Chapter 2444
When Julie heard what Fabian said, she was surprised but did not show it. On the surface, she maintained her gentle and reserved demeanor. "I’m free tonight, but would that be too much trouble?""No. As long as you feel okay with it, it's fine.""Alright then." Julie nodded and agreed. Deep down, she was already planning what gifts she would bring to Fabian's house.Then, it was evening and kindergarten was over.Fabian arrived at the kindergarten’s entrance right on time. Julie took Lillian by her hand and brought her to Fabian."Mr. Johnson, I have other business to attend to. Here, you can take Lily back first.""Okay, go ahead," Fabian did not say much. He just turned around and walked away with Lillian in his hand.Julie was at a loss as she looked at Fabian's back, but the work in front of her was fighting for her attention.She sent the children back to their parents in an orderly manner before she returned to the office to deal with other matters.By the time she was a

While they were driving, Fabian did not say a word, so Julie kept silent.When the car stopped, Julie silently sighed in relief as she had felt as if she were about to die from suffocation.When she got out of the car, Julie took the initiative and tried to carry Lillian out of the car, but Fabian was one step faster."Allow me." Fabian very decisively stepped forward and carefully carried Lillian into his arms as he led the way. "Please follow me, Miss Charles."Julie froze for a moment before catching up behind him.She looked around the place and noticed that although the house Fabian lived in was not a particularly luxurious or grand villa, it still seemed like an expensive place.Fabian's background popped up in Julie’s mind. His brother, Yorick, used to be a powerful big shot in F Country, but it was later found out that he was involved in illegal business dealings. Since Fabian was still unscathed and he was doing his own business now in F Country, it would mean that he ha

Tonight was supposed to be an unexpectedly rare opportunity. She thought she would be able to have dinner with Fabian alone and have a kid tag along at most, but she did not expect that Fabian's friend would also be here.His presence seemed to have ruined the vibes, but Julie did not show her annoyance on her face.She kept a decent, gentle smile on her face throughout the meal and tried to look after Lillian to show them her good traits, but she had no chance to do so. From the time they started eating, Fabian had been taking care of Lillian himself all the way to the end of the meal.All Lillian had to do was eat like a good girl. Fabian put all the food on her plate, peeled every prawn for her, and even deboned all the fish for her. He was incredibly thoughtful toward Lillian during the entire meal.When Julie saw all of that, she wished she could do all of that for her. She felt that a guy who acted like Fabian was incredibly rare. As a kindergarten teacher, she would sometime

"Lily, is the blueberry sweet?"Lillian blinked her big eyes and reached out to grab a small blueberry before bringing it to Fabian's mouth.Fabian understood and smiled as he lowered his head to eat the blueberry she offered.For some reason, the sour blueberry tasted sweet.Only Fabian knew why it tasted sweet.Evan looked at the heartwarming scene and plopped down beside Fabian."Fab, are you telling me that Miss Charles isn’t the woman you have a crush on?""Stop speculating. How could I possibly like Lily's teacher?" Fabian denied it with a serious look on his face."Well, that's a pity. Otherwise, it would’ve been a win-win situation and your business would’ve gone to the next level." Evan had a look of pity on his face, but it soon turned into a relieved smile. "But judging from your personality, it probably wouldn't make much of a difference for you."Fabian did not understand what he meant but seemed to have caught onto something."You know Julie?" Fabian asked.Eva

When Evan heard what Fabian said, he frowned in confusion. On the other hand, Julie was there blushing, waiting with anticipation for what Fabian was going to say next.It was clear to her now. Fabian knew that she liked him and had deliberately invited her here for dinner with the knowledge of that.As for what that meant? It was obvious.Julie felt nervous, and her heart stirred like never before.She pricked up her ears and continued to listen to what Fabian was going to say next eagerly.However, she never expected that Fabian's subsequent words would end up extinguishing all her expectations and fantasies in an instant."I invited her here so that I wouldn't owe her any favors."Julie's excited heart skipped a beat. ‘He did all this because he didn't want to owe me any favors?’She looked at Fabian in astonishment. She could not and did not want to imagine what Fabian would say next.To prevent that from happening, Julie adjusted the smile on her face."Mr. Johnson."Sh

What Fabian said previously still rang in her ears. She did not understand what Fabian meant with his question, but the initial expectation she had surged within her heart once more. "I don't have a boyfriend." Julie did not hesitate to answer, and her heart started beating faster unconsciously."That's really great. I really wouldn’t want to miss out on such an excellent, gentle, and kind-hearted woman like you, Miss Charles."“...” Julie was really confused.Evan also looked at Fabian with surprise.What was going on?Did Fab not just say that he was not interested in Julie? Why was he saying this now?Just as they were wondering, Julie and Evan heard Fabian continue."Evan, I’ve done my best as your friend. I already invited such a good woman here for you. The rest is up to you.""...""...""If it weren't for me having no intentions to date now, I really wouldn’t have been willing to introduce such a great woman to you." "...""..." When Fabian was done talking, Ju

Evan was very direct. He had never beat about the bush with Fabian. Fabian did not deny it either, but he could not accept Evan’s choice of words. "She’s undoubtedly a very fine lady, so much better than those libertine women you keep by your side. Not to mention, it’s such a coincidence that you two have met before. You even know her father. Maybe you two really are fated." Evan raised his eyebrow. "Young Master Fabian, you still wish to matchmake me? But you have to get this clear. The one she’s interested in is you." "I don't even know her that well. At most, she might fancy my appearance,” Fabian said coldly. He then called a servant to bring Lillian back to the room to take a bath first.Evan did not really agree with Fabian’s perspective. "It’s only because of one's attraction to another’s appearance, that one would then feel inclined to learn more about the other on a personal level. Fab, you’re still too naive. It seems that I have to teach you more about this.""Do the

However, Fabian was not interested in her. He even introduced her to another man. This left Julie feeling depressed for a while. Until today, she could not figure out just what about her was not enough. "Julie, it's normal for couples to quarrel with each other. Don't be too depressed. If he has tried coaxing you, then let it be. Don't hold onto your anger against your man all the time," another female colleague reminded her kindly.Julie was stunned for a whole two seconds before she nodded along."No, we didn't argue." She smiled faintly and said somewhat embarrassedly. Right at this moment, her phone rang with a notification, indicating that she had gotten a message. Julie picked up the phone with anticipation and looked closely. It was indeed a message from Fabian, but after opening it, she only saw four utterly familiar words. [Thank you, Miss Charles.]Julie felt so disappointed, but she could not make any requests whatsoever. She was not Fabian's girlfriend. Julie put
