2026-07-13 18:01:58Cameron knew precious little about Julian.
Based on Harvey's few scattered words, it was impossible to discern what kind of person he truly was. The only thing certain was that he and Vanessa had once shared a tangled, complicated past.
Cameron did not accept Julian's violin. "My apologies," he said. "For my fiancée's gift, I'd prefer to select it myself."
"Fiancée?" Julian wasn't surprised; he wasn't the first man to refer to Vanessa that way. But Cameron w

The news reached Julian through Jerry.Night fell. Julian leaned back in his chair, a neatly folded paper plane in his hand. His fingertips pressed against the white paper, as if lost in thought, before he finally spoke, "How could she suddenly fall critically ill and be hospitalized, especially at this critical juncture?""That's unclear, but Aunt Evelyn should be at the hospital right now.""It shouldn't be."Over the years, Evelyn had often fallen ill from longing for Vanessa, but being critically ill and hospitalized at this specific time felt far too coincidental.Suddenly recalling something, Julian looked up, a shadow crossing his brows. "Where's Harvey? Why haven't I seen him lately?"Jerry paused, "He...""Did he go back?""I'm not sure. I haven't been keeping track of his whereabouts lately."It was a lapse in Jerry's duty, and he had no words. Julian didn't blame him. "It's alright, you can go. If there's any

What happened in M was unknown to Vanessa.She couldn't guess if Julian would remain indifferent or try to sabotage things.Several days passed in anxious uncertainty before Adrian's call came through. It had been too long since he'd heard Vanessa's voice. He took a deep breath, trying his best to control his emotions. "Perry didn't lie to me. This really is your number."It was Perry.So many people, those who had been kind to her, those who had promised to marry her, had all ultimately betrayed her. Even Perry."It's my number. What do you want?"After her words, Vanessa calmly and composedly addressed him again, "Mr. Voss.""Vanessa, don't call me that." Adrian's tone was laced with sorrow. "I heard you're getting married. I met the man; he's not right for you. Come back. The family will find you a better match."*Family*, *marriage prospects* – these words, applied to Vanessa, had become absurdities. Uttered by Adrian

Cameron knew precious little about Julian.Based on Harvey's few scattered words, it was impossible to discern what kind of person he truly was. The only thing certain was that he and Vanessa had once shared a tangled, complicated past.Cameron did not accept Julian's violin. "My apologies," he said. "For my fiancée's gift, I'd prefer to select it myself.""Fiancée?" Julian wasn't surprised; he wasn't the first man to refer to Vanessa that way. But Cameron wasn't like those men from the past. "Don't misunderstand," Julian quickly added. "Vanessa's brother asked me to buy this for her.""As far as I know,Vanessa only has a father, who tragically drowned three years ago. Where exactly did a brother come from?"Cameron was truly formidable with words. He spoke little, yet effortlessly demolished Julian's carefully constructed lie.Unflustered, Julian offered a faint smile. "Not a biological brother, no, but a brother she grew up w

Many things couldn't be explained clearly over the phone. Harvey hadn't originally intended to answer Vanessa's call, but after a considerable internal debate, he decided she deserved a heads-up."You met Julian?" Vanessa cut straight to the chase, no preamble. "What did he tell Cameron?"Harvey could never quite read Vanessa. "Vanessa, are you really so concerned about what he told Cameron? I thought you didn't care about Cameron?""What I care about is another person in this world knowing my humiliating past. What does that have to do with whether I care about Cameron?" Vanessa loathed those memories being dredged up, like she was stripped bare once more, revealing the scars on her back, exposed to others' mockery and suspicion.She had no feelings for Cameron, but after so much contact and interaction, it wasn't entirely devoid of emotion. To have her past exposed like that was a profound humiliation."Besides, weren't you the one who pushed me

He wasn't the first to remind Julian that Vanessa was getting married.The first time was Adrian, then Perry, followed by Jerry.She was getting married. What did that have to do with him?“So, what do you want me to do?” Julian maintained his composure, elegant and steady, never one to throw his life away for a woman. Wanting a divorce for her sake had been his absolute limit. “Should I crash the wedding, or make a fool of myself?”“Vanessa was right. What you feel for her isn’t love at all, it’s possessiveness.”Even at a time like this, all Julian could think about was his pride and dignity. He was afraid of loving too much, too deeply in this relationship, becoming the vulnerable one and losing his composure.After just a few words, Harvey knew he had come to the wrong person. Cameron might not be a good man, but for Lily's sake, he wouldn't harm Vanessa, at least not for now. But Julian?

The flight landed. Vanessa received a message from Cameron; with the time difference, it was already the next morning when she saw it. She sent a reply.It was late afternoon back home.Cameron had just left the hospital with Lily, handing her off to the nanny. This time, Harvey was also back. He sat in the car, taking Lily onto his lap. "Lily, do you like coming back to play?""No,"Lily shook her head. "No Miss Brooks, I don't like it."When Vanessa had been her violin teacher, Lily loved to cling to her. Now that Vanessa was Cameron's fiancée, Lily was even happier. Every day, she pestered Cameron, urging Vanessa to move in with them sooner.Cameron got into the car, his eyes gleaming with undisguised indulgence. "You'll see Miss Brooks when we get back. Lily, you need to be healthy to keep playing with Miss Brooks, right?""Yes!" Lily chirped.Cameron chuckled softly, but as his gaze met Harvey's, his smile froze for

The evening breeze had lost its chill. Vanessa, with her delicate constitution, couldn't handle the wind. She emerged wrapped in a shawl, her slender frame like a wisp of paper, her steps faltering in the breeze as she practically stumbled to Julian's car, frantically pounding on the window.Only t

This question was far more useful than any other words.With the most pressing issue laid bare, Julian had a sudden realization. He hadn't shown up for days, yet Vanessa's peace lasted mere moments before news arrived: Adrian had a fight with Julian.Cameron wasn't home.Only Evelyn was there.When

"Miss Brooks is excellent. I want to be closer to excellent people, and I don't see anything wrong with that.""Excellent?"Julian was puzzled. Harvey was even more bewildered by Julian's confusion. "You don't think Miss Brooks is excellent because she was once your admirer. You were the one walkin

Even after waking, she felt little more than a pervasive numbness, as if needles were pricking every bone joint in her body. The slightest movement sent agonizing pangs through her internal organs. She stared blankly at the ceiling. In the hospital room, faint sounds of movement and hushed voices d
