Julian's Stand in Wife

Chapter 1225

However, she couldn’t use her family's information network to help him while her own love life was in turmoil.

If anything went wrong, it wouldn't just affect her, but also her entire family-the same family that adored her.

"That’ll put you in a difficult situation, right?" Noel rubbed his hands, feeling awkward.

It was really strange. He wasn't cold earlier, but now, he felt like stomping his feet on the ground to keep warm.

"If I made you uncomfortable, I'm sorry. You don't have to worry about it," Noel said, trying to ease the situation.

He was grasping at straws.

He pushed Cecilia inside the gate and said, "You should go inside. It’s cold out here."

He didn't say he couldn't bear to part with her, nor did he request a hug, even though he wanted one.

Cecilia watched his retreating figure, increasingly convinced that this wasn't what dating should feel like.

It was almost less passionate than when they were in the early stages of courtship. Back then, she would have occasional relapses, and Noel would monitor her meals and prepare gloves for her when it got cold. He would even put on a suit and make funny faces to cheer her up if she was feeling down.
