Chapter 38 The Third Wheel
“Ms. Tuffin, where are you going? Let me give you a ride,” Annalise said to Madeline at the entrance of the hotel.
Madeline stretched out her hand to flick her hair while twisting her waist. “No need. I’ll be playing cards with friends all night.”
At that time, there was no reason for her to be a third wheel.
For a woman like Annalise who had just had a breakup, the best way for her now was to find a better man than her ex-boyfriend and fall in love with him immediately. With that, she would be healed in no time. “All night again? Staying up late really hurts your body.” Annalise reminded Madeline.
Madeline replied coquettishly, “Don’t I have you to take care of me? All right, I’m going to play cards now.”
She leaned closer to Annalise and teased her, “Women at their young age should go dating and be nourished by love. Go ahead.”
“Ms. Tuffin, it’s not what you think. We’re not… Annalise explained anxiously.
With a knowing look on Madeline’s face, she couldn’t hide the smile on her lips.
“It’s really not…” Annalise didn’t know how to explain.
Madeline raised her eyebrows with a smile on her face and waved her hand at Julian. “Goodbye, Mr. Parks!”
“Let’s go, Julian said to Annalise
“You don’t have to send me off. I can drive myself home,” Annalise replied.

I’m a little hungry. Shall we go eat something first?” Julian gently asked Annalise’s opinion.
The charity gala started at eight o’clock. Four hours had passed.
“Then, I’ll treat you,” Annalise immediately said.
She would return the necklace to him later and also transfer to him the money for Madeline’s perfume, which cost 882 thousand dollars.
“Okay. Then, I want to eat something better. Is that fine? Julian looked at Annalise with a smile on his face.

Julian’s gaze was too gentle, and she immediately averted her eyes from him, for she was afraid of falling in love with him.
“Let’s go to Love Ocean Restaurant then,” Julian suggested.
Annalise felt slightly reluctant to go there, as Love Ocean Restaurant was a restaurant for couples.
“I want to eat steak,” Julian said.
“Sure,” Annalise answered.
“Forget it. It doesn’t matter what we eat,” she thought.
“I’ll drive.” Julian reached out and held Annalise’s hand.
Annalise used to pull her hand out habitually, but now, she didn’t bother to do so. It wouldn’t harm her

anyway. But, she was surprised that it gave her a comfortable feeling.
She felt that it was less lonely to have a companion. Also, she would not think of Benjamin anymore and her broken heart.
They arrived at Love Ocean Restaurant soon.
Julian booked for a candlelight dinner directly.
It was the wee hours now, and a candlelight dinner seemed wonderful at that moment.
Then, he asked for violin music.
They sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The neon lights flashed outside, and the lights in the room were dimly lit. The atmosphere was romantic.
Love Ocean Restaurant had always been very good in business, but it was a bit strange that night. Apart.
from the two of them, there were only violinists and waiters standing far away
The steak was served
Julian gently pulled the plate in front of Annalise ‘Let me cut it for you”
“No need I’ll do it myself,” Annalise immediately said
As he spoke, Julian had already started cutting the steak
He looked so focused and charming when he slightly lowered his head to cut the steak
The steak he cut out was extraordinarily well proportioned, like a work of art
Help me cut it Julian raised his eyes and smiled gently at Annalise
Uhh Okay Annalise pulled the plate of steak from Julian.
She thought silently in her heart, “Why can’t we cut and eat our own steak at the same time?”
Tm so hungry Feed me a plece, Julian said.
Annalise didn’t know how to react to it. She felt so ambiguous that she couldn’t reach out her hand.
Looking at Julian, the feeling as if a lifetime had passed came back to her.
In fact, when she was in a relationship with Benjamin back then, she fed him too.
They were in a sweet relationship before as they would eat together, watch movies together, and hold hands. Benjamin would give her flowers and gifts on all kinds of occasions. He would also give her small surprises. at times. It was so unexpected that they would end their relationship that way
“Just one piece” Julian looked at Annalise gently
Annalise immediately poked a steak with a fork and passed it to Julian’s mouth
Julian opened his mouth to eat the steak and smiled gently at Annalise
Annalise immediately averted her eyes.
Thinking of the necklace, she immediately took it off “I have to return this to you”
“It’s for you,” Julian said.
“No. It’s too expensive. I can’t take it!”
Julian stopped cutting the steak in his hand and looked at Annalise intently “Anna, have you ever thought that maybe if we try to get to know each other, we may be a good match?
Annalise’s heart twitched for no reason.
It was

Even though she met her mentors later, and they took good care of her, it was difficult to make up for the loss. and damage of her childhood.
After that, she would devote herself wholeheartedly and would treat anyone who was good to her even better.
During the year of being in a relationship with Benjamin, she had been contributing all the time.
Her friendship with Samantha also left her heartbroken.
However, rationality told her that she should be strong and not care.
Despite that, when she was lying in bed at night, she would remember that she had tried her best in the past.
“In this world, there are people who hurt you recklessly, but there will also be people who try to give you. warmth!” Julian said again.
Annalise tightened her grip on the fork.
She understood that theory. However, after going through that with Benjamin, she wanted to give herself some time to readjust.
Although it was no longer so sad to see Benjamin now, thinking of what she had done in the past year, she still felt sorry for herself.
You wear the necklace first. If we really want to get a divorce after three months, you can return it to me by then,” Julian said
Hmm… Okay then, Annalise answered
ay, there would be a lot of things to return to him by that time, including the betrothal gifts given by his grandfather, the “Eye of the Sky’ necklace, and the wedding ring.
“Come. You can eat now.” Julian gently pushed the steak that he had cut nicely to Annalise
Hold on. Thaven’t finished cutting it for you yet
“It’s okay. I’ll do it myself” Seeing that Annalise was anxious to help him continue cutting the steak, Julian smiled and took over the plate which the steak had yet to be fully cut
While cutting the steak, he said, “Foie gras is not bad too. I also ordered a bowl of beauty supplements for you. Women can’t stay up late. A bowl of beauty supplements can make up for it”
“Thank you!” Annalise felt touched
To her, all the emotions had an unbearable weight.
“Silly, we are a married couple Julian laughed as he spoke.
“We are a take couple,” Annalise immediately said.
Julian looked at Annalise gently “Don’t be pressured. During these three months, we will get along with each other like friends. In case you have a good impression of me, we will then continue our relationship, okay?”
