Julian leaned against the door while observing 'Maria' from the corner of his narrowed eye. He focused on her like a hawk while hunting.
He held a conviction that he couldn't trust her.
"Julian, are you sure?"
"Yeah, spending time with friends is important."
Sena's eyes shimmered with curiosity as she gazed at Julian with a soft smile. Her nose twitched when her eyes flicked towards Maria, who shrugged.
"But I wanted to go shopping with you…"
'Sena… How are you so adorable and fearsome at the same time?'
Julian's lips curled into a smile, and his focus on Maria faded. However, his doubts about her didn't fade; they could never fade.
Because the Maria Sinclair he knew was a young woman with curly brown hair and freckles… this woman was too beautiful and seductive.
"Julian, maybe we can go shopping first and then play?"
Maria's husky, nasal voice caught him off guard while Sena's face glowed like a Christmas tree on December 24th.
This woman reminded him of someone.
