Love’s Cunning Ruse ( Mr.Kieran And Julie )
Chapter 35
The hard impact sent Julieâs head smashing into the steering wheel, her forehead hit the horn hard, causing a piercing sound.
Ignoring the wound on her forehead, Julie quickly lifted her head. This was Adelineâs Ferrari!
Julie unbuckled her seat belt, opened the car door, and hastily checked the damage to both vehicles.
She couldnât believe that the car she had hit was a black Rolls Royce Phantom Pinnacle Travel Collectorâs Edition.
Talk about bad luck!
Julieâs heart dropped like a stone.
She took a deep breath. The car in front had already rolled down the window; now she could only rely on her sincerity to win sympathy.
With that thought, a bitter smile squeezed onto Julieâs face as she approached cautiously and went around to the driverâs side.
However, when she saw that the driver was Karl, Julie fell apart.
Her first instinct was to run.
However, Karl had already recognized her and politely called out. âMs. Abraham?â
If Karl was in the car, then who was in the back seat? She didnât even need to guess.
This wasnât the route Kieran would take home. The reason she had chosen to rent a house here was to avoid bumping into him, since even seeing his car reminded her of their past that she desperately wanted to forget.
But even if it was out of the way, today, she inevitably bumped into him, or rather, his car.
Seeing Julie standing blankly outside the window, Karl kindly reminded her. âIâll call the insurance company.â
Julie stood there dumbfounded, only when Karl dialed the number did she suddenly remember. âThis car isnât mineâ¦â
âUsing someone elseâs car to hit me, Joyce, youâve really done it this time.â Kieran took the opportunity while Julie and Karl were talking and opened the car door.
His magnetic voice in the dark night was like a fine, aged red wine and was soothing to the ear.
Julie glanced at Kieran. He was wearing her favorite white shirt, and his handcrafted Italian shoes shined brightly; only his usually meticulous hair looked a bit messy.
He reached out, tugged at the tie around his neck, then casually closed the car door and leaned against it.
A strong smell of alcohol overwhelmed her.
Kieran was drunk, and this was the first time Julie had ever seen him like this..
Because the man she knew was a man with astonishing selfâcontrol and tolerance for alcohol. Julie had known him for many years and had never seen
him drunk.
After getting drunk, he softly called her by her nickname, Joyce.
Sorrow was greater than heartbreak, and fading love was most afraid of rekindling.
Julie didnât know how long she could stand looking at Kieran like this, so she turned to look at Karl and said, âThis car isnât mine; Iâll call the owner to
come over!â
She knew she could only trouble Adeline with this. Whatever she owed Adeline in the future, she would repay with everything she had.
Julie took out her phone and found Adelineâs number, which she had just saved before leaving.
Just as she was about to make the call, a slender hand suddenly snatched the phone from her hand and accurately handed it to Karl.
Adelineâs happy voice came from the phone. âHas Ms. Abraham safely arrived home?â
Karl responded, âNot very safeâ
Looking at Julie standing still, Kieran suddenly grabbed her hand and asked, âWhere do you live?â
Julie subconsciously glanced in the direction of her home, then immediately realized she shouldnât have and quickly looked away.
However, Kieran still caught this small movement.
He grabbed her hand and walked towards her home.
