Chapter 14 Having a Bad Luck
After he hung up the phone, Ezra lazily proposed by his side, “Since you are worried about Emelia play hard to get to continue to pester you, then you might as well simply cut off her thoughts by marrying Yvonne, Emelia will be completely out of the picture and your mother will stop.”
Far from not being able to hear the teasing and ridicule in his words, Julian gave him a chilly look and then turned around and got in the driver´s car and left.
Ezra shrugged and then got into the car and left.
For matters of love, those involved cannot see as clearly as onlookers.
Emelia, who took a taxi and left, was not in a pleasant mood. She felt a little suffocated. It was not that she was uncomfortable because of seeing Julian and still thinking about him. She was a little bit irritated by his arrogance.
Did he think she still cared for him when he spoke to her in that tone?
How ridiculous.
She had indeed thought that she would be unable to live without Julian once, but later found out that her life was very fulfilling and happy during this year.
It turns out that anyone in this world can live without others.
Emelia´s work as a scriptwriter work does not require her to show up in the company every day. She only needs to attend some meetings or some occasions when she is required to elaborate as a scriptwriter. In other time, she can finish the scriptwriting at home.
The next morning Emelia took some time to get to the shopping mall, planning to buy birthday gifts for Grandpa Hughes.
She actually didn´t want to get involved with Grandpa Hughes after the divorce, but he had been in contact with her for the past year. He wanted to make sure that she was fine when she was alone abroad. Emelia didn’t have the heart to completely block him from contact.
He had a bad cervical spine and he turned on the air conditioner all day in summer. Emelia was thinking about buying a scarf for him to protect his neck.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
When she was visiting the men´s clothing store, she happened to run into Julian again.
Emelia felt she had to go to a fortune-teller. She was really having a bad luck.
Julian was dressed in a formal black suit, mature and elegant, which could easily make women´s hearts flutter.
He was also here to pick out a birthday present for grandpa, whose birthday was a while ago, but he was away on a business trip.
And every year in the past, Emelia would prepare gift for grandpa’s birthday on behalf of Julian, so Julian didn´t need to worry about it. This year, he had to buy presents by himself.
Grandpa Hughes called and told him to go over for lunch today. He thought it would be more sincere to bring a gift.
Originally, he had another appointment at noon, but grandpa said he needed to come over no matter what, so he had to go.
Emelia ignored Julian and kept her head down to look at the scarves.
While Julian walked around and came to her side, he said mockingly, “Some people´s taste was just as bad as ever.”
Julian didn´t know what was wrong with him. When he recalled that Emelia had dinner with Harry Zink last night and now she appeared in the men´s clothing store, the first thought came to his mind was that she was buying something for Harry.
Anger rushed up in his heart, and his words became harsh without restraint.
Emelia pursed her lips slightly, and looked down at the brown plaid scarf in her hand.
It seemed suitable for Grandpa Hughes, but Julian just scorned her arbitrarily.
This reminded her that when she married Julian, she had helped Julian to pick his daily outfits at first, but she was ruthlessly rejected by him for the so-called poor taste.
In fact, Emelia believed that her taste was not bad, because Nina had asked her to help select dresses for the awards ceremony several times, and her looks had received loads of thumbs-up from her fans.
It’s simply because Julian disliked her completely, so he was being picky in every way.
