Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 128

In reality, not only was Julie unable to figure Kieran out, even Julien couldn’t understand what was

going on in Kieran’s mind

She thought she’d made herself very clear Even if it was to keep Julie out of the National Security

Agency’s hands, Kieran should immediately go to Oakhurst and bring Julie back.

Unexpectedly, Kieran just calmly glanced at the expensive watch on his wrist and looked up at Julien,

saying, “You can head to the airpert nest

“Mr. Hemandez

Julien, get out!” Hayden cut off Julien before she could finish

Hayden knew Kieran better than she did. He never directly called Julien by her name growing up. He

always used his deep voice to call

her Lien

In the end, Julien just said to Kieran, “Mr. Hernandez, I hope you won’t regret this”

Watching Julien turn and leave, Hayden finally looked at Kieran and said, “Don’t treat my woman like

that in the future

Has

agreed to be your woman? Kieran sat on the couch, a slight smile on his lips.

Hayden locked thoughtfully at Kieran, If Lien wants to go to Oakhurst, I won’t stop her”

“Hmm”

Karl, who was watching their cold conversation, felt a bit anxious

even

Hayden said to Kieran, “Kerry, I know. Since you let Julie go to Oakhurst, you must have absolute

confidence in her safety But though her personal safety is guaranteed, I worry she might run into

someone she knows in such a strange place, and she might easily develop feelings for that person”

Kieran’s deep gaze fell on Hayden’s face. Hayden glanced at him meaningfully, then followed Julien

towards the door

Just as Kieran was pondering the hint in Hayden’s words, Karl’s phone suddenly rang

After nodding at Kieran, he answered the call and turned to walk out onto the balcony

A while later, Karl hung up the phone and looked seriously at Kieran.

“What’s up?” asked Kieran.

Karl looked at Kieran hesitantly, “Are we sure we’re not going to find Mrs Hernandez?”

The question was obviously unnecessary Kieran gave Karl a cold look “No Let her cool down.”

“But Mrs. Hernandez is with Mr. Sanches Karl said with great courage. Because as soon as he said the

first part, Kieran’s face had

completely darkened

About half a minute of silence, Kieran suddenly stood up from the couch, looking coldly at Karl, “Get

the car ready!”

Karl immediately turned to prepare the car. He then heard Kieran suddenly say behind him, “Wait.

Prepare a rope too!”

was speechless

Keran now understood what Hayden had meant earlier. He had already known that Elliot was in

Oakhurst! It seemed that Hayden had come prepared today

Hayden understood Kieran He knew Kieran wouldn’t be threatened by the National Security Agency or

Julien, and he wouldn’t go to Dakhurst to bring Julie bark just because of a simple word from Julien

If Kieran didn’t go to Oakhurst then Julien would definitely go, and Hayden didn’t want Julien to go find

Julie in Oakhurst. So, as long as he could get Elijot to appear ext to Julie, then the whole situation

would have a different outcome.

Hayden had quietly set a trap

The reason-Kart was so nervous to mention this to Kieran was because he feared that this was all

Hayden’s arrangement.

However, the truth was Julie and Elliot in Oakhurst really happened to meet each other!

Julie ran into Elliot at Oakhurst Hospital

When she saw Elliot, Julie thought she was hallucinating

At that time, Elliot was covered in blood, his white shirt completely dyed red, it was terrifying

When Julie saw Elliot, bloody and stepping out of the ambulance, her whole body froze…

The hospital entrance was surrounded by the ambulance’s siren.

Although Elliot was covered in blood he wasn’t the one being carried on the stretcher. On the stretcher

was a woman with long hair. Her

hair was soaked with sweat, sticking to her face, it was horrifying.

After getting out of the ambulance, Elliot frowned and tried to adjust his shirt, seemingly wanting to take

it off, but seemingly considering this was a public place, he gave up in the end.

Julie wasn’t sure if the man in front of her was Elliot. If it was, why would Elliot, who was supposed to

be in Whispering Pines, suddenly appear in Oakhurst? If not, this man must be Elliot’s twin, otherwise,

how could there be two people in the world that looked so alike? Like a copy-paste job.

Just as Julie was staring at this man, he also looked up at Julie. Then…

“Julie? Why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to be in Whispering Pines?” Elliot looked at Julie in

surprise. After a few seconds of silence, he quickly walked over to Julie.

Julie finally confirmed that the man in front of her was indeed Elliot…

“Why are you in Oakhurst? Julie didn’t answer Elliot’s question, but instead asked him this question.

Elliot felt he couldnt explain it all in a jiffy, so he just looked at Julie and said, ‘It’s a long story. How

about we find a place to sit down and I’ll tell you?”

Elliot glanced down at his blood stained shirt, gave a wry smile and said, “But first, you might need to

accompany me to the mall.”

“The mall? Now?” Julie’s eyes darted towards the operating room not far away. She wordlessly

questioned Elliot about his relationship with the woman he was just with.

Elliot calmly glanced at the operating room, then casually explained to Julie, “I happened to run into a

pregnant woman who was miscarrying on the street, so I called the ambulance for her. She was

clutching my hand, so I ended up in the ambulance with her.”

What a coincidence? Julie was skeptical, but Elliot had already taken her hand and was leading her

towards the restaurant across the hospital.

As they walked, he asked Julie, “What brings you to Oakhurst Hospital?”

I’m considering transferring Sansa here, so I came to check out the facilities, Julie replied.

Elliot looked at Julie in surprise. “You live in Whispering Pines, why would you want to transfer Sansa

here? Unless…

Realization dawned on Elliot, he looked at Julie and said, “You’re planning to move Sansa to Oakhurst?

What about Kieran…”

Elliot looked at Julie, clearly delighted, “You’re planning to cut ties with Kieran completely?”

Why was Elliot so happy? Julie raised the corner of her mouth, changing the topic, “Why are you

here?”

Elliot, who was just excited, suddenly quietened down. He said, “Adeline Sanches is missing”

“Oh…” Julie nodded blankly, then widened her eyes at Elliot, “Missing?”

Elliot nodded.

Julie wanted to ask why Adeline would go missing, but didn’t. It was Adeline’s private matter. She had

no right to pry.

After ordering. Elliot turned to Julie. “Could I use your phone to call Adeline?”

Julle handed her phone to Elliot.

Elliot put the call on speaker and dialed Adeline’s number. To his surprise, she picked up.

The first thing Adeline said was, “Did you check? Has Elliot caught up with me?”

Elliot paused. Apparently, Adeline was intentionally avoiding him.

To prevent Adeline from hanging up once she found out it was him, Elliot quickly passed the phone to

Julie.

Julie hesitated, glancing at Elliot, then said, “Ms. Sanches, this is Julie.”

‘Julle?” Adeline exclaimed. “Isn’t this Larson’s number?”

Julie said, “I changed my phone.”

Elliot quickly typed a message on his phone and showed it to Julie: Don’t let her know

Julie nadded. While Adeline was still on the line, she said, “I was wondering if I could pay you back the

money I owe you all at once.”

Elliot immediately nodded and gave Julie a thumbs-up. Adeline’s voice came over the phone, “Why

does your phone show you’re in Dakhurst?”

“Because I’m actually in Oakhurst. I’m planning to transfer my sister to Oakhurst Hospital. So I was

wondering if we could meet up when I return to Whispering Pines in a few days?”

“Elliot didn’t contact you, did he?” Adeline asked.

Elliot, sitting across from Julie, felt a bit dizzy.

Julie glanced at Elliot and replied, “No. Mr. Sanches and I don’t have that kind of relationship.”

Right, they just bumped into each other today.

Julie clearly heard Adeline sigh in relief.

“I’m close to Oakhurst right now. Why don’t you come find me directly? I have something to discuss

with you. If Elliot calls you, don’t tell him where I am, understand?” Adeline warned sternly.

Julie looked at Elliot across the table and responded, “Okay.”
