Love's Cunning Ruse novel Chapter 110

Actually, it seemed a bit intentional for Julie to bring up Kieran's son at this point.

Julie and Kieran had been at each other's throats for a long time, but during this time, both had tacitly avoided this topic. Kieran would return to Noblewood Retreat every night, but Julie never saw any trace of Kieran's son there. It was as if his son had never set foot in Noblewood Retreat.

Of course, Julie didn't know that before she moved in, the entire Noblewood Retreat had been thoroughly cleaned up.

Bringing up Kieran's son at this moment wasn't exactly a wise move. Kieran's son was a painful reminder of their past.

But she brought it up anyway.

Kieran was distracted. Julie seized the opportunity to snatch his phone from his hands and quickly got up.

Unfortunately...

She still didn't know Kieran's phone password, so even though she had the phone, she couldn't achieve her goal.

"Delete the photo, including the backup!" She commanded sternly.

Kieran took back his phone, apparently forgetting the topic of his son. He cast a contemplative gaze at Julie. "What's in it for me if I delete it?"

Julie was livid. "It's my photo! It's wrong for you to keep it, and now you want benefits?"

She sat next to him, firmly stating, "Mr. Hernandez, self-respect is a nice thing to have!"

"You're a nice thing to have too."

This meant that he thought she was worth having as well. But Julie responded without hesitation, "You're not worthy!"

Kieran's eyes dimmed. He felt he could write a book titled, "What to do with a stubborn ex-wife?"

Julie thought Kieran's expression was a bit too intense. She was afraid he'd lose his temper, so she just stared at him in silence.

When the room fell into silence, he finally spoke with a hint of interest, "If you want me to delete all the photos, I can..."

"So?" It was clear Kieran was trying to make her ask what his conditions were.

The man leaned against the headboard, looking at her invitingly, "Come here."

"Forget it, if you don't want to delete it, then don't!" Julie felt she couldn't control his actions and thoughts. Rather than stubbornly arguing with him about deleting the photo, it was better to avoid trouble. After all, she was planning to move out tomorrow.

Just as Julie was thinking this, he suddenly gave her the phone. "The password is the room number from our first stay at the Starlight Haven Hotel."

Julie's hand trembled slightly as she held the phone. Room number? That was just too much.

She casually threw the phone back at him, absentmindedly replying, "I don't remember."

He shoved the phone back into her hands, kindly reminding her, "7401. Don't forget next time."

She didn't want to remember that number, but the truth was, Julie remembered it very clearly. This time she didn't pretend, she took the phone and opened the gallery. Kieran hadn't lied. The photo of her was really there.

There were only two photos in Kieran's gallery. One was their marriage certificate, and the other was the photo Julie desperately wanted to delete.

Without hesitation, she deleted the photo she wanted to delete, but her finger paused on the photo of their marriage certificate. She didn't hesitate for too long, and without Kieran's approval, she quickly swiped her finger and deleted it along with the other photo.

Then she gave the phone back to Kieran. She glanced at Kieran. "You should delete all the other backups as well! I didn't keep any naked photos of you, so this isn't fair to me."

"Do you want me to take off my robe so you can take a picture now?" The man took the phone and unlocked it.

Julie completely ignored Kieran's question, got up, and walked towards the door. "I guess I'm sharing a bed with Ivan tonight!"

"Hold on!" Kieran's voice suddenly came from behind Julie.

Despite the years that had passed, Julie couldn't change her nature. She stopped in her tracks.
