The Billionaire Ex-Wife and the Beggar He Became novel Chapter 478

With that, Julian stood up, grabbed his car keys, and walked out the door.

"Julian, where are you going?" Felicity cried after him, but he didn't answer.

She sat alone on the floor and wept until she had no strength left. Only then did she remember she hadn't eaten in over a day. In the detention center, she had found the food disgusting and refused to eat a single bite.

"Sophie, make me something to eat," Felicity called out weakly.

Sophie slowly emerged from the staff quarters, looking at Felicity as if she were a stray dog. "If you want to eat, make it yourself. I've already quit. I'm not your maid anymore!"

"You…" Felicity didn't even have the strength to get up and discipline her.

Since the maid wouldn't cook for her, she had no choice but to call her family. She tried her parents, her grandparents, and her brother, but only her father Teague's phone was on. The rest were all off. Teague, however, didn't answer.

She tried again. This time, someone picked up, but it wasn't Teague. The voice on the other end was cold. "Who is this?"

"This is my father's phone. Who are you?" Felicity asked.

Behind Winona, another figure was always with her, dressed in the same gear, working side-by-side. It was Yves Prescott.

Julian approached Winona, a storm of conflicting emotions churning inside him. When she saw him, she showed no surprise. She had predicted this day would come months ago.

"You knew this would happen all along, didn't you? You're the real designer of the retirement project, aren't you?" Julian asked.
