Chapter 46
Julie was quite good at taking a jab, but Kieran just smiled it off every time. In a blink, when Kieran was
off guard, Julie snatched his phone and hung up
his call.
Kieran didn’t take it easy. Julie wanted to snatch back the phone, but she knew she was no match for
him. So, she just quietly resumed her meal.
In their marital life, Julie had learned to put up with him and adapt.
Kieran casually unlocked Julie’s phone without a passcode, then dialed her number with his phone.
Hearing the busy tone, he knew he’d been blocked by Julie. No surprise there.
Kieran removed his number from Julie’s blocklist, labeled his contact as ‘Ex–husband, and handed
back the phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Ex–husband on her screen, Julie turned green with infuriation. “What the hell, Kieran?”
“Just like this, you won’t be able to scam anyone anymore,” Kieran said nonchalantly.
Scam? He was giving her too much credit! Was he implying that she deliberately crashed his car
yesterday, trying to get close to him?
Julie tosses her phone on the table, staring at Kieran. “I’m broke, you can only wait for my accidental
compensation
“You mean, you’d rather die than give in?” Kieran chuckled, picking up his cup for a sip of water.
Julie wanted to tell him she had just drank from that cup, but she held back. If he wanted to drink, why
should she care?
“Give me some time, I’ll pay for the car repair, she said.
“How long is ‘some time? A lifetime?” he retorted.
Julie snorted, “Didn’t expect Mr. Hernandez to be this naive, believing in ‘a lifetime“.”
After a moment of silence, Julie looked at Kieran. “I’ll pay you back, even if I have to sell my blood, or
myself. Give me your bank account, I’ll transfer the money when I have it. I’m broke now, there’s no
point pushing me.”
Julie was usually mild–mannered, but when pushed to the edge, she could go to the extreme. Kieran
knew it. So he didn’t make things harder for her, but he didn’t leave his bank account with her either.
Instead he pulled out a bank card from his wallet and handed it to Julie. “Deposit the money into this
card when you have it.”
It was Kieran’s secondary card, with his name engraved on it, and no limit. He left the card and
prepared to leave.
“Wait!” Julie suddenly stopped Kieran, asking. “What’s the password of the card?”
“The date of our divorce” After saying that, Kieran left Julie with his handsome back facing her.
Julie was dumbfounded for a while. Her phone had been ringing for quite some time, vibrating on the

After Daphne’s call was abruptly hung up, she grew worried and decided to call again. Julie pocketed
the card and answered the call.
*Julie, are you okay?” Daphne’s concerned voice was heartwarming.
“I’m fine, I was just fooling around.”
“Oh good, glad you’re okay” Daphne didn’t criticize her for the joke, instead, she said, “There’s an
anniversary celebration at our alma mater tomorrow
Would you
like to come with me? There will be lots of outstanding alumni, some will even give speeches. The
news always makes a big fuss about our alumni. I’m planning to go too. You know I just recovered from
my illness, and I need someone to help me carry the camera. You’re free now, right? I’ll pay you with
the magazine’s budget, ok?”
“Sure but pay me a little extra, Julie agreed with a laugh.
