Chapter 216

Adeline and Julien, both bombshells, showed up wearing the exact same outfit. Julie was having a hard time telling who looked better. Everyone knew Adeline had a thing for red, but for some reason, Julien also showed up in an all-red outfit today.

Kieran turned to greet Mr. Watson and Harding. Adeline glanced at Julie, looking a bit guilty.

But Julie took the initiative to walk up and gave Adeline a hug, “Next time you want to talk, just hit me up. No need to kidnap me anymore.”

The atmosphere lightened up. It was like they found their old groove.

Adeline nodded seriously at Julie, “Next time I want to kidnap someone, it’ll be Mr. Hernandez, not you.”

“You might as well kidnap me…” Julie rubbed her forehead.

Almost everyone had arrived. Everyone started to head inside.

In the living room, Ivan was showing Julien a puzzle he had completed. The puzzle was a picture of Julien, he got it from god knows where. Even though Julien was poker-faced, Ivan was still excitedly chatting her up.

Payne obviously still wanted to get close to Julien, but Hayden occupied the seat next to her.

Annalise came up to Hayden with a rose, “Even if you’re trying to avoid me, you didn’t have to fly all the way back from abroad, did you? This is for you. I haven’t seen you in a while.”

Julien glanced at Hayden and Annalise, gave Ivan a hug and moved away a bit.

Ivan was over the moon because Julien hugged him.

Seeing the gap between Julien and Hayden, Payne quickly slid in between them.

Hayden gave Payne a cold stare, full of murderous intent. Payne felt like he could be killed by Hayden any second. He just wanted to compete with him! He didn’t want to die!

“Julien, what do you want to eat? I’ll grab some snacks for you.” With that, Payne stood up and headed for the kitchen.

Hayden shifted towards Julien, avoiding Annalise.

Annalise moved closer again, still holding the rose, “Why? You can’t even accept my flower?”

“Who are you?” Hayden asked.

Dylan burst out laughing and said to Hayden, “This is Annalise, Kerry’s aunt.”

Hayden replied, then turned to Julien, “Kerry and I are like brothers,
