Refusing To Divorce (Julia and Harry)

Chapter 117

Watching Arya's performative display of affection, Julia didn't want to look any longer. She exchanged a glance with Valerie, understanding everything without saying a word. Where was Arya when the maid was in trouble? And now Arya came to the hospital, crying and causing a scene, claiming she wanted justice How annoying

Valerie wasn't fond of Arya's behavior. She mocked, "If you care so much about her, why didn't you know about her troubles for so long? Besides, the injuries on her body didn't just happen overnight."

"How would I know? If I had known earlier, I would have made those who hurt her pay," Arya replied, still tightly holding the maid's hand. Tears streamed down her face. Her concern seemed genuine, yet it made the maid tremble with fear, unable to speak.

"Is that so? Then why is she silent as soon as you arrive? I bet you're secretly abusing her, so when she sees you or hears your name, she gets scared," Valerie accused sharply.

"Don't slander me without evidence. She has been taking care of me every day. Why would 1 harm someone so good to me? Just because you have a vicious heart doesn't mean I do" Arya stood up and retorted to Valerie

"You can't just accuse me because you have a good relationship with Julia. If you think it's me, please provide evidence. Arya couldn't hold back her tears, feeling deeply humiliated.

She approached Harry. She reached out to grab his sleeve, softly sobbing. "Harry, you've known me for so many years. Do you

aly believe their words? Do you think I'm such a wicked person?"

Valerie quickly interjected, "Known for so many years? People can wear masks for a lifetime, and we may never truly know who a person truly is. Nowadays, people are good at disguising themselves"

Arya was furious but didn't want to cause a scene in front of Hamy. She attempted to grab Harry's sleeve, but he refused, making Arya instinctively turn her gaze toward Julia standing beade him

Julia's presence must have influenced Harry's behavior. She must have said something to him, causing him to be indifferent to her. Arya could only hope to appeal to Harry's sympathy through a show of vulnerability

Julia paid no heed to Arya's performance. She was more concerned about who caused the maid's injuries. She turned her gaze towards the maid and softly asked. "Are you unwilling to tell up While Harry is here, he can still help you seek justice But it we leave, we won't be able to help you. What torment will you face then?"

Arya immediately looked at Julia, Julia, what do you mean by

"Literally. If you can understand, I don't need to explain it to you, Julia replied sharply. She had never been kind to Arya Even if she had been initially, it was only when Arya had just returned, unaware of the extent of Arya's hostility towards her.

After Arya repeatedly harmed her, Julia couldn't maintain any kindness towards her. Whenever she thought about Harry protecting Arya, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Harry

Harry was confused at first, but then he looked at the maid. "You just need to tell the truth, and I will ensure justice is served

Hearing this, the maid dared not speak further. She kept insisting that it was an accident and had nothing to do with anyone else. No matter how Julia questioned her, she refused to say more Juba sighed helplessly. It was evident how twisted Arya was to make someone so fearful

Reflecting on Arya's behavior, Julia concluded that Arya was indeed a psychopath, a ruthless person. She was definitely not as weak and kind as she appeared on the surface. Only fools like Harry would believe in Arya's apparent kindness

Unable to extract more information, Julia said she would call the police, but the maid stopped her Julia didn't want to say more. Some mutters were not worth pursuing if the parties involved weren't cooperating As a bystander, she had no right to 12:46 Sat, Nov 16

interfere in others' decisions,

All she could say was that pitiful people often had detestable aspects. If they weren't willing to seek justice for themselves, why should she help them?

Julia glanced at Harry, who hadn't spoken much since their arrival. "Since you're here, there's no need for us to linger. Let's leave," she said.

Julia grabbed Valerie's hand and exited the ward. As Harry followed Julia, he was stopped by Arya, who grabbed his arm with a pleading look in her eyes. "Harry, what did I do wrong? Why have you been avoiding me lately?" "You didn't do anything wrong." he replied calmly.

"Then why have you been avoiding me? I've been looking for you, thinking about you every day. I call answer. I call Alden, and he always says you're busy. You used to contact me after you finished your work. Why are you so indifferent to me now?" Arya asked, tears welling up in her eyes.

but you.

you don't

"Arya," Harry said, looking at her. "Perhaps what you're saying is correct."

Arya froze at Harry's words, realizing what he meant. He did say he wanted to pursue Julia. "Are you telling me you've realized you have feelings for Julia?" she asked.

Harry's silence seemed to confirm Arya's suspicions

She couldn't believe it. Gripping Harry's sleeve tighter, she asked, "When did you realize? Do you remember what you said to me when I first came back? You said you would never like Julia, that you would always love me."

Before Harry could respond, Arya smiled bitterly. "Is it because of your mother? Or because I'm no longer of use to you? I know your mother has always suspected that our family was involved in your father's death, and you approached me to investigate the truth." Harry remained expressionless. He hadn't expected Arya to say these things, but now that she knew, he saw no reason hide it. "Since you already know, I don't see the point hiding it. Yes, I approached you to investigate the truth."

"So now that you have your answer, you don't want to see me anymore?" Arya asked tearfully, breaking into laughter. "Harry, did you ever like me?"

Arya's voice trembled slightly, and she was afraid of what Harry would say to hurt her.

However, Harry had always been a heartless person. He let go of Arya's hand and said, "No."

This time, Arya's tears were genuine. She stared at Harry in disbelief as he spoke words she didn't want to hear. "I will do what I promised to your brother. I will give you whatever you want."

Arya pleaded, "I want you. I only want you. I never cared about anything else."

zept me" Harry rejected Arya coldly, giving her no hope at
