After the Divorce, CEO Realizes He’s the Stand-In Lover

Chapter 139 Keeping tally on his account

Niki froze.

Julian actually scolded her for Natalie? She couldn’t believe it. “Brother Julian…” Before she could finish her

Julian too much.

“I just can’t believe that Natalie, who didn’t graduate from a prestigious university or study pharmacy, could

“If she were an assistant to some other doctor, it might be slightly more plausible, but we’re talking about Dr.

Julian furrowed his brows.

“So, you’re saying that Natalie pleaded with you to help her get into Glory Group? Wasn’t that the same time when you brought a group of bodyguards to confront Natalie?”

Niki’s eyes widened instantly, and she even stumbled back a little, clearly taken aback.

How could Julian know? Did Natalie complain to him??

“Brother Julian… you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t go to confront her, I just had something to discuss with her,”
