Refusing To Divorce (Julia and Harry)

When Julia arrived back at the villa, she noticed a car parked out front, brimming with luggage,

Raising an eyebrow, she realized that the woman had indeed returned, perhaps even making this her permanent home.

Blare Villa had been Julia and Harry's home since they got married. They had skipped the wedding ceremony, opting for a simple moning at the registry office followed by Julia moving into the villa, her luggage in tow, under the watchful eyes of the press. Over the years, H As Julia entered, she immediately recognized a familiar figure in the living room-Arya, Harry's first love, the one he always held dear.

Arya had been battling a congenital heart condition that preverited her from having children, which had taken her abroad for treatment. Her return suggested a significant improvement in her health.

Arya remained seated on the sofa, greeting Julia sweetly, "Hello, Mrs. Wright. Then, turning to the housekeeper, she instructed, "Mrs. Wright must be thirsty after her outing. Could you make her a cup of coffee? I remember she prefers her coffee iced and freshly ground. H Julia stood at the doorway, watching quietly.

Realizing her overstep. Arya adopted a tentative tone. "Mrs. Wright, I've just returned from my treatment abroad and I'm not in the best of health. Harry was concerned 1 couldn't manage on my own, so he asked if I could stay here with you. don't mind, do you?" You

Julia's smile was slight as she managed, "Not at all." She knew that when Arya put on this innocent act, Harry couldn't be far behind. While she wasn't fond of Arya, Julia saw no benefit in causing a scene.

Scanning the room. Julia didn't see Harry. But as she looked toward the stairs, she saw him descending slowly, his presence

as silent as ever.

Harry was undeniably handsome, the epitome of charm in Orepoli City with his impressive height, striking features, and the demeanor

of a distinguished gentleman. His good looks alone were enough to captivate countless women, independent of his wealth or the Wright family name.

Harry said in a deep voice, "Arya will be staying with us for a while.

Julia arched an eyebrow nonchalantly. "Should I find another place to stay, then?"

"There's no need for that," Harry responded coolly. Tm swamped with work. Just help me look after her for a few days"

Internally, Julia scoffed at the thought of caring for his former girlfriend. Despite her irritation, however, she couldn't deny Harry's request and simply nodded in agreement.

Thinking of the encounter with Rose, Julia flashed a smirk. "Harry, can we have a word in private?" She was used to the other women in Harry's life, but

she suspected that Arya, being Harry's cherished ex, might not handle the situation well. Any trouble with Arya could lead Harry straight to Julia's doorstep, demanding answers.

Arya looked nervously toward Harry, then asked hesitantly, "Mrs Wright, what are you discussing with Harry?"

Is she trying to play the role of Harry's devoted wife? Seriously? Julia suppressed a sneer and tilted her head thoughtfully. "At the Venus Party today. I ran into someone interesting." Harry's face darkened. He glanced at Arya and suggested, "Let's talk in the study."

Arya's face fell-She stood there, clutching her dress, looking as fragile as a wind-tossed flower.
