New Life

The Birthday Day

Susi stunned. He could only see how Maxilian's back moved away and left. He unconsciously clenched both his hands. "I wonder how far you're trying to get rid of me."

Gone off? Nah! I'm not going to go that easy. No one can make him leave even Maxilian himself. Finally, he closed the door and sat down on the sofa. Her smile widened with a neatly arranged sweet plan.

Without Lusi realizing it, his absence in the shooting session this time had destroyed himself. He had no idea that SM agency had obtained a replacement model. He still thought that everyone would definitely be waiting for him. The things he could not control would be a surprise the next day.

Julia wiped her tears as the phone in her pocket shook. He saw Maxilian's name on it. He was worried, but his hand clicked the answer button.

"Julia."

Maxilian's tone of voice instantly sounded right after Julia picked up her phone.

"Hmm" he replied slowly. He tried to strengthen his voice to sound ordinary.

"Where are you now? I'll be home in a minute."

Julia clenched her hand on her phone. He wanted to laugh when he heard Maxilian say 'going home' it sounded like a joke.

So this is what you want to say? Maxilian, you've made your choice! Julia's inner heart is cooling.

"Hmm, alright, I'll wait for you upstairs."

"You okay?"

"of course. I'm very kind. See you at home." Reply Julia fed up. He didn't want to say many words for now.

That guy's. Obviously he saw everything. But he said he would go home. Julia laughed as memories of the past unfolded. They deserve to be brothers. It turns out that the two of them make no difference. Both of them betrayed him behind.

"Do you think I'm stupid? maxilian, you decide the path, and I will walk the path you choose. You wanna play? So let's see, how far do you play? Instead, let's make this game even more interesting."

Julia put down her phone. He looked at his reflection in the mirror, wiped away the remaining tears still stuck in his lashes, and combed his hair. Every move Julia made seemed slow, but the emotions in her heart seemed to be burning. The pain, the wound of a betrayal crushes his world.

"right, we're just a contract. So you're innocent. I only know your choice sooner. Didn't we?" julia lirih.

"What I feel is not jealousy. Yes that's true, I'm not jealous. It must be because it all reminds me of my old life. The feeling of seeing Aaron with Lusi. I'm just so sorry for the bad memories."

Silent, Julia felt even deeper into her heart. Then again Maxilian's shadow with other women. He held onto his chest involuntarily with his head shaking slowly. The pain is real, but he won't believe it either.

"No, I can't be like this. From the beginning love is poison. And this time I won't let my guard down. Julia, realize, he's not a man you can trust."

Right after Julia said that, there was a knock on the door. Julia smiled as she put down the comb in her hand and put on a bit of solid powder under her eyes.

"really. You are Julia! People who don't have to have love."

Julia took her foot to open the door and smiled as she saw Maxilian's face behind the door. His eyes seemed calm as if the events from a moment ago had never existed.

"Why so long?" asked Julia spoiled and impressed ordinary. But his eyes fell right on Maxilian's wounded lips, to the point of making his heart ache.

"I'm busy with some business."

Julia's heart cooled when she heard Maxilian's reply. He let Maxilian in, but his hand moved first. He hugged Maxilian's waist gently from behind.

"Thank you."

Maxilian. He saw Julia's hand curled up in her stomach.

"You've done a lot for me. Why didn't you tell me you were punishing them? You've even freed Ben and helped my uncle."

Maxilian smiled, she turned around and looked at Julia's face. "Suppose it's a gift because you hurt a lot because of me."

The corner of Julia's heart pouted. 'A gift? Is including the presence of other women also a gift?' julia said in her heart.

"So that's compensation for me?" ask Julia coldly. He let go of his embrace quickly. Walking to the side of the bed with a look of disdain flashed quickly.

"You're not happy?" ask Maxilian quickly.

Julia shakes. "I thought you'd release Uncle Aston."

"If that's what you want, you get it."

Julia smiled broadly. He could imagine how happiness Aston uncle heard this. Slowly he moved away as Maxilian was about to embrace him. He dodged quite quickly with the disgust that flashed.

"I'll prepare your bath water."

Maxilian only saw Julia's back drifting away. He can't do anything right now. "How do I explain it?" mumbling slowly.

Lusi, Julia should know about him. About his childhood friend who came from China. In the end he just kept quiet and waited for the right time to talk about everything.

**

She's upstairs, Julia just sat down to dry her hair. His hand fell silent as Maxilian suddenly placed a fairly large box before him. The man's smile accompanied sweetly and grabbed Julia's soft body.

"Happy birthday."

Julia stunned. He was silent and frozen as the speech sounded melodious in his ears. Is it his birthday today? She now lives as Julia. And today seems right is Julia's birthday.

"You surprised? Did you forget your birthday?"

Julia realized. He looked at Maxilian through the glass in front of him. The man hugged her from behind and grabbed her body. Maxilian's head bowed and kissed his neck. It sucks up its white skin and leaves a very clear red trail.

"Li-an.."

"You'll have to make a wish before you open the card." Maxilian got up, she leaned against the dresser. One hand supports the body while the other hand is in the pocket of the pants. With a blue shirt, his body looks very attractive.

"Make requests?" Julia squinted her eyes. "But there's no candle I'm picking up."

"We're not kids anymore. Why you need a candle and a piece of cake."

Julia rolled her eyes lazily. Isn't it customary to ask for a birthday wish? But this man thinks that this is a childish act.

Maxilian suddenly lowered his body to be right in front of Julia's face. The masculine aroma smelled to make Julia face away because of reflexes.

"If so, consider my eyes a candle. You can make your wish, then blow it."

Julia looked in disbelief, but in the end when she saw Maxilian's gaze, she did not refuse. He closed his eyes with clenched hands and made a plea.

"Lord, thank you for giving me a second chance. Please let me get my revenge so completely."

Maxilian smiled as she closed her eyes and clenched her hands together. He knew the girl was making a wish.  While waiting he saw the beautiful face of his wife. The more he looked, the more he knew that the girl in front of him was very beautiful despite being cold. Who knows what cruelty is in it? The girl with a calm naturedness yet harbored an unexpected intelligence.

It was this girl who made him get rid of all his enemies. Until making the power of the Lunox family in his grasp. No matter what else, he only knew about the sense of being used to their togetherness. The presence of a Julia will never be replaced by anyone. Or he'll search to death if Julia tries to get away from him.

"It's over?" maxilian asked softly as he looked at the black eyes slowly opening. As if amazed, he did not wait for Julia's answer and preferred to kiss Julia's lips lightly.

"May God grant all your requests."

Julia fell silent. He almost laughed at Maxilian's attitude this morning. Then his eyes turned to a gift in front of him. His hand moved, and opened the package. Once again he fell silent when he knew that it was a bag from a well-known brand with a limited edition. Looking at the beauty of the bag, her hand reflexes stretched out to touch it.

"Do you like it?" asked Maxilian flatly.

Julia shakes. "Not so, I just feel like it's really expensive and I'm.."

Julia was shocked when Maxilian's hand reached her neck with her body getting closer. He could even smell Maxilian's calming body scent. The coldness touched his skin as a small diamond necklace stuck around his neck.

"I don't have a wedding ring, because to me it doesn't make sense."

"Why is that?"

"Because small things are like tools to curb someone's life."

For Julia, it was just an excuse for Maxilian not to reveal her status. Moreover, he knew about Maxilian having a lover behind him. No matter what attitude Maxilian had this morning, in her eyes, maxilian was only acting that would hurt her later.

"Does this have anything to do with your mother's ring your cousin was referring to? The ring must have many stories and memories of its own for you."

"You've seen it. Something precious to my mother is not a ring. But something's curled around your neck. This necklace is something precious that my mother has."

Julia stunned. Her hands were without touching the necklace that was cradling around her neck. He saw a small but very sparkling white diamond.

"My mother's wedding ring has disappeared. I can't find him in a long time. Besides the ring, this necklace is the second precious thing my mother has."

"Lian, no. I'm sorry I can't take it." Julia said with her hand trying to take the necklace off and give it back to Maxilian.

Maxiliam. His eyes sharpened towards Julia as a sign of disapproval.

"I don't deserve it yet. I'm.."

"You are the most deserving!"

Julia was silent and then laughed. "Why do you think I'm the most deserving person? Lian, I won't accept this necklace, but I'll gladly take this bag."

Maxilian clasped tightly onto the necklace in his hand. His face was implied by the emotions he was trying to contain. But he just shut up and saw Julia touch his bag.

"It's..."

"Julia looked up. Waiting for Maxilian to finish her words. "Is there something you want to say?"

Maxilian nodded but shook his head. He doesn't know how to start a story about his childhood friend. He thought that when he gave the necklace, Julia was happy so that Julia could accept all the explanations. But it seems that this is not in line with his predictions. So he just stood up and left Julia who was also silent with all his thoughts.
