Chapter 485 Mind Your Own Business
Meanwhile, Julia was trying to head straight back home as she came to the research center in secret without seeing anyone. Besides, Richard was staying in the research center right now and she didn’t want to risk him seeing her.
She had a noticeable baby bump recently. Even if she was wearing loose clothes, people would notice the changes in her body when the clothes clung to her body. She didn’t want her parents to find out she was pregnant.
Her father might be a stern man on the surface, but he spoiled her nevertheless. If the older man ever knew she was pregnant with Richard’s kid but also broke up with him, her father would never let Richard off.
As Julia turned to leave, her father appeared out of nowhere and called out to her, “Julia.”
Taken by surprise, she turned back to face him and found him standing in the dark corridor. The man might be getting on in years, but he was standing firm and tall.
Her lips quivered before she hung her head low and addressed the man, “Dad.”
Julia’s father began to walk toward her and eventually stopped before her. He watched her with a serious expression, but his tone was gentle. “You’ve been living outside and not coming home for a while. Your mother is missing you very much and hoping to see you at home.”
Julia hung her head low in shame. She couldn’t possibly go home and risk her parents finding out she was pregnant as she was experiencing morning sickness lately.
She forced a smile at him as she nodded. “I understand, Dad. I’ve been busy recently. I’ll come home once I deal with my work.”
For now, she could only give him a perfunctory response.
The man didn’t notice anything wrong with his daughter, so he nodded in understanding before he turned to leave.
Julia saw him off until he was out of her sight before she turned on her heel. As she walked forward to the entrance of the research center, she noticed a slender figure standing there. Even though the person wasn’t facing her, she recognized it was Richard at one glance.

The readers' comments on the novel: Right Person, Wrong Time
What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
