Love's Cunning Ruse novel Chapter 131

Now Julie understood why Adeline had told her not to hate her... At this point, Julie was beyond pissed at Adeline, she was downright murderous.

This time, Julie didn't stop, nor did she turn around because of Kieran's words. She quickened her pace, bolting in the opposite direction to Kieran.

Julie was at her wit's end. She hailed a taxi and said frantically to the driver, "Step on it!"

However, just as the taxi driver hit the gas, a black Jaguar appeared out of nowhere, blocking their way.

If the driver hadn't reacted so quickly, they might have crashed into the car.

The driver was fuming that he rolled down his window and began to rant. Without a doubt in her mind, Julie knew who the Jaguar belonged to, so she opened the taxi door to make a run for it.

But then, five or six men in black suits appeared out of nowhere, surrounding the taxi.

The driver, who was yelling just a moment ago, was now frozen with fear.

Seeing Kieran closing in on the taxi, Julie hurriedly yelled at the driver, "Lock the doors!"

The driver was startled by Julie's shout and hurriedly pressed the lock button.

When Kieran approached the taxi, he tried to open the door, but couldn't...

"Julie, get out. I need to talk to you." Kieran's voice came from outside the car door.

The driver was about to call the police. Suddenly, he saw a man outside the window holding a window breaker, gesturing and shouting, "Open the door or back up!"

The taxi driver, with thirty years of experience under his belt, had never encountered such a situation.

The man outside didn't seem like someone he could handle, so he had no choice but to unlock the door. Julie was cornered. Kieran opened the door and yanked her out.

On the way from the coffee shop to the hotel, Julie was very quiet, and didn’t resist, because...

That jerk Kieran had actually had Karl bring a rope.

Before getting in the car, Julie did struggle, but then Karl walked up to Kieran, rope in hand.

Kieran looked at Julie and said, "It's your choice. Do you want to go alone, or should I let Karl tie you up and take you away?"

After he finished speaking, a bunch of men in black closed in.

In the end, Julie got in the car herself. Did she have any other choice?

On the way from the coffee shop to the hotel, neither Julie nor Kieran said a word.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Karl felt a chill down his spine. The atmosphere in the back seat was even more tense.

Fortunately, before long, the car pulled up at the hotel.

"Get out." Kieran's commanding voice ordered Julie.

Julie closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep.

Kieran didn't argue with her, he simply leaned over and carried her out of the car.

"Are you really doing this?" Julie opened her eyes, looking at Kieran.

Her calm tone was even colder than Adeline's had been.

Kieran didn't answer her question, he just carried her into the elevator.

After Karl pressed a floor, he handed the room card to Kieran and quickly exited the elevator.

"Put me down." Julie looked up at Kieran.

"I have something to say." He replied.

"I have nothing to say to you." Julie asked Kieran, "Will you let me go or not?"

"No."

As soon as Kieran finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his neck.

Kieran had a long neck, which made him look particularly classy in a white shirt and suit. Julie bit him on the neck without holding back.

Though his neck stung, Kieran still didn't let go.

As the elevator door opened, Julie heard him say, "I never thought about letting you go."

This sentence rang out with the sound of the elevator door opening. Julie wasn't sure if she had heard him right.

All in all, because of this sentence, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Kieran carried her into the hotel suite, then put her on the bed.

In that instant, all of Julie's anger boiled over.
