Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 328 The Appointment

Two days after the news was released, Julian knew his plan worked till Eric called him.

But Eric mocked in a flat tone, "Do you think I'll be angry with your little story?"

Julian asked, "Why are you calling me?"

He continued, "I heard you sent someone to check your sister's school grades. I wonder how would it feel when I found out my sister is a study slacker full of lies." Eric gritted his teeth over the phone as Julian continued, "Well, your sister was a good student who won scholarships, at first, but

unluckily, she picked a wrong way.'

"You want to know why I'm calling you?" Eric interrupted with a mischievous smile tugging at his lips, "I just think you might miss your sister."

As Eric's voice fell, Caroline's heart-wrenching scream rose. "Julian, help!"

Caroline cried hysterically. "They made me take drugs and turned me into a damn druggie. Julian, you have to save me, or I'll die!" "They torture me, not giving me food..."

"Julian!" Caroline's miserable scream went to an abrupt stop as if she fainted.

Julian turned on the speakerphone, and Emelia was listening to this conversation. Caroline's scream turned Emelia's face pale. Taking drugs was something serious.

This was bad because no one knew how much Caroline had taken. She might die if she got too many drugs into her system. Emelia shot an anxious glance at Julian, who was in a badly sulk.

But Julian wasn't surprised because Caroline was drinking what she brewed.

Eric's tease lingered in Julian's ear. "Did you hear that? Mr. Hughes."

Julian sneered, "Before everything, listen up, I won't save her."

This was the first step Eric fought back. He wanted Julian to save Caroline and then turned the situation around.

So, Julian should stay assertive in this psychological warfare.

Eric showed his hands, "I'll take Caroline to Avonsor Hill in 40 minutes. If you want to save her, meet me there in an hour. Otherwise, you'll never see her again." "Oh, kindly remind, the drug in Caroline was a lot enough to take her life. She will die at any minute."

"Dont call the police. My people are everywhere in Avonsor Hill. Once they replace out any police officer, Caroline is dead.'

Eric hung up before Julian could say anything.

He was gambling on Caroline.

Julian could convince himself not to save Caroline, but Heather couldn't. She was begging Julian to save her daughter.

Julian was the only reliable person to Heather, so she must force Julian to do so.

Heather called when Julian was still holding the phone.

Heather was crying so hard over the phone. She begged Julian to save Caroline.

Julian found her disturbing and hung up on the phone. This wasn't just a yes-or-no thing.

Eric came back for revenge, so he wasn't afraid of death at all. And he might want to kill him and Caroline in the deep mountains!

None of this would happen if Caroline thought about this a little more.

Emelia noticed his depressing energy, so she poured him a cup of warm water.

Emelia was sad because it was restless after Julian was discharged from the hospital just for a few days.

Avonsor Hill was the only mountain in Riverside City, but it was the steepest. The rescue crew barely searched them there. How vicious Eric was! Julian took a sip and looked up at Emelia. "Do you want me to save her?"

Emelia pursed his lips and after a short silence, she said, "Caroline did something wrong, but we can't just sit and watch as Eric takes her life, right?"

"Is there any method to save you and her?" Emelia took Julian in her arms and her voice was distant and bitter.

Julian whispered in her embrace, "I'll call Ezra."

"Eric wants to meet me alone, then I'll let Ezra sneak up from the back. He'll help me in the shadows.'

To relieve Emelia's concern, Julian added, "Ezra is good at outdoor sports. He is an absolute rock-climbing expert and an excellent hiker."

"That's nice,' Emelia trusted Julian. Ezra must be as good as he said.

Julian then called Ezra, who geared himself and set off to the mountain first.

Ezra was so familiar with Avonsor Hill after having trekked through it over these years. He had the map of Avonsor Hill in his head, so he knew all the shortcuts there, and Eric only placed people on the main roads.

When Ezra was on the way, Julian quickly packed up.

Before he left, Emelia reminded him through tears, "Just come back safe."

"Okay,' Julian said determinedly, "Let's fix our marriage when I come back."

Emelia agreed, tears flooding her eyes.

She wished nothing but his safe return.

Julian drove off after saying her farewell.

Emelia's heart was jumping under her skin. And it would probably not stop until Julian came back safely.
