong floor. After checking again, he found that he was not mistaken. He stopped one of the workers and asked, “Where is the person who originally lived in this house?”The worker answered him truthfully, “Are you talking about Madam Ophelia? She said that she was going to move back to the old mansion, so she called us over to help her move. I also heard Madam Ophelia mention that her apartm
Benjamin could not understand why Julian and Nora broke up. Weren’t they in a loving relationship before this? Julian even followed Nora to Winsterdam, right?Benjamin even had a private conversation with Nathan about Julian and Nora’s relationship. Both of them had been very optimistic about their relationship. Even Nathan, who had never liked to show much emotion, complimented Nora and said that she was an outstanding girl. She made people feel comfortable, and no one would feel worn out when they were with her. She was the best partner for someone like their boss, who would often overthink. Perhaps it was because Nora did not lack anything that she was not the kind of girl who was particularly troublesome, both mentally and materially. The two brothers even thought about being the best men at Julian’s wedding. The wedding would definitely be a sensation with a pair of handsome and outstanding twins like them as Julian’s best men. But it seemed as if Nathan was probably the on
“Nathan will not accompany you to abuse himself if that's what you're doing!” She snorted and added, “It’s not just Nathan; my brother-in-law will not accompany you either!”She held Nathan’s arm and said to Benjamin, “Benjamin, let’s go. Let him torture himself if he wants to!”After saying that, she dragged Nathan out with her, while Benjamin simply stood still in place with an awkward smile on his face. He did not dare to leave even if he really wanted to if his boss did not give the command.On the other hand, Yvonne dragged Nathan a few steps toward the door, which gave Nathan a headache. If Yvonne was only testing him when she asked her to choose between her and Julian last time, he really had to choose her now that she was dragging him away. He would have to choose between leaving with her or staying to work overtime with Julian.However, Nathan was not so angry this time because he knew that Yvonne was dragging him away because she was worried about his health and did not
“You’ve been saying that you can’t spend another day with me ever since you were young, but aren't you still here? Half of your life has already passed, so you only have to continue living with me for the other half of your life.”Mrs. Maton fell into his embrace and cried when she heard his words. She had always looked down on him and despised him when she was young. She thought that he was just a dull old man who was obsessed with studying and would only hide behind her and analyze things all day long. He would not say a word when he attended any occasions, and she always ended up having to do all the socializing.Later, after being married for such a long time, she felt that he had his own strengths and warmth. Most importantly, he was sincere toward her. But how did they end up having a son who was such a playboy? They had discussed this issue before, and he said that Julian was just like her. She got angry and refuted his words, saying that she had never been flamboyant. H
After experiencing the sudden change in Julian and Nora's relationship, Ryan felt he cherished his relationship with Silvia even more. They had experienced separation before they finally got back together as well. When he saw Julian and Nora now, he felt as if he had returned to the time when they had just gotten divorced. Julian was going through the same suffering now. Of course, the premise was that Julian was really suffering. So, when Julian called Silvia’s cell phone, Silvia’s first reaction was to ask Ryan’s opinion on whether she should answer his call. Ryan nodded, gesturing for her to go ahead. Julian got straight to the point. “Tell me Rowan Pierce’s company address in the United States.”Silvia was stunned for a moment. She did not expect that Julian would think of finding out the whereabouts of Rowan and Nora from her. Silvia was not sure whether to tell him, so she had to whisper to let Ryan know of Julian’s intention. After hearing this, Ryan frowned and took th
Jason had never seen Julian so mad at him in his entire life. Julian had always been indulgent to him most of the time.In Jason’s impression, Julian was a really competent elder brother. Julian had taken care of him since he was young, and he had always supported him when he insisted on studying academics. Although Julian had always said that it was pointless to study to become an academician and had always asked him to come back to help him manage the company, Julian had never forced him.As Julian had said, he was the one shouldering the responsibility and burden of managing Maton Group in order to give their family a comfortable and prosperous life. Jason could only pursue the life he wanted freely as the second son because Julian took good care of him as the eldest.There was no need for him to go out for various social meetings to build complicated interpersonal relationships and deal with various busy business affairs, and there was no need for him to deliberately please anyo
When Julian heard that name, he suddenly could not catch his breath and hurriedly said, “Is she with you? Let me say a few words to her!”Rowan was in an extremely good mood as he said, “We just landed in the United States, and we are still at the airport. She just came out of the washroom, and she’s walking toward me now.”Rowan then hung up the phone without warning. One second, Julian was still immersed in the fact that he was only one phone call away from Nora, but in the next second, he suddenly came to his senses when Rowan ended the call. He was now separated from Nora by a great distance!This was a really excruciating feeling. It seemed as if he was so close to her but could not reach her at all.Julian was almost depressed because of Rowan’s perverted methods. An announcement was made in the cabin that the plane was about to take off, and all the passengers were asked to turn off their cell phones. Julian could only put his cell phone away, close his eyes, and lean back
