Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 72

Twenty minutes later, Emelia arrived with the food.

However, to avoid meeting Julian, she did not go upstairs.

Maisie went downstairs to get the food and Emelia went home thereafter.

When David saw the delicious food brought up by Maisie, he almost drooled.

He was so excited that he babbed excitedly to Maisie when eating, "Maisie, I want to stay in your apartment during the days. Emelia are staying with you."

Thus, he could have delicious food every day.

Before Maisie could say anything, Julian gave David a cold look.

Feeling the displeasure from the boss, David quickly handed the stew to Julian. "Mr. Hughes, this stew doesn't taste spicy. Would you like to try it?"

The familiar aroma of the food wafted into Julian's nose, and he felt that the whole taste buds were mobilized.

Emelia had often cooked stew for him before, especially various kinds of stomach-nourishing stew.

At first, he disliked it, but later he found that his stomach was very comfortable after having it. He gradually accepted it, and then it became a habit.

He had never had such delicious stew since their divorce a year ago. For a while, he missed it very much.

Therefore, he accepted the stew David offered without hesitation.

David was a little speechless. He was just showing politeness and had thought that the boss would be more reserved. However...

Seeing this, Maisie had to give her stew to Julian too. The three shared the dinner brought by Emelia.

If it weren't for Julian's stomach, he would have really tasted the other two dishes.

At noon the next day, Julian invited Caroline to lunch.

After the call with Julian, Caroline rang Yvonne with a guilty conscience. "Julian asked me out for lunch. Has he known something?"

She and her brother Julian were realy distant. She also knew that she always caused trouble, so she never stayed close to him so as to avoid being scolded.

Therefore, when Julian suddenly asked her out for dinner, Caroline instinctively felt that what she had done was revealed.

Yvonne comforted her. "That's impossible. Didn't you buy that phone number through several people before it was passed on to your staff?"

"Yes." Caroline said, "I also think he can't trace it to me in a short time. Then why did he suddenly invite me to dinner?"

"Maybe he just wanted to have dinner with you. Don't panic."Yvonne added, "You're his sister after all. He won't do anything to you."

After being comforted by Yvonne, Caroline finally calmed down.

That's right. She was Julian's younger sister. Compared with her, Emelia was nothing.

Upon arriving on time at the restaurant where Julian had booked the table, Caroline smiled and sat down opposite him.

She secretly took a look at Julian's face and found that he was very calm. Then she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the table was full of her favorite dishes, Caroline completely relaxed.

Julian asked her, "How are things going on recently?"

Caroline said while eating, "Nothing special."

Julian elegantly ate some food and said calmly, "What plans do you have for the future?"

"The future?" Caroline said indifferently, "What plan can I have? I am very content now."

Her life plan was to live without worries under the protection of Julian and the Hughes Group.

In her mother's words, she was born with a silver spoon.

She didn't need to work hard to make a living. She just needed to enjoy her life every day.

Julian was silent for a moment, and then he put down the knife and fork and looked at her seriously, saying, "Since you don't have any plan, I have one for you."

Before Caroline could understand what he meant, he said, "I plan to send you abroad to study."

"What?" Caroline was anxious and protested angrily, "I don't want to!"

She didn't want to go abroad. Firstly, she had always been a bad student. She couldn't speak English. Language would be a big problem when she was abroad.

Secondly, she was afraid that she couldn't adapt to the foreign environment. In Riverside City, with Julian and the Hughes Group, she could get whatever she wanted.

Most importantly, no one abroad knew who she was.

At home, she was an actress of some renown and a silver-spoon girl enjoying her life. She liked the feeling of being surrounded by others.

Julian said seriously, "Caroline, you are no longer young. You have to plan for your future."

"I won't listen to you!" Caroline lost control and shouted, "I don't want to go abroad. I don't want to!"

Julian was also annoyed. He glared at her and said in an unprecedentedly severe tone, "You don't want to go abroad! Then do you want to muddle along in the entertainment business all your life? Do you want to make trouble all your life?"

When Julian finished his last sentence, Caroline shrank back guiltily.

The next second, she burst into tears. "Julian, are you my brother? I say I don't want to go abroad, but you force me to go. Why?"

Caroline was not in the mood to eat. She grabbed her bag and stood up. "I'm going back to tell Mom that you bullied me!"

After that, she ran away. Julian was so angry that his face darkened.

Considering her vexatiousness, it would be strange if a man wanted to marry her in the future!

Not long after Caroline returned home, Julian received a call from his mother, Heather. This was within his expectations.

Moreover, her mother would only make more trouble than Caroline.

Sure enough, he heard Heather ask him in a choked voice, "Julian, why do you want to send Caroline abroad?"

"Do you know that she is my treasure?"

"You are too busy to accompany me and your father..." Heather cried even harder. "Every day, only Caroline is with me at home. If you send her abroad, it will kill me!"

Julian said flatly, "Father is abroad all year round, isn't he? He can take care of Caronline there."

His parents are not close, or it could even be said that their marriage had been half broken up.

Several years ago, His father, Gerhard Hughes, in his midlife, became distant from Heather and had affairs with other women, causing the breakdown of their relationship.

However, they did not divorce. Gerhard Hughes had been living abroad all year round since then.

If Caroline went abroad, he would definitely send her to Gerhard. She was good-for-nothing. With Gerhard taking care of her, she could make less trouble.

Heather was furious by his cold words. "Your father takes care of her? I'm afraid he spends all his time on those temptresses, doesn't he?"

"No way. Caroline can't go abroad!" Heather's attitude was tough as she spoke.

Naturally, Julian would not let it go. He said word by word, "Mom, Caroline must go abroad."

If she didn't go abroad, how many troubles she would cause to Emelia.

"You..." Healther was obviously very angry. She did not speak for a long time.

"I still have work to do. Chat with you later." Julian hung up without giving Heather another chance to say anything.
