"Why so sudden? No news at all? Before, when you hadn't returned to Veridia, Julian even came to the house to look for you. I still think he cares about you and holds you dear to his heart."
Scarlett said, "That's all in the past."
"Just now, his mother called me asking me to persuade you. She said something about hoping you won't blame Julian for her actions. I don't know what happened. Did the Griffin Family make you feel wronged?"
"No." Scarlett said, "I just feel like we're not suitable. Uncle... thank you for worrying. I'm fine. I don't want to discuss this topic for now, so... I'll hang up now."
Having said that, Scarlett hurriedly hung up the phone.
She realized that she was now afraid of hearing Julian's name.
It always felt like whenever someone mentioned it, it was like rubbing salt into her wounds.
After dinner, Jonah Morgan accompanied her back to the shop, and right at the entrance, they saw Felix Rhodes talking to Vivian Bell.
