Chapter 1477


    Julien had always acted as if he was above everyone else, and he was so cold that he wouldn''t


    even bother to talk to anyone. Somehow, when Vanessa was discussing something serious with


    him, he was acting like it was just some trivial matter.


    His attitude really made her feel like hitting him in the face.


    Seeing that Vanessa was so agitated, Julien knew that he should stop teasing her. He said, "Okay,


    okay... I''ll be more serious, alright? What do you think we should do then?"


    Vanessa gave Julien another re before voicing her opinion, "We need to find the people behind it


    and stop them from spreading the news."


    Julien raised his eyebrows and said, "They''ve already caused so much trouble by spreading the


    news. Will stopping them be enough?"


    Vanessa said, "Stopping them is the first step. The next step is to counterattack. My mother taught


    me not to mess with anyone, but if they dare to mess with me, I will definitely make them regret


    coming to this world."


    Ever since Julien knew Vanessa, he was captivated by her confident and ruthless demeanor. He


    lowered his head and gently bit her ear lobe. Then he said, "How should we fight back then?"


    Vanessa gritted her teeth as she said fiercely, "I''ll give him a taste of his own medicine."


    Julien said, "Okay, we''ll do as you say. I''ll get someone to get it done right away."


    Vanessa asked, "What? Aren''t you going to think it over first?"


    Julien pinched her face. "You did well today. I''m very satisfied with your performance so I''ll do as


    you say."


    In fact, Julien never had to deal with these kinds of matters himself. He had someone who could


    handle it well on his behalf. However, he was willing to spend time listening to Vanessa''s opinion,


    and he would do whatever she wanted. Moreover, her opinion coincided with his, which made him


    very extremely pleased.


    Vanessa added, "I''m the crux of this matter. If you need my help, just let me know. I will do


    everything that I can to help out. By the way, I won''t be charging you anything for it, so you don''t


    have to worry about bothering me."


    Julien said, "Let''s get married now."


    Vanessa immediately changed the topic. "By the way, it''s time for Lawrie to take his medicine. I


    have to go now."


    Julien grabbed Vanessa''s hand and refused to let her go. "Vanessa, I''m being serious here."


    Vanessa smiled awkwardly. "So am I."


    Julien said in dissatisfaction, "Vanessa Love!"


    Vanessa said, "You promised to give me some time to think it over. Are you going back on your


    words already?"


    Yes, Julien had promised her that he would give her time to consider their marriage. How could he


    go back on his promise?


    Under Vanessa''s gaze, Julien slowly let go of her hand. "Vanessa, everything I''ve said to you is still


    valid, and it will always be. Nothing has ever changed."


    Did she still remember that he told her he would take care of her for the rest of her life?


    Vanessa remembered everything Julien had told her, but after that incident, she did not dare to have


    any hopes about him anymore. Hence, she could only y dumb. "I''m not a robot, how can I


    remember everything you''ve said to me?"


    Listening to Vanessa''s reply, Julien''s face darkened.


    "I have to go back to Lawrie," said Vanessa. "Why don''t you go take care of your own matters first?"


    Julien did not respond to her.


    Whenever he was angry, he wouldn''t speak. Vanessa knew him very well, so she thought that it


    would be the best to leave him alone. Once he had cooled down, everything would be fine again.


    Julien watched as Vanessa entered Lawrie''s ward. Seeing that she was ignoring him, he raised his


    eyebrows in displeasure and said to himself, "Ever since she has that kid, she doesn''t care about


    me anymore. Are all women like this?"


    No, that was not right.


    None of the women in their family were like this.


    His mother, Karen Daly, was not like this at all. She would always care about his father''s feelings


    even after having children. It was the same for his sister, Karen Joy Kyle. She was glued to her


    husband even after she had Larry. Aunt Mia was even worsepared to the two of them. She


    would only bully her son.


    "Ah! Lawrie!"


    As Julien was immersed in his thoughts, Vanessa''s shrilling scream sounded in his ears. Julien,


    who had always been calm, immediately rushed into the room. "Vanessa, what happened?"Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Lawrie... Julien... Lawrie..." Vanessa was so shocked that she could not speak coherently. She


    grabbed Julien tightly and said, "Quick, quick... Save Lawrie. Please, save him. Save him!"


    "Calm down, Vanessa!" Julien quickly looked at Lawrie who was lying on the hospital bed. His face


    was as pale as a ghost, and his eyes were shut. Julien put his finger under his nose and noticed


    that his breath was so weak that he could hardly feel it.


    Julien immediately pressed the emergency button. "The patient has passed out. Send someone


    here immediately."


    Seeing that Lawrie was not breathing, Vanessa was in so much shock that she had forgotten to


    press the emergency button. All she cared about at that moment was Lawrie, who was lying


    unconscious on the bed. She begged, "Don''t scare me, Lawrie. Can you please open your eyes and


    look at me? Mommy is here. Please talk to me."


    Julien said to Vanessa, "Calm down,


    Vanessa. He''ll be fine."


    Vanessa refused to listen to Julien. She continued, "Can you please talk to me? Are you not talking


    to me because you''re angry at me? I promise you, Lawrie. If you wake up, I will ask the police to


    take this big bad guy away. I won''t let him show up in front of you again."


    Listening to what Vanessa had again, Julien''s face once again fell. But for the sake of Lawrie, who


    was ill, Julien did not get mad.


    Soon enough, the doctors and nurses arrived at the ward, "Mr. Kyle..."


    Julien said, "Take a look at him now. You must cure him no matter what."


    The doctors nodded repeatedly and quickly surrounded Lawrie, trying to resuscitate him.


    Seeing that Lawrie was not responding, Vanessa was so nervous that she was biting on her lip. She


    wanted to ask something but she did not have the courage to do so. She was afraid that the answer


    she received would be bad news.


    Julien grabbed her hand tightly in his palms and said, "Don''t hurt yourself, Vanessa. I promise you


    that nothing will happen to Lawrie."


    Vanessa bit her lip and remained silent. She was afraid that she would burst into tears if she were to


    utter a sound.


    She was Lawrie''s only family and his only pir of hope. She must not copse before Lawrie did.


    Julien added. "Vanessa, you''re not his only family now. As long as you and Lawrie are happy, I''m


    willing to raise him up with you."


    Vanessa was still biting her lip, refusing to say a word, which made Julien wonder if she heard what


    he had just said. "Trust me, Vanessa. Lawrie will be fine. He will definitely be fine."
