Marley, still on her knees, felt her face fall again when she heard that. It was like Murren’s words were aimed straight at her!

Ever since she got involved with Julius, everyone in the Bridger family had started treating her with more respect. It had been ages since anyone dared humiliate her like this.

Quinn could tell that Murren truly cared about her.

“Sure. I’ll definitely come by and chat with you,” she promised.

As she walked out of the ancestral hall, she saw a lone figure standing still in the quiet clearing outside.

It was Julius.

Quinn stopped for a moment, stunned to see him still there. He had really been waiting for her.

“Quinn!” His voice suddenly called out behind her.

She paused, turning to look at him.

“You know, as long as you don’t walk away from me, I’ll always wait for you like this,” he said out of nowhere.

She blinked in surprise. What was that supposed to mean? Always wait for me?

However, Julius didn’t say anything further. He simply took Quinn by the hand and led her to the side of the road.
