Chapter 1003 Zed Refused Julie Simply

Julie was much happier now that she'd gotten what she wanted. However, she didn't show this in the slightest.

On the outside, she looked weak as if a gust of wind would blow her away.

Hess despised her a little, but he kept in mind that it was Julie who helped him get his job so he wouldn't dare offend her.

Holding Julie with one of his hands, Hess pretended to care about her by asking, "Miss Julie, are you all right?"

They really were brother and sister because both of them could win awards with how good they were at acting.

"It's ok. I just feel a little dizzy, probably from all this moving,"

Julie answered in a soft voice, winking at him. Hess realized what she meant and nodded at her.

When they entered Zed's office, Julie sat on the couch right away.

Zed had already experienced Julie's tricks before so he knew what to do. He said, "Julie, tell me how can I compensate you?"

Julie felt upset hearing this. Zed was being so formal about everything which only left her feeling distressed.

"Zed, no matter what happened before, I still think we're friends since we've worked together before. Can you not be so formal and cold to me?"

Tears began to run down her face. Julie wiped her tears as she watched Zed out of the corner of her eye, wondering what he would do and say.

Zed frowned because he never liked seeing women cry. When he thought about what he said, he realized how harsh he might have sounded.

"I'm sorry, Julie," Zed apologized.

He passed her the tissue, but Julie took the opportunity to grab his hand and pulled him aside.

Burying her head in his arms, she cried more.

Zed furrowed his eyebrows together, irked. Even though he pitied her, he didn't care for her that much. Just as he was about to push her away, she suddenly said, "Please, Zed, don't push me away. Will you help me? Just for a while?"

If anything, this only irked Zed more. He didn't like how touched she was being so

volving me in developing the new hotel. You know I'll be an asset to you. I can make that hotel beautiful,"

Julie said confidently. She could tell that Zed didn't want to agree with her proposal so she tried to convince him. If Zed agreed, she wouldn't have a problem.

"No, no, I can't do that. The new hotel is my gift to Jean, so she's in charge of development, not me."

Zed shook his head. Julie, however, wasn't disheartened. She answered, "What if I talk to Jean about it?"

"Pardon? You want to talk with Jean? No way!" Zed vehemently refused.

He'd been getting along better with Jean recently and he didn't want anything to get in the way of that. There was no way he was letting Julie anywhere near Jean. He didn't want anything to ruin his relationship with Jean.

"Zed, you have to understand what I'm escaping. I have a lot of baggage. I can't live my life anymore because my mother is driving me crazy. If I don't do something, my mother's going to sell me for money!"

Julie wasn't lying. She'd just gotten off the phone with her mother and she knew what her mother was capable of.

Especially now that Julie wasn't sending her any money, she was furious. She wouldn't hesitate about posting Julie's information on the internet to sell her off to any man who was interested.
