His Ex-Luna Is A Famous Doctor by Caroline Above Story Novel

Chapter 0035 Arias POV I was worried about Piper , but I couldnt leave without saying goodbye to Julia and Harold .

After all , my curiosity over what Lucian might say was only part of the reason I came tonight .

My main priority had been to say farewell to his parents , knowing this would likely be the last time that I saw them .

Oh , Aria , Julia said , as I gave her a tight hug .

Are you sure you have to leave ? You cant stay and work things out with Lucian ? Im sorry , I told her and meant it .

In another life , maybe we could have all been happy together .

As it was , Lucian and I felt doomed , and I was growing exhausted allowing myself to have glimmers of hope otherwise ..

Julia squeezed my shoulders .

Its not your fault .

Gods , I loved this woman as much as if shed been my own mother .

As an orphan , she was the closest thing Id ever had to one .

I hated to lose her , but I didnt see how I could keep her while distancing myself from the pack .

It wouldnt be right .

I had to cut everyone off .

After my hug with Julia ended , Harold came in to hug me next .

No matter what happens , he said , dont become a stranger .

I wished I could promise that , and it broke my heart a little to be unable to .

Thank you both , I said to them .

Pulling away from Harold , I took one last look at each of them .

It was a bittersweet kind of moment as we all looked at each other .

They didnt say it , but I think they knew , as much as I did , that this was likely the last time we would see each other .

You take care of yourself , Harold said .

If you need anything , you can call us , Julia said .

She didnt add Lucian doesnt have to know , but I still heard it clearly in her voice .

Goodbye , I told them and , with one last look , turned and walked away .

Jasper was waiting for me near the front door .

He pointed to the suit coat hanging over my shoulders .

Lucians .

Id totally forgotten about it .

No , I said and shucked it off .

Folding it , I placed it on top of a chair near the door .

Then , I straightened , rallying all of my strength .

I wanted to fall apart , but I couldnt .

Piper needed me .

I had to be at my best to be able to assist her as Dr.

A.

Im ready , I told Jasper .

He was holding the handle to the front door but not quite opening it yet .

Instead , he was looking at me rather strangely , as if seeing me for the first time .

Jasper ? Right .

Sorry .

Shaking his head , he opened the door .

Jaspers POV I didnt understand what was happening to me .

Id only brought Aria here tonight because I thought it would be funny as hell watching Lucian squirm .

That Aria looked fantastic only added to the fun .

Yet , when I found her talking to Lucian in the garden , I hadnt felt amused at all .

And now , as I watched her pull herself together near the door , I almost felt … fond ? Was that possible ? Was I capable of feeling that ? Shed been crying in the garden .

Her eye makeup was messed up , with the dampness pulling much of her eyeliner down to the bottom of her eye rather than the top .

Chapter 0035 +25 BONUS Yet , even so , after shucking Lucians coat , shed pulled herself together like some kind of goddess , tall and proud unshakable .

Admirable .

Her inner strength was quiet and proud .

She didnt feel the need to spread it around ; she simply was .

If someone wasnt looking , they could miss how brilliant she was .

Lucian didnt see .

I hadnt either for a while not until this very moment .
