Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 103

Some of those clothes were handmade by Bertha herself? And Bertha was sure she and Kieran Hernandez were getting back together? From what angle was she coming from to say that?

Julie stood frozen, finding it hard to imagine. Since her divorce five years ago and her recent run-in with Kieran, things were spiraling out of control, like vines wrapping tighter and tighter. Even the things she was once sure of were starting to go haywire. From the moment Bertha leaped to her death in front of her, everything changed

All of the past tangled up like a ball of yarn, making Julie feel all kinds of messed up.

Daniel clearly didn’t give two hoots about what Julie was thinking now. He locked at Julie excitedly and asked, “So you’re saying Kerry has a son? Is that for real?”

Only then did Julie snap back to reality and looked at Daniel, asking. “Do you think I look like him?”

Im not him, how would I know if he had a son? If you’re so curious, go ask him yourself! Julie shot back quickly.

Watching Julie turn to find Kieran, Daniel finally got why Kieran had married Julie They were birds of a feather.

As Julie picked up her skirt and walked out, Kieran was already dressed and sitting on the couch waiting for her.

“Let’s go.” Kieran casually slipped his phone into his pocket, stood up, and headed for the door.

By the time Julie, in her high heels, caught up, Kieran was already in the car Karl stood by the car door, opening it for Julie and respectfully said, “Please get in the car, Mrs. Hernandez”

Karl had just managed to kick the habit of calling her that, and now he had to pick it up again. Julie didn’t get in the car, but stood by the door asking Kieran, “Where are you planning to take me?”

“Get in, and I’ll tell you” The man’s deep voice came from inside the car

Julie hesitated. She didn’t immediately get in the car, but firmly said, “If you don’t say I wont get in”

“No contract talk then. If you get in, you’ll at least have half an hour to discuss the contract with me”

As a businessman, there was a reason why Kieran was successful. For instance, he always knew exactly how to hit where it hurt. After Daniel’s talk, Julie almost forgot why she came all this way with Kieran.

But with Kierans reminder, she immediately remembered. She had followed Kieran all the way to Daniel’s for the contract. How could she forget her original purpose?

No matter what Kieran’s plan was, he wouldn’t kill her, right? Thinking about this, Julie glanced at Karl and she got in the car
