Chapter 53
Daphne was a real go–getter, always quick on her feet and never one to dilly dally. She said she would call Porter and boom, she was already dialing. Porter agreed to let Julie start working the very next day Daphne left Julie’s number with him and hung up, only to find Julie pacing nervously on the spot. “What’s up?‘ Daphne asked.
“I lost my phone, did I leave it at the restaurant last night?” Julie frowned. Even though the phone was old, it was still important to her.
Daphne shook her head “When you left last night, Mr. Hernandez took your phone with him. So…”
“Do you know where I can get a simple, cheap phone? Just for making calls” Julie had no intention of asking for her phone back, or rather, she didn’t want to see Kieran in the near future
Daphne rolled her eyes at Julie You’re being a total wimp!”
She took out a spare phone from her bag and handed it to Julie. “Just use this for now. Judging by the way you were acting last night, I guess you don’t want to see Mr. Hernandez ever again”
“How crazy was I last night?” Julie asked Daphne incredulously.
“Crazy as a mad cow”
Julie decided to put thoughts of last night on hold for now. Since her phone was in Kieran’s hands, she didn’t have to worry about him calling to ask questions
However, she was being too naiv
When Julie took the bus home, she stopped by the market to pick up a couple of veggies to cook, then headed home.
As she reached the entrance of her apartment complex, Ada, her next–door neighbor, gave her a knowing look and said, “Julie, I was going to introduce you to my cousin’s son! But it seems you already have a boyfriend!”
“Boyfriend?” Julie frowned in confusion.
Ada chuckled. “That young man is very handsome, you know. You’re not getting any younger, better hurry up. Oh, I can’t chat now, my grandson is waiting for me to cook dinner!”
Ada walked off, leaving Julie standing there with two bags of groceries. After a few seconds of silence, she realized that the only men who knew where she lived and had come to see her were Elliot and Kieran.
At this thought, Julie glanced at the door just a few steps away. Whether it was Kieran or Elliot, she didn’t want to see either of them. So, Julie quickly turned around, only to bump into a solid figure. Her nose throbbed with pain. Julie rubbed her small nose and then saw a pair of shiny black shoes
