Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 437

Chapter 437 I Deserve Better!

Julia lay in the hospital for three days and did a full body check-up. She was a doctor who specialized in this area, so

the doctor didn’t need to explain much of the procedure to her. Instead, the doctor simply sent her home after

giving a few basic instructions. Julia got Nicole to keep this a secret for her, and Nicole agreed to it. She respected

Julia’s decision.

After Julia learned she was pregnant, she wasn’t too critical of herself. Even though she was still dejected after

being abandoned by Richard, she made sure to eat a lot of good food and take care of herself for the sake of her

baby. Julia rested at home for nearly a week before Richard finally called her. He asked her to meet at a restaurant

near her place.

Julia agreed and headed to the restaurant. She sat on the stool and stared at the man she hadn’t seen for a long

time. While we were together, we basically spent all our time together. We moved in to stay together while we were

overseas.

I can’t believe it… Julia thought about how Richard had treated the woman when she saw them at the theme park

that day, and she turned her gaze away after that. With her gaze lowered, she pressed her lips together before

speaking in an icy tone. “What do you want to say?”

A complicated gaze flashed across Richard’s eyes when he noticed Julia’s attitude toward him. He hesitated and

thought about something for a moment before handing the menu to her. “Do you want to order some fish? I

remember you saying that you liked it.”

Julia’s gaze fell on the menu. She couldn’t bear eating things with a fishy smell after her pregnancy—she felt like

she would vomit if she ate any of it. “It’s fine. You can tell me what you want to say.

I’m not here to reminisce old days with you,” she replied with a frown. Richard took the menu over and ordered

some fish and a few other dishes she liked.

Julia’s nose wrinkled a little when she realized what he was doing. Even now, Richard’s still as warm and gentle as

ever. But his warmth is only making me feel worse.

“Julia, I hope we don’t meet again in the future. This will be our farewell meal,” Richard said as he looked into Julia’s

eyes. Julia had prepared herself for such a conversation, but her expression was still stiff when she heard his words.

She held her clenched fists by her sides and tried her best to look normal despite the hurt she felt. Finally, after she

had managed to calm herself, she looked up at the man in front of her.

“Richard… Can I know why?” she asked.

There was a hint of agony in Richard’s eyes as he pressed his lips together. However, he managed to conceal the

pain he felt when he looked at her. “I’m Christi’s fiancé now. I realized that I like her and not you.”

Julia fixed her glare on the man’s face. She would’ve never expected to hear him say such cruel words in her

lifetime. “If you don’t like me, why did you accept my confession? It’s not as if no other men would date me,

Richard.
