Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 89

Chapter 89

“Where are you planning to take my lunch? Kieran asked, leaning against the door as Julie walked by.

Caught off guard, Julie couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty with the bag in her hands. She turned around to see Kieran standing at the office door, leaning against the black frame. His white shirt sleeves were rolled up to his wrists, revealing his diamond-shaped, dark green French cufflinks and matching tie. Julie knew these cufflinks and the tie all too well. They were the birthday gifts she gave Kieran when she was twenty. She once read a line in a book. “A man’s cufflinks are like a refined woman’s earrings”

So, Julie scraped together a semester’s worth of part-time earnings and finally bought those diamond cufflinks. It was the first decent money she’d ever made at the age of twenty.

As for the tie, she simply wanted to see the sexy way Kieran would tie it.

With this expectation, she gave him these two gifts for his birthday. She finally saw Kieran’s tie-tying action when she was twenty, but the price she paid to witness it was huge.

Not wanting to dwell on it, Julie picked up Kieran’s lunch and headed for his office, planning to hand it over to him directly. But as soon as she reached the door, Kieran turned and walked back into his office.

Julie had no choice but to walk in with the bag.

“Close the door behind you” he said.

Julie didn’t respond. She put the bag on Kieran’s desk and clutching her own lunch box, prepared to leave.

Kieran was already seated, scrolling through emails on his computer. Take out my lunch, will you?” he asked offhandedly

It wasn’t an unreasonable request, so Julie put her lunch box aside and helped Kieran unpack his lunch.

Kierans lunch was quite the spread, with servings of both meat and vegetables.

“That’s my lunch box” Julie felt wronged as she watched Kieran, who was savoring her lunch box

Only then did Kieran shift his gaze from the computer, glanced at the lunch box in his hand, then at Julie, and finally said with a hint of annoyance, “No wonder it doesnt taste very good.”

Was this what they called taking advantage of someone and still complaining?

Julie was livid She glared at Kieran’s lunch box.

“Well, I’ve already eaten it. Do you want me to spit it back out?” Kieran said, digging his spoon back into Julie’s lunch box.
