"Good afternoon, too!". Julian replied lazily without glancing at Sherly beside him.
Sherly tries to control her emotions when Julian ignores her existence.
"Hi Marion, long time no see, thank you for inviting me to meet here!". Sherly said, smiling sweetly at Marion.
"You're welcome!". Marion replied as if he didn't do it on purpose.
Julian really doesn't like small talk, especially with people who make him uncomfortable after a few incidents.
People say, Sherly is a perfect woman, she is beautiful, smart and comes from a respectable family. Unfortunately Julian thinks Sherly is just a child who he has to respect her feelings for, but can't be more than a brother's feelings for his younger sister.
Not long after that, Julian stood up fixing his jacket.
"Sorry! I went first because of business".
Sherly's expression darkened, she was annoyed that Julian was about to leave when she just came.
