Chapter 29

After about half a minute of eye contact, Julie finally smiled at Kieran, and said, “Mr. Hernandez, your

eyes are playing tricks on you. You’ve mistaken me for someone else.”

With that, Julie turned away, no longer looking at Kieran.

However, she did not expect Kieran to suddenly lean forward, his hands bracing on either side of the

chair, trapping Julie inside. His incredibly handsome face suddenly enlarged in front of Julie.

“Really? Weren’t you the one who just accepted a proposal last night from Elliot, the new CEO of Ray

Group? We just saw each other last night, how could I have mistaken you for someone else?”

Kieran was here to stir up trouble. Julie was sure of it now.

Across the table, Jeremy’s face was looking a little unsightly

feelings for a living.

But Julie didn’t bother to explain.

Instead, she glared at the man who was closing in on her, gritting her teeth and hissing out through

clenched teeth, “Let go!”

Kieran very obligingly let go, then hooked the corner of his mouth, looking at Julie, and concluded,

“After all, you’re the woman who’s slept with me for three years; I wouldn’t mistake you for someone

else.”

This was too much. Julie stood up abruptly and threw a cup of lime juice in Kieran’s direction.

But she didn’t expect Kieran to suddenly step forward and pat Jeremy on the shoulder, saying, “Good

luck, Mr. Ford; you might have a tiny chance against Elliot.”

Jeremy fell silent.

What chance? He was hoping for further cooperation with Elliot from Ray Group, but instead, he came

to steal Elliot’s woman. He might as well wish for his company to go bankrupt sooner.

Julie watched as Kieran stepped forward, and the whole cup of lime juice, without a single drop

missing, splashed all over Karl’s stoic face.

Kieran turned his head to see Karl’s tight face, his hair still dripping.

“Aren’t you embarrassed?” Kieran said to Karl with a calm gaze, pulled a table napkin from the side

and gave it to Karl, then took Karl and left the

restaurant.

Without thinking, Julie grabbed her bag and followed.

Before Kieran’s car started, Julie pulled open the door and hopped in.

A bag hit the man’s head, and she started accusing Kieran, “What’s your deal?”

Back then, when she silently left his world, she never mentioned his name. But now he was telling the

whole world that he was her ex–husband.

Julie didn’t want her peaceful life to be disrupted again. All she wanted now was to live a quiet life, so

why did he keep bothering her?

After watching Julie glare at him with her beautiful eyes, Kieran suddenly asked, “Is blind dating your

job now?”

He always had such a low opinion of her.

Caught off guard, Julie retorted, “What’s wrong with blind dates? What does it have to do with you? I

hope you can pretend not to know me in the future, even if I sleep with someone else, it has nothing to

do with you!”

“How can it have nothing to do with me?” Kieran suddenly turned his head, closing in on Julie..

Julie backed up, pressing her back against the car door.

Kieran’s deep eyes locked onto her panicked face. His long fingers forcefully gripped her chin, and his

low, cello–like voice calmly sounded, “You’re using the positions I taught you to serve other men;

shouldn’t I charge you for that?”
