Three years of loving him, three days to erase myself from his world novel Chapter 182

He stared at it, the harsh words she had just spoken echoing incessantly through his mind...

Julian pressed his lips together and gripped the earring tightly.

Just then.

His phone rang again.

This time, it was Isabella Gates.

Julian furrowed his brow, considered ignoring it, but ultimately answered the call.

Immediately, Isabella's dissatisfied voice blasted through the receiver.

"Julian, did you really take Clara to that club?"

"Do you have any idea what you're doing? You can't just act out like this!"

"And Clara is unbelievable. How could she say such things? She has zero situational awareness, making a scene like that regardless of the setting."

"..."

Julian lowered his gaze, opening his palm to stare at the butterfly earring resting there, his dark eyes unfathomable.

He said nonchalantly, "Clara has indeed been giving me the cold shoulder lately!"

Isabella choked on her breath, genuinely surprised that the rumors were true.

Clara really had some nerve!

"It seems Clara thinks she can just spread her wings and fly!"

"And you're a fool!"

"Everyone in our circle is gossiping that you two split up!"

"Mrs. Lawson even called me a moment ago to ask if it was true, and she didn't sound happy about it."

After venting her frustration, she took a more serious tone. "...Mrs. Lawson is quite fond of Clara."

"Mrs. Lawson is hosting a banquet tomorrow evening."

"I don't care what is going on between you two right now, but tomorrow night, you have to bring Clara."

"This isn't just a casual social event. Mrs. Lawson represents the Lawsons, and their partnership with Lowell Industries is deeply intertwined. So, no matter what, you must maintain that relationship."

"..."

Julian's mouth twitched. "You called me just to say this?"

"You can't stand Clara. What about later?"

Isabella hesitated, unhappy with his impenetrable attitude.

But she couldn't say right now that using Clara was only a temporary measure until Beatrice Hamilton got together with him, which would naturally solve all these problems.

Isabella held back her temper, finally snapping, "I'm only doing this for you!"
