Daisy saw that Paige was getting physical, her expression dimmed and she reached over to pull her away. “What are you doing?”
Paige loosened her grip, she gave Sadie a long look and turned to sit down. “I’ve seen these clothes on an escort while I was out for dinner yesterday, and today coincidentally, I see the ugliest of our school wearing it, so I’m just touching out of curiosity.”
Sadie’s heart thumped, as she calmed her anger down.
Hearing her tone, she must really not have seen her face last night, and might not even have seen Julian clearly.
Julian’s reputation at Communication University was more than that of any popular celebrity, people upload his photos in the forum every day.
And a bunch of people swooned for him underneath.
If Paige had seen his face directly, she could not have not recognised him.
As she relaxed, she became reluctant to bother with her childish ways. Climbing onto Daisy’s bunk, Sadie put on her headphones and opened the English learning app on her phone, listening while memorising the terms.
Her vocabulary had been meagre during her high school days, and could only understand single terms. For the terms to be grouped together, and further for it to be an article, it seemed quite exhausting.
For Julian to not want to give it to her, it must be more than merely teasing her English proficiency, and there must be some content that he did not want her to know.
Businessmen were known to be cunning, she did not believe him.
Paige saw that she was silent and became more confident, so she said to Riley on purpose, “The eyebrow pencil I bought yesterday is missing, have you seen it?”
Riley shook her head and added that her lipstick was also missing, while saying so she kept looking at Sadie.
The two went on to put on a show, sounding like only their makeup pouch was the only thing left. Sadie pretended that she did not hear it, and exchanged glances with Daisy to keep silent on coordination.
After the afternoon lessons, the police station called surprisingly. Sadie listened to their requests, and called Julian immediately after. She told him that she had to go to the police station and would not be riding along in his car.
To be honest, she kept feeling afraid of going back to ZSB Garden this weekend.
Julian was a grown man, for them to sleep together every day like this, things were bound to happen one day. She did not want to benefit him for nothing.
The police still asked the same question. Perhaps it was because she had read the materials that Julian gave, she answered them without much difficulty.
It was just that Libby had not contacted her until now. Every time she called, her call was always rejected.
After she had finished providing her testimony, she saw Julian’s car parked outside the entrance from afar, and could not help but felt like laughing.
He really seemed to be deep in his role. Sometimes, she could not even differentiate which of the things he told her was real and which was fake.
She got into the car, and his arm reached over naturally, without even the slightest feeling of faking it as he pulled her into his arms automatically. “Where do you want to go for a vacation this weekend? I’ll accompany you.”
Sadie felt a bit uncomfortable. She stiffened as she took his hand away, “Mr Julian, when we’re alone, can you at least give me the slightest respect?”
“What kind of respect do you want?” Julian lowered his head and put his chin on her shoulder, laughing in his raspy voice, “You can suggest, of course, I have the right to vote against it too.”
Then it would be like she had not said anything. Sadie rolled her eyes and didn’t want to bicker with him any further.
Julian saw that she was angry, and his smile grew wider. He rolled the tip of his tongue, lightly touching it against his front teeth and leaned over to kiss her earlobe.
Being so close, any tiny sound that was amplified by the ear canal was extra uncomfortable to the ears.
Sadie tipped her head and avoided his affectionate actions, her pretty face still cold, “Mr Julian, please mind your actions.”
“Alright,” Julian answered lazily, but there was no indication on his face that he would let her go. He had been busy the whole day, and this little thing could not even console him for a bit.
The inside of the car suddenly became quiet. The sounds of his heavy breath became louder and louder in her ear, she could not avoid even if she wanted to. Her body eventually became hot with sweat.
Sadie reached out once again to push him away, but Khalid spoke suddenly, “Young master, a car is following us from behind. Should I get rid of it?”
A car was following… Julian let go of Sadie and turned back to have a look.
There was indeed a car following, but their following techniques were not clever and even had a feeling of being obvious.
