Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 108

“I’ve got the right to think about whatever I want, no matter whose car I’m in!” Julie stood up straight, telling Kieran loudly, “I can think about anyone |

want!”

“So, who were you thinking about when you were with Elliot just now?” Kieran raised an eyebrow, looking at her with interest. Although she didn’t want to admit it, most of the time she was with Elliot, she was thinking about Kieran.

Because whenever she was with Elliot, they would always end up mentioning him.

But when the question came directly from Kieran, Julie answered seriously, “I was thinking about you. You promised me a feast tonight, but now I have to go home hungry.”

Julie just said this offhand, not realizing that her words sounded surprisingly flirting when they came out of her mouth,

Kieran seemed to like Julie’s tone. He casually put one hand on the steering wheel, looking at Julie. I thought since I helped you out tonight, you’d be the one treating me.”

“I also helped you win a lawsuit. We’re even,” Julie said, getting out of the car and heading in the direction of the cake shop.

Kieran also got out of the car, locked the door, and followed Julie, calmly saying, “Even? That might not work.”

Julie turned around and asked, “Why not?”

“1 paid you for helping me with the lawsuit. I helped you, but you didn’t pay me, Kieran said confidently.

Julie saw again the shameless side of this man. After being taken aback for a few seconds, she responded, “Did I ask you for help?”

“No. I was just imposing myself.”

Julie had thought that Kieran wouldn’t let her off easily, but surprisingly, he admitted his self-imposition so readily that she was left speechless

Julie walked into the cake shop, staring at the dazzling array of cakes. She didnt know what flavor Ivan liked.

Kieran told the clerk, Tll take a passionfruit mousse cake. Please pack it up.”

Julie didn’t speak. The clerk quickly packed up the cake.

However, Kieran didnt seem to have any intention of paying Julie, dressed in an evening dress, had come straight from the passenger seat. She didn’t have her purse with her. The reason she was just concerned about Karl’s whereabouts was because she had given her purse to Karl before entering the banquet hall

Clearly, Kieran had only retrieved her cell phone from Karl but had forgotten her purse.

The clerk, who had already packed up the cake, looked awkwardly at Julie and Kieran Julie glared at Kieran, but Kieran pretended not to notice.

-Twenty-four dollars. Although the clerk said this to both of them, her attention was on Julie, as she was closer to the cash register.

Julle had promised to buy a cake for Ivan, so she whispered to Kieran, “Could you pay for

“Pay with your body Kieran said expressionlessly. He looked as if nothing had happen? I pay you back tomorrow.”

Julle knew this hypocrite wouldn’t be convinced so easily, so she turned to the clerk and said, “I’m sorry, I don’t want the cake anymore.”

“Huh?” The clerk looked confused at Julie and Kieran. She suddenly thought the handsome man

The clerk took a closer look at Kieran before realizing, pointing excitedly at him. “You ked familiar.

that Mr. Hernandez from Simpo Co., right?”

Julie, who was about to leave awkwardly, saw that the clerk recognized Kieran and a sty smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She pulled Kieran to the cash register. “That’s right, this is Mr. Hernandez from Simpo Co! He’s the one buying the cake”

In her interaction with Kieran, Julie had also learned his shamelessness. After saying this, she deliberately bumped him with her shoulder. “Mr. Hernandez, hurry up and pay! You didn’t forget your wallet, did you?”

Kieran chuckled. He casually pulled her into his arms, looking at her with Hernandez. It sounds too formal.”

an ambiguo..

“Easy

ere. We’re not at work now, so don’t call me Mr.

Julie was speechless. He said it as if he was trying to imply that there was some secret between them. She silently shrugged off his arm and gave him a glare.

Kieran quietly took out his wallet and told the clerk, ‘Pack that one too.”

He was pointing at an ice cream cake. Julies favorite Julie had to admit, she was drawn to the ice cream cake the moment she walked in. The clerk turned to pack the ice cream cake, then took the bank card from Kieran.

-Julie stood silently next to him, looking at the vanilla-flavored ice cream cake. Her stomach growled again.

“Mrs. Hernandez, is there anything else you want?” Kieran suddenly turned around and asked Julie.

Julie was about to answer when she saw Kieran’s loving gaze. What did he just call her? Mrs. Hernandez?

Her pupils dilated instantly. This unexpected title was like a bullet to the heart, catching her off guard.

The clerk was also startled by Kieran’s title. Everyone in the cake shop turned their envious gaze towards Julle. However, Kieran put on an innocent act, turning to the clerk to explain, “Sorry, I misspoke. She’s not my wife.”

The clerk nodded, giving an I understand look. Wasn’t this just adding fuel to the fire?

Julia had a strong impulse to kill right now, but Kieran handed her the packed ice cream cake and with the now free hand, he gently touched her hair saying in a doting tone, ‘Don’t eat too much now. I’ll cook for you when we get home.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

This was getting more and more inexplicable Julie simply grabbed the cake and bolted. She forgot her heels were so high, and did not foreter doorstep Carrying the cake, she suddenly toppled over. Luckily,

Kieran who was nearby, reacted quickly and grabbed her However Julie still inevitably

crashed into Kieran’s arms

Oddly enough, despite her head resting on Kieran’s chest, the cake in her hand was intact Julie really was a foodie, willing to sacrifice herself to protect

the cake

okay Kieran asked looking down at the woman in his arms

Her foot injury had just healed. He shouldn’t have let Daniel prepare high heels for her today.

Kierans concern was genuine. Julie wriggled uncomfortably out of his arms and ran out the door without saying a word

“Slow down! I’m not going to bite you” Kieran said, chasing after her Seeing her hop and skip, she probably hadn’t hurt her foot

When Julie reached the car door, she pulled it only to realize that Kieran had locked the car So she stood awkwardly in front of the car, waiting silently for Kieran. As soon as Kieran unlocked the car, she immediately opened the back door. But before she could get in, Kieran’s hand blocked the door.

“You either drive or ride shotgun.”

Julie remembered the last time she drove, she not only hit Kieran but also racked up a pile of debt, which she hadn’t paid off yet! How could she dare to drive again?

And Kieran looked serious. If she didn’t sit in the passenger seat, he clearly wouldn’t start the car han must’ve been waiting for them at home now!

After weighing the options. Julie finally sat in the passenger seat clutching her ice cream cake

Fastening her seatbelt, Julie suddenly felt as if all the embarrassment had vanished, as her nostrils were filled with the sweet scent of the cake Kieran got into the driver’s seat and started the car

Julie turned to him and said. “I’ll pay you back for the cakes tomorrow after I get my purse back from Karl Without waiting for Kieran’s response, she

eagerly unwrapped the cake.

Kieran glanced at Julie Seeing her satisfied expression, he thought she was cute full of energy just like when he first met her.

She took several satisfied bites Kieran, like Julie had been hungry all day Seeing her enthusiastic eating, he felt a bit peckish too. While waiting for the traffic light, Julie scooped a spoonful of cake, ready to take a bite, when a fluffy head suddenly appeared next to her, and then.

the whole spoonful of cake in Julies hand

She looked at Geran with a hurt expression Perhaps Kieran had distracted the shop assistant, who had only given them one spoon. After Kieran had used the spoon, should she continue eating or not?

Julie held the spoon, glaring at Kieran discontentedly
