Chapter 94

When Elliot left. Julie knew that he wouldn’t be coming back, so she grabbed her own bag and got up. She wasn’t about to wait around for Kieran to come back and give her a lift.

She had planned to sneak out, but as soon as she opened the door to the private room, she bumped right into someone.

The familiar scent of the man was something Julie could identify even with her eyes shut. Kieran didn’t tell her that he had been waiting outside the door for two or three minutes, just waiting for her to fall into his arms.

Julie tried to back away, but he held onto her tightly. No matter how tough she was, she was no match for Kieran in terms of strength. Considering they were in a public place, Julie lowered her voice and looked up at him. “Let gol”

“You came at me first, and now you want me to let go? The man’s deep voice came from above. Julie looked up and saw his sharply cut jawline.

His facial features were strong and smooth, almost perfect from any angle. She turned her face away, unwilling to look at him. “Just because I bumped into you, means you have to hold onto me? If I hit you, would you just take it?”

“That depends on how you hit me. If it’s playful flirting, I won’t mind being hit Kieran caught a whiff of her sweet scent. was the smell of her favorite shampoo and shower gel, a refined floral fragrance that made it hard for him to let go. But in the end, he did let her go, instead taking her hand and leading her to the dining table.

“Since you’ve already ordered, might as well finish your meal. Don’t waste food.” Kieran led Julie to the table.

Julie was indeed hungry, so she started eating

After the meal, Kieran took Julie to his car. He didn’t ask her where she wanted to go, but told the driver, “To Noblewood Retreat.”

“Mr. Hernandez please let me out at a convenient place later!” Julie said.

Surprisingly, Kieran agreed, “Okay!

By a convenient place, Julie meant a bus stop or a subway station, but she didn’t expect Kieran’s understanding to mean dropping her right at her destination.

They passed two bus stops, but Kieran showed no signs of stopping the car Julie had no choice but to turn and look at Kieran, but he was already pretending to be asleep.

So Julie had to tell the driver, “Austin, please let me out at the next bus stop Thank you”
