Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 193

Yeah, what Peanut did was totally out of the blue, he just bumped into Julie Abraham’s chest out of nowhere.

Kieran Hernandez said to Julie, all serious like, “Maybe your chest is flat because…”

“Stop!” Julie looked up at Kieran. “Mr. Hernandez, you still have a chance to find a woman with bigger boobs and a better feel. Trust me, there are enough women willing to marry you that they could line up all the way to France.”

Kieran replied, “I prefer how it is now. Having a petite wife is not a bad thing.” He seemed a bit reluctant.

He was totally different from the man who risked his life strapping a bomb to himself for her.

Julie kept her smile, “That’s your problem. You should have chosen not to get married again after your divorce, but you chose this difficult path.”

Kieran replied, “Maybe because people do stupid things when they’re confused.” He carefully treated Julie’s arm that was hurt by the rope.

Julie pulled her hand back, “So getting back with me is a stupid thing?”

Kieran responded, “I am willing to do stupid things.” He pulled her arm back again, continuing to apply the medicine.

Julie was silent for a while, but couldn’t help but ask Kieran, “Did you mean what you just said?”

Kieran obviously didn’t understand Julie’s question, “What?”

Julie looked down at her chest and laughed awkwardly, “Actually, my mum’s breast is quite full. You said my breast is poor, could it be because of Peyton Tyler?”

Kieran looked at her and paused his actions, “What does he have to do with it? Your chest is flat, that’s my fault.”

Julie was speechless, “So why am I worrying about this?”

She said to Kieran, “I guess it’s your fault. Maybe you scared me so much that my estrogen secretion was poor, resulting in my small chest.”

The story of Kieran scaring her actually goes like this.

Remember the day Kieran organized a party, the whole team was invited to lunch. After getting the team’s consent, Julie chose her favorite takeaway. The delivery guy just brought the food. Julie was talking to him when Peyton threw a basketball at her.

She couldn’t dodge in time and was knocked down by the basketball. The most embarrassing part was that the basketball hit her right in the chest. Julie almost fainted on the spot after getting hit.

Peyton was frightened, he ran to Julie and asked with concern, “Joyce Abraham, are you okay? I really didn’t mean it.”

“If you shake me again, I really can’t take it.” Julie looked at Peyton weakly. He was a vibrant young man, still sweating from the basketball game. His rushed appearance made his cheeks flush, looking very cute.

Maybe because he was scared, he didn’t think much and directly reached out to touch Julie’s chest.

Julie was in so much pain she forgot to roll over. Just in the nick of time, Kieran, who was standing the furthest away, silently walked over to Peyton and Julie and grabbed Peyton’s wrist.

Peyton finally realized that Julie was a girl and his face turned even redder.

“I’m sorry, I…”

“I’ll take her to the infirmary, you guys continue.” After saying that to Peyton, Kieran turned to Julie, “Can you walk?”

Julie was lying on the ground, feeling like her life was over. She opened her mouth but couldn’t speak.

In the end, Kieran put down the basketball, bent down to pick her up and headed straight for the infirmary.

“Easy!”

Kieran’s movement in picking up Julie was not gentle, causing her to feel like her chest was vibrating, and the pain was unbearable. After she spoke up, he seemed to become much gentler. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Being held in Kieran’s arms like a princess was something Julie had always dreamed of. But she wasn’t happy at all, as she was worried about whether her developing chest had been flattened by the basketball. The infirmary wasn’t far from the gym, but it was lunchtime and there was no one there. Not even the school doctor.

He put Julie on bed. This girl had always looked malnourished since she was little. Lying on the hospital bed made her look even more pitiful.

“Bro Kieran, do you think I might have internal injuries?” She was in so much pain that she wanted to check the injured area but was afraid that it would hurt more if she touched it. So, she sounded quite upset.

“Weren’t you practicing boxing since you were little? How could you get injured so easily?” He took out his phone and dialed the school doctor.

Lying in bed, Julie came to her senses and started to chatter again, speaking to Kieran with a pained expression, “I practiced offensive moves but I didn’t practice how to defend. Plus, I was hit in the heart.”

“Your heart has your chest to cushion it, right?” Kieran responded casually while listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone.

This topic should have ended there, but he unintentionally added, “Your chest isn’t thick enough, so it’s understandable if you have internal injuries.”

Julie immediately blushed and was about to get angry at Kieran. But then the school doctor answered the phone, and Kieran turned to explain the situation to the doctor, saying that his basketball teammate had been hit in the chest by a basketball.

The doctor’s voice came from the other end of the phone, “My son had an accident so I’m at the hospital now. Is your friend seriously injured?”

Kieran looked back at Julie who was lying in front of him, frowned, and said, “I’m not sure.”

“Then you check the injured area first and tell me how it is now.” The doctor said.

Kieran looked at Julie, hesitated, and asked, “Check?”

“See if there’s any bleeding from the injury!”

Kieran had the speaker on, so Julie also heard the doctor’s voice. She immediately shook her head at Kieran, firmly saying. “There’s no bleeding.” “She said there’s no bleeding.” Kieran told the doctor.

“Check around the skin for any swelling or bruises, see how bad it is,” the school doctor said again.

The injury is on the chest!

Almost reflexively, Julie said to Kieran, “I’m fine!”

Originally, Kieran had no intention of helping her check, but seeing Julie dodge him like the plague, Kieran squinted thoughtfully and asked her back, “Didn’t you get any internal injury?”

“You might not believe it, but I suddenly remembered that I might have practiced some self-defense martial arts when I was a kid.”

Although Julie didn’t believe it herself, she still confidently said this.

“Any swelling or bruise?” The school doctor’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

Kieran answered the school doctor, “Let me take a look first.”

Then he hung up the phone.

Julie watched Kieran walk to her bed. He was in a white uniform, with neatly cut short hair, and his exquisite features seemed carved out.

He just sat there by Julie’s bed, his deep and cold eyes staring at her, smiling and asking. “Scared?”

Kieran was used to seeing Julie unreservedly in front of him, but he had never seen her blush like a shy girl. It was quite a novelty for Kieran then.”

With Kieran looking at her like that, Julie’s face got redder and redder. This obvious provocation was intolerable to Julie.

Although her chest was still in pain, her expression was very firm. She said to Kieran, “Who’s scared? I just think men and women should be treated differently. After all, I’m a girl. I’m not offering my body for

art, and the injury is there. You have to take responsibility if you take a look, still want to?”

Her words grew more defiant towards the end. She was sure he wouldn’t want to look, because the person who least wanted to take responsibility for her in the world was undoubtedly Kieran.

He sat by the bed, corners of his mouth slightly raised, and asked Julie. “Are you provoking me or using reverse psychology?”

“Anyway, if you look, you have to marry me!” she brazenly stated. Seeing Kieran retreat a few steps from her words, Julie’s triumph grew.

Her chest hadn’t suffered a heavy blow that much, it was just that she hadn’t reacted at the time. Now, with her senses back, Julie seized Kieran’s weakness and triumphantly lifted her shirt corner. Although she didn’t reveal anything, she still mockingly asked him, “Want to look? Opportunity knocks but once! Anyway, I’m willing to marry you.”

She approached him triumphantly, simply because she rarely had the upper hand in front of him and wanted to show off a little. She didn’t expect him to grab her hands impatiently.

At that time, her hands were tightly clutching the shirt corner. The man’s initiative made her heart skip a beat. She clenched her fists harder, clutching the shirt corner even tighter.

At that time, Kieran was annoyed by Julie’s sudden approach. He felt her natural shampoo scent in his nostrils. So, he just wanted to grab her arms and push her back onto the sickbed.

But, he didn’t expect her to hold onto the shirt corner so tightly. So when he lifted her hands over her head a bit angrily and pushed her down onto the sickbed, her chest was exposed in front of him.
