“Ever heard of the Fitzgerald family?”
Even if Julie was thest person to catch up with thetest gossip, she had heard of this well-known
family. She nodded, but was clueless about the connection between the Fitzgerald family and Sansa’s
donation.
“The first heir of the Fitzgerald family is Simon, does he ring a bell?”
“Isn’t he a super mysterious gal? There are no pictures of his in the newspapers. I’ve heard her name,
but never met her,” Julie replied.
Kieran gazed at her thoughtfully, “Simon set up a fund to aid special global cases, targeting challenging
diseases and specific cancer patients. The donation Sansa received came from the Fitzgerald family.”
“I heard from Dr. Brice that it was a donation from a charity organization, and the donor requested
anonymity. How could it possibly be rted to the Fitzgerald family?” Julie was puzzled. She tried to
retrieve all the information rted to the family from her memory, but couldn’t find a reasonable answer.
“After learning about the untraceable funds, I had Karl investigate the charity organization and track it
down. The final conclusion was that the donation was rted to Simon from the Fitzgerald family. Think
hard, do you have any info about this person?”
Despite Julie’s careful recollection, her mind was still a nk te.
“My understanding of this family mainlyes from newspapers, websites, and mentions by Daphne.
The name Simon is also unfamiliar to me, I’ve only heard it once or twice,” Julie stated.
Kieran mused, and Julie thought carefully for a while before speaking, “Sansa’s condition isn’t unique,
it’s not a typical challenging disease. Although I believe Karl’s investigation, Simon wouldn’t just donate
money to amon patient, right?”
Sansa was in a vegetative state. Doctors said she could potentially wake up, but the odds were slim.
The reason Julie was unwilling to pull the plug was because she always thought Sansa was the only
person in the world rted to her by blood. It was Sansa who orchestrated Julie and Kieran getting
together. Though what she did was despicable, Julie, as the victim, could not hate her. Sansa was the
only one who knew the Abraham family was going bankrupt yet still cared about Julie wholeheartedly.

After pondering for a long time, Julic finally said to Kieran, “If helping Sansa was Simon’s idea, could it
possibly be because Simon and Sansa knew each other? Otherwise, theoretically, an heir busy
handling family affairs wouldn’t single out a vegetative patient for support, especially when she isn’t a
special case.”
“Maybe!” Kieran had no obligation to tell Julie this, but he did anyway.
Julie was grateful for Kieran’s honesty and sharing, just that the sudden mention of Sansa made the
topic heavier.
She leaned on the desk, hesitated for a while, and finally looked at Kieran, “I actually have something
to confess to you as well.”
As Julie stuttered, Kieran knew she had something to say that made her feel guilty. So heforted
her by patting her shoulder, silently giving her the courage to speak.
Finally, Julie looked at Kieran and revealed something shecked the courage to say many years ago,
“On your birthday that year, you were drugged at the Starlight Haven Hotel. The person who drugged
you…”
“Was Sansa, I know.” He stood in front of Julie, gently moved his hand from her shoulder and ced it
on the desk behind her, bent over slightly, and trapped her in his arms.
At the moment Kieran said the answer, Julie was shocked. Years ago, she thought about telling Kieran
the truth, but it was all Sansa’s careful design, and the result of the design was just to give herself a
good ending. She couldn’t imagine what would happen after Kieran knew the truth, so she started
hiding it, gradually turned into self-deception and didn’t dare to speak up. Until now, when she finally
mustered the courage to confess, he suddenly told her that he knew from the beginning.
At this moment, Julie didn’t know how to react.
But he just said to her from less than ten centimeters away, “How could I not check someone who
drugged me right under my nose? And if I checked, how could I not find out?”
So, he knew from the beginning that everything was Sansa’s careful design, knew from the start that
the two of them being caught in bed at the hotel was a setup.
“Why would you willingly jump into a trap knowing it was a trap?” He could have chosen not to marry
her and not take responsibility, because all this was just a y directed by the Abraham family.
If Kieran had made the truth public back then, it wouldn’t have affected the Hernandez family’s
reputation at all, but it would surely have pushed the Abraham family into an irreparable situation.
But he didn’t expose Sansa’s lie, instead, he brought Julie home. During the first two years of their
marriage, she and Kieran were really happy, whether it was because she was easily satisfied or
because Kieran was indeed good to her, his small gestures made her feel happy and satisfied.
When Julie asked Kieran why he willingly jumped into the trap, Kieran simply said, “Because of love.”
A in and straightforward answer, simple yet it warmed her heart.
Julie was silent. Kieran reached out and gently touched her forehead, asking her indulgently, “What’s
on your mind?”
“I was wondering if I had been a bit more reserved that night at Starlight Haven Hotel, would you have
had some fun with that sexy long-haired woman, especially when her dress was already down to her
waist.”
“That woman was called by Annalise Hansen,” Kieran exined, he himself found it hard to imagine
what he would have done if Julie hadn’t shown up that night.
Julie suddenlyughed, “Your aunt really cares about you, blocking your admirers when you were little,
and even helping you pick girlfriends when you grew up. She’s amazing!”
“Even she couldn’t block you,” he gently pinched her face.
As a child, Julie did look like a promising boxer, so skinny she seemed malnourished. In her twenties,
she put on some weight, and after marrying him, she packed on even more pounds. It felt good to
pinch her face then, but at this moment she had lost weight
Julie caught his hand, it didn’t hurt when she had more weight, but with less weight, it kind of stung.
She looked up at him and said, “The reason I wasn’t blocked is because I’m one of the special kind.”
He silently listened to Julie’s exnation.
Julie was just saying it casually, and quickly turned serious again, “I’m nning to go to the hospital
later, and then go straight home. Should I take Ivan with me?”
“I’ll take him hometer. I’ll have Karl take you to the hospital,” Kieran suggested.
Julie quickly shook her head, “No need, I’m fine going by myself. Karl is your secretary, not mine.”
“Should I assign one for you?” he proposed.
“I’m just a small employee in the Legal Department, leave the luxury of having a secretary to you!
Remember to hire a slim beauty.” Julie seemed to remember something and asked Kieran, “Does
Simpo Co. pay a lot for overtime?”
Kieran nodded, “It’s decent.”
“No wonder, even though it’s Saturday, thepany doesn’t seem any different from a weekday.” Julie
originally thought since it’s Saturday, not many people would be working overtime, so bringing Ivan
along wouldn’t attract too much attention, but there were more people in thepany than she
expected.
Kieran knew another reason Julie asked this was because he just asked Tina to distribute benefits to
the employees who were working overtime.
Speaking of which.
“Honey, where’s the card I gave youst time?” He was referring to the card Julie used to pay for the
damage she caused to his car.
“At home.” She thought for a while and asked innocently, “Do I still have to pay for the car damage?”
“Do you still owe me a child? Will you give it to me?” He counter-asked.
Julie was momentarily speechless.
“How about you use my card from now on and your paycheck goes into your own bank ount, sound
good?” he proposed.
Julie thought for a moment, “I can ept that. Well, I should get going now.”
“Alright.” Kieran stood straight, making room for Julie to leave.
Julie turned around, paused for a second or two, then suddenly turned back, tiptoed to peck his cheek,
then immediately turned around, grabbed her purse, and ran
off.
The shy and surprising feeling was like going back to the time when she was just learning about love.
On the way to the hospital, she couldn’t help but reminisce about her wonderful yet vague childhood
memories. She was so engrossed that when she got out of the taxi and walked into the hospital, she
didn’t even have time to dodge a child rushing towards her.
