Chapter 95

After spending so many days together, an indescribable bond had formed between Julie and Ivan

Julie’s heart just melted when Ivan hugged her so innocently. She squatted down, patted him on the

head, and said. “You’re so adorable, how could anyone not want you?”

Julie clearly saw Ivan run out from Kieran’s villa, so she held his hand, “Your dad said Gilded Gate

Residences is under renovation, so he asked me to bring you to Noblewood Retreat for a while. Can

you show me the way?”

But Ivan looked toward Kieran as if waiting for him to speak.

Kieran just looked at Julie, “Why don’t you stay here with Ivan for a while?”

After hearing this, Ivan nodded frantically, “Yeah, yeah! Dad said we should stay here!”

Wasn’t that what his dad just said? He wasn’t lying.

Julie held his hand tight, looking at Kieran, and asked, “Why does his dad want us to stay here?”

Kieran glanced at the sky and said, ‘It’s about to rain. You can either stand here in the rain while Ivan

struggles to explain, or you can come in and I’ll tell you.”

Julie looked up at the sky. She didn’t trust Kieran completely so she hesitated.

But when a flash of lightning suddenly lit up the sky, Julie pulled Ivan and ran towards Kieran’s villa.

She had always been fearless, but she was scared of thunder. Whenever she saw lightning flash

across the sky, she felt like it was going to hit her any second, which always scared her.

Kieran calmly watched Julie take Ivan into the room, then smiled slightly and followed them in.

Julie led Ivan through the door. They stood awkwardly on the doormat, like kids who’d done something

wrong, waiting for Kieran to speak.

Kieran said, “I don’t like talking at the door” Then, he turned and walked over to a dark grey linen sofa.

“Mama Julie, Kerry’s a nice guy. He won’t hurt us. Shall we shall we go sit?” Ivan tugged at Julie’s

sleeve, trying to mitigate the awkward atmosphere.

Julie had no choice but to follow him.

After Ivan had Julie seated on the sofa, he winked at Kieran Whether Mama Julie could stay tonight all

depended on Kieran’s performance

Julie looked at Kieran and asked, “What did you mean by what you said at the door?”

Ivan’s dad has returned to Noblewood Retreat with his ex-wife. They plan to stay there for a while

Gilded Gate Residences is being renovated, so I hope you can stay here with Ivan for a while. Once

the renovation is done, you can bring him back.” Kieran calmly explained.

Ivan’s eyes lit up as he listened. Kieran was his father, so his father did indeed return to Noblewood

Retreat with his ex-wife. This was the truth, so Kieran -wasn’t lying. Kerry was so smart! He’d never

fight him again, or he’d be doomed!

With this understanding, Ivan suddenly became very obedient; he even stood up straight.

Julie frowned at Kieran, “So you mean, Mr. Kennedy is living with his ex-wife, and he wants me to stay

here with his child?”

“Don’t believe me? You can ask him yourself.” After saying this, Kieran stood up, “The first guest room

near the stairs on the second floor is yours. Ivan is In the bedroom on the left on the third floor.”

With that, Kieran went upstairs.

Behind him, Ivan shouted, “Thank you, Kerry!”

Julie took out her phone, opened WhatsApp, and sent a message to J Kennedy Mr. Kennedy, are you

suggesting that Ivan and I stay at Mr. Hernandez’s house?”

On the second floor, Kieran was leaning over the balcony, watching Julie downstairs, and messing

around with his phone.

After receiving Julie’s message, Kieran chuckled and replied, “Yes”

Thinking his answer was too simple, he added, “It took a lot of work to convince my ex-wife to come

back. I hope you understand.”

Julie had to accept this. After all, she was just a nanny, and Kieran had taken good care of her these

past few days. He was just asking for a small favor She couldnt refuse

So she replied, “Okay. Mr. Kennedy”

Ivan ran to Kieran and tugged at his pants, “Kerry…”

Kieran glanced at the last message Julie sent, didn’t reply, but squatted down in front of Ivan and

asked, “What’s up?”

“There’s thunder. Should I pretend to be really scared? Then Mama Julle con sleep with me.”

Your bed is only 1.3 meters long. It can’t fit your Mama Julie. Kieran said as he picked up Ivan and

headed to the third floor

Julle put down her phone and looked up just in time to see Kieran carrying Ivan to the third floor

bedroom.

She shook her head helplessly and walked toward the guest room. It wasn’t until she got there that she

remembered that her luggage was still at Gilded

Gate Residences

Kieran had already left Ivan in the bedroom upstairs, and Julie had just come out of her room when she

ran into Kieran.

“Make me a cup of coffee! Kieran said as he turned and headed for the study.

Julia was a bit lost. She was about to go upstairs and check on Ivan, then go back for her luggage, but

Kieran suddenly wanted coffee.

Julie could only look at Kieran’s retreating figure and say, “Sorry, Mr. Hernandez, I’ve got to go to

Gilded Gate Residences to pick up my luggage. You’ll have to get your coffee fix from the butler.”

“What luggage? Didn’t you leave all your stuff at your previous rental?” Kieran questioned.

Indeed, she didn’t have much luggage, just a few newly bought clothes for changing The rest of her

stuff was at the rental. Julie had hurt her foot before and was afraid to venture out to retrieve her things,

so she bought some cheap clothes online while staying at Gilded Gate Residences.

Important stuff like her ID and passport were all in her bag. Her only luggage was a few ordinary

clothes.

Kieran, who had clearly seen through Julie, turned back and stood at the doorway of the room next to

hers, beckoning her, ‘Come here.”

Next door was Kieran’s bedroom, which Julie was well aware of.

She stood her ground.

Kieran leaned against the door frame, lazily saying, “Come here, or Ill come sweep you off your feet.

You’ve got three seconds to decide. Three, two are you planning on making a run for it?”

At the count of two, Julie instinctively turned her back to Kieran and bolted.

Clearly, Kieran was trying to intimidate Julie, but instead of being intimidated, she was spurred to rebel.

Julie was darting upstairs, where Ivan was.

After hearing Kieran’s tone, she knew her only chance to avoid punishment was to get to Ivan.

But how could Julie possibly outrun Kieran? He caught up with her in three strides.

With a swift move, Kieran grabbed her arm, giving her a meaningful look, “Nice. You’ve learned to fight

back.”

Julie tried to shake off his grip, but his arm was like a vice, unyielding.

What’s wrong with her standing up for herself? Was she supposed to just sit back and take it? Just

because she was on his turf didn’t mean she was his prey!

“Ivan is upstairs! Let go!”

“You’ve got legs, don’t you? Once I let go, you’ll run faster than a rabbit.” Kieran clearly had no

intention of letting her go.

Julie weakly retorted, “Rabbits… they hop…”

“Rabbits are herbivores Im not. Test me again, Julie!”

Who was provoking whom here? Julie chose to back down. She was well aware of the principle that

discretion was the better part of valor. Knowing she couldn’t take this man on, she tried to wriggle out of

his grip, “Let go, it hurts…”

I’ve barely done anything, and you’re already crying out. Are you sure you’re not lying?” Kieran replied,

bending down to scoop Julie into his arms while heading toward his room.

Julie wanted to cry for help but was afraid her voice would wake Ivan.

What a scene it would be if the child saw this!

Since she couldn’t break free, Julie decided to just keep a straight face, allowing Kieran to carry her

into his bedroom.

Only when they reached the door did Julie suddenly reach out to stop them using the door frame,

blurting out, “I know rabbits are herbivores. but…wolves, even though they’re carnivores, they only

mate from January to February. Get a grip: put me down first. I’ll apologize. Is an apology good?
