Chapter 71 Visiting Fabiana

Julian's spine stiffened. She was overwhelmed by embarrassment and discomfort. More than anything, she felt wronged and angry.

This caused her expression to become quite awkward.

After a few seconds, she turned her head to look at Francis and caught a glimpse of the indifference in his eyes. Julian's heart sank along with it, and she came to a conclusion.

It seemed that he was not in a good mood today.

Having been with Francis for so long, Julian might not have learned much, but she had become quite adept at reading his expressions.

So at this moment, if she were to act impulsively and cut her wrist, there was a high chance he wouldn't care.

She paused for a moment, threw the knife on the table, and pounced towards him, burying herself in his arms.

"I've waited for this birthday for a year, but you just asked Nelson to give me a gift, which was so perfunctory. Do you know how upset I am?" Julian's voice was filled with genuine grievance.

She knew that the only person who could make him ignore her was that dummy!

Julian knew how to submit to him and act coquettish. Francis's gloomy face softened a lot as he hugged Julian's waist and said, "I'll make it up to you another day."

Julian raised her head and looked at his handsome face. Pouting, she muttered, "Really?"

"Yeah."

"You can't stand me up again."

"Okay." Saying this, Francis glanced at her ankle. "Is it healed?"

"It's much better, just a little painful when walking." Julian hugged his neck and coquettishly said, "Carry me over."

Francis didn't refuse her and bent down to carry her in his arms, walking towards the living room.

Julian held onto his neck and said in a dull voice, "I haven't eaten yet, so accompany me for a meal."

Francis glanced at her and nodded. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Marie cleared the table and prepared a new set of food, replacing the candles with new ones.

The weather had turned cold, and it had been drizzling for several days.

After getting drenched in the rain, Lilian had a high fever again. She curled up on the bed in a daze, not knowing what day it was.

In the floating dreams, it seemed like she had been forgotten by everyone.

The only good thing was that being dizzy was better than being awake.

Lilian felt fortunate that she didn't need medicine or injections. She had endured the fever in bed for three days, and it eventually subsided on its own.

Francis probably wanted to keep his promise to Julian and not see her for a month. So, since that night, Lilian hadn't seen him come back.

Lilian got up from the bed, took a shower, changed her clothes, and grabbed an umbrella as she left Azure Shores.

Courtney had transferred the money she had borrowed from Lilian at some point. Lilian used the money to buy many things, including a mobile phone.

Lilian carried the things and went to find Fabiana.

It was raining today, so Fabiana didn't go out to pick up trash. She huddled in her small shed. Before Lilian even approached, she could hear Fabiana coughing.

Lilian walked quickly and knocked on the shed.

Fabiana opened the wet curtain and saw Lilian. Her cloudy eyes instantly lit up.

"Lily, why are you here?" As she said, she quickly got off the bed to receive the things.

Lilian looked around and realized that there didn't seem to be any place to put the things besides the shed. She placed the things at the end of the bed and sat down next to Fabiana.

"You don't look well. Are you sick?" Fabiana asked with concern.

Lilian smiled and shook her head, taking out the newly bought basic phone from her pocket and handing it to Fabiana.

She used sign language to say, "My phone number is already saved in it. If you need anything, just give me a call."

"No, this won't do. It's too valuable. Besides, an old woman like me doesn't need a phone."

Lilian gestured that it was a second-hand phone and not worth much. She urged Fabiana to take it, saying that it would be convenient for them to contact each other in the future.
