Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 57

Sacrifice? Julie fell that she had nothing left to lose.

She reached out and gently moved away Kieran’s hand that was pinching her chin, her voice steady as she asked, “What value do you think I have, Mr. Hernandez”

After asking this question, Julie thought of many possible replies from Kieran, but she didn’t expect him to remain silent, plunging the car into an eerie quiet. Given the silence in the car and her understanding of Kieran, if she didn’t initiate a conversation, the rest of the journey would likely be spent in this

eerie quietness.

So, Julie finally took the initiative to say to Kieran, “If you never intended to give Accolade Law Firm a chance. I think you should have told me straight up even if it’s just out of courtesy.”

Naturally, the driver didn’t listen to Julie’s command. The car continued to move slowly in the traffic, and Kieran’s laughter came from the side, Porter hired you to win me over as a client. But it seems that Porter’s plan has failed. For Accolade Law Firm, you’re not even willing to sacrifice a kiss Joyce, to get something, you have to pay a price.”

“There are two kinds of people in this world who are not worth paying a price for One is the ungrateful people, and the other is perverts Congratulations, Mr. Hernandez, you fit both categories”

“Ha “up front, Karl and the driver Austin couldn’t help but laugh at this comment.

However, the car came to a smooth stop Unknowingly, they had arrived at Julies house

Julie got out of the car, and Kieran followed closely behind. Kieran followed Julie all the way up to her apartment, and only when they reached the door did Julie turn around and say to Kieran, “Sorry. Mr. Hernandez but I dont entertain strange men here”

“Not too bad, we’re not complete strangers, at least you know my surname Kieran replied with a smile
