So he was here for Wells's parent-teacher conference.No wonder Vivienne had time to take Wells around today."No." Sera's tone was indifferent. "I'm here for something else.""This is a school, and an expensive one. What business could you possibly have here?" Julian's gaze darkened. "You wouldn't be doing something behind my back, would you?"He reached out and grabbed her arm.A sharp pain shot through her arm, and her brow furrowed."Let go."Her tone was cold, her eyes full of frost."What, does my life have to revolve around you and your son? Can't I have matters of my own? If I come to Wells's school, I can only be here for him?"Julian lowered his eyes and met her bright gaze.The chill in them was something he had never felt before.It was colder than the way she would look at a complete stranger...The moment she finished, Sera shook off his hand with all her strength.Just as she was about to leave, Julian strode forward and blocked her path.His voice was low. "You still ha

"Of course. You only ever call Vivienne. Why would you think of me? You only reach out when you need something, before and now!"Sera's tone was cold and flat, her voice very low.She was about to sit up when Julian reached out, gripped her shoulders, and pressed her firmly down onto the bed."Sera, it's your own fault.

"This had better be important, calling me this late.""Mr. Blackwood, we've found Hazel Grant. She's reportedly in New York, and I have her phone number. Should I send it to you?""Yes. Send it over.""Right away, sir."After the call ended, a message notification popped up on his phone.He glanced at it, then dialed the number, but no one answered.Maybe she's asleep.Without a second thought, he hung up.Meanwhile, in the bedroom next door.When Julian came out of the bathroom, he saw Sera's phone on the nightstand with its screen lit up. By the time he got closer, the call had already ended.Same old habit. She always keeps her phone on silent.They used to argue about it all the time, because she was never reachable at critical moments.The phone was locked with a password, so Julian couldn't get in. He ignored it and went to sleep.The next morning, when Sera woke u
