Chapter 887: Chapter 887: He Likes Married Won
Lucien Sullivan put his business card on the table and fled the room without looking back. He caught up with Julian Russell. “Julian, wasn’t it a bit too much to show concern for Mrs. Mat in front of Caleb?”
Julian glanced at him with a look of disbelief, then stepped into the elevator.
Lucien’s face turned serious: “Although we’re good friends, I have to say, it’s not good for you to hassle Miss Evans after she’s married! I admit she’s incredibly beautiful, one of the most beautiful won I’ve ever seen, but…”
The two got out of the elevator, and Lucien continued to nag: “All these years, you haven’t had a single woman by your side. I thought you had so hidden problem. Finally, you fall for soone, and it’s Caleb’s wife! You really know how to pick ’em! The most difficult woman to get! Have you really thought about if you can compete with Caleb?”
Julian looked up. “Lucien.”
Lucien t his deep eyes and trembled slightly. “I’m saying these things for your own good. Please don’t be angry!”
...
“I’m not angry. I just think there might be sothing wrong with your brain. You should get it checked soti.” With that, Julian got into his car and sped away, leaving Lucien standing there, lost in the wind.
Who was the one with a problem, anyway? How could he fall for a married woman and still think it was reasonable? Moreover, he had given the heirloom bracelet from the Russell family to that woman. Was that bracelet really only available to Julian?
He vaguely rembered that Mrs. Russell had another jade bracelet, which was supposed to be given to Nina Hughes. Unfortunately, Miss Hughes passed away at a young age, so Mrs. Russell said that she would give it to her granddaughter, Nina’s daughter instead. It seed like the Russell family had found this long-lost granddaughter already.
If Xaviera Evans’ bracelet wasn’t given by Julian, then there was only one possibility – it was given by Mrs. Russell. So Xaviera is his sister?
Lucien’s mouth twitched slightly. No wonder Julian had said that Murray Walter would never be welcod into the Russell family after offending Xaviera!
…
The Hughes Old Mansion.
Murray Walter cried bitterly, and Mrs. Walter voiced her displeasure: “Lord, our family isn’t being unreasonable. Julian is bullying us. Our families have already made a marriage pact. Murray will marry him sooner or later. How can he give the heirloom bracelet to another woman?”
Cory Hughes furrowed his eyebrows when he heard about the heirloom bracelet.
Mrs. Walter continued indignantly, “Murray said that Julian treats that woman especially well, even pausing an important company eting to go to her and make sure she isn’t wronged. Murray just wanted to defend her marriage and scolded that woman a little, but who would have thought that Julian would actually help that woman and make Murray apologize to her? Isn’t he humiliating Murray publicly?”
As her voice fell, Zora Hughes, accompanied by Madam Hughes, walked over, having overheard their conversation. She looked puzzled: “Murray, are you saying Julian has another woman outside?”
“Yes! I saw it with my own eyes. That woman’s last na is Evans, and she’s involved with Mr. Caleb Mat. She relies on her pretty face to seduce n everywhere. She’s a temptress!” Murray said, gritting her teeth.
Last na Evans?
Zora couldn’t help but think of soone in her mind, and it seed like Cory had realized it too. Before he could explain, Zora stepped forward to comfort: “Murray, Julian isn’t that kind of person. Maybe he went there to find you. How do you know he went for Miss Evans?”
Murray brightened up imdiately. “You’re right. Maybe Julian knew that I often go there, so he ca to find and just happened to see arguing with that woman. That’s why he scolded .”
Zora smiled gently: “That’s right! Julian must know that Miss Evans has Caleb behind her, so he couldn’t openly take your side. In front of everyone, he could only pretend to scold you. If he didn’t do that, then Miss Evans would have Caleb co after you, and you would be the one to suffer in the end.”
“After Julian scolded you, Miss Evans and Caleb wouldn’t have any reason to punish you, right? So I think you must have misunderstood him. He still has you in his heart.”
After Zora finished speaking, she heard Murray’s excited voice: “That’s right! Julian did scold and made apologize, but after that, Caleb didn’t say anything, and that manager had his leg broken. It seems that Julian was really trying to protect !”
