He came out of the room and went downstairs. Leon saw him and greeted warmly, "Third Master."
"I have something to do." Julian didn't look at him and walked straight out the door.
Leon watched his back, wanting to say something but refrained.
Julian went directly next door.
Aunt Sun saw him, "May I ask..."
"I'm looking for Scarlett," Julian said.
Joyce heard the voice and came out. Seeing it was Julian, she was taken aback, "Julian?"
She thought Julian was in Ardendale; how could he be here?
Could it be that he also found out about Scarlett's marriage to Jonah?

No matter what, Julian was always better than Scarlett.
Julian asked, "Is Scarlett here?"
