He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 545

Scarlett genuinely felt a deep sense of gratitude.

"That actually helped a lot. Thank you, Julian."

Julian forced himself to control his suddenly erratic heartbeat. He gently patted her shoulder, and after a brief, tender hug, they pulled away with practiced ease.

Seeing her swollen eyes, Julian didn't make a fuss. Instead, he smoothly pulled a small bottle of premium eye drops from his pocket and pressed it into her hand.

"This brand is great for irritation."

Scarlett took it, a strange flutter echoing in her chest.

"...Why do you just casually carry this around? Did you know I was going to..."

No one had ever anticipated her needs like this. In her entire life, this level of microscopic care was entirely unprecedented.

Julian offered a soft smile, declining to answer directly. He simply reached out, affectionately tapped the bridge of her nose, and casually draped an arm over her shoulder.

"You must be starving after a two-hour workout. There's an incredible, authentic Sukiyaki place right around the corner. Let's go."

Scarlett's eyes widened. "!"

She had literally just watched a food vlogger review that exact dish on TikTok the other night and had been craving it ever since.

Was Julian secretly reading her mind?

Honestly, she was starting to wonder if he had somehow bugged her phone. How else could he know her moods, her preferences, and her random cravings with such terrifying precision?

After holding it in for half the walk, Scarlett finally caved.

"Julian, I have a slightly unhinged question to ask you."

Julian glanced down. "Shoot."

Scarlett: "Did you figure out my passcode and go through my phone while I wasn't looking? Otherwise, how do you..."
