CHAPTER 089

JULIAN’S POV

“Thank you,” I said to the delivery guy, handing over the cash for his fee and collecting the brown paper bags filled with the food I had ordered earlier. He nodded, gave me a half–smile, and turned back toward his motorbike.

With the bags in hand, I turned around and walked back into the orphanage. The kids. had already been taken back to their rooms, just like I had instructed. I could hear soft chatter and laughter from one of the rooms upstairs, and it brought a small, fleeting. smile to my face.

My phone buzzed in my pocket. A call. Again. My eyes glanced at the screen and saw the name flash across: Mom.

For a brief moment, I considered ignoring it. After all, I had just spoken to her not even an hour ago. But I couldn’t forget the fact that she had helped me out earlier today. Whether or not I liked it, I owed her a little grace. I sighed and accepted the call. bracing myself for whatever she was about to throw at me.

“Julian, you’re so lucky you picked up. I was already starting to think you’d backstabbed me,” she said

“You spoke to me less than an hour ago,” I replied, trying to keep my voice calm. “What can I help you with now, Mom?”

“You’ve gotten what you wanted, and now your shoulders are high,” she said in that sarcastic tone she had mastered over the years. “Very funny. Anyway, I just wanted to inform you that I’ll be coming to your city.”

“You didn’t ask me to come, that’s why I’m coming,” she said flatly. “Since you wouldn’t come to me, I’ll come to you.

I could hear the sound of a zipper being yanked through fabric in the background. Great–she was already packing.

God, why would she ever come successfully unlocked!

liking. “It’s just for a few days. Besides, there’s enough room in the mansion. So why are you sounding like this?”

Am not even going to answer this question, there was too much going on right now. for her to come and add to the stress, I wasn’t free at the moment and I didn’t want her to find out about any of this.

“Mom, my hands are full at the moment. I’m hardly around, so there’s really no point in you coming,” I tried again, hoping logic would work.

But of course, it didn’t.

“No, you can’t change my mind, son,” she said. “I’ve packed my bags and booked my flight, so I’ll see you soon.
