Chapter 186: Chapter 186

At night… Julian went swimming, and Annalise watched from the poolside. She sat by the table, eating fruits and scrolling through her phone. Se also took a look at the fashion sales figures on Twitter.

Thinking that the surroundings looked lovely, Annalise took a photo of the scenery. She took another photo of Julian swimming. She took a picture of her hand, too Then, she uploaded the pictures to Twitter. As soon as it was uploaded, the comments flooded in. “Oh!

It’s a new post. Can you post more often? Can you post three sets of photos every day?” “What are you saying? How much new content can she post every day?”

“It doesn’t matter. I love looking at couples being all lovey-dovey. I’d be happy to see photos of them eating. sleeping, or pooping!” “Pfft! I’ll die from laughter. Why would they take a photo of them pooping and show it to you? (Actually, I want to see it too. Haha!)” “Yes, yes. I want to see it, too. All of us want to see it!”

“That’s right. That’s how easy to please we are.” “Damn. Julian looks so handsome when he swims!

He’s too handsome.” “Pfft. Only his head is in the picture. How can you tell that he’s handsome?” “I’m imagining his eight-pack abs. My god, he’s so handsome.” “Haha. What should I do? I’m so obsessed with them. I’m using my imagination to fill in the blanks, too.”

“It can’t be helped. I’m just so obsessed. Why didn’t Anna appear on camera? Why did she only take a picture of her hand?” “Oh, that’s right. Anna, you’re a doctor? You even went to that conference meeting. You’re so amazing. Upload some photos!”

Annalise scrolled through the comments and decided to tell Julian about them later. After arriving at the convention hall tomorrow, she would get the photographer to follow her. Then, she would upload some photos and increase their account’s popularity. Julian came out of the water with a splash.

Annalise immediately put down her phone and picked up the thick bathrobe for Julian. Although the water was warm, the poolside was still a little cold. She was afraid that he would catch a cold.

When Julian saw Annalise approaching, he suddenly fell. He plunged headfirst into the water. Annalise thought that he still wanted to swim. She was about to put down the bathrobe when she suddenly noticed there was no movement in the water. She became anxious. She shouted anxiously, “Julian.

Julian, what’s wrong? Don’t tease me like this. Stop fooling around. “Julian!” He was sitting motionlessly in the water as if he did drown.

“Are you cramping?” As soon as Annalise thought of that, she was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat. She had a harrowing memory of cramps. Five years ago, a ten-year-old child in her village was bathing in a pond. He was an excellent swimmer, but he suddenly had a cramp and drowned. Others only noticed it a few minutes later and immediately pulled the child out. At that time, she and Joseph were catching snails in the field. Joseph threw down the snails and rushed to save the child.

But in the end, he failed. The child died of drowning, despite being a good swimmer. *Julian…”

Annalise’s voice trembled as she jumped into the water. She quickly went over to pull Julian up. “How are you?” She pulled Julian out of the water.

Suddenly. Julian came out of the water, hugged her waist, and smiled at her. When Annalise saw Julian’s lively expression, her anger Inexplicably surged. She was so angry that she punched his shoulder. “Don’t do that.”

When Julian saw that Annalise’s eyes were red, his heart jumped. He knew that she was worried. He hugged. her and apologized to her. “Annie, I’m sorry. I won’t scare you anymore.” He was only teasing her. He had not expected such a strong reaction from her. “Don’t do that again…” Annalise cried. Most of the time, she was very strong. But she was really frightened just now.

“Alright, I won’t do it again. I’m sorry. Be good. Don’t cry.” Julian immediately wiped Annalise’s tears. He kissed her cheek again and assured her, “I’ll never do it again. I promise.” “I was so scared just now,”

Annalise said. “Annie, I’m sorry.” Julian hugged Annalise and kissed her lips.

Annalise’s anger dissipated. She had been haunted by that painful memory earlier, which made her especially worried. But at that moment, she felt like she had found what she had lost and wanted to cherish Julian with all her heart. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back.

The next day… Julian and Annalise walked into the convention hall. Julian had been hard at work the previous night. That morning, he was full of energy and looked refreshed. On the other hand, Annalise looked exhausted, as if she had run around like a thief the entire night. Julian wanted to laugh when he saw Annalise’s expression. Annalise rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t laugh.” “Okay. I won’t.” Julian smiled.

“Hey, good morning.” As soon as they entered the venue, Sybil came to greet them. “Morning,” said Julian and Annalise in unison. Sybil’s face was filled with excitement as she asked Annalise, “Anna, will that woman get pimples today?”

“I think so,” said Annalise. Sybil waved her fists excitedly. “I’ll go place my bet now.” In the venue, the attendees were gathered in groups of twos and threes, discussing whether Gwen’s face would have a breakout. Henry had already set up a betting booth.

The favorite pastime of the young men of Jadeborough was gambling. Start a wager, and hundreds would come. At that moment, they were betting on whether Gwen would have pimples on her face.

They were even more excited than when they were playing poker. “I bet she won’t get pimples. How can it be that mysterious?”

“I bet that she will. Just because Annalise could take out a bottle of Energizing Pill at Samuel’s birthday banquet, I bet Annalise will win.” Henry shouted, “Come on, come on. It’s time to make your final bet.

For those betting on Annalise to win, the odds are 4 to 1.

“Damn, the odds are so low. I’ll bet on Gwen winning. I even took a close look at her yesterday. Gwen’s face doesn’t have any acne marks at all. Her skin is so smooth. How can she have a breakout?”

“Yeah, that’s right. Acne usually happens when one’s health is in bad form. People like Gwen, who never gets pimples, won’t get any today, either. I bet Gwen will win.”

“Cut the crap. Place your bets!” Henry was irritated when he heard they were betting on Gwen to win.

The more people bet on Gwen, the more money Henry would earn when Annalise won later. However, when he heard them say Gwen would not get pimples, he was still upset.

Sybil came over and placed a generous bet. “I’ll bet 20 million on Annalise winning Anyone?” Seeing that Sybil placed a 20-million-dollar bet so eagerly, someone immediately bet against her.

They had to bet that Gwen would win. That way, once Sybil lost, they could split the 20 million among themselves. “I’ll bet 20 million too.” Lianne walked over and said coldly. A young master asked, “Miss Blake, who are you betting on with this 20 million?” “Annalise,” said Lianne.

“You guys must have a lot of money to burn. I bet 7.5 million dollars on Gwen.” Another young man wagered. “I bet 75 million dollars that my wife will win.” Julian boldly placed his bet. Suddenly, there was a commotion at the door. A sharp-eyed attendee said.
