Chapter 117 Not Sure What Love Is
Julius stood rigid, staring blankly at the man who was supposed to be his “father“.
The other man was dressed in a well–tailored black suit, a white shirt underneath. The familiar features of his face served as a constant reminder to Julius that the man standing before him shared his blood!
Ever since his mother passed away, his father had consistently worn only black and white clothing. It was as if he had forgotten all other colors existed.
“What’s the matter? You seem shocked to see me.” Joaquin Whitethorn slowly approached his son, a gentle smile on his lips.
This smile, seemingly graceful and gentle, felt chilling to Julius, sending a shiver down his spine.
Even though Joaquin appeared to be a regular man on the surface, Julius knew the truth. After his mother’s passing, his father had, in reality, lost his mind.
“What are you here for?” Julius asked coldly.
“My son has found a woman he loves, so naturally, I came to check on him,” said Joaquin with an easy smile.
Julius‘ lips were tightly pressed together. Although he had already instructed his subordinates to remove the trending topic that morning, there was inevitably a time lag.
Clearly, Joaquin had also seen that trending topic.
As for the woman he loved…
He wasn’t exactly sure what “love” actually felt like, but one thing he was certain of was his desire to have Quinn stay by his side.
Looking at his silent son, Joaquin suddenly asked, “What, do you think you’re not in love with her?”
Julius glared at his father with a cold stare. “Whether I’m in love with her or not, that’s none of your business. But if you dare lay a finger on her, I won’t let you off the hook!”
“Haha!” Joaquin suddenly burst into laughter. “Of course, I wouldn’t lay a hand on her. After all, I’m curious to see what would ultimately happen to the son she and I had!”
The “she” he referred to was naturally Julius‘ mother.
Joaquin raised his hand to gently pat Julius‘ shoulder, adding, “You can rest assured, even if you’re not in love now, as long as you have thoughts of wanting that woman, you’ll eventually fall in love with her! And once you fall in love, you’ll understand how I felt. You’ll want that woman by your side, and if she can’t only have eyes for you, you’ll wish to get rid of everyone around her. You might even want to confine her so she can only ever see you!”
