My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL)

Chapter 323 Regained the Initiative

Julian decided to give up on Caroline, so he made another call to dismiss the guard outside Eric's

house. "Operation canceled. You don't have to protect Miss Hughes anymore."

Julian said to Emelia after the phone call, "She asks for this."

Emelia suggested, "Can we just call the police to bring her out of Eric's house?"

Julian said while rubbing his nose, "We don't have solid evidence to bring Eric to justice, so it's

inappropriate for the police to search his house, especially since he's a foreign citizen."

"Fine," Emelia responded.

Julian said, "Now we can only count on the hit-and-run driver."

To their disappointment, David called to tell them that the driver took a bribe.

The driver had a son, living with his ex-wife, and gave the bribe to them. But the boy had forgotten the

carrier's name and look, he only remembered the person carrying a few boxes of cash.

Without a bank account, they had lost the lead in finding him.

Julian looked out of the window in frustration as Emelia embraced him in a gentle hug to keep him

calm.

When Julian came to realize that Emelia was worried about him, he pulled Emelia into a hug. They

looked silently at the darkness outside the window.

It was a rare moment after the big fight.

They never expected this on such an occasion.

They were emotional at this moment, thinking that they should cherish each other in this fast-changing

world.

Julian fantasized about their happily ever after once he got back with Emelia. His dream kind of came

true except for the happily-ever-after part.

Julian felt sorry for Emelia, but this might be a good thing.

They were unlikely to separate after overcoming difficulties together.

After a while, Emelia broke the silence, "Actually, I have an idea."

Julian asked softly, "What?"

Emelia looked up and said, "You once told me that Winnie McCarthy, his sister, was a very important

person in Eric's life, and he insist his sister was not a homewrecker. Then why don't we start from

Winnie? We find the proof about her deliberately being the homewrecker. That might stimulate Eric and

make him give himself away."

After Julian figured out what Emelia planned to do, his face registered both surprise and joy. He cupped

Emelia's cheeks with his hands and gently lifted them up. "Emelia, you are a smart girl."

Julian focused on how to find Eric's criminal evidence and missed this point. So, that was why they had

to deal with passive aggression.

However, Emelia's plan regained the initiative.

Once they distracted Eric, they could turn back the tide.

Emelia was glad that Julian approved her proposal. "Let's play his game."

“We should go to the media and spread it out. Eric will be furious after seeing this false accusation."

Emelia continued, “But we still have a long way to go. First, we need to ask Winnie's classmates for

more useful information to

prove she got close to your father for a purpose.”

Julian replied to her, "I'll have David dig it up."

Emelia nodded. "Let me do the writing.”

She was a writer, so she was confident about her solid writing skills.

“Okay," Julian never doubted her writing skills. Then, he called David.

After the call, Julian thought of another thing and he said, "I should call my dad to ask him more details

about how he met

Winnie, and whether she had done something suspicious."

They know nothing about Gerhard's history, not even the horrible criminal case until Randolph exposed

it to the public.

Julian only remembered Gerhard had cheated on his mother with a college student and they almost

divorced.

Emelia was nervous when Julian said he was going to call Gerhard because they didn't update

Gerhard's situation to Julian.

Julian sensed her nervous energy and asked, “Anything happened?"

Eric was aiming at Gerhard, who was the mastermind behind that incident.

Emelia had not admitted, "Yeah, Gerhard owed a huge debt abroad and was kidnapped by the

creditors. They wouldn't let him

go if we didn't pay it off."

Emelia explained, "Grandpa, Arthur, and I decided not to bother you with this.

Grandpa was raising money, and Arthur said he could help.” NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Julian knew they were doing it for his own good, but that wasn't the thing he most worried about. "Then

I won't get any

information from him."

Emelia said, "There's one person we can go to."

Julian had the same idea. "Randolph Sullivan?"

Emelia nodded. "Yeah, he's a close friend to Uncle Gerhard. He definitely knows."

“But I don't know if he will help." Emelia shifted to be concerned because Julian put Randolph in jail.

Julian thought for a moment and said, “Randolph isn't stupid. He knows which side he should take."

Julian continued, “I'll contact him and visit Randolph in the prison."

Emelia nodded. Although Julian hadn't fully recovered yet, this was urgent. He had to visit Randolph

now.

They branched out into two teams. While Julian inquired about Randolph in jail, David sent spies to

look for Winnie's classmates

for further investigation.

Grandpa Hughes was responsible for raising money.

Heather lived in Grandpa Hughes's house for better protection.

Returning from the hospital, Grandpa Hughes beckoned Heather downstairs and asked her about the

exact amounts of

properties she had.

Heather was puzzied. "Dad, why are you asking me? Isn't Julian going to pay off his father’s debt?"

Heather knew about Gerhard's case, but she didn't bother to ask when Grandpa Hughes went to find

Julian.

And whether Gerhard was alive or dead has nothing to do with Heather.

They hated each other after Gerhard had an affair.

Grandpa Hughes was infuriated, tapping his walking stick to the floor. He said sternly, “Julian is feeling

under the weather. We'll take care of this".

Heather rejected him. "Dad, that's Gerhard's business. Why should I help him? I save that money for

my retirement life.”

“If you didn't make a fuss, how would that girl commit suicide?" Grandpa Hughes wouldn't spare

Heather, “Isn't this your fault?"

Heather pursed her lips in silence. Grandpa Hughes continued, "You have to put some thought into it.

Julian is the only family

you can count on in the future. If you treat him and Emelia better, I think they know what to do."

“If you made stupid decisions and humiliate us, then mind your own business!"

Heather's face turned pale after the severe reprimand.

She gave a rough number of her properties to Grandpa Hughes and was ordered to cash them in.

Grandpa Hughes cashed in everything valuable aside from his house.
