Chapter 54

Julian was supposed to pick Rosie up today, but he messaged me an hour ago, telling me that he was so sick and didn't want Rosie to be around him, fearing that the might get sick ino. The moment 1 learned that he wasn't okay, I found myself strolling to the kitchen to m Maya and Sam's wedding was ten days ago and since that day, I had barely talked to Julian. I wanted to keep my distance for my own sake. My mind wasn't clear and I needed some space to think.

1 knew how Julian was thinking. He thought that he would have a chance to make me fall for him again after breaking up with Matl

Speaking of Matt, he had tried to get in contact with me, but I managed to keep him away. I wasn't sure if I was being too harsh on him or if pushing him away was the right thing to do, but I was content and comfortable like that. Matt crossed a red line. He made Rosie feel Half an hour later, the meal was ready. I didn't know if it was smart of me to go see him instead of sending the food with my driver, but I wanted to check on him. What if he was in a bad state and needed to be seen by a doctor? Rose told me before that she tried to get hi he was living on his own, but he refused, saying that he liked to have his own space.

I rang the intercom and hoped that he would answer. After ringing again, Julian Enally answered

Was he that sick?

"This is Amelia," I nervously said. Why was I nervous? I was just bringing him food!

Fortunately, Julian didn't ask any question and opened the gate almost immediately. I walked through the front gate and waves of nostalgia hit me. I had many bad memories here, but I couldn't erase the good ones from my mind.

When my eyes landed on a specific car, I couldn't help but linger there for a moment. It was his gift for me on our one-

year anniversary. I remembered when he took me on a date on that day. It was going to be engraved in my heart forever no matter what. He made me feel like I was the only woman his eyes could ever see.

I pushed myself towards the front door and when I got closer, my eyes widened. He was incredibly sick. His eyes and nose were red, and his hair was very messy. He seemed to be completely drained of energy. I wasn't even sure how he was standing, "Holy shit, Julian!" I mumbled, strolling towards him. I placed my hand on his forehead and realized how feverish he was
