Love’s Cunning Ruse ( Mr.Kieran And Julie ) -
Chapter 43
Chapter 43
Elliot was standing at the door, car keys in his left hand, and coffee and a sandwich in his right. His eyes were glued to the scene on the couch.
Julie was in Kieran’s arms, his hand on her waist, and their poses screamed intimacy.
It was as if time froze at that moment. A few seconds later, the silence in the room was broken by the appearance of Karl.
Karl hadn’t expected to see such a juicy scene this early in the morning, and he momentarily forgot to come in.
It was only when Julie suddenly reacted, pushing away Kieran’s hand from her waist and standing up abruptly, that Karl snapped out of his daze.
Kieran, on the other hand, acted like it was no big deal and asked Karl, “Where are my clothes?”
Karl quickly handed a bag with clothes to Kieran. Then, he stood awkwardly next to Julie, waiting for Kieran to change. Elliot was still holding breakfast in his hand. Kieran returned from the bathroom, dressed in a suit, looking as suave as ever.
Karl then handed the breakfast to Kieran, who gave Karl a cold look. “You really don’t know how to read the room. Ms. Abraham’s fiancé rarely visits. Let’s not bother them and eat breakfast in the car.”
After he finished speaking. Kieran nodded to Elliot and walked out with Karl as if nothing had happened. He left just as boldly as he had arrived yesterday. For the first time, Julie truly appreciated Kieran’s shamelessness.
Elliot was standing right in front of her, still holding the breakfast, his eyes glued to her as if waiting for her to explain.
“Have a seat, Julie said, pointing to the couch, maintaining a polite hostess demeanor,
Eventually, Elliot sat down on the couch, placed the breakfast on the small coffee table, and turned to Julie, asking, “Are you and Kieran…. still in touch?”
He thought for a while and then asked this.
Julie smiled faintly. “Mr. Sanches, that’s my private matter.”
She thought Elliot would continue to probe, but he simply pointed at the breakfast on the coffee table and said, “I bought this just for you.”
Then, looking at his expensive wristwatch, Elliot flashed a gentle smile and said, “It’s almost time for work. I better get going.”
So, Elliot was just here to bring breakfast?
Julie had to admit that she was somewhat puzzled by Elliot’s intentions. His family was strongly opposed to their relationship, so he should’ve been confined at home now. How was he here?
She didn’t think too much about it and brushed off Elliot’s actions.
No sooner had Elliot left than Karl came back.
“Do you need anything else?” Julie asked, feeling somewhat drained at the sight of Karl at the door.
Karl respectfully looked at Julie. “Mrs. Hernandez…
“Karl, if you call me Mrs. Hernandez again, I’ll tell your wife we’re having an illicit affair,” Julie threatened effectively.
In the end, Karl changed his address, “Ex Mrs. Hernandez, here’s the repair bill for the car you hit last night. Mr. Hernandez said he would like to discuss the compensation with you face–to–face at lunch today.”
