Chapter 118

Harry's cruelty was something only experienced individuals could truly comprehend, especially those who had deeply loved him. It was heart-wrenching. Arya waited for his affection, only to receive merciless rejection.

Harry's indifference made Arya even more twisted. She didn't care that they were in a hospital. She used it as an opportunity to unleash her anger on the maid.

"It was all because of you! If you hadn't sneaked out while I was away, none of this would have happened! Were you still secretly contacting Julia behind my back? It seemed I hadn't disciplined you well enough. How dare you contact Julia behind my back.... Arya's tone grew increasingly ominous, and the maid endured in silence, afraid to utter a sound. She feared it might enrage Arya and lead to dire consequences.

Arya pinched the maid's flesh repeatedly, quickly causing bruises to form on the pinched areas. Seeing the maid remained silent, Arya became even more relentless.

Meanwhile, as Julia was leaving the hospital, Harry grabbed her hand, pulling her back into his embrace. The weather was warming up, and Harry's body temperature was high. Julia felt like she was falling into a furnace, hastily pulling away from

him.

Julia said, "Why did you come out? Weren't you supposed to be comforting Arya? She was crying her heart out, accusing us e you. I figured you'd be gently comforting her." of framing her. You should console her. Why did you leave? That wasn't Harry replied, "No need. She was an adult and should have known how to regulate her emotions."

Hearing this, Julia laughed. "When she did something wrong, why didn't you think that she was an adult and had the obligation to bear her mistakes?"

Though Julia didn't bring up past events again, she remembered them.nally mentioning them in front of Harry but knowing when to stop, as if sensing Harry's threshold. Then, she would stop talking about Arya.

Like now, when she noticed a slight change in his expression, she smiled provocatively. "What's wrong? Am I making you uncomfortable again by talking ill of your sweetheart?"

Harry responded, "No. I thought sometimes you spoke harshly, but that didn't mean you were wrong."

Julia was stunned. She had never expected to hear such words from Harry, almost as if he was acknowledging her assessment of Arya. She stared at him with a questioning gaze, only to be met with a stern look from Harry. Harry said, "I'll drive you back."

Julia didn't refuse. She waited for Harry to bring the car over. After Harry had driven away, she asked Valerie, "Is this still the Harry I know? I criticized Arya in front of him before, and he reacted so defensively."

"What does that mean?" Valerie said with a smirk. "It means Arya is no longer important in Harry's heart. This is chance. You need to seize the opportunity to occupy Harry's heart. I believe in you. Julia frowned. "What are you saying?"

your

Valerie said, "Look at you, beautiful, smart, and healthy. Any man would attract to you. Harry is no exception. Besides, have you noticed the way Harry looks at you now? I think there's a chance." Valerie's words undoubtedly stirred up ripples in Julia's heart. As Harry drove up, she got into the car slowly, recalling Valerie's words, and couldn't help but glance at Harry a few more times. Was there something unusual with the way he looked at her recently?

No, their interactions seemed the same as always. From her perspective, Harry was still annoying. 12:46 Sat, Nov 16 Q

Harry only noticed Julia's sequtiny and remained focused on drifing. Valerie sat in the back and to herself, which irritated Julia. She turned around and glared at Valerie. Valerie immediately stopped laughing and resumed her normal demeanor. Julia would no longer concerned about the maid's matter. What he didn't expect was that just a few days later, Arya would come directly to the company to replace her.

The relationship between Arya and Harry had always been well-known to the public. In order to avoid company gossip, Julia arranged to meet Arya at a nearby cafe during lunch break.

"Why are you looking for me! I don't think we have much to discuss," Julia said impatiently. Seeing Arya would only sour her mood. If it weren't for the concern that Arya might come to the company to cause trouble, Julia wouldn't have agreed to this meeting. Arya's tone turned cold when she thought Harry's avoidance was because of Julia. She regarded Julia as if she were an enemy and wanted to tear her apart. She asked, "Tell me, what do you want so that you'll leave Harry alone?" Julia was confused. "What did you say?"

Arya said impatiently. "I'm asking, what will it take for you to leave Harry alone?"

Julia was momentarily taken aback, then she chuckled at Arya's question. "Is that why you've come to see me?*

Every time Arya approached her, it was with such tedious inquiries, and Julia's response was always the same. "Haven't I told you before? As long as Harry agrees to divorce, I'll sign the papers immediately"

Julia redirected the conversation. "So the final issue isn't with me, you should be talking to Harry." It was best if Arya didn't some looking for trouble with her, but approached Harry instead. Julia couldn't provide Arya with a clear answer regarding the divorce. "I'm warning you. You'd better not provoke me. My patience is limited, and I know exactly what you're thinking," Arya cautioned.

Julia leaned back in her chair, arms crossed casually over her chest, and looked calmly at Arya. "Since you already know my thoughts, why bother asking me? Aren't you just pretending to be ignorant and asking for trouble?"

"Are you saying you're not willing to leave Harry on your own?" Arya asked.

"If that's what you think, then I can't do anything about it," Julia replied calmly.

Arya was infuriated. She couldn't meet Harry whenever and wherever she wanted. Not only was she unable to meet him, but even her calls were intercepted by Alden. Every request she made was delegated to Alden to handle. Because of this situation, Arya found herself with no other option but to seek out Julia.

Of course, Julia was unaware of the current situation between Arya and Harry. She still believed that Harry and Arya were going through a rough patch, which was why Harry had been spending more time with her lately. Julia found it amusing that she had unwittingly become a tool in their conflict "What are you laughing at?" Arya thought Julia was mocking her and glared at her, demanding an explanation.

"Is it a crime to laugh now? Who says I can't laugh? Til laugh if I want to, and if you're not happy about it, you can laugh too," Julia retorted.

Unfortunately, Arya couldn't replace it in herself to laugh.

In a fit of rage, Arya grabbed the water glass in front of her and splashed it onto Julia's face. Julia was caught off guard and hadn't expected the sudden attack, leaving her drenched.
