The difference this time was that the cruise ship only had less than 50 people on board, making it look very spacious.
Julian as the host walked past all the guests and climbed to the mini podium provided in the middle of the ship. Julian tapped his microphone three times to make sure it was on. Julian, with his heart pounding, began to greet his guests.
"Good afternoon, my honored guests." Julian's booming voice made all the guests stop their activities and gather around the podium.
Julian flashed a faint smile when everyone appreciated the event he made. Julian felt happy and proud to be in the midst of these successful people. Julian did not expect that

A few days passed, and Julian was back to his routine. However, Julian's mind still couldn't get away from Serena. Serena's figure continues to overshadow Julian throughout the day. Julian even got unfocused with some of his office work, but did not dare to call Serena first.“Focus, Julian.” Julian shook his head and realized he had been sitting for fifteen minutes in front of his desk without doing anything.Suddenly his cell phone rang and Julian immediately picked it up. Julian hoped it was news from Serena, but unfortunately, it was not. The name that appeared on Julian's cell phone screen was none other than Aurora, his wife. Julian snorted in disappointment before finally sliding the green button and picking it up.“Hello,” Julian said first and continued the work before him.“Can we meet at the usual cafe?” Aurora asked in a flat tone.“What time? I still have a lot of work to do,” explained Julian who was completely plain.“After work, let me know if you are finished. I'll go

“Do you know that guy?” asked my friend who was looking at Julian. I didn't want to look back at all and just answered, “Just ignore him.” “Do you still like flirting with guys like that?” I didn't want to answer because I was a little offended by her words. I became a woman who was known for flirting with men, but that wasn't the case. I was once cheated on by my boyfriend and it drove me crazy. For years, I tried to move on from him by seeking release from other men. From there, I became known as a woman who liked to flirt with other men, both married and single. “I have to go, I have some business,” I lied to my friend because I felt uncomfortable with her attitude. “Serena, wait!” I tried to cover my ears and walked out of the cafe. I passed Julian unceremoniously and then got into the car. I immediately started the car engine and drove away from the cafe. I have no other purpose and no business, I just want to calm my mind. Suddenly, my cell phone lit up and a messag

Elijah, who had fallen on the floor quite hard, immediately got up. Now, several pairs of eyes began to stare at them. Serena, still surprised, could only stand and stare at the back of the man who saved her. Elijah, who did not accept it, pushed the body of Julian, the man who saved Serena.“Don't interfere! This is my business with Serena,” he said firmly.“But she doesn't want it,” replied Julian, who looked very defensive of Serena.Julian looked back and saw Serena still standing. Julian looked at Serena warmly and took her hand. Elijah, upon observing Julian's behavior, promptly removed Julian's shirt.“What are you doing holding her hand?” Elijah became angry. “You have nothing to do with this, let her go or I will.” Elijah's words were cut off.“Do what you want, but Serena is coming home with me.” Julian set his jaw hard as he stared intently at Elijah.Elijah, who was carried away by the atmosphere and the influence of alcohol, hit Julian's face quite hard.

However, Julian's hand stopped when he wanted to knock on the door. Julian undid his intention because he didn't want to disturb Serena and went straight home.“Mr. Julian is going home?” asked the aunt, who was sweeping the front yard of the inn."Yes, Auntie, thank you for the reception. I'll drop by again sometime,” Julian replied politely with a big smile.“Well, Auntie will be happy if Mr. Julian can visit again.” Auntie also replied with a smile. “Be careful on the road,” she continued.Julian nodded his head and got into the car.
