Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58 Are You Master Quigley’s Disciple?

Back at the villa.

After taking a shower, Annalise saw that Julian had already taken a shower and was lying on the bed in his pajamas.

“Come!” Julian patted the spot beside him.

Annalise felt that the atmosphere was simply too awkward.

Her cheeks began to burn again as she thought of their kiss in the bungalow.

“Come, I have something to tell you!” Julian looked serious.

Upon hearing that there was serious business, Annalise went over.

She climbed onto the bed and sat down. She looked at Julian and waited for him to speak.

Julian reached out and held Annalise’s hand.

Annalise’s emotions became complicated again.

She couldn’t help but ask herself, was she disgusted?

She didn’t dislike it.

So, she let him hold her hand.

She thought about what he had said earlier. “We can try. Who knows? It might just work out.”

Julian held Annalise’s hand and said sincerely, “I’m sorry about my dad!”

Annalise shook her head. “You don’t have to apologize. In fact, I should be the one to apologize. He’s your father after all, but I disrespected him.”

“He gave birth to me, so he can hit me. He didn’t give birth to you, so he has no right to hit you. If he respects you, you respect him. If he doesn’t respect you, you don’t have to be polite to him either,” Julian said.

Annalise looked at Julian and met his deep and sincere eyes.

She couldn’t help but think of the various cases she had seen online. Most men would tell women that it wasn’t easy for their parents to raise them and that their wives had to be filial to their parents.

Actually, thinking about it, it would be quite good if she ended up together with Julian in the future. At least there would be no problem in this aspect.

Moreover, Old Mr. Parks treated her very well.

Suddenly, the scales in her heart began to tilt toward giving the relationship a try.

Seeing that Annalise did not speak, Julian smiled gently at her and caressed the back of her hand. He asked, “Your new method of brewing medicine is actually refining pills, which is said to be a legend?”

“Sort of,” Annalise said.

She was willing to trust him, for some reason.

Julian looked deeply at Annalise and solemnly said, “Don’t tell anyone that you know how to refine pills. A person’s talent will arouse the envy of others. You have to protect yourself at all times.”

“I know.” Annalise felt warm inside.

“Samuel’s birthday banquet is next week and there will be many people who want to see you make a fool of yourself. Give this elixir pill to Samuel as a birthday gift. You just have to show some people who’s better!” Julian quipped.

Annalise could not help but laugh. “You told me not to tell anyone about refining pills, but you want me to give them to Samuel as a birthday gift. What should I say if others ask where the pills came from?”

“Just say that by chance, you helped an old man cross the road, and that old man gave you a box of elixir pills. His name would be Joseph Quigley and he said that these pills can prolong life,” Julian answered. “Pfft, haha” Annalise could not help but laugh out loud.

When Julian suggested giving the elixir pills to Samuel as a birthday gift, she was thinking of using Ms. Tuffin’s name

In the end, Julian was even more ruthless. He actually came up with the lie that she helped an old man cross the road, and coincidentally, the old man was Joseph.

*Someone will definitely ask where the old man is. You just have to say that you don’t know. Anyway, you really don’t know…” Suddenly, Julian paused.

He looked at Annalise in shock. “Are you Master Quigley’s disciple?”

He thought of what Samuel had told him about the elixir pill. The Parks family had an elixir pill that was passed down from one generation to the next by their ancestors, and this pill was refined by an Imperial Physician from the previous dynasty. His surname was also Quigley.

Currently, the most famous medical expert of Chanaea, Joseph Quigley, had the same surname. Previously, when Julian asked Samuel if anyone else in the world knew how to refine pills, Samuel said that there might be and that the most likely candidate was Master Quigley.
