Chapter 148


    Chapter 148


    Julie looked at Kieran and said, “Honestly, Kieran, you’re the first guy I’ve met who can spout such


    elegant bullcrap! You let me chase after you because you liked me, but you didn’t ept me. So you


    actually enjoy the process of me pursuing you, right?”


    “I was waiting for you to grow up,” he calmly said, waiting for Julie’s response.


    “What do you mean?”


    “I was waiting for you to grow up because I don’t want you to rush into love. I hope you can get into a


    good university and achieve your dreams, instead of making me your life goal. I don’t want you to look


    back on the past and only remember that you didn’t achieve anything. You should know you’re


    excellent in your own right, and I like you for who you are, not because you like me.”


    Julie looked at Kieran speechlessly for a few seconds before helplessly responding, “So should I be


    touched? Should I be moved to tears, thank you, and then repay you?”


    “Not rush into anything with you is because I have self–control,” he replied.


    Julie covered Kieran’s mouth with her hand, “So when you were punished by the coach to apany


    me runningps, was it also because you had self–control?”


    Logically speaking, Kieran was such an excellent student, the coach should have liked him a lot. Why


    would he make him runps? When this was mentioned, Kieran’s expression finally showed a hint of


    difort. After hesitating for a moment, he said to Julie, “I said something I shouldn’t have said.”


    “What did you say?” Julie’s tone was obviously curious.


    What Julie didn’t know was that Kieran didn’t intend to runps with her that day. But after the coach


    punished Julie to run, he turned back, one hand on his waist, pointing at Julie to the other students and


    said, “Look at her, never proactive, she’s always looking for excuses when there’s a bit of difficulty.


    When she goes out into society, even a dumb donkey will be better than her!”


    At that time, Kieran didn’t want to interact with the coach, let alone argue with him. But when the coach


    pointed at Julie and said she was worse than a dumb donkey, he unexpectedly said, “How do you think


    you’re better than a donkey?”


    The ss instantly gasped, then burst intoughter.


    Even if Kieran was excellent and the teacher liked him, he wouldn’t tolerate such an insult. So…


    Kieran was punished to runps with Julie.


    In the end, Kieran decided to tell Julie about this.


    Julie wanted to keep her serious face, but she couldn’t help it, theughter in her eyes couldn’t be


    hidden.


    She could already imagine Kieran’s serious expression when arguing with the teacher.


    Afterughing enough, Julie looked at Kieran and said seriously, “Don’t me everything on me, you’re


    the one who said the wrong thing and got punished, it has nothing to do with me!”


    She patted him on the shoulder, and then started to talk business with Kieran, “First of all, please stand


    up, we need to discuss our remarriage. I promise, I won’t divorce.”


    While Kieran was still in shock, Julie used all her strength to push Kieran off her, then quickly ran to the


    door, grabbed the doorknob, and said to Kieran, “Please don’te closer, just stay where you are! If


    you take one more step, I’ll open this door! I’ll say what I need to say as soon as possible, whether or


    not I get custody of Ivan, I won’t leave him.”


    “Okay.”


    Kieran really stood still, not approaching Julie.


    Julie said, “About the marriage certificate, if you want, you can keep it, I don’t need it anymore. After all,


    we can directly apply for divorce to the court a few years after separation. If you agree, we can go


    through the legal process.”


    Kieran stood by the sofa, not responding to Julie.


    There was a distance of five or six meters between them.


    Julie looked at Kieran seriously, “Being as smart as you, you should know thew that allows for


    divorce after a period of separation, right?”


    Kieran sat on the sofa looking at Julie, not intending to approach her.


    Julie rxed a bit, but her hand was still on the doorknob, she said to Kieran warily, “Please tell me


    straight, why do you want to remarry me, why choose to remarry me at this time?”


    Kieran was too clever, so Julie had to view him from a smarter perspective.


    She didn’t think about whether he really liked her or not, but she knew that even if Kieran wanted to


    remarry her, he wouldn’t propose it at this time. He could first let her build a rtionship with Ivan and


    then gradually bring up this issue.

    Chapter 148


    Considering her current mood, Kieran tricked her into remarrying, she was already being very nice, not


    angry with him.


    Kieran must understand this, but he still chose to deceive her at this time, Julie believed, he must have


    his reasons.


    Kieran looked at Julie, his eyes filled with a warm smile.


    Julie was sometimes very cute, sometimes very smart, irresistibly lovable.


    He took out his phone, opened thetest trending news, and then got up to walk towards Julie.


    “Don’te over!” Julie put out her hand to stop him.


    “I promise I won’t touch you, just look at this.” Kieran walked towards Julie while handing her his phone.


    By the time Julie was still hesitating, Kieran had already walked up to her.


    The phone screen showed the top ten trending topics, five or six of which were rted to Kieran,


    mainly about his illegitimate child, his ex–wife, and a woman used of using a child to climb up the


    socialdder.


    Without thinking, Julie knew that the used woman was her.


    What Julie didn’t expect was that the title of the top trending topic was “Jokier“.


    Wasn’t that her ount ID?


    Julie immediately looked at the phone screen in surprise and clicked in.


    Her ount was built many years ago, but only a few life–rted tweets were posted, four in total.


    One was when she first started using Twitter, cheerfully saying: I want to be a scheming woman,


    chasing a rich and handsome guy.


    Of course, that rich and handsome guy was Kieran.


    For her second tweet, a month after she started using Twitter, she joyfully posted a picture of her


    admission letter to Pinnacle University, then added a sad face emoji and tweeted, “I got into Pinnacle


    University for Mr. Rich and Handsome, but he dodged me and went to Futuro Business College. Why


    would he rather go to a business school than be with me? I’m so tired.”


    The third tweet had a sneaky shot of Kieran’s back and the caption read, “Chasing Mr. Rich and


    Handsome is hard. A friend told me to act decisively at the right time. I pondered and concluded that


    persistence is key.”


    The fourth tweet, herst update, read, “Heard that persistence is futile. To get the man of your dreams,


    you need his chromosomes! Don’t stop me, I’m going for it!”


    There were only four tweets in total, and thements were scarce, mostly from familiar people.


    Beneath thest tweet, Daphne hadmented, “May you sessfully use the Y chromosome in your


    body to corner Mr. Hernandez and reach the peak of life.”


    Thisst tweet was posted several weeks before Julie and Kieran first hooked up.


    Afterwards, Julie never tweeted again, but she didn’t delete these messages either. She got used to


    pursuing Kieran, so deleting them or not didn’t matter much. She was in the habit of checking Twitter,


    following thetest news, so she kept her ount active.


    But Julie never dreamed that her rarely used ount, with only five followers, would go viral overnight.


    Originally, she had five followers. One was Bertha Stewart, one was Daphne, and the other three were


    strangers.


    But then, overnight, her follower count shot up to over a million, and those few tweets were flooded with


    comments.


    In the detective–li


    Many used her of “climbing the socialdder through the kid,” said Kieran was “blinded,” and some


    even went to Daphne’s page to use her and Julie of working together, which seemed to affect


    Daphne’spany more or less.


    Julie never thought it would escte to this level.


    She didn’t really care, but when she heard people on the inte calling her child illegitimate and


    ming Daphne, even the normally patient Julie got pissed.


    She quickly drafted a tweet, “The kid is mine, who do I need to ‘borrow‘ from?”


    Julie didn’t intend to send it, knowing what it would imply, but she never thought Kieran would snatch


    her phone and press send.


    Staring wide–eyed, Julie looked at Kieran and asked incredulously, “What did you just do?”


    “It was an ident,” he replied, then skillfully deleted the tweet, handed her the phone back, and said


    innocently, “It’s okay, I’ve deleted


    it.”


    Julie looked at her phone and indeed, it was deleted…


    But those quick on the draw had already screenshot it as evidence in less than two minutes.


    Seeing Julie’stest tweet deleted immediately after being posted, they quicklymented on the


    previous tweet.

    Julie held her tongue for a while, but couldn’te up with a single insult for Kieran. In the end, she


    could only tug at his tie in anger and helplessness and ask, “Do you want me dead, but you don’t want


    to get your hands dirty, so you’re letting thesements drown me?”


    Kieran’s hand, rough and strong, gripped Julie’s soft hand…


    “Let’s go public, announce that we’re married.”
