As Rachel Bailey’s good friend, she naturally did not want to see her friend hurt. "Hansen Ruiz comes from a powerful background, which is evident from the way he handled my affairs. He’s highly capable, and even though he always appears gentle and calm, his schemes are so deep they make one’s scalp tingle. At most, Rachel Bailey is just a novelty to him, something fresh and entertaining. If... Julia, while the two of them haven’t started anything yet, perhaps you could gently warn Rachel Bailey," Glades Horne said, his tone deepening. Hansen Ruiz was a smiling tiger. Only Glades Horne truly knew Hansen Ruiz inside and out, and only he dared to employ Hansen Ruiz as his Assistant. However, it was precisely his audacity that inspired such unquestionable loyalty in Hansen Ruiz, who was willing to yield and subordinate himself to Glades Horne’s lead. "Rachel has a very strong sense of self-esteem," Julia Bluen bit her lower lip, clearly troubled. (Julia was not aware of Hansen Ruiz and Rachel Bailey’s first meeting.) They haven’t even started anything yet, and besides, they’ve only met once. Surely, feelings couldn’t develop so quickly, right? If I were to warn Rachel now, she would definitely feel her self-esteem had been damaged. "Then don’t think about it. Even if something were to happen, your warning would be useless. Perhaps our judgment is impaired, and we are mistaken. Isn’t that Hansen Ruiz fellow always gentle with every woman?" Glades Horne did not want to dwell on other people’s affairs any longer. "We should, um, go for a walk outside." "It’s noon, perfect for a break." Glades Horne lowered his head, his handsome face drawing close to Julia Bluen’s, pressing against her cheek. "Julia, it’s been half a month since we registered our marriage. We agreed to forget the past, accept reality, and look forward to our future. But in this half month, I’ve only seen myself making an effort while you’ve been accepting. I’ve hardly ever seen you take the initiative. In your heart..." His expression changed, turning to one of sadness, making Julia Bluen feel as if she had committed some terrible mistake. "Are you still resisting the change in our relationship?" "No," Julia Bluen answered firmly. "Then let’s not go shopping this afternoon. Rest well." Glades Horne continued, "After the honeymoon is over, Grandma will definitely be eyeing your belly." Upon hearing this, Julia Bluen looked up at him. Glades Horne also looked at her, speaking softly and with immense affection, "I know what’s on your mind. I’ve said we should let nature take its course." He then tenderly ruffled Julia Bluen’s short hair. In the afternoon, Julia Bluen still had Glades Horne take her out of the hotel to admire the scenery of Paris. Because after the honeymoon, once back in T City, they would both be busy with their own affairs. She would have to take over the subsidiaries and chain stores; everything would be starting anew. Glades Horne had said he wouldn’t interfere with management anymore, and he would stick to his word. For her, this was a challenge—a test of her true ability and whether she could truly be self-reliant. She was looking forward to it.
