Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 245

Chapter 245

Noblewood Retreat.

It’s Sunday today and Ivan had no classes. He was just chilling on the couch, watching TV. Sitting next to him was Julie, leaning on Kieran. The three of them made a pretty cozy picture, just lounging around and watching TV.

On the screen, Lionel said, “I’ve got a slip of paper here with a fan’s name on it. Let’s reveal who the lucky fan is together.”

Julie, tugging nervously at Kieran’s sleeve, said, “I’ve already told Daphne to lay low. She should be able to dodge this, right?”

Pausing, she asked, “But what if she can’t get away?”

Kieran responded, “Lionel is going after Daphne. If she manages to escape, that would be something.”

Julie sighed, “This is all your fault. You knew I had the speaker on, yet you let Lionel hear Daphne’s location!”

Kieran responded innocently, “I had no idea Daphne was trying to avoid Lionel.”

Left speechless by this, Julie tried to console herself, “It’s okay. Daphne is with her parents. She should be fine.”

On the video, Lionel had already revealed the name he drew. It’s ‘Daphne’.

He even made a joke, “What a coincidence, this fan’s name is the same as the woman who means the most to me.”

Julie turned to Kieran and asked, “What does ‘the woman who means the most’ mean to you guys?”

Kieran responded, “I can’t speak for others, but for me, the most important woman is the woman I love the most. No matter what happens, I want to be there for her right away. I want to be with her for a lifetime.”

Julie nodded and said, “You could write a book, ‘How to Pursue Your Partner’ or maybe just ‘The Secret to Winning Over Your Partner.”
