Chapter 172

It was a pity that Adeline ordered so much food, and Julie didn’t even get time to eat before she was sent back.

She glanced at her watch, still half an hour to go to work, so Julie went to the cafeteria.

Her tummy was screaming for food and she totally forgot about her lunch date with Kieran, leaving him hanging.

As Julie walked into the cafeteria, she saw Davina chowing down with some colleagues. She flashed Davina a smile but noticed she was acting a bit squirrelly.

Following Davina’s gaze, she saw Kieran in the employee dining room, staring at her with a poker face.

It never crossed her mind that Kieran would be waiting for her here. Julie could feel a shiver running down her forehead as she approached him. Only then did she remember her phone had died, and she completely forgot to text Kieran back.

She didn’t grab any food, just plonked down opposite Kieran and started, “Look, I can explain…”

“Curry potatoes, bacon rolls, what else tickles your ” Kieran cut Julie off, pointing at her favorite dishes, “Eat up before the food

gets cold.”

Julie clamped her mouth shut, the words she was about to say stuck in her throat.

Shaking her head, she said, “No need, this is more than enough.”

Realizing she screwed up, Julie started to dig into the bacon rolls.

Kieran sat back in his chair, looking all chill but with a vibe of nobility, making Julie feel like she was being looked down upon. The bacon roll felt stuck in her throat.

“What did you say to Adeline?” he asked, his voice low and husky.

Adeline had dragged her out of the office earlier, with lots of colleagues around. But no one should know about Adeline, so Julie was surprised and asked, “How did you know I went out with Adeline?”

“I also know Elliot dropped you off at the office,” he said.

Julie looked puzzled, not speaking but just staring at him, trying to figure out what he was playing at.
