Refusing 167
"Why are you here?" Harry was the first to speak.
When Julia saw that Harry's forehead and the back of his hand were bleeding, she could not help but frown. "Why are you here? What's wrong with the injuries?"
Harry smiled indifferently. "Not a big deal. I hit the railing when I was driving home."
Julia had long smelled the alcohol on Harry's body. "You're drinking and driving? Do you want to die?"
"I just wanted to go home as soon as possible. That's what socializing is like. I have no choice but to drink," Harry said helplessly. "You still haven't told me why you're here? Are you feeling unwell? I'll go find a doctor."
Seeing this, Harry was about to leave. Julia almost instinctively grabbed Harry's hand, but she accidentally touched his injury. Seeing Harry gasp, she immediately let go. "I'm fine. Alden said that you're in the hospital. So I came over to take a look." Hearing this, Harry decided to give Alden a pay raise tomorrow. I specifically told Alden not to tell you!" He said in a deep voice.
How could Julia know what Harry was thinking? Seeing that he was a little angry, she could not help but say harshly, "You think you're reasonable for DUI? Is it illegal for people to talk about it? Do you think that Alden is wrong to tell me? Then go look for Arya." Julia stared at him coldly. "Anyway, I have Arya's number. I'll tell her to hurry back to take care of you. She can't wait to be by your side. I won't be your barrier."
Harry could not let his injuries tonight be in vain. He quickly stopped Julia. "I didn't want Alden to tell you because I didn't want you to worry. It's just a small injury. It's nothing for me."NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Knowing that Julia was worried about him, Harry was overjoyed. "There's really nothing between me and Arya. Compared to her, I want you to be by my side more." Julia snorted. "I'm just here to see if you'll die."
"I know you're concerned about me." Harry pulled Julia to the bench. "Julia, do you know how happy I was when I saw you
come?"
Julia shook off his hand. "Then you're wrong. I'm very disappointed to see you safe. I'm even more disappointed not to see Arya by your side."
As long as Julia was willing to talk to him, even if she kept mentioning Arya, Harry would still be quite happy. This was a sign that Julia was caring about him. "Julia."
Julia was still very cold. She glanced at him and asked, "What?"
"I'm in pain," Harry said softly.
Julia was stunned. At this moment, the child sitting beside was crying loudly in his mother's arms. When he heard Harry's words, he immediately shouted at his mother, "If he is afraid of pain, then why am I not a man if I'm afraid?" Hearing this, Harry's expression changed slightly. Since he had already said it, he had no chance to hold it back.
I'm injured."
The little boy continued to cry as he said, "But that won't kill you. You said just now that it's not a big deal. So there is nothing wrong with that I'm also afraid of pain. It hurts!"

The young mother quickly picked up the boy and looked at Harry and Julia awkwardly. "I'm sorry. He is afraid of injections. He didn't mean it. I hope you don't mind." With that, she led her son away.
Harry's sadfishing act was mercilessly exposed by the child. The corners of Julia's mouth curled up as she sneered, "If you won't die, why are you acting so pathetic?"
Harry thought about how stupid he was that he accepted Troy's monsense and even deliberately injured himself just to arouse Julia's concern. What was he doing? In the end, he would be mocked by a little kid. Seeing that Harry did not speak, Julia pretended to leave, but Harry grabbed her tightly again.
The hand that grabbed Julia happened to be the injured one. If Julia could not tell that Harry did it on purpose, she must be the most stupid person in this world.
"Don't go." No matter what Harry did or said, the words "don't go still touched Julia's soft heart.
Alden rushed to the hospital after settling the car accident matters. He thought that he would see Julia and Harry arguing. But unexpectedly, he saw Harry holding Julia's hand and asking her not to leave. Alden knew that he had made the right decision to call Julia. Or he could not figure out why Harry insisted on not telling Julia so deliberately.
With Julia by his side, Alden knew that his mission was completed. He could not help but smile. He only hoped that after tonight, Harry and Julia would recover to their original state. He hoped that they would not cause any more trouble. Otherwise, innocent people would still be the ones injured.
When the doctor bandaged Harry's wound, he never thought that a handsome and tall man would be afraid of pain and play the victim before the cold woman beside him. At that time, the doctor's hand almost trembled, making Harry's wound
worse.
"You're finally willing to talk to me." Harry sat in the front passenger seat, still happy about it.
Julia held the steering wheel firmly "I'm just here to see you suffer."
Harry did not take Julia's words to heart.
After Harry was injured, Julia's attitude towards Harry had changed. At the very least, she would not neglect him. When she mentioned this to Valerie, she could not help but say, "Why do I feel that Harry is deliberately sadfishing in front of me?" Valerie held back her and said seriously, "It can't be. Why would a high and mighty person like Harry do this?"
"Really?" Julia did not quite believe Valerie's words. She believed in her own intuitions more. In the past, no matter how serious the injuries were, Harry did not even frown. This time, it was just a small scratch, but he kept complaining about the pain. He was like a paralyzed person who could not take care of himself.
"So you've reconciled with Harry now?" Valerie hit the key point. She looked at Julia curiously. "I think you guys are doing pretty well now. You can't keep going on a cold war with him. Didn't Harry promise you that there won't be a next time?" Julia nodded. "Forget it. Never trust a man's promise."
"If you were to divorce Harry immediately, you would definitely be reluctant to do so. Since that's the case, why don't you give each other a chance?" Valerie said in a deep voice. "Give him a chance, and also give yourself a chance. Can you convince yourself not to like Harry?" Julia fell silent. If Harry hadn't confessed to her, if he hadn't treated her so well, she might really have divorced him readily, especially before the two of them revealed their feelings. She had always buried her love for Harry in the bottom of her heart.
However, humans were such strange creatures, When they knew that their feelings could get a response, they would always want more. They had once thought that they could let go freely, but they could not.

Julia looked upset. If she had known carlier, she would have buried her love deep in her heart. This way, she could continue to pretend not to love Harry and continue to lie to herself.
Julia was distracted and did not see the person walking towards her so they accidentally bumped into each other.
