Chapter 32: A love scandal
Seeing that Julia knew his name, Kevin scanned her up and down, but he still could not recall her from his memory.
He simply replied coldly, "I don’t remember."
Facing his icy attitude, Julia consoled herself despite being angry. She then broke free from the bodyguards’ hold, placing her hands on her hips as she loudly replied.
"Even if you don’t remember me, it’s fine! I’m telling you now—my name is Julia Rossi, and I like you. I’m going to pursue you!"
Everyone present was stunned. The employee’s eyes widened into saucers, looking at Julia as if saying, "Goodness me, don’t you think you’ve already caused enough of a ruckus? You actually told President Harper straight to his face that you’re going to pursue him?"
The bodyguards exchanged looks. They had seen many women interested in their president, and they were mostly those who only dared to sneak a few glances or exchange a few words with him. Eventually, his cold demeanor would push them away.
It was their first time seeing a woman so boldly express her affection for Kevin.
What would Jessie think about this?
Kevin didn’t dwell as much; he frowned, finding Julia very noisy as he turned to look at the nearby employee.
"Today’s project is finalized. You just need to bring the contract to the Harper family for signing."
With that, he got up to leave.
The employee was slightly stunned. He thought this collaboration was going to fall through, yet Kevin agreed?
Kevin kept his work and personal life separate. He would never let his personal feelings affect his work.
Seeing that he was not paying attention to her, Julia stomped her feet in anger and ran ahead to block his path with open arms.
"Kevin, I’m talking to you. Didn’t you hear me?"
"Move aside!" Kevin was very impatient with Julia and directly instructed the bodyguards to pull her away. Then, they left immediately.
Watching his back, she wasn’t the least bit discouraged by his cold treatment. Instead, she was even more motivated as she shouted toward Kevin’s retreating figure.
"Kevin, I will never give up! Just wait, I will make you fall in love with me!"
The employees behind captured this scene and sent it to their boss, Marco Rossi, who almost spat blood out of anger when he saw it.
He immediately called Julia. As soon as she picked up, he couldn’t help but scold her.
"Julia! Have I spoiled you too much? You did such a thing in front of President Harper?"
It wasn’t like he didn’t know of Julia’s feelings for Kevin. On the contrary, he had known for a long time. When she was still in college, he had brought her to a business gala. At that time, she promptly fell for Kevin and vowed to pursue him, wanting to become a woman worthy of him.
Later, she went back to the UK for further studies, and Marco didn’t give it much thought. As long as she was studying well, it was fine. He assumed she would eventually forget about it, but she didn’t. As soon as she had returned home, she gave him such a "surprise."
"Dad! I don’t care. I just like him, and I have to pursue him!" Julia said with determination, her eyes glowing.
She knew exactly what kind of person Kevin was. She initially thought her feelings for him were only fleeting, but as time passed, Kevin’s place in her heart grew more significant. Nobody else managed to catch her eye.
Her place should be beside such an outstanding man!
Even Kevin’s cold demeanor toward her today didn’t put Julia off. Rather, it made her fall deeper for him, as it was initially his disposition that had captivated her. The fact that there were never any women around him fueled her desire to conquer him, wanting to capture this "pure and untouched flower."
Marco only felt that Julia’s thoughts were too naive. Not to mention whether she could succeed or not, Kevin was Grace City’s big shot and the Harper family’s leader. If she ticked him off, he wouldn’t care who it was and would surely handle it harshly and possibly retaliate.
His every move was likely to be reported by the entire Grace City media, and Julia’s reputation might even take a hit.
That was what he worried about most—the fear of Julia’s reputation being tarnished.
"Julia, you better behave and come home obediently, or see how I’ll deal with you!" Marco threatened, but his words did not affect Julia.
She snorted coldly and directly hung up on him.
Marco, visibly shaken with anger, decided to complain to his wife.
"Wife, just look at our wonderful daughter! She confessed to Kevin in front of everyone today and even hung up the call on me!" He buried his head in his wife’s embrace.
Isabella Rossi, with a gentle look, helplessly patted his back in comfort. "Julia has grown up now and has her own free will. Besides, you should be grateful that she isn’t in love with some random kid on the street. The one she has eyes for is someone from the Harper family, and besides, Kevin’s conditions aren’t that bad. If she truly gets with him, she certainly won’t suffer in the future."
"You could say that, but..." Marco was still apprehensive.
Over the years, he had not seen a single woman who managed to get close to Kevin. If Julia went overboard and angered him, things would not end well.
However, if she actually succeeded in capturing his heart, Marco would support it wholeheartedly with all his might!
After all, the Harper family’s men are lifelong choices worth entrusting her to.
Isabella sighed, "Even if you’re worried, Julia has liked him for so long. There’s no way she would give up so easily. Plus, I think our daughter is quite courageous. I mean, how many ladies have the guts to confess to someone in public like that?"
She saw Kevin as a reserved person who needed someone outgoing and passionate like Julia to open him up. Otherwise, two reserved people together would be like two peas in a pod, wouldn’t they?
"Moreover, just think about it, if Julia were to marry into the Harper family, a union between our families would only make business flourish."
She was very confident in her daughter.
Hearing her say that, Marco could only let out a long sigh and leave everything to fate. He only hoped Julia’s wishes could truly come true.
Sitting inside the car, Kevin’s expression was very grim as he instructed, "Don’t let the young madam know about today’s incident, and handle all the surveillance videos. They should never be leaked online."
"Yes." The bodyguard nodded.
He was a married man now. What if Jessie saw news about him being involved in a love scandal?
