Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 617

In the afternoon, Janina felt the need to go for a walk. Her mind was a chaotic mess, and she desperately wanted to clear her head.

Queenie accompanied her in silence, keeping a respectful distance behind her.

They had barely left the complex when Julius suddenly darted out from the side.

"Janina!"

Julius's heart pounded with excitement. He strode toward her, taking two steps at a time.

His voice startled Janina. For a moment, she thought she was going crazy, that her mind was playing tricks on her.

But as the man drew closer, she realized she wasn't hallucinating.

It really was Julius.

Her already foul mood soured even further.

Just as Julius was about to reach her, Queenie swiftly moved to block his path, her eyes fixed on him with a hostile glare.

Julius frowned, his intense gaze bypassing Queenie to land on Janina.

She wore no makeup, her face bare, her hair casually twisted into a small bun.

She looked so ordinary, yet to him, she outshone every other woman. He used to find fault with everything about her, but now he understood that the days he had grown tired of were the most genuine and blissful moments of his life.

"I've been waiting at the gate for you for days," he said. "I... I want to see Liam and Joy."

He had wanted to say he wanted to see *her*, but the words caught in his throat. Fearing he would scare her away, he changed his request at the last second.
