164 Stay Away From Me!

Julia instructed the housekeeper to clean up the entire room. It would be better if the housekeeper used as much insecticide as she could. Julia did not want to go home these days. Instead of home, it was safer to stay in the hotel.

Sitting in the business car, she pressed the screen with hatred, as if her phone was her sworn enemy.

She then texted Lily, "I knew it! I can't be with this man. Bad things always came after I saw him."

She Continued with, "It really kills me to stay with that jerk!"

Back then, Lily asked Julia why she insisted on divorce since her husband was shockingly hot. Julia replied that she would die young. Lily was a kind of ditzy, so she didn't decipher her hidden meaning.

"He shouldn't be hanging around in front of me. Why should I give him more time? How could I be so stingy? I can give him a lot of time. But why can't he go and pester someone else!"

She really couldn't understand. She wasn't the only villain he had ever seen, so why did he only haunt her?

After complaining, she didn't expect Lily who was on holiday, to text back immediately. But soon she got her message.

"Oh, dear. President Ainsworth confesses to you?"

"I think a man like President Ainsworth should be similar to a handsome tragic hero in romance novels. He must have some reasons that he has to be cold to you. In fact, he still cares about you secretly."

"..."

After reading Lily's response, she replied with annoyance.

"Whose side are you on? Tell me, did that jerk bribe you?"

Lily: "Of course not. I was wronged. You must believe me, Your Highness."

"Apology accepted. Act normal."

Lily: "To put it bluntly, President Ainsworth is no different from those chicks who love you but always be sarcastic. Have you ever heard that couples who bicker and argue actually love each other more? That sounds just like you."

Love each other?

That man was always cool and collected. It was hard to imagine him being like that.

Lily: "But since he once hurt my Julia, I suggest that he should worship your photos, bathe and change his clothes every day and put on three incense sticks before he is worthy to talk to you. "

Julia, "..."

Worship her photos? Bath and change his clothes? Three incense sticks?

That was the ritual for paying respect to dead!

She replied with angry face and Horns emoji. But only to got another text from Lily.

["Sorry. But from what you told me, President Ainsworth is actually a good man. On one hand, he doesn't have any scandals. On the other hand, didn't he let the Ainsworth group speak for you and prove your innocence last time? Except for proving your innocence last time, the Law Department of the Ainsworth Group had never interfered in such things before."

"Sweetie, your husband saved you from a bad reputation. That sounds cool, doesn't it?"

Julia was very speechless,she replied.

"You are sitting on the fence, neither choose me or Ford."

Lily: "That's hard to do."

Lily: "You know I am soft before good—looking person. Even my boyfriend's beautiful face can't make me more resistant to handsome faces. I still can't speak ill of a handsome guy like President Ainsworth"

Julia, "..."

She knew that pretty people always won. In fact, she had been falling head over heels for his beautiful face before.

However, the fact that he did not love her did not make her angry. After all, you couldn't make others love you.

Back then, it was all her acting silly just to gain his attention. He had the right to choose to stand by and watch.

At that time, she did not understand that her feelings had nothing to do with others but with herself.

After all, there was no need for him to pity her, for whatever she had done.

Just like she would not love someone out of pity. Neither would him.

He did not ask for her love. Nor did he ask her to do anything that touched him. It all came from her own willingness.

There was no reason for him to respond to her feelings. She didn't want to be an emotional blackmailer.

'I liked you. I had done so many things for you, then you should respond to me and love me.'

What kind of ridiculous logic was this?

It was a pity that she was crazy and could not get out of this predicament.

Her current resistance was entirely out of fear of the unknown. She could not see through Ford. She did not know what his motive was.

She was deeply in love. She knew the feeling. She did not believe that the person who didn't have any feelings for her would suddenly fall in love with her without any reason.

Therefore, she wanted to live her life peacefully. The last thing that she needed now was a romantic relationship.

...

Julia got her cover shot in the morning and came to the broadcast room in the afternoon as a guest. Because of her beauty and a good sense of humor, she had become a popular star voice of live broadcasting for all the brands. Many brands offered her long—term contracts for live broadcasting online, but she rejected them all.

She never forgot that she was an actress. Her job was to interpret the story and shine on the screen.

The live broadcast was scheduled to end at 4:30 PM. After that, she was invited to a hotpot restaurant's opening party. At 4:30 PM, Julia said goodbye to the audience before the screen.

Everyone shouted on the bullet chatting surface.

"Don't leave, Julia. Stay here for a while longer, please. Julia looks amazing today."

Facing these enthusiastic viewers, Julia even forgot that her rumors were still going around. Because most of the people watching the live broadcast were kind middle—aged women or young girls, they were very nice to her. Coupled with the support of her fan club, the enthusiasm of the audience was heightened.

After the live broadcast, Marvin said excitedly in the business car, "Boss, as long as we stick with it, we would get a lot of opportunities. You are invited to take part in several TV series and movies now. After I have reviewed them and arranged the filming schedule well, please have a careful look."

.....

On the spacious balcony on the top floor.

The man wore a suit that clearly did not match his temperament. He casually loosened his tie and unbuttoned his shirt. One of his legs landed on the gray concrete step. He stuck the cigarette between his lips and the smoke floated into the sky with the wind.

A voice message came. He tapped on the playback button.

"President Brown, I got the news. What are you going to reward me?"

Steven's attractive hoarse voice sounded, "Stop yapping. Cut into the chase."

"Tonight, Julia will show up for a hotpot restaurant's opening party. This is a great opportunity to get in touch with her. I've already known the address and the time was at 6:18."

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I just found out."

Steven directly threw his suit to the ground and pulled off his tie as he walked. The damned suit almost suffocated him to death.

Hitting him where it hurt. His uncle knew that he hated all the suits.

The tie flew down the stairs and landed in the hands of a girl.

The girl's eyes lit up when she saw Steven coming down from upstairs. This unruly man looked truly handsome.

"Excuse me, please." Steven looked at the girl in front of him impatiently, but he still tried his best to maintain his manners.

The girl had many boys after her in her life. Now she wanted to flirt with this handsome man and said sweetly, "What if I say no?"

Steven was a little angry. He flicked the ashes from his cigarette and narrowed his eyes, "Move. Stay away from me."
