Chapter 105 Julian Was with Him

The message was sent but received no response, and Lilian anxiously waited while tightly holding her phone.

She waited for a full twenty minutes, but there was still no reply.

Fabiana looked at her as her face gradually darkened. She couldn't help but hold Lilian's hand and said, "Lily, I appreciate your kindness. Thank you, really."

Paul, who had finished eating an orange on the other side, turned around and asked, "Still not resolved? The Landau family is so rich. Don't tell me you don't even have 100 thousand dollars."

Lilian looked at Fabiana's face, bit her lip, and dialed Francis's phone.

The call connected, but it wasn't Francis who answered.

"Lilian, Frank is busy right now. If you have something, just send him a message." It was Julian's voice.

Lilian's heart sank completely, and she lost all hope.

Julian hung up the phone and placed it back on Francis's desk, saying, "That dummy called you. I don't know what it's about."

Francis picked up his phone and glanced at WhatsApp. His gaze flickered, and he chose to ignore it, throwing the phone back.

His actions successfully made Julian smile. She leaned close to Francis, held his arm, and said, "I'll go sign the contract with the agent this afternoon. You promised to make me a big star. You won't

go back on your word, right?"

Francis put down the documents, held Julian's hand, and smiled slightly. "Have you packed everything?"

Julian glared at him angrily. "Yes, I've packed everything! Do you not want to see me so badly?"

Francis looked down, his gaze falling on her fancy nail art. "It's not that I don't want to see you. It's just that you're really not suitable for working here."

"You still despise me!" Julian pulled her hand back as if she was mad.

Francis glanced at her and said blandly, "Do you know how many people complain about you here?"

"So what?" Julian said self-righteously, "It's because you indulge me. They hate me, and you're half responsible!"

Francis raised an eyebrow, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Julian bent down, hugged Francis, and kissed him on the cheek. "Then I'll leave, okay?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Be careful on the way."

Only then did Julian let go of him and walk back to her desk. She carried her things and walked out.

All she could think about now was becoming a star, being in the spotlight, and shining brightly.

Actually, Julian wasn't stupid. If Francis didn't agree to marry her, she had no guarantee, so she might as well use Francis's connections and resources to benefit herself. It could be considered as a form of security.

Francis had pampered her too much over the years. If he really didn't want her in the future, she would have nothing.

Having money in hand was the most reassuring thing.

And her portrayal of being sexy and brainless was just to appear without ulterior motives in front of Francis. Just like Francis said, those who wrote everything on their face were the most easily controlled.

So she was living a comfortable life now. Francis would fulfill her every request, giving her whatever she wanted.

She didn't even bother to trouble Lilian, not only because it wouldn't end well but also because it was unnecessary.

If she wanted to marry Francis, the problem was with Francis, not with Lilian.

The initiative in Lilian and Francis's marriage was never in Lilian's hands. She wouldn't target Lilian unless she was insane.

On the other hand, Lilian had given up on borrowing money from Francis and had no choice but to send a message to Courtney.

Courtney quickly replied, "Lily, what do you need so much money for? All my cards are frozen now, and I don't have that much money, but don't worry. I'll ask my brother."

Courtney called Lester. As soon as he heard that she needed 100 thousand dollars, he hung up without even thinking about it.
