Chapter 371 I Know You Won't Let Me Be Sad
Emelia thought that he had said earlier that he was very busy. She looked up at him and asked, "Are
you done with your work?"
Julian glanced at her and said nothing.
He wanted to say that in fact he came out between two meetings.
It was because that Julian was worried about letting her stay alone with Marvin.
Although Marvin had declared that he was married, Julian still felt uncomfortable.
Seeing his silence, Emelia knew that he was not done with his work, so she persuaded him, "Go and
do your work. I'll go to see Grandpa and go back to the Capital in the afternoon."
Julian was full of displeasure and hurt. "Don't you want to stay for one night?"
"No..."
With her word, Julian's face turned completely cold. She could sense that he was angry.
But what could she do?
Although she had accepted Frances' help to nurse her body, she still didn't know whether she could
recover or not. However, Julian was obviously waiting for her.
She didn't want him to wait for her, because she didn't want to make him wait in vain.
It would be a good thing if her body could be cured.
But if she could not recover, the relationship between them would become awkward again.
Therefore, she could not continue to have an ambiguous relationship with him. Last time, Julian went to
the town to look for her. Although she could not control what he did, she could restrain her own
behavior.
Therefore, she had made a decision before. She decided to detour Riverside City and fly back to the
Capital as soon as she met Marvin.
Looking at the gloomy expression on Julian's face, Emelia felt very sorry. She thought that in that case,
she should just put all the cards on the table.
"Julian..."
She whispered his name in a low voice and looked elsewhere. She said softly, "You'd better not wait for
me."
"It's my own business. Bite me."
Maybe Julian was really angry, he said that in a brusque tone, and then stormed out.
Emelia sat there in a daze, watching his lonely back as he gradually walked away. She felt a sharp pain
in her chest.
She really didn't know that Julian was so persistent.
No, it should be said that he was stubborn.
In the past, she always felt that he was ruthless, but for the time being she felt that he was extremely This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
affectionate.
Emelia mocked herself, "Girl, what exactly do you want him to do? When he was ruthless to you, you
were sad. When he is affectionate to you, you are also sad. Why are you so picky?"
After silently sitting on the sofa and drinking a cup of coffee, she got up and went outside to take a taxi
to visit Grandpa.
On the way to the Hughes Manor, Julian's expression of injury and departure constantly appeared in
Emelia's mind.
In the end, she silently took out her mobile phone to return a ticket she had booked and called Vincent
again. She decided to stay in Riverside City for one night and go back next day.
Vincent had no objection. Whatever she did, Vincent would support her.
After visiting Grandpa, Emelia went to the market on her way home to buy a lot of vegetables. When
she got home, she began to cook.
When she finished cooking a sumptuous dinner, night had completely fallen.
Emelia didn't tell Julian that she didn't leave. She felt that he might regard her as a fickle person if she
told him that she would stay instead of leaving.
Moreover, Julian was still angry. Maybe even if she showed her goodwill, he might ignore her.
After thinking for a long time, she took out her mobile phone and took a photo of the delicious dishes
and posted it on her Instagram. Julian would definitely see it. If he came back for dinner, it meant that
he accepted her gesture of goodwill.
If he didn't come back and didn't respond, it meant that he was still angry.
As soon as Emelia finished posting the photos, Nina liked her photo and commented in a second,
"Aren't you going back to the Capital? You haven't left yet?"
Emelia was speechless.
How was she gonna reply to Nina?
While Emelia was still hesitating, Nina left her another comment. "You definitely can't finish all the
dishes. Wait for me! I've just arrived home. I'll change my clothes and go to eat with you now!"
Although Nina had moved to the Capital, she had some activities in Riverside City those days, so she
was also in Riverside City.
Things happened in the Hughes Group.
David knocked on the door of Julian's office. He went in and asked cautiously, "Boss, do l need to order
takeout for you tonight?"
David didn't know what happened to his boss. When Julian came back, he said that he had to work
overtime at night, and it looked like he wanted to work overtime until dawn.
"Yes." Julian responded with a poker face.
David heard the word and quickly left.
Julian threw aside the pen in his hand and picked up his phone irritably. He thought that Emelia really
had no conscience.
He was so angry that he had to leave. But Emelia never called him once throughout the afternoon, nor
had she sent him a message.
Julian didn't know if she had returned to the Capital safely.
Julian was still worried about her, so he wanted to send her a message to ask her. However, he saw
the notification from Instagram telling him that Emelia just shared a post.
Julian immediately clicked to view her post and saw the photo.
As he saw it clearly, he was overjoyed. He realized that Emelia didn't go back to the Capital.
The photo was obviously taken in her residence in Riverside City. He was very familiar with the dining
table and tableware. And the dishes on the table were all his favorite.
Julian turned off the computer without thinking. He got up and left the office with his coat and car key.
He told David, "You don't have to order my takeout."
"I won't work overtime tonight."
David and people of CEO Office looked at Julian, who was leaving quickly. They looked at each other
and did not know what had happened.
As soon as Julian got into the car, he remembered that he saw Nina's comments under the photo. He
immediately took out his phone and called Nina.
No way! The meal was obviously made for him, so he won't let Nina go.
As a result, Nina, who had just changed her clothes and was about to head out to Emelia, answered a
call from Julian. Julian told her not to go to Emelia's place.
Nina was speechless.
What an overbearing man.
However, in the end, Nina gave up the idea of going. On the one hand, she didn't want to be the third
wheel. On the other hand, she knew that Julian and Emelia really needed a chance to be alone.
Thus, Nina had to return home and made a herself a bowl of instant noodles.
Emelia was just about to send a message to ask Nina if she would come for dinner. She waited for a
long time, but Julian didn't contact her. She thought that he might still be angry with her and didn't want
to talk to her anymore.
If Julian didn't come, she couldn't finish the dishes, so it was good if Nina would come.
If Julian wanted to ignore her, it would be ok. It would be best if he hated her so much that they would
never contact each other again.
However, before she could send the message, she heard the sound of the engine rumbling from
outside. It was Julian's car.
As soon as Julian entered the room, he pressed her against the door. His lips, still cold from the
outside, covered hers. In the warm room. Emelia's entire body shivered from the excitement, but the
next second, Julian showed his fiery passion.
Emelia could do nothing but cling onto his shoulder, allowing him to do whatever he wanted.
The kiss, which he had spent his complex emotions, finally came to an end. Julian felt both physically
and mentally comfortable. Holding Emelia in his arms, he raised his hand and gripped her smooth chin
as he proudly said, "I knew that you couldn't bear to make me sad."
Emelia raised her hand and pinched him. He was becoming more and more bold.
Even if she had provoked him with that kiss back in the town, what about this time?
He kissed her without giving her a chance to say anything. It seemed what she said about breaking up
with him couldn't do anything to him.
Emelia raised her hands and pushed him away. She hurriedly turned around and said, "Come and have
dinner."
Julian smiled with satisfaction as he washed his hands and sat down at the dining table.
They had barely eaten much when Emelia received a picture from Nina.
Emelia felt irritated the moment she looked at it, because...
She was on the news again. Couldn't the media in Riverside City let her go?
After all, she had just returned to Riverside City and had been photographed after staying outside for a
short while.
Even someone like Emelia, who was open-minded, could not help but wonder if someone was keeping
an eye on her all day long. And she felt that maybe someone hoped that something would happen to
her and the person could spread rumors about her.
The news was about the meeting she had with Marvin at the cafe. In the photo, she was smiling
happily. The title was just ridiculous— The sought-after screenwriter seemed to be in love with the A-list
actor.
With a depressed look on her face, Julian took her phone and looked at it.
After that, he returned the phone to her grumpily and ordered, "Don't worry about it. Let Marvin handle
it himself."
Marvin just had a meetup with Emelia and caused such an outrageous rumor. Of course he should deal
with the aftermath himself.
Emelia knew that she couldn't deal with the matter, and it was probably wrong for her to say anything at
that time.
Marvin called and he sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble. I didn't expect
these media reporters to have no conscience. Except for this meeting in private, we usually met each
other on work occasions, and only for a few times. How could they say that we are in love?"
Marvin was also helpless.
"It's okay. We have nothing to hide. Don't let it affect your relationship with Zella."
Emelia did not mind, but she was afraid that Zella did not know the truth and would doubt about their
relationship.
"Zella?" Marvin laughed sheepishly, "She's having so much fun in reading the made-up stories about
us, as if the person who has rumors isn't her husband."
Emelia imagined the scene of Zella's amused face when she saw the news and found it extremely
cute.
Marvin promised again, "Don't worry. I'll issue a statement later to clarify your innocence."
"Ok."
Emelia believed that Marvin would deal with it.
After a while, a photo was posted on Marvin's Twitter. The picture was of two red marriage certificates,
and there was a sentence from Marvin, "I've been married. I met Miss Emelia Jones that day purely for
work. Please do not believe in rumors and do not spread them. Also, stop slandering Miss Jones again.
She is a screenwriter and a friend that I admire very much.
"In addition, I'm finally got married at this age. Please show some understanding to an old man who
just wants to safeguard his rather fragile marriage. Thank you."
Marvin's tweet caused a sensation on the internet.
A popular celebrity who had been keeping a low profile suddenly announced that he was married. It
was really a heated topic.
Secondly, the tone of Marvin's statement was rather sincere and humorous, completely different from
his usual impassive and reserved persona. That really surprised Marvin's fans and some other people
who knew about him.
