Julia’s captivating smile lit up her lips, but Noah didn’t notice it.
Yet, monts later, her smile gradually disappeared, and her look beca sorrowful; her eyes now reflected sadness as she spoke in a desperate tone.
"But Noah, you know I’m in a difficult situation now, right? I know you’re mad at and the others for what we did that night, but please give a chance to prove I won’t do it again..."
Julia’s voice trailed off when she noticed Noah’s lack of reaction to her confession. She gritted her teeth almost without sound and stepped forward to close the distance between them.
She stopped just a few inches before him and looked to et his gaze. Her hand tried to touch his.
"Noah, I promise to give you a chance and try to love you. But I need your help... Huh!?" Her voice was enchanting as if she were casting a spell to win his heart.
"Could you say sothing instead of just admiring my beauty? Noah, I’m..." Her voice trails off as Noah cuts her off.
"Julia, you know what? You need acting classes! I can see your insincerity at a glance."
Julia clenches her fist tightly. Her anger is beginning to engulf her, but she suppresses it. She needs him desperately, and she is willing to do anything.
"What do you an? I’m being honest with you, Noah. How can you claim I’m acting?" Her voice quivered like she was attempting to convey her deep sadness at that mont.
’Unbelievable! Do you think I’m still the sa Noah? I saw you begging with tears, and will I waver again!? I won’t!’
He laughed inwardly, feeling better witnessing her shalessness.
"I’ve already answered you on the phone, and I stand by that answer. I won’t help you..." He said casually, but his tone was as cold as ice.
After hearing Noah’s rejection, Julia feels as if thunder has just struck her.
The mories of their phone conversation rush back to her, stirring her anger.
Yet, she held back her frustration and set aside her pride as she earnestly pleaded with him once again,
"Please, Noah, I will do anything you want. As long as you help clarify the news, I will grant your wish—anything!"
"I would have asked you to do sothing in the past, but I will never do that again! I’m finished with you, Julia Hart. Leave alone!"
Just as Noah was about to walk again, Julia suddenly grasped his arm, catching him off guard. He frowned and looked at her in disbelief.
Tears began to flow from Julia’s eyes. "Oh Noah, you are so heartless..." She speaks through her tears, loudly trying to draw anyone near to notice her.
"I’ve asked for your forgiveness, yet you still haven’t forgiven . Even when I plead for your help, you turn away. Noah, do you want to end my life? Do you want to witness my death before offering your forgiveness?"
Her cries beca so loud that they made Noah feel disgusted by her poor acting.
’Damn it, this girl! What the hell is she trying to do?’
Noah sincerely wished for another revenge ledger to appear to punish Julia, but there was no notification.
He could only assu that the system wouldn’t appear again because the system had already punished her.
"The more you cry, the less sincere you are now, Julia. Could you stop wasting my ti? My response remains unchanged: I won’t HELP you with anything. I hope I will never encounter you...again."
Noah said coldly as he brushed her hand away, freeing himself from her grip and turning to walk toward his apartnt.
However, the ’THUD’ sounds from behind, as if soone had fallen hard on the ground, followed by a loud cry, echoed through the air. Stopped him.
"You are so heartless, Noah! How could you push so hard? Are you trying to hurt ?" she cried loudly.
Noah was utterly speechless. This shaless woman behaves as her actual color; she transforms back into a white-lotus type of woman again.
"Julia, you know what happened, right? You’re pretending I hard you. How did you end up on the ground when I didn’t push you? Please stop lying; I feel more disgusted with you."
The sadness radiating from Julia’s eyes slowly faded. A thin smile erged from the corner of her lips.
Her previously teary eyes were gone. Instantly, her emotions shifted from sadness and fear to contempt, happiness, and disgust as she intently stared at Noah.
"Well, that’s my plan. Trapping you as if you pushed to the ground, Noah..." Julia stopped for a mont when she saw Noah gaping in surprise.
A pleased smile appeared on Julia’s face before she added, "Noah, I have a record of all our conversations. Everything. And my friend..."
Julia stood up and gestured towards the nearby car. "...She records everything. If you prefer not to clarify on video now, I will post the recording and our conversation on social dia."
"I don’t care about my future in the entertainnt world anymore! I only want to take revenge on you. I’ll make sure you won’t be able to stay in this city, Noah. And, of course, your sister will follow your path; she won’t have any future. I’ll make things even harder for you..."
Noah sighed and shook his head. He felt like he was talking to a brainless woman. "Are you done talking?"
Julia Hart frowned at Noah’s unexpected reaction; he was unaffected by her threat.
"I have a recording here," Noah said, lifting a black pen. "You can do whatever you want, but do not, for once, expect to sit back and let you tarnish my na, Julia. I will defend my honor, and I can fight back just as easily, if not more easily. So go ahead!"
"Y-You, how did you do that..."
Julia felt all her strength leave her body, causing her to fall to her knees. She was overwheld with shock, knowing Noah also recorded their conversation. Her gaze remained fixated on Noah, who lood over her like a tall tower.
