Conrad was frozen like a statue. He couldn't believe his eyes and thought he was hallucinating, but the man in front of him didn't disappear. "Hello, I'm Oliver Kolson." Oliver whipped out his business card and handed it to Conrad. Hearing his words, Conrad gasped. 'He was indeed Oliver Kolson, a renowned assistant from Cresco Enterprise!' At that moment, Conrad was on cloud nine. He hurriedly accepted Oliver's business card as though he was afraid he would take it back. Smiling from ear to ear, he greeted, "Good to see you here. I'm Conrad."He extended his hand and shook hands with Oliver. He then glanced at Julia and mouthed, "Is it him?"Amused, Julia nodded and smiled at him. Taking a deep breath, Conrad faced Oliver and briefed him about his job, and subsequently sent him off. When Oliver left, Conrad turned to Julia and asked in disbelief, "How did you poach him? He's the number one gold medal assistant of Cresco Enterprise!""Have you forgotten my identity, Brother?" Jul
When he heard the familiar voice, Carter stopped putting on the ring and turned to look behind him.Beside him, Vivien also looked toward the door. Her eyes went wide as she recognized the woman standing before her."W-what..." she stuttered.Julia Watson.She really came.Meanwhile, Carter's eyes widened in surprise, his mind racing with mixed emotions. He had never expected Julia to show up.Why was she there? What did she want?Carter couldn't wrap his mind around the thought as he tried to calm the nerves surging in his skin. After all, most of their guests attended his wedding a month ago and had seen Julia. They knew that she was Carter's former fiancée."It's getting interesting now!" someone said from the crowd.Carter's heart pounded in his chest as he watched Julia approach him. The whispers and murmurs from the crowd grew louder, intensifying the tension in the air.On the other hand, Julia walked carefully toward Carter and Vivien.She wore a confident smile, and her eyes
When the crowd saw the video, they realized they had all misunderstood Julia. They realized Julia's intentions completely differed from what they had initially assumed. It became clear that their judgments had blinded them to such lies.Julia wasn't the villain. It was Vivien."My goodness! What a surprise!" a guest remarked.The woman beside her replied, "I know! I was there last time too, and I felt bad for cursing and being awful to Julia. Later, I have to apologize to her.""I don't think it's your fault. I was there too, and Vivien also deceived me!"After overhearing the conversations of the guests, Vivien felt anxious and angry."Vivien, is this true?" Lilian asked as her eyes darted down at her flat belly. She never really warmed up to Julia but never disliked her. Vivien's child was the primary motivation for her animosity toward Julia.If Julia hadn't been so mean to Vivien, pushing her down and causing her miscarriage, Lilian would be holding her grandson soon.Faced with L
"Julia, I've come to pick you up."Julia halted upon hearing it and slowly fixed her gaze on the man who unexpectedly appeared at the hotel entrance.‘Jared? Why does he come here?' She thought, her forehead wrinkled.“That’s him!” Carter realized Jared at first glance—the man who showed himself up at the Scott family's banquet and the same man Julia offered her kiss.Meanwhile, the guests gossiped about Jared’s sudden arrival, and they couldn't help but speculate about his relationship with Julia.On the other hand, Vivien fixed her eyes on Jared's alluring presence and pondered if he was Julia's boyfriend.“Why did you come here?” Julia questioned, wondering about his presence inside.‘He clearly stated thirty minutes. It’s still not time, yet he’s here. What is he thinking?'Before Jared retorted, he leaned close to Julia's ear while his thin lips almost kissed her skin, making everyone who witnessed quite feel intimidated."To help you." Only two words he whispered in Julia's ear
Before Carter's hand touched Julia's lovely skin, his arms were unexpectedly grabbed by someone at the side.As he brought his eyes to the side along the hand clasping his arm all the way, he met Jared's sharp gaze peeled on him.With Jared's face appearing cold and his inherent dignity, everyone who witnessed him would subconsciously want to surrender.Carter's heart raced, hearing it thud. All he thought, with his sharp gaze at Jared, would make Jared shrink back, but he didn't foresee he was the first to step back and lose.Didn't Julia find Jared as someone who could play to stimulate her? How could someone who only sold his body and soul for money have a fierce and cold aura that would make someone scared stiff?Especially the nobility he had, as if it was natural for him, because he had grown up in the upper circles for a long time.Still, Carter thought he might be overthinking as it was too good to be true. Carter was aware of and knew all of the celebrities in the upper circl
With her squinted dark eyes, she graced her way down the stairs."Come on," Julia uttered, offering her hand when she came to Shiloh's side. "Hold my hand. I'll help you stand up again."When Julia said those things, she saw Jared walking in her direction."I'm here."Upon hearing his brother's voice and seeing his darkened face, he instinctively thought that his brother was jealous of the interaction between the woman and him.But of course, that was no time to think about such things. Julia just said that he could stand up, and he was nervous about it.Deep inside, he was hoping that a miracle would happen, but at the same time, he was scared of disappointment.When Julia saw the anxiety on Shiloh's face, she tried to comfort him, "Don't worry, I'm confident with my medical skills. Just trust me, okay? Try without fearing.""What do you mean I'm scared? I'm not! It must be you!" After shouting with a sign of stiffness, he grabbed Jared's arms and braced them.'It hurts! My leg hurts
Julia was stuck where she was standing and speechless at what she had just heard. At that moment, all she could do was stare blankly at Jared, trying to see a hint of a joke in his expression, but apart from seriousness, there was no other emotion at all.That made Julia so stunned that she didn't know how to react.Shiloh, on the side, also looked at Jared in surprise. Not one of them, even him, expected Jared to confess his love that way.It took a full minute before Julia slowly recovered from her surprise and opened her mouth to ask, "Are you serious?""I never joke." Jared seemed so calm from the outside, but deep inside, he was nervous and overwhelmed by emotions. After all, almost all his life, that was the first time he confessed his love to someone.The woman's face was complex, almost indescribable, as she opened her mouth slightly. "Why?" She managed to ask.They got together because of an agreement. How did that happen? It baffled her."Like is like, do you need to ask why
The loud screech of the van was heard as the two fell to the ground while the wheelchair was pushed back.Shiloh grunted because of the impact and felt dizzy as he got up from the ground, feeling the pain."Are you alright?"Hearing Julia's voice, Shiloh suddenly raised his head and looked at the pale woman. It showed in his eyes how mixed up his emotions were.However, his attention was put on something else when he smelled blood! And when he glanced down at Julia, he saw her injured arm. His pupils dilated in worry, and he shook in terror.She was injured!She was injured trying to save him!Why did she risk her life to save him? When they both know it might harm hers.When Shiloh's thoughts were in disarray, five or six people got off the van. The masked men got their faces covered and surrounded them aggressively.Upon realizing the peril of their situation, Julai and Shiloh learned that it was no mere car incident, and they did it deliberately with a motive!At that moment, Shilo
