Follow Me novel Chapter 8

“I’m not done yet.” Julian grabbed her hand, pressed her back onto the seat, and crouched over to kiss the corner of her lips. “All right, now you can continue.”

Sadie stunned. When she came back to her senses, she kicked and roared, “Julian you asshole!”

“I’ll take that as a compliment.” Julian licked the corner of his lips and smiled devilishly. “If you still can’t pay the money by next Monday, I might bring down the orphanage.”

He then let go of Sadie, sat back, and lifted the divider. “Khalid, drop her off.”

Sadie had never been humiliated like this. She flung an open palm at Julian. “You scoundrel!”

Julian caught her arm and unhurriedly bowed to kiss the back of her hand. “This pair of hands shouldn’t be used to hit people, especially not me.”

Sadie cowered a little, angrily pulled back her hand, turned around and got off the car.

“Bump!” She flung the door close and stormed towards the school without looking back. She wasn’t paying attention while she was in the car just now, thus she didn’t notice the driver had drove the car back to the same spot.

The black Rolls-Royce started its engine and went off to the street.

Julian opened his tablet and said indifferently, “Send two men to protect her, and arrange to get her a full body check-up.”

“Understood.” Khalid sighed silently. He felt he didn’t know what was in Julian’s mind anymore all of a sudden.

Julian could actually force Lady Sadie to stay by threatening her with the orphanage, but he didn’t. Instead, he agreed to let her go if she paid the money by Monday.

What was wrong with him? But it was indeed rare to see him smiled today. Ever since the cruise accident, he had always been expressionless for the past six years.

He got Sadie out of the Chambers family and doted on her for seven years, planning to marry her abroad as soon as she got older. Who would’ve expected the Chambers family to suddenly snatch her back and the accident happened soon after.

“Look into the guy from the Newman family. I want to know the reason he picked Sadie,” Julian said with a cold tone.

Khalid nodded. He was about to ask Julian if he wanted him to look into the cruise accident too when he saw the smiley expression on Julian’s face through the mirror. He immediately swallowed his words.

He would avoid ruining Julian’s mood since he seemed to be quite happy today.

That accident had been a thorn is his side. No one should bring that up before they got Lady Sadie back.

Sadie rushed back to the school just in time for the second class of the day. There wasn’t much attendance since there weren’t many prerequisite classes in junior year.

Sitting in the class, she couldn’t pay attention to the class at all. Her mind was loaded with thoughts about why Julian gave her 500 million, and what was noted on the check.

She was too agitated back then to take the time to notice. She licked the corner of her lips subconsciously, her brows furrowed deeply.

She didn’t seem to appall much when Julian kissed her. At least not as much as when she appalled Otto. This was ridiculous.

Julian was basically a stranger to her since they had only met three times.

Finished her classes half-heartedly, Sadie went back to the dorm. When she got back, Daisy dragged her to the corridor and complained, “Why didn’t you tell me Julian was sitting behind us? It was embarrassing.”

“I didn’t know it was him,” Sadie said innocently.

Daisy rambled on. She laughed heartily when she talked about how Julian trolled with the students who asked him for his signature earlier that day.

Sadie forced a smile and dragged Daisy back to take their afternoon nap.

She didn’t have time to visit Dean Esme at the hospital in the afternoon, so she asked Raya to go on her behalf.

Raya knew about the operation and told Sadie there was a businessman who paid for the bills, his only term is for Sadie to work in his firm after she graduated. Sadie didn’t suspect anything upon hearing this.
