Chapter 720

“I’m not going.” Julian unfastened Kiki’s seat belt and flung the car door open. He glared at her and snarled, “Get out of the car! Right now!”

Hurt flashed past the depths of Kiki’s eyes, but they vanished in the blink of an eye. She said stubbornly, “I’m not getting down!”

When she saw Julian reaching out to push her out of the car, she seized the chance to grab his arm and said in a pleading tone, “Julian, please, just help me this one time. If my dad found out that I came here alone for a check-up, he’d beat me to death!”

But things would be different with Julian around.

He was rich and powerful. Even if she really was pregnant, her father wouldn’t dare say anything.

Rather, he might even find it a good way to get a foot through the door of the Fulcher family.

Yet Julian refused to help her, and his mind was made up no matter what she said.

Firstly, he had no obligation to help her.

Secondly, he didn’t want to do anything that might make Diana misunderstand him.

Thirdly, he wanted to shake Kiki off and see Diana as soon as possible.

However, staying in this stalemate with Kiki like this would only delay his meeting with Diana.

He wanted to settle things at lightning speed. “Get out of the car first.”

After getting out of the car, he called Diana as he walked on, wanting to tell her to wait for him at the carpark.

As long as Diana appeared, he believed Kiki would be clear as to who was the rightful owner of his front passenger seat.

That would stop her from lettering him.

However, a stranger picked up the call instead. “Please hang on. She’s in the midst of a check-up right now.”

A check-up?

Julian’s heart began thumping heavily in his chest. “What is the check-up for?”

Was she really feeling unwell?

With that thought in mind, his hands moved faster than his brain and he swiftly parked the car and headed straight to the hospital.

If it weren’t for Kiki yelling out loud behind him, he would have completely forgotten about her existence.

He quickly ran back, opened the car door and let Kiki out of the car.

“Obstetrician and gynecologist?” Kiki was about to speak when she heard Julian ask the person on the phone back in a tensed voice.

“Yes,” the other person replied. “She’s Dr. Stanley’s patient, and I’ve been instructed to give her special care. I was also told someone might call her, and so I’ve been waiting here with her phone. Come over, quick. Ms. Winnington really needs you right now.”

Her words sent Julian’s mind into utter chaos.

“Is she ill? What is she sick with?”

They hadn’t met for one whole month, and Diana called him to the hospital in such a hurry. Had she really contracted a severe disease?

The person over the phone refused to share more. “Ms.

Winnington said that she wants to tell you in person. Just come over quickly.”

The more mysterious it was, the more worrisome it got.

Julian’s footsteps became flustered as every single possibility of the disease Diana might have contracted flashed past his mind. He didn’t even dare to call Vans as he stumbled his way to the obstetrician and gynecologist department.

Kiki had never seen Julian acting this way.

Despite not having met for a long time, Julian was rumored to be as impenetrable and indestructible as a mighty mountain.

He wasn’t supposed to be like this, so fragile and vulnerable just because of one phone call.

She couldn’t help but show her concern. “What’s the matter? Is there anything I can help with?”

No, no one can help him.

He had to hear it from Diana in person about her condition before he could calm down.

The thought of Diana and her unknown condition made Julian’s face turn even colder, to the point that it made Kiki start doubting whether the person who secretly bought her breakfast as a sign of an apology-whether that tender side of Julian was merely a figment of her imagination.

Otherwise, how could he possibly glare at her with such a terrifying look in his eyes?

It was as if he would throw her from the roof should she dare delay him any further!

She instinctively shrunk back, “Julian, I…”

I was just concerned for you… Were her unspoken words.

Yet, she didn’t dare to complete her sentence. She cautiously followed behind him, afraid something might happen to him given the state he was in. ’

She didn’t expect him to be headed in the direction of the obstetrician and gynecologist department!
