Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 88

Julie was totally into Julien’s strong, boyfriend like vibe.

Perhaps because the landlady just witnessed Julien’s strength, she didn’t refute this time.

Then Julie stepped up to Adolf, saying, “I hope we can sort this out privately. But if you’re not down with that, we can go through the legal process.” After saying this, she took Julien’s hand and headed for the door.

When they got to the doorway, Julien deliberately looked back at the landlord and his wife.

Seeing the scared look on the couple’s face, Julie felt a bit smug. Adolf was injured by Kieran, so Julie wasn’t planning to dodge responsibility, but she was disgusted by the landlord’s behavior.

Reaching the doorway, Julie’s mood instantly lightened, and she looked at Julien with a smile, asking, “What do you feel like eating?”

Julien went to the passenger side and opened the car door for Julie.

After Julie got in, Julien turned around and asked her, “Who exactly hurt Adolf?”

On the way here, Julie only mentioned that the landlord was hurt by a racket, but didn’t elaborate.

Julien was smart, so if she asked, it meant she started to have doubts. After a two-second silence, Julie honestly replied, “It was my ex-husband.”

Julien didn’t know Julie’s ex-husband was Kieran. Maybe it was because Julien was always indifferent to things around her, so Julie never mentioned her ex-husband in front of her. Plus, her marriage to Kieran was a secret, so she didn’t publicize it.

So all Julien knew was that Julie had once loved a man she grew up with and divorced him for some reasons.

When she heard Julie mention ex-husband, Julien frowned, “Did you two get back together?”

“No!” Julie answered quickly and firmly, which made Julien give her a few more glances.

She wanted to say something, but seeing Julie’s lowered head, her tone softened, “Don’t make yourself sad.”

“Okay.” Julie nodded. Julien didn’t talk much, but her words always brought comfort.

At Noblewood Retreat, Kieran called Karl

“Did she go to the hospital?’ Kieran asked,

Then Karl replied affirmatively. “She just left the hospital, with a woman in black who looked very tough”

When Julie left Noblewood Retreat, Kieran knew she would definitely go to the hospital. But Adolf wasn’t easy to deal with, Kieran worried that Julie might have some accidents, so he had Karl go to the hospital to protect her right after she left Noblewood Retreat
