CHAPTER 342: CHAPTER 342: LOVE MAKES PEOPLE LOSE JUDGMENT

Gloria Galloway’s tears stopped instantly, she really wanted to know what Eleanor Hollis had to say.

"Gloria."

Eleanor Hollis patted her on the shoulder, speaking with sincere concern.

"Julian Sterling, this person looks gentlemanly and gentle, but he’s precisely the one who hides the deepest. He’s afraid of trouble, and you’re his assistant. I believe that initially, he didn’t want you to become his assistant. When females and males interact, there are indeed some places where they can’t fully open up, and females can easily develop feelings of admiration for men like him. Once this factor is present, the actions you take will lose the correct judgment."

Eleanor Hollis wiped her eyes with a tissue, feeling a bit of heartache.

"If you don’t like Julian Sterling, have no feelings for him whatsoever, then would you still work tirelessly to cook soup for him? Would you still snatch it back when the female star reached out for it? If you were just a dedicated and responsible assistant, none of this would happen, Gloria, do you know why Julian Sterling was angry?"

Eleanor Hollis, as an outsider, saw everything clearly.

And Gloria Galloway became the person in the middle of it all, unable to wrap her mind around it.

Usually, she could teach others a lesson with precision, but when faced with her own problems, her mind didn’t function well.

"You brought your personal emotions into your work. If the female star had posted that scene online, as his assistant, you would have become a liability for Julian Sterling, and everyone would think you’re immature. Since Julian Sterling debuted, he’s never had any scandals. He’s always been meticulous about his actions and words, and your behavior today crossed his line."

What Eleanor Hollis said was exactly what was on Julian Sterling’s mind.

He dislikes that Gloria Galloway brought such personal emotions into work and caused trouble for him.

He had already said before that he wouldn’t let a woman become his assistant. Once a woman develops other feelings for him, she loses the basic judgment in her actions.

Gloria Galloway’s pupils suddenly constricted, understanding what Eleanor Hollis was trying to express.

Her liking for Julian Sterling was her own business, Julian Sterling had long made it clear he would not be with her.

She forgot her responsibilities as an assistant and thus lost her temper with his partner regardless of the occasion.

Gloria Galloway’s head suddenly drooped, knowing that Eleanor Hollis was very right, feeling guilty yet aggrieved for a moment.

Once emotions arise, trying to control them becomes really difficult.

Especially since the female star had inappropriate thoughts about Julian Sterling, and the soup was intentionally spilled on her body.

She sighed, but as Eleanor Hollis said, if she didn’t like Julian Sterling, she wouldn’t have cooked the soup herself, wouldn’t have gotten angry at the female star, and wouldn’t have worried about what the female star thought of Julian Sterling.

"I understand, Eleanor, what do you think I should do?"

Now Julian Sterling is definitely with that female star at the hospital. That woman is quite seriously injured and will probably take a week to recover.

Eleanor Hollis patted her on the shoulder, not knowing what to do either. According to Julian Sterling’s impending character, he would definitely talk to Gloria Galloway about terminating the contract. He is inherently the coldest and most rational one.

Eleanor Hollis guessed correctly. The next afternoon, Julian Sterling called Gloria Galloway, hoping to terminate her contract and find someone else to be his assistant, insisting it must be a man.

Gloria Galloway panicked instantly, and after answering the phone, she hid in her house at a loss, not daring to see Julian Sterling.

An hour later, Julian Sterling made the second call, saying someone would come to talk to her about the contract termination. It seemed there was no room for retention.

Gloria Galloway opened her mouth but didn’t know what she should say, until someone knocked on her door, she walked stiffly to the door.

Someone from Julian Sterling’s side came to discuss the contract termination.

Gloria Galloway stood by the door for a while, peering out through the peephole, she didn’t want to open the door.

Trying to buy some time, she thought, but then saw the person outside suddenly reveal a fierce look, tinkering with something in their hands.

Scared, Gloria Galloway retreated a step, it wasn’t Julian Sterling’s people, his people wouldn’t forcibly break in.

A thief?

She hurriedly went to her room and locked the door tightly, but it was too difficult to escape through the window at this height.

She moved everything she could to the door, propped it firmly with a long stool, and then called Eleanor Hollis, hoping she would come to rescue her before the thief broke in.

Her heart kept pounding, believing that any single girl living alone at this moment would feel scared.

Eleanor Hollis received the message and was shocked, hurriedly bringing Hugo Quinn and several other bodyguards over, hoping Gloria Galloway wouldn’t get into trouble.

Outside Gloria Galloway’s door, two strangers had already unlocked the door with tools, then cautiously stepped in, starting to search the room.

Gloria Galloway tightly covered her mouth, listening to the noises in the living room.

When she came in, she didn’t forget to bring the cat in, just afraid the cat would be harmed outside.

The two men could come in so quickly, it seemed they had tools with them, she grew even more anxious and stood tensely by the window.

If anything were to happen, she would jump out from here.

The two men didn’t find cash and began getting agitated, and by now, the people Julian Sterling sent had arrived.

This time Julian Sterling came along too. After all, Gloria Galloway is Eleanor Hollis’s friend, and Eleanor Hollis is the woman of his brother, he couldn’t be negligent. Even for termination, he had to discuss it properly.

However, as soon as they entered the living room, they saw the men rummaging through the place.

Julian Sterling’s eyebrows knitted together, his face instantly turning dark.

"Who are you?!"

The two men didn’t expect anyone to come at this time. They had scoped the place for a few days, usually there shouldn’t be anyone at this time.

Frightened, they immediately grabbed a nearby fruit knife and swung it towards Julian Sterling.

Julian Sterling’s skills were quick, grabbing the man and then threw him over his shoulder, slamming him to the ground.

The assistant who came with him was already stunned, standing still not daring to move.

Another fruit knife suddenly also stabbed toward Julian Sterling. Julian Sterling wanted to block with his hand, but the thief seemed skilled, changing direction midway to stab towards his thigh.

Julian Sterling’s complexion turned pale, he endured the pain and kicked them away.

"What are you standing there for? Knock them out quickly!"

He shouted to the person standing next to him, and the assistant finally reacted, hurriedly smashing a vase on the thief’s head.

The thief instantly passed out, while Julian Sterling’s leg was bleeding heavily.
