Chapter 110
Harry was very unhappy with Julia’s constant praise of Otis, listing Otis’s merits one by one with her fingers and telling Harry about them. He was petty, especially when he saw Julia laughing and chatting with Ori
Julia was beaming with joy as she spoke, which made Harry feel uncomfortable.
Then, Harry abruptly stopped the car. However, he was worried when he saw Julia almost getting hurt. He was about to reach out to check if she was injured, but Julia pushed his hand away before he could.
“Harry, do you dislike hearing me praise other men so much that you want to murder me?” Julia snapped.
Harry’s face turned red with anger. He immediately denied it. “You’re overthinking it. I wouldn’t murder you. I wouldn’t go to the extent of committing a crime for you”

Upon hearing this, Julia couldn’t help but chuckle. She turned the question back to Harry. “So, what were you doing just now? Are you uncomfortable with me praising Otis? Are you jealous?”
Jealous? Harry immediately regained his expressionless face. He was indeed very unhappy when he heard Julia praise Otis, but jealousy was something only a child would do. How could he be jealous, and how could such a thing happen to him?
Seeing Harry smirk, Julia continued, “If you’re not jealous, then why did you react so strongly when you heard me praising
Otis?”
“I’m not jealous,” Harry said firmly. Then he restarted the engine and continued driving home.
Julia stared intently at Harry’s profile. Under the dim streetlights, his face appeared somewhat obscured, and her vision became blurry, making it difficult to discern his expression. She couldn’t fathom what Harry was thinking.
It was said that one could see through other’s souls through their eyes. However, Julia couldn’t see into Harry’s heart through his eyes. Therefore, the eyes weren’t the windows to the soul after all.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Is it because you have nothing to say, or you don’t know how to refute me?” Julia chuckled. “Admitting to jealousy isn’t strange
Harry chuckled coldly. He was determined not to admit to jealousy.
“I’m driving, so stop bothering me.” Harry stopped talking to Jul, but her words had stirred up waves in his heart. Was I really uncomfortable because of jealousy? Did I feel irritated when I saw Julia laughing and chatting with Otis? But I had never felt this way before. He couldn’t distinguish where this feeling was coming from.
Back at home, Julia stood at the bedroom door. She watched Harry remain silent and ignore her. She couldn’t help but stare at his back and whispered, “Harry, you should admit you’re jealous. It’s not embarrassing”
Julia finished speaking, turned around with a smile, and immediately closed the door. She was mainly afraid that Harry would get angry and retaliate against her.
As Harry turned around, Julia had already closed the door. Images of Julia’s expressions and actions from earlier flashed through his mind. Thinking about it, he couldn’t help but smirk Perhaps she had a point.
Perhaps he was indeed jealous. Maybe he felt uneasy because Julia and Otis were getting too close. If he had to use one word to describe it, jealousy was the best word.
Harry returned to his room. He was unconcerned that his actions might disturb others‘ sleep at such a late hour. When he woke Asher up with a phone call, Harry engaged him in conversation without a hint of weariness.
“It’s the middle of the night, and two grown men are having a chat? If you can’t sleep, why not we come out for a few drinks and enjoy ourselves Asher suggested.

“No drinking, just chatting–have a few questions for you, Harry replied.
Asher yawned and asked. “What questions are worth keeping you up at this hour? I’m curious to hear.”
As long as it was about gossip, Asher would definitely be very excited.

“About a friend of mine… Harry began, as most stories often did He briefly explained the situation and then asked Asher, “Do you think he’s jealous?”
Asher chuckled on the other end of the line. He remarked, “Your friend sounds a lot like someone I know. Based on what I know about him, it’s definitely jealousy. No doubt about that.”
Harry responded, “So, you think it’s jealousy too?”
“What else could it be? Possessiveness? Even if it’s possessiveness, it’s only valid if there are feelings involved. If it’s just possessiveness without any affection, it’s just creepy. By the way, why would your friend consult you about relationship issues?” Asher asked.
“You don’t know him, so why ask so many questions?” Harry replied,
Worried he might miss out on gossip, Asher quickly continued. In my opinion, your friend probably likes this woman. That’s why he feels uncomfortable when he sees her with other men and gets irritated when she laughs and chats with them.”
“Likes her?” Harry echoed.
Asher affirmed. “Yeah. Trust me. Tell him if he likes her, don’t give up.”
Harry contemplated for a long time before hanging up Asher’s call, sitting on the balcony lost in thought about Asher’s words. He believed a man feeling jealous towards a woman was a sign of affection.
Harry was clear about his feelings for Julia. From the first time they met, he felt that Julia was the perfect wife for him. Over the three years of their marriage, Harry’s feelings for Julia never contained any hint of disgust or dislike.
He even believed that Julia had done everything to satisfy him during these three years. Without exaggeration, she was indeed a qualified wife
The night was beautiful, with a dark sky adorned with twinkling stars and a bright moon. As Harry gazed at the crescent moon, his mind was filled with images of every expression and smile of Julia
He missed her when she wasn’t around, felt comfortable and content when they were alone together, and grew angry when she ignored him for others. If these feelings weren’t love, then what else could they be?
Harry had a faint smile as he came to a realization. However, his thoughts soon turned to Julia’s attitude toward him, which saddened him. She seemed determined to divorce him.
After much contemplation, Harry decided to set aside his emotions for now. He hadn’t even investigated his father’s death truth yet, and Arya still had some usefulness to him. Revealing his feelings for Julia would only jeopardize her.
With a sigh, Harry couldn’t help but wonder about Julia’s feelings. If she didn’t like him, it was fine. He would make her fall
for him.
