Chapter 123

Chapter 123 Nothing

As soon as the car stopped, the phone rang.

Yuliana was woken up by the ringtone. She opened her eyes and was in a daze. She was still stunnedwhen she stared out of the window. After a few seconds, she realized that she had arrived.

Harry glanced at the caller and glanced at the passenger seat again. Then, he touched the screen toanswer the call.

“Harry, are you busy?” The woman’s gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.

Harry responded indifferently. Then, he asked, “What’s the matter?”

Scarlett said happily, “Well, my dad wants to go fishing this afternoon. He wanted me to ask if youwanted to go with us?”

Harry stared at the front with his stern gaze for a while and, with moderate strength, tapped thesteering wheel with his fingers. He did not answer immediately. After a long silence, Scarlett could nothelp but feel a little anxious.

Scarlett was afraid Harry would be in a dilemma, so she said in a considerate manner, “Harry if you arebusy. it’s okay.”

Harry said, “I have time to spare in the afternoon. What time will Mr. Lynch be leaving?” Scarlett’s voicewas full of joy. “It’s a little hot today, maybe later, at three or four o’clock.” Harry said, “I’ll be there later.”

Scarlett said, “Then we’ll wait for you at home.”

Harry gave his acknowledgment and did not say anything after that. Then, he hung up the phone.

As soon as he was done answering the phone, Yuliana was completely awake.

She thanked Harry. Then, she unfastened her seat belt, so she could open the door to get out of thecar.

Yuliana took a few steps toward the entrance of the residential area when she heard Harry calling hername. “Yuliana.”

Yuliana stopped and turned around. She saw Harry open the car door and got off the car. He strodeover and stopped in front of her.

The sunlight was a little blinding. Yuliana frowned and stared blankly at him. “Is there anything else?”She looked at him indifferently. There was neither warm love nor lingering hatred in it. There was onlycalmness and aloofness, as if the person in front of her had not left any trace in her heart.

Harry’s gaze sank slightly. After two seconds, Harry said, “Grandma is very happy to see you today. Ifyou are free in the future, go and see her often.”

After hearing this, Yuliana frowned and wanted to say something, but after pondering for a short while,she still did not say anything.

In fact, there was no point in saying those words when there was no love or hatred.

Besides, even though she and Harry were strangers to one another, his grandma treated her very well.The nurse who took care of Harry’s grandma said that the old lady had been in poor health in recentmonths and might not have many days ahead of her anymore.

Harry was humbled when he spoke to Yuliana. It must be for the sake of his grandma.

Yuliana said in a low voice, “I’ll go when I have the time.”

Harry said, “Thank you.”

Yuliana lifted the corner of her mouth and said coldly, “I have said it before. You don’t have to thank me.I didn’t do this for your sake. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”

After that, Harry did not say anything.

Yuliana turned around and was about to walk to the entrance of the residential area.

Perhaps she exerted too much strength when she turned around, and on top of that, she was notfeeling well,

so Yuliana became dizzy for a short while and almost fell to the ground.

Harry subconsciously reached out and helped her.

Yuliana closed her eyes and paused for a few seconds. She did not open her eyes until the dizzinesspassed. She glanced at Harry, who was holding her, and immediately withdrew her hand.

After Harry noticed that she was not feeling well, he asked, “Do you want me to walk you in?”

“No,” Yuliana replied.

Yuliana left immediately.

After walking for less than two steps, she suddenly stopped and looked ahead from afar.

At the entrance of the residential area, Christopher was standing there in a white shirt and black pants.His blonde hair was especially eye-catching in the sunlight.

She did not know how long he had been standing there or how long he had been watching.

Even if nothing was going on between her and Harry, she felt a little guilty.

She thought, “Isn’t he in Romdale? When did he come back?”

Perhaps because of the distance, Yuliana could not see the expression on his face. She could only seea pair of his eyes staring at her coldly.

They looked at each other across the air for a moment. Then Christopher walked over with his longlegs.

After getting closer, Christopher did not look at her again.

His gaze fell on the person behind her, which was Harry. His gaze was as cold as ice, but a smileformed on his lips, and he said nonchalantly, “Mr. Ziegler, I haven’t seen you for a while, and you’relooking more decent.”

Harry’s gaze was calm. He smiled and said, “Thank you, Mr. Solace.”

Sometimes, Christopher admired Harry very much.

Christopher looked at him coldly and snorted contemptuously. “Mr. Ziegler, I heard that you are gettingmarried soon. I would like to congratulate you first. Remember to let me know when the weddingreception is. I will definitely attend with Ana!”

Then, he pulled Yuliana into his arms.

Yuliana felt a dull pain in her wrist because Christopher exerted too much strength.

She frowned and struggled twice. But she did not manage to break free.

Christopher tightened his grip and did not give Yuliana the slightest chance to resist.

Harry glanced at Yuliana, and there was a faint glint in his eyes. He reminded, “Mr. Solace, you’rehurting Yuliana.”

Christopher lowered his eyes and looked at Yuliana. “Oh? Did I hurt you?”

Yuliana’s face was pale, and there was a thin layer of sweat on Yuliana’s forehead. Yuliana frownedand pursed her lips while looking at him coldly.

She said in a low voice, “Let me go.”

They looked at each other silently for a moment, and in the end, Christopher loosened his grip.

Yuliana was in no mood to pay heed to the childish tricks of the two men, so she walked toward theresidential area.

Christopher stared at her back for a while. Then, he turned his head and looked at Harry coldly. “Harry,I was just flattering you by addressing you as Mr. Ziegler, so don’t even think that I’m taking youseriously! Yuliana is my woman now. You’d better get away as far as you can. She’s not someone for aperson like you to get. your hands on her.”

After saying that, he strode toward Yuliana.

After she reached home, Yuliana washed her face with warm water. Then, she ate a small piece ofchocolate and drank more than half a glass of warm water. After she sat down and rested for a while,the symptoms of low blood sugar gradually disappeared.

When Christopher came back, he walked to the balcony and smoked.

Both of them ignored each other.

Yuliana was not feeling well, and on top of what Christopher said, she was a little emotional and did nottake the initiative to explain to him.

After ordering takeouts, she went back to her room and lay down.

A few minutes later, the bedroom door was pushed open, and footsteps were approaching. Finally, itstopped by the bed.

“Do you have nothing to explain to me?” Christopher asked.

Yuliana just closed her eyes and did not fall asleep.

After hearing his words, she opened her eyes after a few seconds and looked at him indifferently.

“Nothing.” Yuliana responded.

They looked at each other silently for a few seconds again. Christopher turned around and left theroom. After a while, the sound of the door being slammed came from outside.

Yuliana closed her eyes, and it was difficult for her to control her emotions.

She knew that she also had a big problem.

She should explain it clearly to Christopher.

But sometimes, people were like this.

What one thought would be contrary to what one said.

In the end, it would hurt others and oneself.

As Yuliana gradually calmed herself down, she picked up the phone from the low cabinet by thebedside and hesitated whether to call Christopher.

After a few minutes, she still did not make the call.

At last, she put her phone back.
