Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart(There He Is Again)(Julian Hughes and Emelia Jones) novel Chapter 328

Two days after the news was released, Julian knew his plan worked till Eric called him.

But Eric mocked in a flat tone, "Do you think I'll be angry with your little story?"

Julian asked, "Why are you calling me?"

He continued, "I heard you sent someone to check your sister's school grades. I wonder how would it feel when I found out my sister is a study slacker full of lies."

Eric gritted his teeth over the phone as Julian continued, "Well, your sister was a good student who won scholarships, at first, but unluckily, she picked a wrong way."

"You want to know why I'm calling you?" Eric interrupted with a mischievous smile tugging at his lips, "I just think you might miss your sister."

As Eric's voice fell, Caroline's heart-wrenching scream rose. "Julian, help!"

Caroline cried hysterically. "They made me take drugs and turned me into a damn druggie. Julian, you have to save me, or I'll die!"

"They torture me, not giving me food..."

"Julian!" Caroline's miserable scream went to an abrupt stop as if she fainted.

Julian turned on the speakerphone, and Emelia was listening to this conversation. Caroline's scream turned Emelia's face pale.

Taking drugs was something serious.

This was bad because no one knew how much Caroline had taken. She might die if she got too many drugs into her system.

Emelia shot an anxious glance at Julian, who was in a badly sulk.

But Julian wasn't surprised because Caroline was drinking what she brewed.

Eric's tease lingered in Julian's ear. "Did you hear that? Mr. Hughes."

Julian sneered, "Before everything, listen up, I won't save her."

This was the first step Eric fought back. He wanted Julian to save Caroline and then turned the situation around.

So, Julian should stay assertive in this psychological warfare.

Eric showed his hands, "I'll take Caroline to Avonsor Hill in 40 minutes. If you want to save her, meet me there in an hour. Otherwise, you'll never see her again."

"Oh, kindly remind, the drug in Caroline was a lot enough to take her life. She will die at any minute."

"Don't call the police. My people are everywhere in Avonsor Hill. Once they find out any police officer, Caroline is dead."

Eric hung up before Julian could say anything.

He was gambling on Caroline.

Julian could convince himself not to save Caroline, but Heather couldn't. She was begging Julian to save her daughter.
