Hearing Julian Rhodes say, "Got it, I'll be there on time."
After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone and saw Scarlett Xavier staring at him.
Scarlett asked, "Are you going on a business trip?"
Julian said, "Yes, going for a few days."
After he said this, noticing some reluctance in Scarlett's eyes, Julian asked, "What's wrong? Can't bear to be apart from me?"
Scarlett said, "I don't know why, just a bit scared of you leaving."
"..." Hearing this, Julian smirked, reached out, held Scarlett's hand, and asked, "Why are you scared?"
"Afraid you won't come back." She also found it strange.
She realized that every time he mentioned leaving, she couldn't help but worry about him.
Julian said, "Won't be leaving Ardendale, just within the city, just two or three hours away from Ardendale. The kind where I can come back anytime."
Although Scarlett herself didn't know the reason, Julian actually knew why she feared his leaving.
