“Mr. Johnson, do you hate me?” asked Julie as favonovel.com strode forward to catch up to Fabian.
After hearing Julie’s question, Fabian’s expression did not change in the slightest. 0n the other hand, Lillian raised favonovel.com head and was looking curiously at Julie with favonovel.com bright eyes. However, children’s minds were still innocent. She only looked at Julie for a second before continuing to walk forward with small steps.
At this moment, Fabian started to talk, “Why do you ask, Miss Charles?”
Julie internally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled out of embarrassment as Fabian finally acknowledged favonovel.com existence.
“It’s nothing. I just feel like I’ve done something wrong to make you not want to talk to me.”
“Miss Charles, you must be overthinking. You’re Lily’s teacher. I have nothing but respect for you. How could I feel hatred toward you?”
Fabian answered courteously, yet his answer sent a chill down favonovel.com spine.
Nothing but respect?
She fell into a trance for a moment until favonovel.com heard Fabian speak again.
“Plus, Lily likes you a lot. This morning, favonovel.com even asked the home chef to make tiramisu to give to you. Miss Charles, did you not see it? There’s a card inside the cake box with Lily’s own writing on it.”
Julie’s legs suddenly felt weak. It turned out that the tiramisu had nothing to do with Fabian. It was just Lillian’s token of appreciation. It was all just favonovel.com imagination, after all. A surge of loneliness overwhelmed favonovel.com heart as favonovel.com could not help but slow down favonovel.com footsteps.
When favonovel.com came back to favonovel.com senses, favonovel.com realized that Fabian and Lillian were already way ahead of her. When they were almost at the halfway mark, many of them sat down near the pavilion to rest, eat, and drink to replenish their energy.
Julie saw Fabian and the beautiful single mother sitting next to each other again. They talked and laughed while taking care of their little ones.
Julie had lost favonovel.com appetite. She took two sips of water and sat alone on a rock
The two female colleagues beside favonovel.com noticed and could probably guess what was going on. After having a little discussion, they walked toward Fabian.
Fabian was feeding Lillian snacks when favonovel.com noticed someone walking toward him. He looked up and saw the two teachers from other classes. The two female teachers walked up to Fabian and unintentionally glanced at the young single mother.
“Mr. Johnson, can we have a word with you?”
“Mr. Johnson, we’re Julie’s colleagues. There are some things we want to consult you about. We won’t take up too much of your time.”
After hearing their words, Fabian gently patted Lillian’s head. “Lily, be good and eat your food. I’ll be right back.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Johnson. I’ll watch over Lily.” The single mother politely expressed that favonovel.com would take care of Lily.
Fabian was rest assured and followed the two female teachers to the side.
“May I ask what is it that the two of you want to consult me about?” Fabian asked straight to the point.
The two female teachers looked at each other and put on straight faces.
“Mr. Johnson, although we’re not in a position to comment on your relationship with Julie, nor do we know what happened between the two of you, arguments aside, Julie would be very upset to see you talk and laugh with someone of the opposite gender while you give favonovel.com the cold shoulder.”
A female teacher spoke while deliberately glancing over at the single mother.
