Emelia didn't expect Julian to make a big deal out of this. She took a step back to distance herself from him and explained, "I would have left if you didn't come."

She would have stayed with Vincent and Naomi on Christmas day until Nina called her.

Nina had returned to her apartment and caught some sleep after cleaning up, so Emelia should leave.

Julian's expression softened after listening to this, but he still stood in Emelia's way and asked, "Aren't you curious about the woman?"

"Should I?" Emelia asked again, "How long are you going to stay?"

Julian shrugged. "I don't know. It depends on her."

He clearly needed to stay here for a long time.

Emelia glared at him. "Are you going to hide whenever a woman pesters you?"

Was this really a solution?

"Let's talk about this after she leaves." That woman had driven him mad.

The woman was called Suzanne McBride, the granddaughter of the old factory director in Grafstin. She came all the way from the south to the Capital for Julian on Christmas. Before Julian figured out how Suzanne McBride had gotten his address, she had already arrived at gate to his apartment building.

Julian wouldn't let her it until then he realized it was a good chance to stay with Emelia. Before he came upstairs, Julian unlocked the security gate.

No one would answer the door no matter how many times Suzanne knocked, and the neighbors might kick her out for creating absurd noises.

Maybe Suzanne may lose her interest in this way.

Julian would have teased her till she gave up if her grandfather wasn't a factory director.

Emelia didn't want to stay with Julian in the same room. After a moment, she said, "Well, I should go. Lock the door when you leave."
