Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 115

Julie’s status was still ambiguous, but as for Ms. Annalise, there was no one in the office who didn’t know of her

All of Mr. Hernandez’s principles seemed to fly out the window when it came to Ms. Annalise

For instance she could just waltz into the CEO’s office and even call him by his first name.

Tina had even caught her arm in arm with the CEO. heading into the elevator The CEO would even ask her what she felt like eating

For a few years before Attorney Abraham showed up, Ms. Annalise was the only woman allowed in Mr.

Hernandez’s office for personal reasons.

If it wasn’t for the news of Attorney Abraham and Mr. Hernandez breaking, nearly everyone in the office would have thought that Mr. Hernandez and Ms.

Annalise were an item.

Even Ms. Bertha, who was rumored to be Mr. Hernandez’s ex-fiancen, never showed up in his office. That just goes to show how special Ms. Annalise was to Mr. Hernandez

With Attorney Abraham and Mr. Hernandez still in the office, if you add Ms. Annalise into the mix,

the situation would simply be too spicy Tina hardly dared to think about it.

So, she casually told Annalise, Mr. Hernandez isnt… isn’t in the office”

“Oh, no worries, I’ll wait for him in the office.” Annalise said, pushing open the office door without giving a second thought to what Tina had just said,

The office door was already open, Tina couldn’t stop her, even if she wanted to

Inside the messy office, Jule was leaning against the desk, with Kieran trapping her in his arms

They were inches apart, and as the door opened, Kieran and Julie both turned to look at the entrance.

With tears welling up in her eyes, Tina looked at Kieran and said, ‘Mr. Hernander. I’m sorry,

Julie glanced at the employees outside the door, their necks craning like a bunch of geese, and tried to push Kieran away, but that just made things look even more suspicious.

“Ms. Annalise you came at just the right time. Mr. Hernandez got something in his eye. I tried to blow it out but couldn’t. You try Julie said taking advantage of Kieran’s confusion to pry open one of his eyes. She puffed up her cheeks and blew a gust of air into Kieran’s eye

Kieran blinked several times, taken aback by the force of her breath Is she trying to murder mel he thought

He suddenly grabbed Julie’s hand, a faint smile on his lips. He whispered, “Minty”

That was the flavor of the mouthwash Julie habitually used

Julie quickly pulled her hand away and turned to give Annalise a friendly, albeit strained smile.

Annalise waved at Tina, then walked into the office slamming the door shut.

Tina was locked out in an instant, and the office outside immediately erupted in excitement.

With the firepower of Attorney Abraham and Ms. Annalise, this was sure to be a spectacle! The way Ms. Annalise slammed the door, she was about to break d

Julie wasn’t sure what the relationship between Annalise and Kieran was, but in her heart, Annalise was always a rival. But she was somewhat thankful for this ‘rivals’ sudden appearance then. Otherwise, there would have been problems.

After storming into Kieran’s office, Julie got straight to the point, I’ve had Karl retract the press release I lied to Karl, saying it was your idea. The news is already out, there’s no need for you to add fuel to the fire with an explanation Gossip will eventually fade, replaced by the latest entertainment news”

Julie told Kieran directly, “I don’t believe Nexus would appeal again without any chance of winning, unless someone suggested it. Besides you, I can’t think of anyone else Kieran, let me go! Even if we cant love each other, can we at least stop torturing each other?”

“Torturing each other?” Kieran didn’t seem to like this phrase, or else he wouldn’t have gradually moved closer to Julie.

Julie backed away step by step, until she was backed against the desk with nowhere else to go.

He trapped her completely in his arms, a tall wall in front of her

He bent down to look her in the eye, and just as they were locked in a stare down, Annalise suddenly burst through the door.

Julie was relieved If Annalise hadnt barged in, she couldn’t imagine what would have happened next, especially since everything she’d done today must have successfully pissed Kieran off

As Annalise angrily slammed the door and glared at Julie and Kieran, it was clear she thought Julie was the third wheel ruining her relationship with Kieran

Julie thought, “if I don’t say something first, Annalise is definitely going to get the wrong idea”

Jule guessed she was probably here because of the news that morning. So, she took the lead and turned to Annalise and said, “About last night, I can explain.”

The reason Julie cared about Annalise was because she knew that making an enemy out of a woman was a really dumb move

But Annalise didn’t seem to buy it, she even bluntly said to Julie, “I don’t want your explanation, I want him to explain it himself!”

After saying this, Annalise looked at Kieran, implying, “When the hell are you going to explain that I’m your sunt?)”

But to her surprise, Kieran looked at Annalise with interest and said, “Let Julie explain!”

Since Kieran had said so. Annalise had no reason not to cooperate. So, she turned to Julie putting on an “Then you explain what exactly happened last night? Were you at the Starlight Haven Hotel with Kieran?”

Jubie nodded

“Was it you who was hugging Kieran last night?7 Annalise asked again.

Julie nodded again and admitted, “It was me, but it’s not what you think

1 don’t want to hear your explanation Annalise said with a cold tone, looking at Kieran haughtily.

It was clear that Annalise was out to make things difficult for Julie

But Jure said with dignity. Whether you want to hear it or not, I’m going to say it!”

After saying that, she recounted last night’s events in a straightforward manner

Annalise just teased Julie for fun, but she didn’t expect Julie to be so straightforward!

Julie explained everything in detail, especially her relationship with Kieran, which she completely cleared up

Annalise just watched her nephew Kieran’s face turn darker and darker

a wronged wife catching a mistress. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Ignoring Kieran’s expression, Julie finished her explanation, then nudged Kieran with her elbow. “Your turn to explain”

While Julie was still standing beside the desk, Kieran was standing next to her He suddenly turned around, pushed Julie back onto the desk, grabbed her chin and forced her to look up at him. He then bent down and kissed her red lips.

At first, Julie naively thought that Kieran was going to explain to Annalise, she never imagined that he would suddenly turn around and kiss her

So, when all that happened, Julie was completely stunned.

He bit her lips as a punishment and only let go after Julie winced in pain from the bite

Annalise took a step back, pretending to be shocked. She pointed at Julie and Kieran and said, “You you two…”

Julie, who had finally come to her senses, wiped her red lips with the back of her hand

Julie glared at Kieran but saw him calmly say to Annalise, ‘Did the Oscars give you an award?”

“Can I finally stop acting?” Annalise put away her delicate hand and looked at Kieran with a smile, “Before you forced a kiss on her, could you have cared about my feelings?”

Julie, who was about to slap Kieran, was suddenly shocked by what she saw

What was the usually angry Annalise doing then?

Kieran and Annalise both turned back and looked at the confused Julie

“She’s my aunt

“He’s my nephew.”

The voices of Kieran and Annalise rang out in front of Julie, but she felt like she had gone deaf

It took her a while to snap out of it. She frowned and asked, “What?

Annalise stepped forward, slinging her arm around Julie’s shoulder like a longtime friend, and explained, “Kieran is my nephew, I’m his aunt, his mother is my sister, and his father is my brother-in- law I really am his aunt. My parents, who are also Kieran’s grandparents, had me when they were older. Anyway, I’m his auntr

Julie refused to believe that Kieran was really Annalise’s nephew. Because since they were in school, Annalise and Kieran were the school’s acknowledged perfect couple

Back then, even though Julie was also a rich girl, the Abraham family was considered as nouveau riche

So, Julie’s pursuit of Kieran was just a topic of conversation for everyone. Everyone thought Julie was delusional because Kieran never denied his relationship with Annalise, although he never confirmed it either

But now Annalise suddenly claimed to be Kieran’s aunt Julie refused to believe that news.

But the fact was right in front of her, whether she believed it or not, it was the truth.

Seeing Julie’s expression, Annalise knew she refused to accept the truth.

So, she laughed and said to Julie, “The reason we didn’t make our relationship public when we were in school was because my nephew had a lot of surtors, and I was there to fend them off. You were the only girl back then who we couldn’t keep away!”
