Refusing To Divorce (Julia and Harry) -
Refusing 155
Chapter 155
Most people only wanted to know what they were interested in, such as the relationship between Julia and Asher. This became a topic of conversation within the company.
To Julia, she had a clear conscience and did not care about the rumors. Even if Jessica provoked her, she did not take it seriously. Her only worry was that if it reached Harry's ears, he might be suspicious. Because after the rumors spread, the people passing it on would change its original meaning and add fuel to the fire to turn it into another story.
Julia did not ask Harry to pick her up from work. It was not to prevent Harry from knowing about these boring things, but because she was worried about his health and hoped that he could go back and rest early. However, this little secret could not be hidden after it spread in the circle.
When Julia took a taxi home, she realized that Harry was looking at her strangely. She couldn't tell what she was feeling, but she didn't think about the rumors at the company. She still instructed the chef to prepare a light dinner. Harry brought home the unfinished work of the company. Usually, at this time, Julia would not disturb Harry or stop him. It was just like how she tried to stop Harry from going to work in the morning but failed.
Julia was watching TV in the living room. It was an urban idol drama. It happened to tell a story about a domineering CEO who had fallen in love with a silly girl. The silly girl maintained an abnormal relationship with another man in the eyes of others, causing the domineering CEO to misunderstand.
Julia usually did not like to watch it. Coincidentally, she was too bored today, so she used it to kill time.
When Harry was done and the two of them were chatting, Julia clearly felt that Harry was a little cold again. He also did not mention that they were going to have a meal with Jeff in a few days. She thought for a while but did not ask in the end. She felt that Harry must have his reasons for not mentioning it.
"Are there any problems with your work recently?" Harry took a sip of coffee and asked calmly.
Julia followed suit. She had never liked to drink coffee. She had been by Harry's side for a long time and was more or less affected. She was no longer as repulsed by coffee as before. She could occasionally drink a little. "There's no problem." "Did anyone make things difficult for you behind your back?"
"No," Julia answered without hesitation. After she finished speaking, Harry nodded and continued tasting coffee.
She looked at Harry a few times and subconsciously asked, "What are you trying to say?" Perhaps Julia was a little sensitive. "I feel that you have something to say. Have you heard the rumors from our company?"
Harry continued to remain silent and this gave Julia an answer. She put down the coffee cup and stared at Harry. "There's a seat on our side at noon. Asher is your friend and my superior. It's normal for us to let him sit and eat with us. In other people's eyes, there's something wrong with us. Why did Asher choose to eat with us?" Julia was not angry. Instead, she was very patient and communicated with Harry calmly.
"Even if you don't believe me, you should trust your friend. It's not like Asher doesn't know about our relationship." When Julia said this, she was still a little disappointed. She thought that Harry wouldn't suspect anything even if he knew, but in the end, it turned out differently from her expectations.
Harry saw that Julia was serious and paused for a moment. "Why are you being so serious? I won't suspect you."
Julia did not understand what Harry meant, but she did not ask further because she had already heard the answer she wanted.

Chapter 155
After this incident, Julia would subconsciously take a detour when she saw Asher. She was really afraid that these people from the company would gossip behind her back.
In the end, the news of Harry being admitted to the hospital could not be hidden. There were many people in the hospital. Many people saw Harry and recognized him. The news that he was not in good health and needed to recuperate spread like wildfire. Wright Group's people started to become restless. Julia was not in the Wright Group, so she did not know that Harry was always cared for by his elders during the company meetings these few days.
At this moment, Harry was sitting alone in his office. Alden stood beside him expressionlessly.
Just now, at the meeting, Harry's uncle once again suggested that Harry go home and recuperate for a period of time and hand the company over to someone else to manage on his behalf. However, he was rejected by Harry.
Even if it was just an agent, Harry was worried about handing the company over to anyone. Only by holding it in his own hands would he be at ease.
Alden said, "Mr. Wright, you look terrible recently."
Ever since he was hospitalized that day, Harry had been forcing himself to work. Even with the loving meal prepared by Julia, he could not resist the intense pressure. Harry waved his hand. "This is a critical moment. We have to hide it from Julia."
As long as they succeeded this time, Harry would be able to chase out all the people who were bad to the company. If they did not cause a scene, Harry would let them enjoy their later years in peace as repayment for the kindness of working for his father in the past. "If Mrs. Wright knows about this, she will definitely be very angry." Alden was a little worried. He had already regarded Julia as his boss. He felt that it would not be wrong to be loyal to Julia who could make Harry listen to her.
There were several times when Alden wanted to tell Julia, but he gave up when he thought of Harry's warning. After all, Harry was also his boss. He could not afford to offend either of them.
Harry only said, "I only need to hold on for three more days."
This calm city was filled with bright lights, people, and flowers every night. However, no one knew that behind the calmness, there were already surging waves. If a person gently added fuel to the fire, earth-shattering changes would happen.
Harry chased Alden out and wanted to be alone. His throat was uncomfortable and he coughed a few times to ease it. The piles of documents in front of him made him frown. A few founding ministers in the company had planted their trusted aides in the company and even by his side. He had already received news that they had been unable to hold back recently.
Harry placed the document beside him and leaned back in his chair to take a nap.
The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted the silence for a moment.
It was a call from Arya, whom he had sent to live overseas.
Arya would call Harry every now and then. Most of the time, he did not answer. As long as he did not answer, Arya would bombard him with messages and use various methods to force Harry to compromise. It was the same today. Harry had long seen through her tricks. Ten minutes after he hung up on Arya, Alden rushed into the office. "Mr. Wright, Arya jumped off a building and was hospitalized."

Chapter 155
Harry stood up abruptly. His gaze fell on his phone. It was a message from Arya five minutes ago. [I've already listened to you and left Cromont City. Why won't you even answer the phone? Seeing you like this, I feel that there's no point in living. I might as well die so that you don't have to care about what you promised my brother.]
