The words had barely fallen.
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
Julian's broad steps halted right there.
Isabella stood beside him, like two perfect statues, poised at the entrance of the amusement park, mere inches apart.
Neither advancing.
Nor retreating.
There seemed to be a respect for Arthur.
And also, a resistance to Arthur.
At the critical moment, Ella Lacey still needed to play dumb, giggling, "Honey, are you sure little Daniel didn't invite Julian?"
Julian?
Arthur Lindsey's deep starry eyes suddenly widened.
Is this woman really reverting to Ella Adair?
He smirked slightly, "Would what I say be false, hmm?"
"Only heaven knows... unless we get little Daniel over here to ask him face to face." Ella Lacey argued.
"Ridiculous."
Arthur said firmly, blocking all her options, "There's no need for that."
"Hey... Honey, why are you being so stubborn!"
