Ditched the Cheater, Pregnant by Mr. Righ novel Chapter 303

chapter 303 Nothing to Hide

He turned to look at Quinn. “Quinn, we can make it tomorrow. I’m free anytime.”

“Really, there’s no need.” Quinn said. “It’s just a meal with friends. I’d be upset if you left.”

Julian echoed her. “Stay and cat with us.”

Jess had no other choice but to agree. “Alright then.”

“Wait a minute!”

Chase, who had been completely ignored this whole time, suddenly spoke up.

Finished

He stared at Quinn in utter disbelief. “How could you… you’re having dinner with Julian? How close are you two, exactly?”

He then shifted his gaze to Julian, his voice faltering. “S–Seven…”

Julian nodded calmly. “We’re that close.”

Something inside Chase’s head went blank, like it had just exploded.

What did that mean?

“I’m courting-”

“Julian!” Quinn cut him off hurriedly.

Julian paused mid–sentence, looking at her in confusion. He didn’t understand why she was stopping him.

He was pursuing her. That was the truth.

Besides, she was divorced now. There was no reason to hide it anymore.

Quinn shook her head slightly.

She didn’t want to drag Julian into the messy, tangled history she had with Chase.

Chase watched the silent exchange between them, and a sharp, isolated feeling washed over him. It was as if he were the irrelevant third wheel.

But… that couldn’t be right.

Since when did Quinn grow this close to Julian?

Suddenly, the words “big shot” flashed through his mind.

Maddox had told him that. He said the person was someone he could never afford to offend.

Could that person… be Julian?

But that is impossible!

Julian has always kept his distance from women, living a clean, unentangled life.

And with his family background, how could he ever take an interest in Quinn?

No, no. I must have gotten it wrong.

Finished

He opened his mouth, his voice trembling. “What were you saying just now? Courting… courting what?”

I must have misheard. I had to.

Julian glanced at Quinn once more.

This time, he didn’t hesitate. He said it directly, “I’m pursuing her. I, Julian Sterling, am courting Quinn. Do you understand now?”

Something inside Chase’s mind blew up completely.

I must have misheard. I absolutely must have.

Or maybe this is all just some twisted fantasy.

It isn’t real.

How could this be happening?

How?

He couldn’t believe his own ears, his own eyes.

But there it was, plain as day–Julian was standing right in front of him.

This was the man he’d always looked up to. No matter how hard Chase tried, he could never catch up.

Julian stood at the very top of the pyramid, looking down on everyone else.

How could a man like him….

What did he just say?

Pursuing?

Pursuing Quinn?

A man like Julian Sterling, pursuing my ex–wife?

No, that isn’t it. It couldn’t be.

Why would Julian ever go after a divorced woman?

It is absurd.

How is that even possible?

Chase stammered, “Seven, have you forgotten? She… she used to be my wife. She’s divorced…”

Finished

“I haven’t forgotten a thing,” Julian said coldly. “And for that, I should thank you for agreeing to let her go.”

He knew…

He knew Quinn was divorced, and he still said he was pursuing her?

Has Julian lost his mind?

With his status and standing, why would he pursue a divorced woman?

“Seven…”

“Are you leaving or not?” Julian fixed his gaze on him. “Got something else to say?”

Having long been in a position of power, just one sentence from him sent a chill down someone’s spine.

Chase could hardly stand up to that pressure.

Yet he refused to back down, his voice bitter. “How could you possibly like her…”

Clearly, Julian had no interest in discussing this with him.

Chase wasn’t worthy of hearing his reasons.
