Love or Leave Behind Novel

Julien stopped making jokes. After a pause, he said, “I’m just worried about you.”

Even though Samuel was around, Julien could still express his concern for Shelmaine. Samuel didn’t show any expression, but he got up and said, “You two can continue to talk I’m going out for a smoke.”

Then, he lett

After the door closed, Julien continued to look at Shelmaine. Before he could speak, she interrupted him. “Mr. Gallagher, I’ve always considered you as a client, so you don’t need to be so worried about me

Julien smiled gently. “I consider you as a friend. Does it make you uncomfortable?”

Shelmaine sighed and said, “Mr. Gallagher, I have to be honest with you about my relationship with Samuel. I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. Samuel and have gotten a divorce. He’s my ex-

x–husband”

Julien wasn’t surprised. In fact, he had suspected it after hearing Samuel’s words the other day. “I know.”

“yeah, but it doesn’t matter.

1. What matters is that you’re single now, so I have the right to pursue you. I don’t want to pressure you, though. We can start from being friends.” Jullen was so honest that it reminded Shelmaine of when she first met Samuel. Since Julien and Samuel were relatives, she couldn’t regard them as independent individuals, so she refused.

She said, “I’m pregnant right now. I’m not interested in dating either. With my current situation, I don’t plan on being in a relationship again.

“Mr. Gallagher, it’s best if we aren’t even friends. I will end our partnership as well. I’m sorry. I’ll transfer you the penalty fee.”

Her words shut down any possibility of further interaction. The underlying message was clear. She didn’t want to have contact with Julien anymore. She didn’t even want to see him.

Julien said, “I might not be able to do that”

Shelmaine looked away. “I’m sorry. I’m tired right now. Please leave”

She asked Julien to leave, and he didn’t insist on staying as he didn’t like forcing people.

But having finally met someone he felt something for, he didn’t want to miss the chance. Missing it might mean never encountering it again.

So, he simply said, “Tunderstand how you feel, but I won’t give up. I’ll respect your wishes, though. Shelmine, don’t shut yourself off completely because of a failed marriage.” “Take care!

With that, Julien got up and left, leaving Shelmaine feeling unsettled and irritable.

Samuel had been standing outside the ward the whole time. He didn’t actually leave or go for a smoke. When Julien came out, Samuel said in a low voice, “You don’t stand a chance.

”

“Whether or not I have a chance isn’tup to you,” Julien retorted.

Samuel said, “I made myself clear the other day.”

“I know, but you’re divorced now. Since you’re both single, why can’t pursue her? Even if she’s pregnant with your child, I don’t mind it. I like her, so I’ll accept everything about

her.”

With a serious expression, Julien asked, “Did you divorce her because of Natasha He had a hunch.

When Natasha was mentioned, Samuel’s eyes darkened

“Although I don’t know Natasha well, I’ve heard that she has liked you for a long time. Since you’ve made your choice,

Samuel put on an inexplicable smile but didn’t say anything.

After Julien left, Samuel returned to the ward Shelmaine was on a call about work, she glanced at him but didn’t acknowledge him. When she ended the call, she sent a message to Beatrix while she said to Samuel, “You should stop staying here and head back to South Haven”

Samuel remained silent.

“Theard that Natasha is sick and in the hospital. She needs you more than I do. Samuel, since you’ve chosen Natasha, you don’t need to stick around here. I don’t need you to take carro me. By the way, I’ve transterred you the money for the meals these days.” For a while, Samuel didn’t respond. Then, he suddenly said, “You don’t like Juben.‘
