Chapter 149

"Harry, who is this Jeff? Why is he staying in such a place?" Julia asked Harry on the way back to the hotel. She was really curious. "I've never seen someone like Jeff

Harry said, "He's the eldest son of the Reed family. When he was young, he lost his ability to walk in a car accident and became a loner. He lived here for more than half a year every year. Only he and the old man we saw just now were staying here. He didn't care about the Reed family's matters and stayed here to recuperate."

"No wonder I've never seen him stand up. However, I replace his attire very novel. Jeff was in his early thirties, but he liked to wear a suit. He did not like to smile, as if he was not interested in anything. "I'm very curious about how the two of you became friends. Asher is so chatty. You and Jeff don't like to talk. Your personalities are completely different. I can't imagine how the three of you are hanging out together."

"Asher is in charge of speaking. Jeff and I are in charge of listening" Harry did not replace it strange. On the contrary, Jeff liked to listen to Asher's nagging. "Every time we come to Willow City we come to see him. He doesn't like to leave this city."

Julia nodded. Harry asked her, "Are you very interested in him?

"No, I'm very interested in the bead necklace he's wearing. From the luster, I know it's priceless."

Harry smiled. "It's worth 20 million dollars."

Julia was not too surprised. She just sighed and said, "It's good to be rich. Any random thing on him is something that ordinary people can't earn in their entire lives." After a pause, she added, "It's indeed not safe for him to walk on the streets like this. It's best to stay at home."

Julia felt that one shouldn't easily reveal their wealth to others. However, Jeff was very obvious with his wealth.

She asked, "Why haven't I heard you mention Jeff before?"

"What's there to mention?" It was not Harry's style to mention other men in front of Julia. Besides, he didn't think that there was any need to mention Jeff.

He had brought Julia to meet Jeff because he wanted to bring her to meet his friend and relax. Jeff's place was peaceful and undisturbed. It was definitely a good place for nervous people to relax. As it turned out, that was indeed the case.

Julia returned to the hotel and said a few words to Harry before going to the side to do some work. She had already wasted the entire morning and could not hang out with Harry anymore "Arrange it yourself. Don't disturb me for the rest of the time." Harry nodded. Just like in the morning, he sat by the bed with the book in his hands and read it seriously. It was as if they had never left the hotel and Julia had never seen Jeff because Jeff gave off an illusion that he was unreal.

Julia was engrossed in painting. When night fell, her stomach growled. She finally felt hungry and was willing to put down her pen. Harry, on the other hand, had fallen asleep on the beanbag. The book was placed on his face, covering most of his face. Julia put down the computer and walked quietly to Harry. Then, she squatted down and moved the book on Harry's face.

Harry's eyelashes were very long and curled up. They swayed slightly like a butterfly flapping its wings. She did not turn on the lights in the room. The lights outside the window passed through the dense leaves and shone mottled shadows on Harry's face. It was vague, real, and illusory at the same time, like a woven dream. Julia could not see it clearly, but she was uncontrollably immersed in it.

She raised her hand involuntarily and gently placed her fingers on Harry's eyelashes. When she noticed that Harry's eyelids

moved, Julia immediately became obedient. She vaguely remen bered that Harry had said a lot to her before she fell asleep. last night, but she was very sleepy and had not slept well for two days. She wondered what exactly Harry said to her last night after she fell asleep.

Julia stared at Harry without blinking. She did not want to wake Harry up. She even secretly muted Harry's phone.

She brought a chair over and sat beside him. She held her chin with both hands. She felt that his face was indeed a gift from the heavens. Harry's sleeping appearance was quiet and beautifu. He looked approachable and did not have his usual airs. It seemed to be even easier to move one's heart. Julia sighed in her heart. She remembered that when she was young, she would always follow Harry around. However, at that time, Harry would always be by Arya's side. She saw Arya al Harry acting cute and holding Harry's arm intimately. Harry would also smile at Arya.

At the thought of this, Julia immediately pulled a long face. Every time Harry smiled at her, he was doing it to mock her. She said, "Bastard!"

"What?" Harry slowly opened his eyes.

"You're awake?" Julia asked, "I thought you were going to sleep here until tomorrow morning."

Harry slowly glanced at Julia. "I heard someone scolding me. How can I still sleep?"

"So you were pretending to be asleep to see if I would beat you up when you were not prepared?" Julia stood up. "I'm not someone who takes advantage of others, but you're going too far by pretending to be asleep. I'm starving. I didn't wake to be asleep." up because I didn't want to disturb your sleep, but you were actually pretending

you

"If you weren't pretending to be asleep, how would I know that you would stare at me for so long?" Harry pulled Julia's hand and pulled her into his arms.

Julia hurriedly sat on Harry's lap and subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck. "Are you taking advantage of me?"

Julia lowered his head. Harry's hand was placed on her waist. The itchy feeling and warm temperature passed through her thin clothes. Julia wanted to stand up.

Harry placed his chin on Julia's shoulder. "Let me hug you."

Upon hearing this, Julia instantly sat obediently on Harry's lap and did not move. She looked at Harry in a daze and said angrily, "Don't speak to me in such a pitiful tone. I'm not so easy to coax." "Well?"

"Well what?"

"I sent Arya away before I came to you."

When Julia heard that, she stopped being upset.

She thought, 'If Arya is sent away, does that mean that Arya is no longer in Cromont City?

She asked, "Was Arya willing to leave?"

"Of course not." Harry did not want to hide it from Julia. "The day before she was sent away, she tried to commit suicide at home and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment."

Julia recalled that Harry had not contacted him the day before. "So you didn't contact me that day because of Arya?"

"Not entirely." Harry hugged Julia tightly. "Arya is always a ticking time bomb by my side. I will send her away sooner or later. I just didn't expect her to be so extreme. She would rather die than leave Cromont City." 2/3 10:24 Wed, Nov 27

Julia smiled and said, "She's pot unwilling to leave Cromont City She's unwilling to leave you." After a pause, she continued, "Even if you send Arya away, she'll sneak back. If you don't believe me, we can make a bet." Harry shook Julia's hand. "I don't want to bet."

"You know that, right? That's why you don't dare to bet with me Julia could no longer smile. "However, I've never interfered in the matter between you and Arya, whether it's in the past or now." SEND GIFT
