Love’s Cunning Ruse ( Mr.Kieran And Julie )

Chapter 204

“Julie, are you doubting my abilities?” Payne walked up to Julie, took a seat and said, “If I wasn’t a hundred percent sure, do you think I would dare to come after Kerry’s reward? Do I look like I have a death wish?”

Julie’s lack of trust in Payne wasn’t the issue, it was just that ever since Sansa and Kyle broke up amicably, she had completely lost touch with him. She knew that Sansa had deep feelings for Kyle and that he had genuinely cared for Sansa in the past. But back then she was young, she only knew that Sansa and Kyle suddenly broke up, not knowing the exact reason why. The normally candid Sansa never mentioned the cause of their breakup.

All she remembered was one day, Sansa held her and cried her heart out without saying a word. It was only after her persistent questioning that Sansa finally revealed the reason. She seemed to have used all her strength to say, “Joyce, it’s impossible for Kyle and me…”

Back then, the naive Julie encouraged Sansa to win back Kyle. She thought that persistence would definitely yield a result, and even if it didn’t, there would be no regrets because at least she tried. But looking back now, whether two people can end up together isn’t something that can be decided by one-sided effort, is it?

She thought that Kyle would appear after something happened to Sansa, but he didn’t.

So much so that Julie completely forgot about Kyle’s existence later on. Now he’s appeared again, and even paid a high price for her mother’s most treasured jewelry. What does this mean?

Julie looked at Payne and asked, “Is Kyle in Veridia now?”

Payne furrowed his eyebrows and shook his head, “Veridia? Kyle is a British citizen. After returning to Britain, he didn’t continue to practice law, but opened a law firm. S&J International Law Firm now has branches in thirteen countries around the world.”

After Payne finished, he turned to Kieran and said, “Kerry, tell me, how could he have established such a large enterprise in such a short period of time if he didn’t have strong connections supporting him?”

“Kyle’s parents are both locals. I met them when he and Sansa got engaged. His family is very simple. How could he be a British citizen? Did they immigrate?” Julie asked.

Payne shook his head, “I’m not sure about that. According to the electronic records, Kyle was born and raised in London, Britain. He came to our country because he was working as a foreign affairs lawyer. Although I haven’t found any information about his parents yet, but…

Payne handed his tablet to Julie and pointed at Kyle’s face on the screen, “Julie, do you think his facial features look exactly like ours?”

Julie had seen this face many times. At first, she just thought he was handsome, with deep-set features and clear contours, especially his cheekbones, which did look a bit mixed.

She said somewhat helplessly, “I do seem to remember him saying he’s a quarter British. Even Sansa didn’t care about it at the time, how could I remember?”

“Julie, you’re so naive, how did you manage to catch such a cunning guy like Kerry?” Payne asked this question, and the entire office immediately fell silent.

A few seconds later, Kieran sitting across from him finally said grimly, “I set the trap too perfectly. Mrs. Hernandez has poor vision, so once she’s in, she can’t get

“Kerry, teach me how to set traps!” Payne patted Kieran’s shoulder trustingly.
