Chapter 23 Unconcerned, Heartless and Ruthless
Chapter 23 Unconcerned, Heartless and Ruthless
Emelia didn’t want to face Julian ’s unaccountably angry look at all. Anyway, she had made it clear, so
she didn’t stay any longer and turned to leave.
Julian pulled her back in anger and pressed her against the car indignantly. The distance between
them was so close that they could smell the scent of each other, familiar and yet strange. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
When they looked each other closely, Julian froze.
Emelia was really a beautiful woman, all her features were just in such a perfect harmony.
She wore make up today, making her look more attractive than usual with the help of eyeline.
Julian didn’t know what’s wrong with him. When they weren’t divorced, he always looked at her with
disparagement. He hated her very much especially when he thought of her scheming against him.
Unexpectedly, after a year of divorce, he now thinks she has a thrilling charm.
Compared with Julian, Emelia was calm, and her frown showed her impatience.
“Mr. Hughes, what are you doing now? I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for you to press your ex-wife like
this.”, she said with a glint of mockery. Hearing that, Julian suddenly recovered and looked
embarrassed. He opened the door and stuffed her into the car, “Get in!”
Seeing this, Emelia didn’t resist any more. After she fastened her seat belt, she turned and looked out
of the window.
He was still so overbearing and arrogant that he never cared about her feelings.
Julian took a bottle of iced mineral water from the car refrigerator and handed it to Emelia, “You can
use this to ease the pain.”
Emelia took it and said, “Thank you.”
Julian started the car and drove away. They didn’t speak to each other. The air in the car fell silent for a
moment.
When the car came to a stop at a red light, Julian turned his head to Emelia. She was looking down at
the wound on her arm, with delicate eyebrows slightly wrinkling.
He thought she was frowning with pain, so he couldn’t help asking, “Are you okay?”
He surprised himself after this question came out. When did he become so proactive?
He then made excuses for his concern. The injury on her wrist was caused by his sister, and his
concern was taken for granted.
His concern made Emelia’s look more serious. She replied indifferently, “Yes.”
This physical pain was really nothing compared with the profound heartache he once gave her.
She frowned just now because she felt fretful at the thought of sharing a car with Julian, and she was
annoyed that she didn’t take taxi to the hospital by herself.
What Emelia said made Julian do not know what to say. At that moment, green light lit up, so he could
only concentrate on driving.
After driving for a while, he asked again, “Do you know Ms. Salkowski?”
It was obvious that Emelia and Kelaina had known each other quite wall from what just happened,
which actually surprised Julian.
Emelia reluctantly replied, “Yes”.
In fact, she didn’t want to talk to Julian. They didn’t know each other very well after all.
Emelia was praying for Julian to shut up quickly but he still asked, “How do you know each other?”
Emelia closed her mouth without answering.
Last time they saw each other in Tymers Entertainment. If he wanted to know what she was doing, he
could've just asked.
Obviously, he was unconcerned, heartless and ruthless.
