Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 58

Grant never saw it coming, Kieran popping up out of nowhere at a moment like this. Least of all, Kieran unexpectedly carried Julie in his arms right in front of everyone

Julie was as white as a sheet, her face glistening with sweat, making it particularly noticeable.

Kieran calmly told Karl who stood behind him, “Go start the car After saying this, he took off his coal, draped it over Julie’s head, and with all eyes on him, carried her out

Many staff members pulled out their phones to snap photos, leaving Grant stunned. It took him a while to snap out of it. By the time he reacted and managed to chase after them, Kieran had already put Julie into the car.

When Julie woke up again, she found herself lying in a hospital bed Groggily, she opened her eyes and saw the IV drip hanging overhead. Her memory stopped at the moment she fainted and fell into Grant’s arms after leaving the restroom,

However, when she opened her eyes, the first person she saw was Karl. Seeing Julie awake, Karl immediately stood up from the couch. “How are you feeling?”

Jube didn’t have the strength to argue with Karl’s question, she just asked, “What are you doing here?” She tried to sit up a bit

Karl explained, “Julie, you’ve got gastroenteritis from load poisoning Kieran brought you to the hospital”

“Where is he now Julie intended to ask about Kierans whereabouts but stopped midway She assumed he must have rushed her to the hospital out of urgency, there was no reason for him to stick around.

However, Kari told her. “Kieran stepped out for a bit, he should be back soon. He was the one who carried you here.”

“What else?” In Julie’s mind, Karl wasn’t a man of many words. Yet he was emphasizing the word personally so much, was he trying to hint at something? That she held some kind of significant place in Kieran’s heart?

Karl felt that Julie had changed. He looked at Julie and said, “Before you woke up, Kieran was here with you. If you want to know how Kieran brought you to the hospital, you can check out the trending topics on twitter

With that said, Karl turned around and walked out the door.

After Karl left, Julie pulled out her phone. She hadn’t expected that what had just happened in the Simpo Co. lobby had already been captured in full by someone. Luckily, Kieran had covered her face with his coat, which had saved her from being exposed. Otherwise, it would be her that netizens were searching for, given that the situation with Kieran and Creative Nexus Media was currently trending

Julie frustratingly ran her fingers through her hair. A nurse who just entered the room was startled by her behavior and forgot to even close the door. The nurse pushed her cart towards Julie

Julie quickly fixed her hair and smiled at the nurse. After the nurse removed Julie’s IV, she quickly turned around and left.

Outside the hospital room.

Ivan quickly passed by Julie’s hospital room, followed by a group of bodyguards and nannies. Originally, he was intending to run away, but he suddenly stopped in his tracks, quickly looking back at the nanny, Was that my mom in the room just now?”

“Dont start this again. The nanny hadn’t finished her sentence when Ivan darted towards Julie’s room.

Ivan burst into Julie’s room, yelling excitedly. ‘Mom, it’s really you, it’s me, Ivan!” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Julie had just finished getting her IV removed and was about to be discharged when a kid suddenly ran to her side, hugging her thigh Julie glanced down at Ivan who was clinging to her and was initially startled, then overwhelmingly surprised. She hadn’t expected to run into this kid under such circumstances.

The nannies and bodyguards outside were also taken aback by ivan’s behavior.

Julie squatted down, patting Ivan’s head, patiently saying. Ivan, I’m not your morn

“Yes you are!” Ivan looked at Julie resolutely, seemingly refusing to change his address for her

Julie couldn’t help but laugh. “Well, if you say so.

Ivan smiled satisfactorily revealing two adorable dimples, “Mom, are you sick?”

Seeing Ivan’s concerned expression, Julie felt a soft spot in her heart. She ruffled Ivan’s hair, smiling as she replied, Tm fine.”

Julie looked up at the nannies and bodyguards outside the room, then looked back down at Ivan, “Why are you at the hospital?”

At this Ivan seemed unhappy. He glared at the nanny, “I’m so old now, and they still want to give me shots”

Despite feeling bad, the nanny told the truth, “You’re only five and a half, you’re supposed to get shots

Seeing Ivan’s speechless expression, Julie couldnt help but laugh.

Ivan turned to look at Julie, “Mom, why didn’t you answer my calls?”

Facing Ivan’s serious question, Julie didn’t know how to respond Although she had thought about this adorable kid these past few days, she didn’t take the kid’s words to heart. She hadn’t realized that a casual promise she made would be taken so seriously by the kid

This little boy didn’t seem to mind it, rather he boldly looked at Julie and asked, “Can you accompany me to get my shots? The nurse isn’t as pretty as you, if you’re there, it will hurt less”

After he finished speaking, Ivan tugged at Julie, pulling her towards the door Julie was a little surprised that a kid so young already knew how to court girls,

In the end, Julie was dragged by Ivan to the door. Inside the room, the head nurse was waiting anxiously Seeing Ivan, she immediately approached,

Clapier JO

“Getting a shot is just like a mosquito bite, it won’t hurt.”

Ivan glared at the head nurse, puffing up his chest, “Who said I was scared of pain?”

At this point, the head nurse noticed Julie and said, “You must be his new nanny…”

“You’re wrong, she’s my mom!” Ivan’s little hand forcefully grabbed Julie’s, and he proudly declared

Seeing the head nurse’s expression, Julie knew that she must have gotten the wrong idea, and was about to explain. But Ivan, impatient, said to the head nurse, “Come on, give me a shot already! I ain’t scared of pain!”

Finishing his sentence, Ivan rolled up his sleeves and extended his slender arm to the head nurse.

Finally, Ivan agreed to get his vaccination. The head nurse immediately grabbed the vial and the syringe. Upon seeing the needle, Ivan was clearly terrified. He turned to look at Julie, his face unwilling His disgust and fear were plainly visible to Julie, but he braced himself, refusing to show his fear.

Seeing him, Julie’s heart softened. She stepped forward and let the little guy bury his face in her chest, softly saying, “Ivan, you’re so brave.”

The cold needle pierced his skin. Julie could clearly feel Ivan shiver in her arms

She stretched out her hand, gently, repeatedly patting the little boy’s back. After the shot was done, the nurse pulled out the needle. Julie helped the little guy press a cotton swab on the wound. Ivan finally lifted his head, his clear eyes full of expectation as he looked at Julie, “Mommy, am I brave?”

Knowing the little guy wanted praise, Julie smiled and said, “Ivan is the bravest child I’ve ever met.”

Upon hearing the compliment, Ivan immediately waved at Julie happily Thinking he had something to say, Julie bent down to him. Unexpectedly, Ivan gave her a peck on the cheek, then blushed shyly and said, “That’s how I show I like you.”

Julie was taken aback. Did she just get kissed by a little boy?

Julie looked helplessly at the blushing little guy and asked, “Ivan, where are your parents?

How did they raise their child? He’s so adorable.

Hearing Julie mention his parents, Ivan was stunned at first, then said, “My dad, he’s been in the news. He’s accompanying a beautiful lady to the hospital, leaving poor me, a child with no one to care for or love, all alone in the hospital. Julie, I’m pitiful, right?”

Ivan propped up his face with his hands, looking at Julie with sad eyes.

Julie had heard from Ivan before that he didn’t have a mother. Her heart softened, she reached out to stroke Ivan’s soft hair, then squatted in front of him. Ivan suddenly asked her, “Do you have a job?”

Julie nodded.

“Why don’t you change jobs? My family needs a nanny as pretty as you,” Ivan said, then glanced unhappily at the group of nannies and bodyguards behind him.

Outside the door, Karl stood behind Kieran, unable to hold back his laughter.

Kieran turned around to see Karl trying to suppress his laughter, and gave him a cold look.

Karl immediately stifled his laughter, “I’m going to go get this beautiful lady…Julie’s hospital paperwork sorted out!”

With that, Karl quickly turned and left.
