At this moment, 'Julia' began to believe in the killing power of her beautiful face. Originally, she thought that Barrett Walker would be excited to meet her for the first time, and then ask her for an autograph and take a photo, but his stiff and bewildered look made her doubt herself. Now, looking at these two fair-skinned girls with porcelain-like faces showing their admiration for her, she felt confident again.

Smiling and greeting, she said, "Hello, everyone."

Barrett Walker looked at the two girls excitedly and wanted to calm them down to eat, but the headache-inducing problem made him cover his ears in pain.

The three women caused a commotion for a long time, signing autographs and taking photos, showcasing the fervor of the fans. Barrett Walker could only wait helplessly, and said to the three women, "Hurry up and eat!"

'Julia' heard Barrett Walker's familiar tone and felt strange, but she didn't show any abnormal behavior. Instead, she sat at the table with understanding. The interruption by Barrett Walker felt like a sudden drop in temperature, and the four of them ate in silence, with the speed of their chopsticks flying quickly.

Nancy Phoenix had no ladylike appearance, searching for her favorite food in the large pot and grabbing it all into her bowl. Suddenly, she exclaimed, "Ah! My dish! Don't steal it." The chopsticks quickly snatched the food from 'Julia's' chopsticks.

She was slightly surprised to see her food being stolen, but then she quickly grabbed a piece from Nancy Phoenix's bowl and put it in her mouth, unable to bear the heat and continuously breathing out. This moment stunned all four of them, and after a brief moment of absentmindedness, they all laughed almost simultaneously, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

"Is the food I made delicious?" Barrett Walker asked with a smile.

"Humph! It's barely passable, but it's enjoyable to eat all these things cooked together," insincerely said Nancy Phoenix.

"It's quite delicious. I've never had anything like it before," said Lucy Phoenix. In her impression, people in the slums received government-issued nutrient solutions every day, which she had seen and found repulsive. However, today, seeing Barrett Walker cook such a mixed dish, it seemed fresh and tasted good.

"It's quite tasty," she said during a pause, quickly searching for more food with her chopsticks, without displaying any airs of a big star.

"Good food is good!" With her labor being appreciated, and by such beautiful people, she felt elated. Watching the three of them quickly moving their chopsticks, Barrett Walker slowed down.

"Lie down! You have a cold, so as to prevent it from recurring later!" Watching the women eat with sweat streaming down their faces due to the spiciness, even though they didn't eat much, Barrett Walker felt satisfied. He stood up to clean the dishes and told 'Julia'.

She was slightly surprised, but then nodded. Instead of moving, she stood up to help clean up, secretly lamenting that she had missed the opportunity to impress Barrett Walker today.

"Don't move! I'll clean up," Barrett Walker said to Lucy Phoenix, who tried to help, and then looked at Nancy Phoenix, who was sitting on a stool against the wall. She seemed more like an old man, almost to the extent of patting her belly and giving orders. Barrett Walker finished cleaning up and took the dishwashing detergent and basin to the bathing area.

Lucy Phoenix glanced at her sister, stood up, and followed Barrett Walker to the bathing area.

"Are you and him really in a relationship?" Nancy Phoenix sat up and asked in a serious tone, despite her strong admiration for the big star. She didn't want to see her sister heartbroken, so she asked.

She thought about what she had heard while hiding under the covers, and then looked at the naive appearance of this girl, who was only a few years younger than herself. She laughed and asked, "What do you think?"

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

"I think not! But the fact is right in front of us. A man and a woman alone in a room, and there's only one bed. He takes care of you intimately. I don't think you would have a mansion to live in, and you're experiencing life in such a place!" Nancy Phoenix looked at Julia with a smile but felt somewhat angry in her heart. She spoke earnestly with a serious face.

"Since the fact is right in front of us, why do you ask?" 'Julia' felt that this girl was quite amusing and continued to tease her.

"He's not worthy of you! Look at the place he's living in..." Nancy Phoenix was getting anxious.

"Love is not about worthiness. And what about you! I think your background is not bad, right?" She sat on the bed, although it was just a single bed. However, this illness had warmed her heart. Living a life of struggle and seduction, she was already tired. Unfortunately, she was not the real 'Julia' and couldn't enter his heart. She could feel that Barrett Walker's care for 'Julia' was sincere, without any ulterior motives. A top assassin like her had a very sensitive feeling, otherwise she wouldn't have survived until now. She had many opportunities to kill Barrett Walker, but her curiosity seemed like a chain that tightly bound her heart, and now she couldn't break free. "Also, at your age, you're just curious about these things, so don't try them lightly, or else you'll only hurt yourselves. This is advice from someone who has been there!"

"Hmph! You just want us to leave, don't you? Even though we like your work, we don't like you as a person. What do you mean by 'been there'? My mother taught me how to judge people, and you really seem like someone who has 'been there'!" Nancy Phoenix seized on her words, stood up abruptly, and said firmly.

"Yes! When I'm done with my business, I'll leave. But for you, I advise you not to get involved. Your delicate bodies can't bear such a storm!" She looked a bit desolate. She didn't expect that a top assassin like her was gradually losing her edge. The value of her skills was now only worth a meal.

Barrett Walker didn't know that a good drama was unfolding in the room. Suddenly, he felt a tightness around his waist, and a fiery body pressed against his back, almost igniting the flames within Barrett Walker. Restraining himself, he turned around and indeed saw Lucy Phoenix, looking at her naive appearance, with a flushed face, as if a fire was burning.

"You..." Barrett Walker's words were stuck in his throat. His mind was filled with Lucy's bold appearance, almost leaning against him. Barrett Walker immediately grabbed her shoulders and pushed her away, saying with a complicated expression, "Lucy, why would you do this? You're still young!"

Lucy Phoenix felt regret in her heart. Where had her usual courage and boldness gone? She wanted to press against him again, but she couldn't take that step. Listening to Barrett Walker's words, she suddenly raised her head, straightened her slightly naive chest, and said, "I'm not young anymore. I've already entered the Academy of War!"

"Lucy, be my little sister!" Barrett Walker affectionately patted her head. He didn't expect that his playful behavior would cause such a big trouble. "The person you saw at the ball yesterday, that's my real girlfriend. She fell ill in front of my door, so I brought her in. It's nothing more than that."

"You are truly kind!" If 'Julia' was his girlfriend, perhaps she would give up, but since it was Monica, she didn't want to let go. Feeling Barrett Walker's touch, her heart couldn't help but race. In his presence, she couldn't summon her innate boldness. "You want me to be your little sister! That's fine, but you have to agree to a condition!"

Barrett Walker gazed at the immaculate face of Lucy Phoenix, a faint blush rising on his own cheeks. She was exceptionally beautiful, and it was evident that once she fully matured, she would be a strikingly gorgeous woman, capable of achieving the same level of fame as Julia. Barrett was momentarily lost in thought, resisting the urge to take a bite of her flawless, fair face. He finally spoke, "As long as it's not too outrageous, I will agree to it."

"It won't be too outrageous!" Lucy, now resembling a graceful bird, with her beautiful eyes forming crescents, planted a kiss on Barrett's face and then darted away. She turned back with a smile and said, "This rogue of a girl!"

"That little rascal!" Barrett cursed inwardly, but he couldn't deny the pleasure of her damp, soft and smooth touch, especially the warmth against his face. He breathed a sigh of relief, finally freeing himself from this romantic entanglement. He realized he would have to be more cautious in the future. Surprisingly, he found himself quite popular. Barrett indulgently caressed his own face, watching Lucy running away, before realizing he hadn't discussed the so-called conditions yet.

"These two young girls, so impetuous!" He set down the cleaned dishes and returned with the basin.

As Barrett turned the corner, he saw a crowd of people gathered outside his apartment door, gesturing and gossiping. The sound of two women arguing, though subdued, echoed through the building. Hurriedly, he pushed through the crowd and entered the room, only to find Julia looking dejected and vulnerable, while Nancy Phoenix stood haughtily, suddenly collapsing without warning.

Watching Julia fall, Barrett's face grew as solemn as a still pool of water. He dropped the basin and swiftly used his abilities to reach Julia's side, pushing Nancy aside to check on her. As he held her in his arms, he realized that despite it being a memory from a previous life, he still deeply loved her.
