Chapter 278 Watch Your Back
At night, Alisa was finally the enchanting lady she had always been. She wore a red dress that accentuated her curvaceous figure. With that said, I didn't expect that there would only be three of us at dinner with Julian.
Julian looked at Alisa's dress and pursed his lips. "Ladies who wear overly tight bras are susceptible to breast cancer. Take her for example. He pointed at me.
I felt awkward. Actually, I didn't get breast cancer because of bras.
Alisa cast her image aside and rolled her eyes at him. "My breasts are au naturel. I don't have to squeeze them to make a cleavage. You're supposed to be a doctor, too. I take it you've never seen a lady with such a voluptuous figure, have you?" All of a sudden, Alisa suddenly leaned in closer to Julian. "How about we have some fun someday?"
"It's a deal," Julian said, and I almost spit out the water I'd just drank. Both of them kept talking to each other and didn't pay any attention to me. Then, it hit me.
This explained why Alisa wanted Julian to inform me about tonight's dinner. Had they started having feelings for each other without them knowing it?
I thought about how two more sharp-tongued people were going to be around me, and I felt a little relieved that they were on my side.
I listened to them bicker with each other. Occasionally, they would speak coquettishly to one another. I found the sight quite intriguing. Was this how it felt to see the drama unfold before

With that said, Alisa gave me a big hug when she went back to the hotel at the end of the meal. "You have my support for the divorce, Eva. I'll surely be there when you two go through with the divorce.
"It isn't as if you don't have a home. You've got me, and we're the only ones left at the Green family. You can always count on my support."
I sniffled and felt a sting in my eyes. Then, Alisa aggressively pushed me away and said, "From here on out, we are family to each other.
"Focus on your business. I have your back. When the time comes, find yourself a young and healthy fellow. On the contrary, you have to back me up when someone picks on me in the future."
I stared at Alisa with disbelief. Who could ever pick on her?
Alisa couldn't help but look at Julian, whose ears reddened suspiciously. I nodded firmly. Relax. I'm his most important test subject now. If he picks on you, I'll flat-out refuse to accept Chapp27 Watcll Your Back
treatment from him."
Alisa stopped crying and smiled instead. Then, she urged both of us back to the hospital.
Julian worked the night shift tonight. I was still feeling blurry when he took me back.
"You guys are...
"We've just started dating."
"Did you guys..."
"We haven't slept with each other yet."
"Once she's gone back..."
"She'll come here to build her career in the future. Are there any more questions?"
Julian prevented me from asking further questions. So, I quickly shook my head. All of a sudden, I giggled. Fate truly had a strange way of bringing people together.
The next day, both of us sent Alisa away together. She was actually reluctant to go. After all, her newfound boyfriend was still here. However, there were too many things waiting to be. handled at Keenan Corporation. It wasn't easy for her to have visited me for such a long time.
Before Alisa left, she and Julian had some lovey-dovey moments again. Julian
uncharacteristically showed some reluctance to part in his expression. It was an intriguing
sight.
I secretly took a picture and sent it to Jill. In the end, Jill sent me a disdainful emoticon.
"Did you just find out about it? I saw it the first time I laid eyes on them. There was something more to the two of them than met the eye."
I sighed slightly on the inside. I spent more than 20 years on earth, but I had only ever dated Leonard. Naturally, I wasn't that perceptive.
With that said, Alisa didn't forget to remind me before she left.
"Amelia is too extreme. I've seen plenty of women like her. Watch your back because she's not going to let you go. Don't ever meet with her by yourself."
