Julian shook his head and said, "Honestly speaking, I really don't know it. I don't know what he intends to do, either."
It appeared that Julian was not lying and Emelia stopped giving him hard time.
Julian said seriously, "Privately, I don't want Maisie to contact Ezra at all. The environment around him is too complicated. Ezra's father, though he is seriously ill now, is difficult to deal with. And Mrs. Diana. She's normally a dignified and elegant lady, but actually ruthless."
"Maisie will be in trouble if she has a strong connection with Ezra, and her son is found by the Cantillos."
Emelia was a bit nervous about Julian's words and hugged him tightly. She murmured in his arms, "You go talk to Ezra. Tell him to stay away from Maisie. I hope she and her son will be fine."
Maisie lived a wretched life. She was born in a patriarchal family that valued the boy but took no account of the girl. She had suffered from injustice since she was a child. Finally, she fell in love with a man who turned out to be fickle.
Now the only light in her life was the child. Emelia dared not think that some bad things would happen.
"I've said everything that Ezra should know. But we're not him after all. If he decides to do something, we can't deal with it." If Ezra had taken his words to heart, he would not have been in love with Maisie.
Julian knew early that Ezra was interested in Maisie and he repeatedly warned Ezra to stay away from her. But at last, things still became awful.
"I hate Ezra!" Emelia raised her head from Julian's arms and scolded Ezra indignantly.
Julian coaxed, "Well, then I'll let him appear less in front of you in the future."
Emelia punched Julian in annoyance. Julian was good at making her happy and being on her side unconditionally. In this case, she was not in the mood for scolding Ezra any longer each time.
Then Emelia talked about Anya and Phil. She told Julian about Anya's words today. She suggested, "I think she has suffered a lot from the scars on her heart. Do you think it's good to let her have a talk with Jean?"
Julian stroked her hair on the forehead and said softly, "Actually, Phil had found a psychiatrist for her."
Julian added, "She rejected it strongly and did not cooperate with them at all. So Phil could do nothing but give up."
Emelia asked in surprise, "So… he knows about her trauma?"
Julian said, "Is there anything he doesn't know?"
"No, there isn't." Emelia nodded. Phil was the best lawyer, the shrewdest person among a group of sharp guys. How could Anya hide secrets in front of him?
Emelia said worriedly, "But it's OK for the two to keep their relationship like this?"
Phil kept imposing his love on Anya, and while Anya didn't want it; it was somewhat like a vicious circle.
Julian said bluntly, "Their future isn't promising. He—"
There was something Emelia should not know at present. Some unspeakable things remained between Phil and Anya. Once Anya knew, Phil would be bound to be "game over".
So, he said, "They are not well matched. We've told Phil from the very beginning."
"A top partner with a successful career. An elite lawyer who made a name for himself while he was still a student. He has a lot of choices. But he loses his heart to a little girl, and we can't help him with it."
"Why are you guys all in trouble?" Emelia complained. She became annoyed by merely thinking about these shits.
