Chapter 88
Chapter 88
Julie was totally into Julien’s strong, boyfriend like vibe.
Perhaps because thendy just witnessed Julien’s strength, she didn’t refute this time.
Then Julie stepped up to Adolf, saying, “I hope we can sort this out privately. But if you’re not down with
that, we can go through the legal process.” After saying this, she took Julien’s hand and headed for the
door.
When they got to the doorway, Julien deliberately looked back at thendlord and his wife.
Seeing the scared look on the couple’s face, Julie felt a bit smug. Adolf was injured by Kieran, so Julie
wasn’t nning to dodge responsibility, but she was disgusted by thendlord’s behavior.
Reaching the doorway, Julie’s mood instantly lightened, and she looked at Julien with a smile, asking,
“What do you feel like eating?”
Julien went to the passenger side and opened the car door for Julie.
After Julie got in, Julien turned around and asked her, “Who exactly hurt Adolf?”
On the way here, Julie only mentioned that thendlord was hurt by a racket, but didn’t borate.
Julien was smart, so if she asked, it meant she started to have doubts. After a two-second silence,
Julie honestly replied, “It was my ex-husband.”
Julien didn’t know Julie’s ex-husband was Kieran. Maybe it was because Julien was always indifferent
to things around her, so Julie never mentioned her ex-husband in front of her. Plus, her marriage to
Kieran was a secret, so she didn’t publicize it.
So all Julien knew was that Julie had once loved a man she grew up with and divorced him for some
reasons.

When she heard Julie mention ex-husband, Julien frowned, “Did you two get back together?”
“No!” Julie answered quickly and firmly, which made Julien give her a few more nces.
She wanted to say something, but seeing Julie’s lowered head, her tone softened, “Don’t make yourself
sad.”
“Okay.” Julie nodded. Julien didn’t talk much, but her words always broughtfort.
At Noblewood Retreat, Kieran called Karl
“Did she go to the hospital?’ Kieran asked,
Then Karl replied affirmatively. “She just left the hospital, with a woman in ck who looked very tough”
When Julie left Noblewood Retreat, Kieran knew she would definitely go to the hospital. But Adolf
wasn’t easy to deal with, Kieran worried that Julie might have some idents, so he had Karl go to the
hospital to protect her right after she left Noblewood Retreat
When Karl arrived at the hospital, he happened to see thendy grabbing Julie’s hair. He was about
to rescue her, but Julien suddenly stepped in to help Julie. Judging from Julie’s actions, she seemed
quite familiar with that woman.

Karl told Kieran everything that had just happened in detail, and sent the picture he secretly took of
Julien to Kieran.
After looking at the picture, Kieran told Karl on the other end of the phone, “Handle everything that
needs to be done, also tell Julie to go to work at thepany tomorrow”
After finishing speaking, Kieran hung up the phone and stared at the picture of Julien that Karl had
secretly taken.
When Hayden walked into Kieran’s study, he saw him staring at his phone in a daze.
“What are you looking at?” Hayden sat down next to Kieran, ready to see what he was looking at.
However, Kieran suddenly put away his phone, then turned his head and said to Hayden, “Do me a
favor.”
“Shoot.” Hayden said
“Check who this woman is.” Kieran handed his phone to Hayden.
Hayden took a look, his pupils contracted. He looked up at Kieran and asked him, “What are you
checking this woman for?”
“She’s seducing my wife.
Je Kieran said high-handedly, with a dangerous tone.
Kieran, raising an eyebrow, “You mean, my woman is seducing your wife?”
Hayden took a look at the picture without any expression, then looked up “Whose woman?” Kieran
suddenly stood up, walked over to the sofa next to Hayden. He looked him up and down, a wicked
smile ying at the corner of his mouth, “You actually like women?”
I like you. Hayden removed Kieran’s hand from his shoulder, then finally turned to him with a somewhat
serious tone, “Her name is Julien, she just returned from visiting her twin sister via at home, I didn’t
have time to introduce you to her.”
Julien?
Indeed, Hayden did mention during his recent home visit that he wanted to introduce Kieran to Julien,
who was quite a big shot, having been a National Security Agency mole nted near Miles. The action
eventually led to Hayden and the National Security Agency joining forces to bring down Miles.
Most importantly, Hayden and Julien grew up together. It was Miles’ words that kept Julien, otherwise,
she would have been killed by Miles at the age of
sqven.
Hayden considered Kieran a close friend, so he thought of introducing Jullen to him…
Looking at the picture on the phone, Jullen seemed to be pleading for Julie.
“How did Julie and Julien meet?” Hayden couldn’t help frowning.
Kieran also looked at the picture with a meaningful expression, how could these two very different
people know each other?
“One living a life on the edge, the other used to be the missy of the Abraham family. In theory, their
worlds should never have collided.” Kieran cast his gaze on Hayden
Hayden, of course, knew exactly what Kieran’s look meant, so he responded, Tll ask around.”
“Where’s the thing you brought for me?” Kieran asked casually, leaning on the couch.
Hayden handed Kieran a file. The documents outlined the daily life of Bertha’s sister, Cami Stewart,
in Switzend recently
Kieran reached for the file, but Hayden stopped him, “Does Julie even know that Bertha has a sister?”
“She’ll find out sooner orter. Why the rush?” Keiran said. Today, when he was on the phone with
Cami, she kept calling him ‘brother-inw’ on the other end. Julie wasn’t a fool, she should catch on.
Upon hearing Kieran’s words, Hayden caught the drift. Kieran intended to let Julie figure it out and ask
him herself.
After a quick nce at the document, Kieran pulled his phone out of Hayden’s hand, then opened
WhatsApp.
Hayden was eyeing Kieran, who waszily lounging on the couch. Kieran nced up, I’m about to chat
up online with my pals. You still hanging around here?”
Hayden silently rose and headed for the door.
Julies message came while he was drunk. She wrote. [Mr. Kennedy, thank you for your hospitality
these past days. Ivan is such a sweet kid. I recently hurt my foot, so it’s been Helga picking up Ivan
from school. I haven’t kept my promise, so I won’t take the sry! Ivan said you’re back in the country
today, which means my job here is done. Thank you.]
Very polite tone, very Julie-style.
After a moment of silence, Kieran sent a message back: [Come back to Gilded Gate Residences
tonight. I have some other work, and I’ll need you to look after Ivan a bit longer.]
Julie just got back to Gilded Gate Residences, nning to pack up and leave. But then Mr. Kennedy
suddenly replied
Since she was struggling to find a ce to stay due to her injured foot, she quickly responded: [Okay,
then]
[How about I pay you at the market rate?] Kieran asked.
[No need, I didn’t pick up Ivan from school as I promised. Your amodation and meals are more
than enough Julie immediately responded.
[Then start picking up Ivan from school tomorrow Kieran replied.
Having no choice, Julie agreed [Okay]
Kierans slender fingers lightly tapped on the dark grey linen sofa, revealing a mischievous smile. Then
his fingers began typing rapidly on the keyboard.
Just as Julie greeted Helga and returned to her room, her phone buzzed
It was a message from Mr. Kennedy: [I’m nning to remodel Gilded Gate Residences You and Ivan
will move to Noblewood Retreat for a while] [Oh, okay] Julie replied. Noblewood Retreat was closer to
Simpo Co., which mademuting easier. Julie was somewhat relieved, not thinking too
much about it.
The next morning, Julie got up early, made breakfast for Ivan and herself. Then she and Helga took
Ivan to school.
Julie reached thepany right on time. In the morning, she had a meeting with the head of Creative
Nexus Media, who clearly wanted to settle things. But Julie knew that since Kieran had hired her as a
lawyer, he wouldn’t let Creative Nexus Media off easily
Her work went smoothly all morning.
At noon, when everyone went to the cafeteria, Julie finally came out of her office with her lunch to the
break room, popping it in the microwave. After a few minutes, as she took out her meal and was about
to return to her office, Karl hurriedly shoved a bag into her hand, “Ms. Abraham, could you help me
deliver this lunch to Mr. Hernandez? | think I ate something bad.”
As he spoke, Karl bolted towards the restroom, leaving a befuddled Julie holding the bag.
Julie looked helplessly at the lunchbox in her hand. She didn’t n to deliver it to Kieran immediately.
Letting him starve a little longer wouldn’t hurt, so she decided to wait for his secretary, Tina, to return.
After all, she
d beent
Oxying to avoid Kieran and wouldn’t actively seek him out.
Just as Julie was thinking this and about to take the bag back to her
the door to Kieran’s office was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
