Chapter 2461

When Julie saw Fabian here, she almost could not believe her eyes. The tall good-looking figure and the handsome gentle face in her sight were all real.

Fabian also spotted Julie. He greeted her very politely and courteously, “Miss Charles, how are you feeling? I didn't know you were in the hospital. That’s why I only came to see you now. My apologies.”

Julie was stunned, not knowing what to say for a while.

On the other hand, Julie's mother quickly replied, “You’re too kind. It's already nice enough for you to come to visit Julie. What are you sorry for? Please sit down.”

Julie's mother was very polite. Then, she bowed her head and asked Lillian kindly. “Little girl, you look so beautiful. What's your name?”

Lillian blinked her big clear eyes and glanced at Fabian.

“Her name is Lillian.”

“Lillian? That's a really special and nice name. Come sit down, good girl.”

“Mr. Johnson, Lily, you should sit down first.” Julie finally came back to her senses and greeted.

Lillian turned and walked toward Julie, passing the bouquet in her hand to Julie.

Seeing the bouquet that Lillian just handed to her, Julie's annoyed mood seemed to be relieved at once.

“Thank you, Lily.” She thanked Lillian and took the bouquet.

Julie's mother finally felt relieved when she saw a smile on Julie's face.

She had not seen her daughter smile since she got hospitalized.

“Julie, you should talk first. I’ll go outside to buy something.”

Julie also wanted to speak to Fabian alone, so she nodded. “Okay.”

Fabian, Lillian, and Julie were soon left in the ward.

Julie was also very puzzled by Fabian’s sudden visit. At the same time, she also held a trace of expectation in her heart.

“Why did you suddenly come to the hospital to visit me, Mr. Johnson?”

“Originally, I wanted to prevent people from misunderstanding our relationship, so I didn't want to take this trip. But I heard that you were injured and got hospitalized because of me, so I thought I needed to come and visit you.” Fabian's explanation was very straightforward. There were almost no subtleties at all.

The only hope that remained in Julie's heart was also disillusioned in an instant.

Sure enough, she was overthinking again.

1 “Don't take it to heart, Mr. Johnson. I was injured because I didn't pay attention to where I was going and fell accidentally. It has nothing to do with you, Mr. Johnson.”

“I have to apologize no matter what,” Fabian apologized sincerely. “Where did you hurt yourself, Miss Charles? Is it serious?”

Julie retracted her hands when she heard the words. The wounds that were already healing somehow became more painful.

“It's okay, they’re just flesh wounds. My mother came to take me home from the hospital today,” Julie said while looking at Lillian, who was sitting quietly beside Fabian. “What about Lily? Is she okay?”

“Lily is fine, since I’m taking care of her, I won't let anything happen to her again,” Fabian promised. His gentle gaze fell on Lillian's little face, and there seemed to be a very subtle and special light in his eyes. Julie's heart trembled inexplicably.

“You care so much about Lily, Mr. Johnson.” Julie sighed softly.

“Lily is my only 'family’ in this world,” Fabian said softly.

Julie was a little taken aback. ‘Family?’

“By the way, there's one thing I hope you can do for me.” Fabian asked for a favor.

Julie was very curious and thought it was related to Lillian. “What is it? Mr. Johnson, please tell me.”

“I hope that when you go back to work, you’ll explain to your colleagues that you and I are not dating.”
