Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 229 I Really Want to Marry You

Maisie was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, Ezra had already picked up the wine glass in front of him and raised his head to drink.

Julian saw Ezra's actions from afar and glanced at Ezra's hand that was holding Maisie's arm. His face darkened slightly.

Isn't it enough for Emelia to make him sadder overnight? Ezra was still doing more there.

After Ezra drank up the wine, Nina applauded and said, "Wow, Mr. Cantillo, you saved the beauty. Great."

Ezra didn't say anything and sat down with Maisie.

"Thank you." Maisie thanked him and withdrew her hand.

Emelia pursed her lips and glanced at Ezra, feeling a little angry.

It was not that Ezra didn't know that Maisie was a good girl. He didn't take love seriously, so why should he provoke Maisie?

The game continued for a few more rounds. Just as everyone suggested that it would be the final round, when Julian was turning the bottle around, he aimed the bottle at Emelia. Emelia chose truth, and had to face the question that he had proposed.

Julian stared at her with his dark eyes and asked calmly, "Is Viggo really your boyfriend?"

Emelia pursed her lips and glared at him.

She finally understood the reason why Ezra asked them to play such a game tonight. It seemed that all of them were pave the way for this question.

If it were in the past, Emelia would have tried her best to deny it, but tonight she felt a little tired.

First of all, she didn't want Julian to scheme against her because of this. Didn't he feel tired?

Secondly, she had indeed removed the nominal relationship between her and Viggo, so she finally admitted frankly, "We already broke up from the so-called relationship."

Julian raised his eyebrows and couldn't help smiling. Obviously, he was very satisfied with her answer.

The others present didn't look too surprised, as if they were sure that she couldn't be real girlfriend of Viggo.

Emelia was a bit depressed. No wonder Julian had insisted on forcing her to admit this matter. He definitely didn't believe it either, but she didn't confess before, which was why he had come up with this idea. Ezra said, "Perfect!"

"The game tonight is over. Come on, cheer up." As Ezra spoke, he raised his glass.

Julian slowly raised his glass, giving Emelia a meaningful look.

Emelia ignored him and raised his glass to drink.

After the gathering ended, the group of people left the restaurant. Julian walked to one side and received a call. When Emelia inadvertently looked over, she noticed that his face was pale, as if something bad had happened.

Not long after, Julian hung up the phone and walked to her. He whispered sadly, "Grandpa fainted at home and just went to the hospital."

"He fainted?" Emelia's heart clenched.

Julian added, "Can you go to the hospital with me? I'm afraid that he..."

Before he could finish his words, Emelia nodded in agreement. Grandpa Hughes treated her like his own granddaughter, and she had wanted to visit him another day.

She had also experienced such a big thing as recognizing Vincent. By rights, she should have talked to an elder like grandpa who cared about her. However, before she went to see him, he entered the hospita first.

The others were also very worried about Grandpa Hughes's situation and expressed their concern.

Julian didn't know what was going on with his grandpa either. He only knew that he was really in a bad mood.

He didn't have much feelings for his father, but he had deep feelings for his grandpa.

Since he was sensible and went to school, he had been taught by his grandpa. 80% of his knowledge of doing business was from his grandpa.

Thinking that his grandpa's situation was very bad, Julian couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

When they arrived at the hospital, the two got out of the car. When they were about to the ward, he whispered Emelia's name in a low voice, "Emelia." Emelia stopped and turned to look at him. "What's wrong?"

Julian raised his eyes, which were full of sadness. "If Grandpa's situation is not good, can you be with me again in order to make him feel at ease?" Emelia replied simply, "I'm sorry."

She couldn't.

She had just promised Viggo about this some time ago, and now she didn't want to fall into such a mess again.

Although she also wanted to make grandpa happy, she didn't want to lose her feelings. Emelia also believed that the grandpa definitely didn't want to see her and Julian being together again in this way. Julian's expression was very hurt. "You can help Viggo, but why can't you help me?"

Emelia only found it ridiculous. "Julian, don't you think it's so funny between us?"

"Four years ago, in order to make grandpa feel at ease, you married me reluctantly. Are you going to repeat your mistakes now?"

As Emelia spoke, she suddenly felt inexplicably wronged. What did he think her feelings were? What did he think she was?

"Does he always treat me as a tool to make his grandfather happy?"

"Emelia..."Seeing that Emelia's eyes had turned red, he immediately panicked. "It's been four years. I want you back, not to make mistakes again, but to start over."

"I don't mean to hurt you. I really want to marry you this time."

"Let's go and see grandpa first." After finishing her words, Emelia turned and left, making him swallow back what he was about to say.

Whether it was true or false, she didn't need it now.

Julian could only follow her, not knowing how to convince her.

When they arrived at grandpa's ward, he had just woken up.

According to the doctor, grandpa was not in danger.

Perhaps it was because he was getting old, or maybe it was because the weather had suddenly become cold recently that he felt a lot uncomfortable, but he had been holding it back and did not even tell the housekeeper.

He probably couldn't hold on any longer tonight, so he fainted.

Hearing this, Emelia's heart ached. She stepped forward and gently scolded him, "Grandpa, how can you hold on when you're not feeling well?"

He was very happy to see her visit him with Julian.

He simply ignored Emelia's question and asked in a weak but expectant tone, "Why are you here together so late at night?"

Before Emelia could say anything, Julian, who was next to her, explained calmly, "We have dinner with Ezra and the others." Julian's words shattered all the expectations in grandpa's heart. The light in his eyes dimmed, and he responded weakly, "Oh." He thought that the couple had reconciled.

Well, in fact, he also knew that how could it be so easy to reconcile?

Emelia was such a gentle person. If she hadn't really been hurt, how could she have decided to divorce with him?

Since she was so badly hurt, how could she reconcile with him so easy?☐☐☐☐☐☐
