Chapter 68
Every time Vivian went to the piano room to practice, Julie felt suffocated, Like she didn’t even want to stay in the villa.
At this time, Patricia had already gone back home.
Julie looked around the house, but there was no sign of her husband.
Bill had probably gone out to socialize with his friends.
She stood up slowly, and her knees still wobbled a little.
But the constant sound of bel canto from upstairs urged her to Leave the house as soon as possible.
Julie felt as if a boulder was pressing on her chest. It was only after she walked into the yard of the villa and the sound of Vivian’s singing faded into the distance that she breathed a long sigh of relief.
To her surprise, Julie suddenly saw a figure dressed in white on the lawn.
Upon taking a closer look, she found that it was Maria, practicing karate in a traditional white uniform.
It was dusk, and the sun was quickly sinking towards the horizon. In the dim light, Maria’s smooth and graceful moves looked even more powerful.
Julie was so fascinated by the scene that her spirits rose again. Even the grogginess from the wine gradually wore off.
When Maria stopped, Julie couldn’t help asking her about it.

“You seem very proficient in karate. Which master did you learn it from?”
As soon as Julie finished her question, however, she regretted saying those words.
After all, Maria came from the countryside. How could she know a master?
But still… Regret?
Julie had always been a prideful woman. The emotion she hated the most was regret.
“I taught myself. There are many videos about karate on the Internet,”
Maria said flatly.
Her words were always short and concise. She was not the type to voluntarily divulge information, such as the fact that she was only practicing karate in order to ease the frequency of her narcolepsy episodes.
“You’ve learned it very well. I know some karate masters, but I find them to be just so-so.”
Julie wanted to say something more, but quickly stopped herself.
