Although dating isn’t the same as marrying, people will still talk about it.” Julien responded calmly. “They will gossip, but I’ll try not to let them do it in front of you. I don’t care about such matters. But if you do, I can make them shut up.” Shotmaine smiled gently. Despite her weight loss, her complexion had improved significantly. Her makeup was so light that it appeared as if she wasn’t wearing any Her lips were fall and soft, forming a lovely pointed curve as she smiled.

“Why didn’t you take them with you!

“Icouldn’t” she responded nonchalantly.

Julien removed his jacket and draped it over her. As she looked up at him, he said, “I’m feeling too warm. Since you’re feeling cold, you should wear it.” She didn’t remember saying she was cold.

But since it could prevent wardrobe malfunctions, she wore it.
