There He Is Again, My Ex-Husband (Julian and Amelia)

Chapter 409 From Julian Hughes to Honey

Julian had known the attitudes of the Longerich family, thus comforting Emelia calmly, "I know what

you're worried about. It's true that your families don't like me, but we have to face this sooner or later.

Escaping from this problem does no good." Julian could tell from Vincent's indifference that he was not

welcomed by the Longerichs and they didn't treat him harshly only because of their education for being

well-mannered.

"Well, we can talk about this later." Emelia tried to put this matter off.

She hadn't planned to take Julian back to the Capital to meet her folks at all. After all, they would have

had no association with each other if Julian hadn't pretended to lose his memories.

Julian knew at once that she didn't want to address the problem but he would not force her. It would be

long and hard work for Emelia to marry him. Even if Emelia was ready to accept him again, it would be

impossible if the Longerichs disagreed with the marriage.

When they arrived at the Riverside City, the driver was at the airport to pick them up.

On their way home, Emelia received a phone call from Harry.

Through the phone, Harry said excitedly, "Emelia, my agent told me you recommended me to be the

leading actor in Mr. Vincent's new TV show. Is that so?"

Julian recognized it was Harry on the other side of the phone and suddenly felt uneasy. He had

planned to remind Trevor not to let Harry act in this new show but it had come to nothing since Trevor

hadn't felt well then, and after that he had been busy dealing with the McBrides in Grafstin, thus

forgetting about all about it. Everything seemed too late since Trevor had already contacted Harry.

Emelia had no ideas about Julian's little plan, she answered Harry in a businesslike manner, "Yes, it

was me. I think you're suitable for the character."

"Thanks a lot," Harry said gratefully and joyfully, "I've finished my filming and I'll be back in Riverside

City today. Why don't we have dinner together? It's on me."

Emelia refused politely, "Thanks for your invitation but what I did was not a big deal. It was just a

recommendation and it's the audition that decides whether you can act in this show or not."

"It doesn't matter if I can get this job. I just want to thank you for your recommendation and

appreciation." Harry insisted.

Sitting by Emelia, Julian heard this clearly. Discontent, he grunted heavily and talked into her ear on

purpose, "Haven't you promised me to visit our grandpa tonight?"

Emelia turned to look at him in surprise. When on earth did he mention visiting grandpa tonight? What

he had said was that he would stay in the office tonight to finish the work left several days before.

While Emelia was still bewildered, Harry asked disbelievingly from the phone, "Emelia, is that Julian by

your side? No way! I thought you two would never get along well with each other!"

Harry's voice was loud out of shock. Hearing what he said clearly, Julian was as mad as hell and

thought to himself furiously. What the hell did he mean that they would never get along well with each

other? He was a good-for-nothing! God knew how he could be successful in the show business if he

hadn't had that pretty face.

However, Julian was too angry to realize that being an idol, there was only one thing that Harry needed

to do, that is, to stay pretty.

As for Emelia, what Harry said snapped her back and she said hastily, "We two are…This is a long

story. Anyway, you don't need to treat me to dinner. Maybe we can save that after the audition. I am

quite busy now, so bye." Emelia hung up before Harry could answer. She was afraid he would say

something that annoyed Julian.

Putting her phone back, Emelia talked to Julian seriously, "Julian, you know it's inevitable to deal with

different kinds of men because of my job. Don't tell me you never interact with women in your career."

She was fed up with his discontent when every time she worked with men.

But Julian retorted confidently, "If you mind, I can stop doing business with every woman client."

Speechless, Emelia thought, "Stop doing business with every woman client, seriously? Just in order to

retort me?"

Julian then continued, "So can you stop working with men?"

"Of course not," Emelia answered without any hesitations. Even office workers have to work with the

opposite sex, let alone those like her working in show business. He could say whatever he wanted or

met whoever he wanted, but she was not a big shot like him.

Julian let out a grunt and stared at her in displeasure. Who gave her the courage to treat him like this?

But on his second thought, he found out it was he himself that gave her the privilege. He loved her so Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

much that he was willing to spoil her.

Clenching his teeth, he pointed out, "You set Harry's contact name as Haz?" When Harry called her, he

glanced at her phone and saw it was a call from "Haz". At first, he wondered who was "Haz" and it

turned out to be Harry.

Filled with jealousy, Julian thought the nickname Haz was too intimate and as if there had been

something affectionate in this contact name.

But from the perspective of Emelia, Haz was just a name to avoid unnecessary troubles. She couldn't

set the contact name as Harry Zink because it would get her into trouble if others saw her calling the

superstar Harry. It would be better to give him a nickname since he was so famous. Besides, it was fine

to call your colleague by nickname.

Therefore, Emelia answered calmly, "Is there anything wrong?"

Emelia didn't get the point, so Julian tried to be straightforward, "I think this nickname is unsuitable."

"How come? Why I use this nickname is to avoid troubles" For God's sake, she didn't think it improper

at all.

"Yeah? What about the contact name for me?" Julian didn't want to explain anymore so he just took her

phone to check on her phonebook. He quickly found his contact name in the list of recent calls—just

simply "Julian Hughes", which made him feel more jealous at once and he said, "Why do you call me

by my full name? Am I such a stranger to you?"

Emelia finally got his meaning and asked him in disbelief, "You are not telling me that you think Haz is

too intimate."

Though Julian didn't speak a word, Emelia knew from his expression that his answer was a yes.

Smiling sweetly, she joked, "Ok, how about changing your contact name into big shot Julian? Big shot

Julian and superstar Harry, you two are going to be good partners."

Julian said bitterly, "So now you are making fun of me?"

"Why. Or would you like me to call you little Jules?" Emelia was still playing jokes on him. But she

broke into laughter finding it ridiculous for others to call him Jules. After all, people around him would

only call him Mr. Hughes respectfully for he had been the chairman of such a big company since he

was young.

Feeling annoyed from her laugh, he typed on her phone while thinking, "Wanna make fun of me? Take

this."

Thus, he changed "Julian Hughes" into "Honey".
