Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 95

After spending so many days together, an indescribable bond had formed between Julie and Ivan Julie’s heart just melted when Ivan hugged her so innocently. She squatted down, patted him on the head, and said. “You’re so adorable, how could anyone not want you?”

Julie clearly saw Ivan run out from Kieran’s villa, so she held his hand, “Your dad said Gilded Gate Residences is under renovation, so he asked me to bring you to Noblewood Retreat for a while. Can you show me the way?”

But Ivan looked toward Kieran as if waiting for him to speak.

Kieran just looked at Julie, “Why don’t you stay here with Ivan for a while?”

After hearing this, Ivan nodded frantically, “Yeah, yeah! Dad said we should stay here!”

Wasn’t that what his dad just said? He wasn’t lying.

Julie held his hand tight, looking at Kieran, and asked, “Why does his dad want us to stay here?”

Kieran glanced at the sky and said, ‘It’s about to rain. You can either stand here in the rain while Ivan struggles to explain, or you can come in and I’ll tell you.”

Julie looked up at the sky. She didn’t trust Kieran completely so she hesitated.

But when a flash of lightning suddenly lit up the sky, Julie pulled Ivan and ran towards Kieran’s villa.

She had always been fearless, but she was scared of thunder. Whenever she saw lightning flash across the sky, she felt like it was going to hit her any second, which always scared her.

Kieran calmly watched Julie take Ivan into the room, then smiled slightly and followed them in.

Julie led Ivan through the door. They stood awkwardly on the doormat, like kids who’d done something wrong, waiting for Kieran to speak.

Kieran said, “I don’t like talking at the door” Then, he turned and walked over to a dark grey linen sofa.

“Mama Julie, Kerry’s a nice guy. He won’t hurt us. Shall we shall we go sit?” Ivan tugged at Julie’s sleeve, trying to mitigate the awkward atmosphere.

Julie had no choice but to follow him.

After Ivan had Julie seated on the sofa, he winked at Kieran Whether Mama Julie could stay tonight all depended on Kieran’s performance
