"What are you saying?" Fod's eyebrows knitted tightly, as if he didn't believe that it was Julia who had spoken those words.
"So what do you expect?" Julia's voice was calm and serious, "What do you think I should say for what you're doing now?"
"Do you think I'll take the bait if you lower your face and show me goodwill?"
"President Ainsworth, don't be so confident. There won't be any unchanging feelings in this world, and I won't just revolve around you."
Julie said mercilessly, her every words were piercing. Stabbing straight into Ford's chest.
Jeffrey, who was coming up from behind, wished he could cut off his ears.
He felt that after hearing this, he would lose his job. What was going on?
Julia did not believe that Ford was like this because he loved her.
There was only one possibility for him to act like this now, and that was the proud son of heaven could not accept that someone who was extremely infatuated with him would suddenly ditched him without any care or hesitation.
He thought that by sprinkling sugar, she would obediently go back to his embrace.
Ha!
Nice idea!
She had been tortured by the divorce matter for so long, and she must be crazy if she takes his stupid bait again.
Nothing was as important as life.
And she was the one who cherished her life the most.
Ford seemed to be choking on his words. His eyes suddenly lit up and dimmed. The anger was stuck in his heart and he couldn't release it. In addition, he felt extremely tired after working hard for many days. The bracelet slipped from his hand and he turned around and left without saying a word.
Julia looked at the bracelet on the ground and immediately closed the door ruthlessly.
Nothing. It was just a shabby bracelet.
But a minute later, the door opened again. A slender hand struggled to pick up the bracelet on the ground through the crack in the door. She muttered to herself, "I didn't do it. It's because this hand has its own ideas."
After picking it up, she looked at the bracelet shining under the light. It was really somewhat beautiful.
Too expensive to ignore it!
He was indeed a big boss, he threw away such a precious item just as he pleased.
Damn, she was only thinking of the old ancestor's words to display her virtue of thrift and diligence. She just couldn't afford to waste, however, as she didn't want to take any of that damn man's things, she could only find a time to give it back to him.
She suddenly remembered the silent and speechless expression on the man's face when he left, and it was as if he was tired.
After thinking for a moment, she decided that this was not something she should care about. Then, she directly put the bracelet on the dressing table and washed up and rested.
........
The night was as cool as water, and the moonlight shone on the windowsill, swaying gently.
Green plants flourished around the Cloud Bay Apartment, and the gentle rustling sound of the breeze was very pleasant to hear.
On the bed, Julia frowned. Her sweat covered her face and some of her wet broken hair stuck on her forehead. She was having a very bad dream.
The dream world was entangled repeatedly, and she could not break free. Her perception even told her clearly that she was really in a dream, but her body was heavy and her eyes seemed to be stuck. No matter how hard she tried, she could not open them.
It was not easy to struggle till the early hours of the morning, and the sky lit up slightly.
Julia finally came out of her dream.
Her body was already soaked in cold sweat. Her face reflected a faint sweat and her hair was sticky on her face and neck.
She struggled to open her eyes wide and looked around blankly. Then, she jumped up and touched her butt.
That's great!
Still here, still here!
Just now, she dreamed that, that damn man wearing white coats and gold—rimmed glasses, was holding a scalpel in his hand, carrying a gentle scum look, and smiled as he said to her, "Where do you want to run to?"
Julia powerlessly fell back onto the bed. She didn't expect that she would actually fill her mind with a plot that wasn't in this novel.
That shit man actually wanted to dig out her kidney!
The damn man was too fucking abnormal!
He actually ran into her dream and stopped being a human!
Too terrifying.
Did he think she was still the poor girl who allowed him to do whatever he wanted?
If he really dared to dig out her kidney, she would have to dig up their ancestral grave!
Who taught him to be like a shit man!
Right at the moment, her phone rang. Julia took the phone and saw that it was a message from Jeffrey
["Madam, the president has a fever. Can you come over and take a look at him?"]
Julia, who was in a fit of anger, picked up her phone and clenched her small fist. She clenched her teeth and typed a few words.
"Let him take medicine if he's sick!"
Jeffrey on the other side, "…"
Why does it feels like even in her text, Madam seems to be carrying her angry tone.
Ford, who was lying on the ultra—size bed, was indeed not in a good condition. Last night, he did not return back home and stayed in his new residence in Cloud Bay. His continuous heavy work and being angered by someone made him want to calm down by taking a cold shower.
As a result, his body finally issued a protest, and thus he had a fever.
Jeffrey accompanied him all night. Ford asked him to return to the company this morning. But as he was worried, he suggested Julia to come and to take care of him. After all, she lived so close to him.
Jeffrey's hesitant expression told Ford that he had been rejected. That small child's temper had become even worse recently.
Jeffrey carefully figured out some words and said, "Madam wants you to drink more hot water."
These words were made up by him. No matter what, it was better than her Madam's, 'Take medicine if he's sick.'
"You see, it's not that Madam doesn't care about you at all. She told you to drink more hot water!"
Ford narrowed his eyes, "Are you very idle?"
In the next second, he directly pressed the automatic door button, and the door instantly closed.
Jeffrey, "..."
What did he say wrong?
I had already minded my words so much!
Lying on the bed, Ford, who was dizzy, picked up his phone and edited a text message.
"Julia, is your heart made of cement?"
The red exclamation mark bounced back in a second. He failed to send this message.
"..."
It turned out that Julia blacklisted him. Not only his Facebook, but also his phone call and text message.
For these actions, they deserved the title of "A divorced couple with the clearest boundary."
After Julia replied in a daze, she fell asleep again until the alarm clock sounded at noon.
She urged Lily to come and pick her up for the audition.
The audition for the play starring Steve was scheduled at two o'clock this afternoon.
Lily came quickly this time. Looking at Julia limping, she asked, "Can you do this?"
"Of course I can. Today, what I will act is part that shows a person's inner heart. There's no need for legs."
"Alright." When Lily helped Julia out, a well—dressed and well—trained servant came out of the elevator and went to the next room.
Lily entered the elevator and whispered to her, "Do you know that you live next door to a man of great wealth?"
She then went to chirped, "The whole building over there once belonged to my father's comrade—in—arms. It is said that it was bought by a tyrannical boss and it cost nearly two billion dollars."
"..."
Julia's face was filled with disbelief, "This unit is eighty million dollars. Even if it's three times more expensive, it won't be that expensive!"
Lily responded, "The decoration inside is said to be worth more than a billion dollars. That rich man bought it together with the decoration."
Julia was speechless, "So... what does it have to do with me?"
Lily said earnestly, "Don't think that I can't tell that you're still sad! Of course, losing such a handsome and golden husband is a very sad thing. But it's nothing. If old ones don't go, new ones don't come. Just find a better one!"
After hearing Lily's educate—statement, Julia thought she's crazy. She snorted, "I think it's good to be a single wealthy woman."
Hello, I'm not sure when, but I'll be on hiatus these coming days... I hope you still support this novel. Thank you!
