Julia instantly stopped in her tracks and looked at Carter.Jared’s eyebrows furrowed as he stopped. A hint of anxiety briefly crossed his usually composed expression. His gaze zeroed in on Julia, studying her expression seriously.Julia’s face remained blank, unwilling to reveal any of her emotions, making Jared feel more conflicted. He didn’t even notice that he was tightening his grip on her waist.After a moment of silence, Julia spoke. “Wow. Never have I thought those words would come out of your mouth.”Carter looked away. “It was a misunderstanding on my part earlier. Honestly, it almost…” He glanced at Jared and added, “I won’t fall for you again. I’ve made up my mind. Now, I’m sure. I want to spend my life with Vivien.”Vivien gasped. Just by his words, her anger slowly subsided.“Is that so?” Julia replied as she raised a brow. “Then, why are you telling me that? Are you showing off or something?”“I know you’re mad at me, Julia. Let’s just think that fate made all of this h

'Her? How could she be so pretty?!'Driven by envy, Vivien bit her lower lip. It wasn't the first time she saw Julia in a wedding dress. But the first time was not as impressive compared to what she was wearing now.Vivien remembered that Julia was wearing a plain gown with simple make-up and hairstyle last time. But today was different; not only was she wearing an elegant dress, but Julia also had exquisite make-up that perfectly matched her complexion and features.Nobody would be able to miss how Julia had improved. She looked better, from her skin condition to her charming face, as if glowing before them. It was quite different from before, and now she appeared undeniably attractive.Vivien looked at Carter, who was still staring at Julia in awe. "Carter, you–" Vivien's words were interrupted when Carter suddenly walked toward Julia as if compelled to do so.He stood beside Julia and glanced over his and Julia's reflection in the mirror. Carter suddenly imagined a few moments with

For an instant, Julia was astounded. Her eyes brightened, and seeing Jared in a pink suit made her feel weird. Although he had a cold demeanor, it suited him well and wasn't out of place. It somewhat made him younger."Weird enough?" Jared asked with furrowed brows."C'mon, don't frown. You look good and youthful in that suit." Julia thought there was a lack of it. "You should smile, and that makes you more handsome." Julia's words weren't like before. There was no more bragging about it.In Julia's mind, Jared dressed dazzlingly. She didn't mean Jared wasn't good-looking enough in his usual black, white, and gray suit. His visuals and vibe now brought a style that caught everyone's attention around his circle.Julia felt he became more captivating and fresh, making its freshness drip in the water. She expressed her appreciation for how handsome she was left and right, even said she was blown by the wind, making her heart race, and couldn't help but smile.With that, Jared laughed his

"What in the world is this?" Julia exclaimed, her voice echoing in the room.With a bewildered look, she pulled an identical wedding photo of a passionate kiss from under the bed, dusting it off with her fingertips.As she compared the wedding photos in her left and right hands, realization dawned on Julia. She couldn't help but purse her lips, rendered speechless by the discovery. She hadn't known about the hidden wedding photo under the bed but, surprisingly, had found a spare one.Stunned beyond belief, she thought, feeling a mix of amusement and shock.With a clever smile, Julia hid the wedding photo in the wardrobe and turned the key in the lock.'Let's see how you hang it now!' she thought, triumphantly challenging the unknown prankster.Just then, Shiloh's voice, laden with disbelief and surprise, filtered through the closed door. "What happened? Julia?"'Hmm? What's going on now?' Julia wondered curiosity piqued.Opening the door with a confused expression, she was met with Sh

Even on the other side of the line, Julia blushed when he called her by that name."Why did you suddenly call me by my name?" Julia raised her thin lips, and her voice showed a trace of tenderness."I like calling your name,” Jared simply answered.Julia heard something inside her thumping. So she slowly raised her hand to cover her heart. Feeling every beating it did. The throbbing made her very addicted and uncomfortable.Before Julia could recover from this state, the man's intoxicating voice, which sounded like a cello, echoed in her ears again."How about you? Can you call me Jared?" he asked.Julia bit her lip, and her mind went blank for a moment. The only thing she could say was, "Oh, I forgot! I have something to do. I'll hang up now. Bye!"Julia hastily hung up the phone. Her breathing was short and disordered. Her chest heaved and fluctuated. When she touched her face, it felt hot. She kept cooling her face with the back of her hand.Jared…“It sounded disgusting,” she comm
