A Night with Her Cruel Mate

Chapter 25 Why Can't You Let Her Go

When Julia got home, Consuela had just finished cooking breakfast. She glanced at Julia and rolled her eyes. "Would you come here if it weren't time for breakfast?"

In response, Julia laughed.

"I made you porridge. You drank way too much last night, so you should eat light for breakfast," Consuela said as she handed Julia the bowl and a pair of chopsticks.

"How did you know that I drank a lot?" Julia blurted out, immediately feeling stupid after she asked.

Samuel must have been worried, so he called Consuela again.

She lowered her head and quietly ate her porridge.

"What do you mean?" Julia stopped eating and stared at Consuela with a quizzical expression.

"Just tell me!" Consuela insisted. She couldn't help but scold Julia inwardly for being so stupid. He was such a good man. Why didn't she cherish him?

"Well, he..." Julia stammered and then she smiled. "He's always so cheeky and playful around me, so I never seem to know what he's thinking of. I do know that he's a good man. Honestly, I have to thank him for what happened yesterday."

"Julia, don't you know? He is always serious when he's with other people. He's only like that with you," Consuela said.

"Really?" Julia asked, pausing for a while. "Maybe, it's because I already know him so well."
