My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL) novel Chapter 396

They were now husband and wife in Julian's heart but not in Emelia's heart. So, Emelia opened her mouth and bit Julian's lip, making him let go of her in pain.

"We need to talk. "Emelia took a step back, and her breathing became a bit erratic.

Julian looked pained. Emelia reminded him, "You didn't use to be like this. You were calm and restrained, steady and reserved."

In other words, it was a little too much for Julian to kiss her regardless of the time or the occasion.

Julian defended himself, "I changed precisely because I acted in the wrong way."

Emelia observed angrily, "But you can't be like an octopus and cling to me all the time!"

Julian didn't expect Emelia to describe him as an octopus. He didn't know whether he should be angry or laugh.

After a while, he explained, "That's because I'm insecure about our relationship. If you could say something sweet to me, I wouldn't stick to you like an octopus."

Emelia looked at him suspiciously. "What do you want me to say?"

She inwardly didn't believe Julian's remarks at all.

Julian's lips arched with a trace of a smile. "For example, you can tell me you love me very much."

"You'd better do some work now." Emelia put the documents lying on the bedside table into his arms.

Even in those years when she was deeply in love with Julian, she had never said such affectionate things.

Emelia wouldn't wear her heart on her sleeve but expressed her love through actions.

Suddenly it occurred to Emelia that she had expressed her feelings before. When Julian had mocked that she was a greedy woman for wealth again and again, she had said to his face that she loved him. But he didn't believe it at that time.

Julian whispered in a husky voice, "Mrs. Hughes, if you love someone, then you should speak it out."

To state her different opinion on this matter, Emelia blurted out, "I think it's better to do it rather than saying it."

But Emelia regretted it as soon as she said it and wished she could have bitten her tongue.

What she just said was too suggestive.

She was trying to express that it was better to make the other happy by actions and care about each other in daily life, rather than just saying sweet words.

On hearing that, Julian immediately came over and hugged Emelia. "My darling is right. We should do it more than say it."

Emelia hastily explained, "No, you misunderstood me. What I meant was…"

Julian interrupted her, "You don't have to explain it. I know you're shy."

Emelia covered her face with her hands feeling so embarrassed.

Soon after that, Emelia and Julian were busy with their own work in the ward.

Julian was sitting on the bed dealing with business while Emelia was writing the script at the computer desk.

The VIP ward, equipped with advanced facilities, was indeed more convenient and comfortable. And it was especially suitable for business people to handle work in time.

Emelia had just written a few lines when she received a video call from Vincent.

Vincent wanted to check if Emelia was fine and discuss the casting of the new TV series.

Emelia had finished more than half of the script. Vincent had read her first draft of the script and thought no modifications were required. Hence, he had planned to prepare for filming after the New Year.
