Chapter 308: Please Show Some Self-Respect

Ivy was beside herself with frustration as Julian, with icy disdain, asked, "What is it?"

"These buns look delicious. May I have one?" Ivy cooed, feigning cuteness with her whiny voice.

Genevieve had said that men were suckers for this act. Aurora, that icy block of wood- how could men truly like her? At best, they were attracted to her looks, but that would wear off over time.

"Want to try?" Julian glanced at her, and Ivy nodded vigorously.

"Yes, if Mr. Barnet doesn't mind, please feed me too."

Seeing Julian's non-refusal, Ivy stuck to him like glue.

"Mind? Of course not," Julian responded. Ivy shot Aurora a triumphant look.

Aurora remained calm. Had it been someone else, she might have felt a twinge of jealousy, but Ivy was hardly worth that sentiment.

"Ah..." Ivy opened her mouth, trying to appear seductive.

Julian picked up a bun and slowly moved it towards her, but instead of feeding it to her, he flicked his wrist, and the bun rolled off, striking Ivy's face before falling to the ground. Aurora was stunned by Ivy's expression, thinking to herself that Julian was being too cruel.

"Mr. Barnet, how could you do this?"

"What did I do? You asked to be fed, and I fed you. It's not my fault you didn't catch it. How is that related to me?"
