Chapter 347
The last thing Julian expected was for Charmine to reply sharply, “Hold on, do you think I’m that fake girlfriend of yours? Walk quicker, and don’t drag me down.”
With that, Charmine walked in front of him. The path was narrow and rugged with steps made of stones, each steeper than the previous ones.
Despite that, Charmine walked with grace and stability, and she got a few steps down swiftly.
Julian looked at her back with narrowed eyes. How could Charmine walk with such grace on such a rugged path? Not to mention, she could easily slip and fall in just a misstep. It was a daunting path, yet she was not scared at all.
Amazement welled in Julian’s eyes.
Tiffany, on the other hand, practically glued herself to him when they came to this place last night, and her actions served only to stroke Julian’s ego as a man. Looking at Charmine’s confident self, however, made him see that a woman could be just as handsome.
A woman like her could only be his.
Julian’s gaze darkened at the thought of his plan as he caught up to Charmine. Both of them walked for at least half an hour before reaching the heel of the mountain.
The sky had darkened at that point, and villagers had started to make meals at their homes, evident by the smoke coming out of their chimneys.
Julian eventually cut Charmine off and walked in front of her instead. “Follow me.”
Charmine remained cautious as she followed him deeper into the village. They walked past ridges and roads, and under the dark sky, there were no villagers in sight.
As he walked, Julian slowly began, “Charmine, I’ve regretted my actions over the past five years. I shouldn’t have supported Tiffany’s mistakes back then.”
Charmine merely scoffed and said nothing to that.
If a douchebag could repent, the world might as well start rotating in the opposite direction.
Still, Charmine was all up to find out what Julian was trying to pull.
“What I’m saying is true, Charmine.” Julian stopped abruptly and turned to look at her. “Back then during our wedding ceremony, I genuinely wanted to marry you, and I sincerely wanted to make it up to you for the rest of my life. What happened between me and Tiffany was an accident, and I brought you here to find Rex Walker today to prove my sincere intentions.”
