Everyone else thought Simon Hawthorne was joking, but only Austin Xavier really took those words to heart.

Julian Hawthorne injured his leg, and recently when he went to work, it was Paige Sterling who pushed him there.

The entire company saw him even using a wheelchair, and their imaginations ran wild. Combined with Julian Hawthorne’s recent frantic ntoring of Simon Hawthorne, they speculated whether Julian had so terminal illness.

Therefore, for a certain period, everyone in the company looked at Julian Hawthorne with eyes full of sympathy.

Until soone saw that when Paige Sterling was not around, Julian suddenly stood up from the wheelchair, looking full of life without any hint of being on the verge of death.

But once Paige ca, he returned to the wheelchair, appearing half-dead.

The company employees, "...", couldn’t believe that even President Hawthorne was a secret drama king.

Although Paige pushed Julian to the company every day, she hadn’t been into Julian’s office for quite so ti.

One day, after she ca back from Islet Labs, she went to Julian’s office when he was in a eting.

Paige waited for Julian in his office.

Compared to before, his office had changed quite a bit.

It used to be in cold tones of black, white, and gray, but ever since he t Paige, the office curtains were changed to orange, and the black leather sofa was replaced with a fluffy fabric one, completely convenient for Paige to sotis lie down to play.

Paige walked a circle, sat in Julian’s office chair, and only then discovered that beneath the stack of high-piled docunts, there was unexpectedly a pink fortune cat.

Standing in front of the desk, this hidden pink fortune cat was entirely invisible.

What surprised Paige even more was that this fortune cat, although waving its paw, had a face that was completely Paige’s face.

In that instant, Paige was filled with exasperation—at Julian’s twisted sense of humor.

Pink, fine, but on top of that, it’s made into her face.

She reached out her hand, touched the fortune cat, and it not only started shaking its paw but also emitted a sound.

It wasn’t a "wishing you wealth" or the like, but instead: Julian Hawthorne, I love you...

Moreover, it was in Paige’s voice.

Paige’s expression twisted; this was sothing Julian once forced her to say, and he even had a robot record the sound effect, never expecting it would be used here.

After that, the fortune cat wouldn’t stop, continually saying: Julian Hawthorne, I love you, Julian Hawthorne, I love you...

Paige felt a bit embarrassed, wanting it to stop, so she picked up the fortune cat intending to remove the battery.

But after looking for a while, she couldn’t find where the battery was placed.

Julian probably anticipated her doing this...

Paige put the fortune cat down, listening to the endless Julian Hawthorne I love you, her mouth twitched, let out a chuckle, and echoed, "Julian Hawthorne, I love you..."

After finishing the eting, Julian imdiately returned to the office upon hearing from Shaun Jones that Paige had co.

Just as he opened the door, he happened to hear Paige say that sentence.

Unlike the recording in the fortune cat, this I love you was filled with a sense of exasperation.

Yet, in Julian’s ears, it sounded like sweet whispers.

He walked toward Paige, his eyes shining as he looked at her.

Paige coughed slightly, "You better turn this off."

Julian, "Can’t turn it off."

He leaned closer to Paige, "What did you just say? Say it again?"

Paige denied it, "I didn’t say anything."

"I heard it."

"And you’re still asking to say it?"

Julian moved in to kiss Paige, she pushed his face away and asked, "Weren’t you still crippled? Can you walk now?"

Having been caught, Julian wasn’t embarrassed, "Just happened to recover."

"You’re really a habitual liar."

Julian, "Isn’t it all because you indulge ?"

Knowing full well he’s putting on an act, Paige still plays along with him, doesn’t she?

Paige was suddenly stuck, "Next ti you do this, I’ll definitely reveal the truth with a heart of stone, never giving you a chance to deceive again!"

Julian laughed quietly, holding Paige’s hand, "Earlier at noon, I was napping and dread."

His words piqued Paige’s interest, "What did you dream about?"

Julian said, "I dread of a mountain..."

As he spoke, he paused, his face moved closer to Paige, "And there were clouds on the mountain..."

He moved even closer to Paige, "And rain..."

Finally, his lips pressed against Paige’s ear, "Mrs. Hawthorne, could you help interpret what this dream ans?"

Paige was speechless, not daring to utter the four characters referring to intimacy.

Julian was becoming more flirtatious.

"Mr. Hawthorne, we’re in the office, be serious.", Paige’s attitude was like a stern school principal.

Julian, "Later the plane’s flying abroad."

He said, "There’s sothing I need to personally handle, if I leave, won’t you miss ?"

Paige, "..."

Julian’s pitiful look left Paige with no choice but to let him misbehave in the office.

And finally, Julian was so drunk on warmth and affection that he reluctantly left for his trip abroad.

With her head filled with frustrations, Paige sent him to the airport before he unwillingly left.

It seed like Julian now had the air of an emperor heading down a path of idleness, no longer attending court.

She certainly didn’t want to be the ruinous beauty causing chaos.

After Julian left, Paige was in no hurry to work, not even going ho.

Burt Chambers and Sonny Chambers, rather than feeling the freedom of parents being away, felt like pitiful left-behind children.

So when Paige finally ca ho, she was t with the resentful, staring eyes of Burt and Sonny Chambers.

"Paige! Do you still rember this is your ho? Huh? Tell how many days you haven’t been around?"

Paige glanced at the aggressive Sonny, "Getting bold, huh, daring to yell at ?"

Sonny imdiately chickened out, shaking Paige’s sleeve, "You’ve been away for so many days, I really missed you..."

Paige chuckled, entered the room, and started changing clothes.

Sonny’s eyes widened, "You just got back, are you going out again?"

Paige, "There’s a banquet I need to attend, you two stay ho and behave, you hear ."

Sonny’s eyes darted around, yet he didn’t leave while Paige changed, only turned his back and covered his eyes.

Once Paige was done changing, he turned around imdiately, clung to a corner of Paige’s clothing batting his eyes, down to cramps, still sounding cutesy.

Paige couldn’t tolerate it anymore, "Sonny! What are you doing?"

"What am I doing, can’t you tell?", Sonny faked a voice that made Paige want to strangle him, "I’m expressing my boundless admiration for you..."

Paige yanked her clothes from Sonny’s grip, "Then stay ho and admire, won’t you."

And off she went toward the door.

Sonny quickly chased after her, sitting atop her foot as she changed shoes.

"Sis, I haven’t seen you for so many days, and you’re leaving right after you co back. I don’t want you to go..."

Paige snickered twice, "I’ll count to three. If you don’t let go, I’ll kick you to death."

Sonny shivered a bit, his grip loosened slightly, "Sis, I really don’t want you to go, don’t leave all alone here, starting today I’ll go wherever you go..."

Who knows where he learned this nauseating stuff.

"You want to go with ?"
