Chapter 75

Dylan didn’t see this coming. He tried to help out Julie, only to get caught in the act by Kerry

Dylan, who originally planned to let go of Julie, suddenly smiled, and intentionally held Julie tighter. “Mr. Hernandez, I’m impressed by how efficiently your company utilizes its staff. I admire Attorney Abraham’s professionalism in continuing to work while ill

Clearly, he was mocking Kieran for being heartless. Any sane person would’ve picked up on it.

After saying this. Dylan seemed to feel that his words were not sharp enough. He turned to Julie, smiled and said, “Attorney Abraham, you don’t have a boyfriend, do you?”

Kieran maintained a poker face, watching Dylan’s hand on Julie’s waist with a deep gaze. He was thinking that Dylan was asking for trouble.

Julie quietly broke free from Dylan’s hold, steadying herself.

She didn’t answer Dylan’s question but politely said “Thank you” to him.

“There’s no need to be so formal. I was just asking. Attorney Abraham, you’re not mad, are you?”

Julie shook her head.

Dylan completely ignored Kieran beside him and turned to Julie again: “The reason why I said Attorney Abraham doesn’t have a boyfriend is because I was thinking, if Attorney Abraham had someone to take care of her, she wouldn’t have to push herself to come to work sick.”

Every word from Dylan was provoking Kieran.

In the end, Kieran said, “Have you spent so much time with the dead that you’ve forgotten how to interact with the living?”

That was a harsh comeback.

Despite the one–and–a–half–meter distance between them, Julie could still feel the tense atmosphere between Kieran and Dylan.

She wanted to get out of the situation temporarily to avoid more misunderstandings

As Julie was planning to walk into the office, Kieran stopped her. “Didn’t I tell you last night that you didn’t have to come in today?”

“That was what Karl said.”

“Are you my lawyer or Karl’s lawyer?” Kieran asked Julie

Julie remained silent Contractually, she was indeed Kieran’s dedicated lawyer.

But that didn’t mean she had to obey Kieran’s orders
