Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 92

Julie didn’t expect Karl to join her in the break room. While making coffee, she casually asked, “Karl, do you want a cup of coffee?”

“No need, no need.” Karl frantically waved his hands. After all, this cup of coffee was worth a hundred bucks, way too extravagant for him.

Julie nodded, immediately noticing Karl’s uncomfortable look. She then asked him, “Karl, is something bothering you?”

Birds of a feather flocked together Kieran was a shrewd and cunning man, and his wife was equally sharp, seeing right through him.

Karl nodded awkwardly and said to Julie, “I’m not feeling well today I was planning to go to the hospital after work, but Mr. Hernandez has a last minute

dinner to attend”

Julie quietly listened to Karl’s lament. She was actually quite grateful to Karl, who had been very kind to her in the past. Even though she couldn’t help him now, she was still willing to lend an ear to his complaints

Seeing that Julie didn’t dismiss him, Karl continued, “Attorney Abraham, you know Mr. Hernandez’s temper. If I just find some random woman to accompany him, he won’t let me off the hook”

Julie had a hunch that Karl was about to ask her to accompany Kieran. Sure enough, Karl pretended to have a sudden realization and turned his gaze to her. ‘Attorney Abraham, so…

“Karl, I have to go home and look after the kid tonight,” Julle responded with a smile.

Karl’s half-spoken words got stuck in his throat. Of course, he knew that the kid Julie had to look after was Kieran’s son.

Julie took the coffee she had made and walked away. Karl thought she was going to take it to the office, but instead, she walked over to Tina and handed it to her. “Can you do me a favor? This is Mr. Hernandez’s coffee.”

Tina was a colleague of Karl’s, so it was perfectly normal for her to help deliver the coffee.

Julie wasn’t worried about Tina overthinking the situation. After all, she had no control over what others thought.

Although Tina was a bit confused, she took the coffee and went to Kieran’s office.

Karl, clutching his stomach, spoke to Julie, “Attorney Abraham, I just need someone to join him for dinner. Is it really impossible? I’ve already made an appointment with the doctor”
