Chapter 242 Do You Still Love Me?
Emelia came back so late because Winston proposed to watch a movie after dinner. Emelia had always wanted to watch this movie, but she didn’t have time to. Just as Winston invited her, she agreed.
The main reason for this was an indie movie. Emelia felt that, she might not be able to find a suitable person to watch it except Winston. Although Nina was an actress, she did not like watching such movies at all. Sometimes, Emelia watched it with her, and she had simply fall asleep.
It was rare to see someone like him who could chat with her in such a short time. Emelia happily went.
When she came with Winston just now, they walked very fast for fear that it was going to rain. The road was a bit slippery. Emelia staggered a few steps and Winston helped support her.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Emelia wanted to ask Winston let go of her, but Winston added, “The road ahead is still slippery. It’s going to rain soon. Let’s hurry back.”
As he spoke, he continued to pull her forward. His hand had been holding onto her wrist, but as they walked, he had grabbed her hand. At first, Emelia hadn’t noticed it, but now that she had been stared at by Julian’s red eyes, she finally realized what was going on.
Julian didn’t answer the question why he was here. His brain had been messed by jealousy. It wasn’t until Emelia withdrew her hand that he regained some of his senses.
Winston spoke first and greeted Julian politely, “Mr. Hughes.”
Emelia asked in surprise, “Do you know each other?”
Winston smiled and said, “We had known each other a few years ago.”
Only then did Julian look at Winston, “Mr. Hopkins, long time no see.”
“Mr. Hughes, this is…?” Winston asked Julian with a puzzled face.
“Mr. Hopkins, since you’re pursuing Emelia, how come you don’t know who I am and why I’m here?”
Emelia stared at him in astonishment. What was wrong with him?
Winston spoke to him politely, but Julian meant to quarrel.
Winston didn’t care about Julian’s cold face. He just said lightly, “I really don’t know Mr. Hughes’s purpose. After all, no one mentioned you to me.”
Winston’s words were harsh, hinting that Julian was not important at all to Emelia and the Longerich family, so no one mentioned him at all.
After Winston finished speaking, he added, “Besides, when I met Mr. Hughes a few years ago, the woman around Mr. Hughes seemed to be a famous actress. Could it be that Mr. Hughes broke up with that actress now? Do you have something with Emelia?”
Winston’s words almost angered Julian. Winston obviously knew his identity, so he deliberately mentioned his relationship with Yvonne, emphasizing the ambiguous relationship between him and Yvonne at that time.
At that time, he was still in a marriage with Emelia. This should be what Emelia was most unwilling to mention.
As expected, Emelia lowered her eyes and pursed her lips slightly.
Julian narrowed his eyes and looked at Winston. This man was definitely an expert at playing tricks. In just a few words, he made Emelia hate him again.
There was another thunder above his head, and the colder wind swept over the fallen leaves on the ground. Emelia wrapped her clothes tightly and looked at Winston, saying, “The weather is pretty bad. Go back first. Thank you for treating me to dinner tonight, and thank you for inviting me to the movie.”
Julian gritted his teeth. Did they go to watch a movie?
A man and a woman watching a movie at night was not an ordinary ambiguous way, but also the most practical way to cultivate the relationship.
After Emelia finished speaking to Winston, she turned to look at Julian. Her tone was a little distant than when she was talking to Winston. “Mr. Hughes, you should go back as well.”
After finishing her words, Emelia planned to open the door and go home first, but in the end, Julian stopped her. The man’s gaze was deep as he stared at her. “I have something to discuss with you.”
“It’s too late today and the weather is not good. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.” For the sake of his current situation, Emelia had said this.
When she came back, Julian was waiting outside the door. Obviously, Vincent didn’t want him to come in.
Emelia could also sense that Vincent didn’t like Julian, and he was looking for her now. Was he going to stand outside the door and talk in the storm?
However, Julian insisted, “I’ll just say a few words.”
Before Emelia could say anything, the bean-sized raindrops suddenly fell. She exclaimed and hid in the eaves of the corridor. Then she said to the two, “It’s raining. You should leave now.”
Winston glanced at Julian, who was next to her, and didn’t stay any longer. He slowly said to Emelia, “See you tomorrow.”
Then he turned and left.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Winston had left, but Julian was still standing there motionless. The rain instantly drenched him.
Emelia felt that Julian was a lunatic. She stared angrily at him and said, “If you have something to say, then say it.”
Since he didn’t want to leave, he could go after finishing his words.
Emelia’s condition was better under the eaves of the corridor. The rain would not directly pour on her, but because the wind was too strong, she was still a little wet.
Julian took a step forward, standing in the middle of the storm. The rain which had landed on Emelia’s body had all landed on him. In addition, the rain which had poured down from his head had caused him to be in an extremely sorry state.
He stood in the wind and rain and looked at Emelia, saying word by word firmly, “I love you.”
Emelia didn’t know what was wrong. Perhaps his current situation was too miserable. When he said these three words, her chest trembled violently.
She didn’t know whether she should be angry or pitiful. She wrapped her clothes tightly and said hurriedly, “I know. Can you leave now?”
Julian ignored her words and stepped forward to approach her. He fixed his eyes on her and asked in a deep voice, “Do you still love me?”
Emelia didn’t say a word. She couldn’t say anything either.
There was indeed no clear answer to whether she loved or not.
Since the divorce, she had been trying hard to look forward and had never thought about this, because in her opinion, she and Julian had divorced, and they wouldn’t together anymore.
She had never thought that one day, Julian would turn back to tell her that he loved her…
Julian knew that she would be silent, so he announced, “If you don’t give me an answer today, I won’t leave.”
This forced Emelia to move her body. She took a step back and calmly said, “I don’t love you anymore.”
Emelia hoped that he could stop and leave as soon as he got such an answer. The rain was so heavy that if he continued to stand in the rain, he would catch a cold.
