★★★ Joshua cast an unpleasant aura before mentioning, “Looks like I’ll have to lock every room in this villa so you won’t even bother to wander around and make bold decisions.” “If doing all this makes you happy, then do it. But I am in no mood to fight with you. Sit down and talk,” Julia said professionally, causing Joshua to raise his eyebrows suspiciously, but he sat down on a seat opposite Julia, doing as he was told. “What is it?” Joshua asked as he leaned his back on the chair. His towel had its job properly and did not cause any blunder. Still, Julia thought he should have put on proper clothes before coming down. “I have written a few clauses that should be included in the contract and foremost I want you to read it,” Julia said while a smile lingered around her lips, accompanied by serenity. “You are very serious about the contract. Impressive,” Joshua said. His eyes halted a brief moment on her face before he looked at her hand that was holding the paper. He took it and
★★Julia and Joshua had breakfast together, after which Julia told Joshua that she had to go out for some shopping and it was a lie, as her destination was to meet the doctor for that DNA test.She met directly with the lab doctor who was recommended by Julia's old family doctor, who had retired, yet a voice from Julia made it possible. Julia was afraid to approach the lab directly. Therefore, it was the only way to achieve this key result.She held her hope high of not getting what she was fearing. In case that mishap happened, Julia's shoulders dropped, and she released a breath because she did not know.Looking down, depressed, she stepped out of the hospital when she bumped into Timothy, who was rushing inside, but when he felt who was the person beside him, his nerves pulled in tension. Immediately, he kiboshes his steps with a thud in his heart and turned his head.Julia, on the other hand, was very aimed in her way. Although some things you could not overlook even if you w
★★ Julia went to the room where conferences usually took place. She knocked on the door twice before going inside. However, she was stunned to see the sight there. The manager was sitting on the main seat where her father used to sit and the manager had a woman on his lap during the meeting. The entire room shifted its gaze to the petite woman standing at the door. The clothes she was wearing had class as they checked head to toe, but was she entering to give an interview? Everyone had their thoughts. Someone thought Julia was another personal toy to the manager. Except for one who recognized who this girl was. The manager pushed the girl off his lap and got up from his seat, but his face was covered with disgust. And he asked, “Who are you?” He pretended not to recognize Julia. Julia could see her appearance drove him up the wall, and it was enjoyable. She stood silent for a brief moment while she let him show her cold eyes that would not fit with the surroundings. The manager tu
★★The manager looked menacingly at Julia, observing her face, which showed determination, but to no avail. He went on to say, “You have earned the right to be in that position, but there is no point in staying there when there is nothing to do.”Julia turned her eyes to the man, broadening her mind to understand the meaning of his words. Though he looked relaxed, which shouldn’t be the case if you knew your job hung by a thin rope. However, he was unperturbed.“Could you explain why I have nothing to do sitting here?” Julia asked, mulling over her beliefs as the manager was still covetous for the seat.“I’m sorry to hear that your stepmother doesn’t value you.” The manager didn’t pass up the opportunity to taunt her as he shoved both hands in his pockets with the rest of the information.“The majority of this company's possessions were sold off and the remaining will be disposed of in the coming days. It is not an office but a ruin. I also believe you don’t know that your momma
★★ Julia got out of the cab and the massive building in front of her eyes gave her a grandeur vibe. The building was black and infused with grey, perfectly going with his taste and the looks; grim and gore. Julia rolled her eyes when she once again gave him a compliment for no reason. She had been allowed to go in by the guards without being asked, and while she could see people were in their lavish cars entering and leaving. Hence, for a moment, she had thought of getting rejected from the gate, but not today. Her eyes wandered as soon as she stepped into the reception area. The silence was heavy around her. She pursed his lips at the thought, did Joshua inform anyone of her arrival? Otherwise, the receptionist simply won't let her in without registration. At that moment, a person jumped right in front of her eyes with a big smile on his face as he chimed, “Thank you very much for stepping into this office. My boss is eagerly waiting for you.” Julia could not help but chuckle as
★★★Joshua was tempted by her flushed skin and misty eyes. He could be such an explicable man he didn’t know until he found himself describing Julia.His hand went to her lips, and his thumb swept over her swollen lips. They were red as blood, sweet as nectar.Julia followed his hand, so her eyes moved from his face to those fingers on her lips. She swallowed the urge of taking his finger in her mouth. Such a ridiculous thought! Julia felt like smacking her head.At the time Joshua said, “Are you waiting for the auspicious time to speak? You didn’t let me touch you. I am not in a jovial mood. Therefore speak, sweetheart.”Julia abruptly shifted her eyes to his face, taking a step back to make the distance. Who knew what sort of thought would come into her brain if she stayed close to him?However, she was not notified to roll. And the outcome was again she was pulled in his arms and reprimanded, “Do not move until you are told!”Saying this, Joshua placed a kiss on her cheek. J
★★★ “Why are you crying, Stacy? If you are not going to tell me, how will I know? Furthermore, I am at the hospital. Could you please make it first?” Timothy said, but he couldn’t hold back his irritation over the melodrama Stacy invariably pulled out, even if a small thing happened. Moreover, why did not she put some brain that he was a human too and had a situation? It was enough for him to resolve issues for her. “I'm aware that my tears have become a problem for you, but I don't have anyone to talk to about what I'm feeling now. If you want to show your back to me, then I will have no choice but to commit suicide,” Stacy Pitifully said, sniffing in between her words. She was sitting in her room while there was a bundle of mess around her, which she did in rage. Even the extortionate dresses had been ripped off just because she thought Julia touched them. “Have you gone crazy?” Timothy bellowed, his face reflecting his annoyance at the pressure Stacy was putting on him while he c
★★★“What's wrong with that? Haven't you got your picture taken with that motherfucker, Benjamin? I didn't see you being uncomfortable. Why different with me?" Joshua asked Julia in a serious tone. And this had been going on in his heart since the morning when he saw the picture. Although it was not intimate, he knew that the man had deliberately done that. The picture was clicked to make him jealous.“Where does this come from? It was never my intention to photograph him. It was a ceremony and I cannot hide, especially when I was there to attend it,” Julia said while snuggling her face into the back of his arms, making sure not to stumble because she could see nothing.“Then make sure you are interested to get picturise with me,” Joshua told. Simultaneously, they entered the lavish resort away from media and photographers.“Is this any sort of competition?” Julia could not help but inquire about his behavior. This was a thing that immature people do, extremely childish.“No, the
