**Chapter 291**<\/p>\n
Julian\u2019s fingers, long and slender, danced delicately over the tablet screen, the soft tapping echoing in the quiet of the room as he scrolled down slowly, his brow furrowed in concentration.<\/p>\n
His eyes flicked across the words on the screen, a thread of anxiety weaving through his thoughts. *[I think it\u2019s normal. When my wife and I first started dating, I couldn\u2019t even last through kissing before finishing. Now that we\u2019re married, I can last at least half an hour.]*<\/p>\n
He let out a soft snort of disbelief at the comparison. *[Normal? My first time with a stranger from a bar lasted more than 20 minutes, okay?]*<\/p>\n
Julian shook his head, a faint smile creeping onto his lips despite the tension in his chest. *[Idiot. Hookups and real love aren\u2019t the same. The more you like a girl, the easier it is to get overstimulated. Especially for those late-blooming 30-year-old virgins.]*<\/p>\n
The words struck a chord, and he couldn\u2019t help but feel a pang of embarrassment. *[Hilarious. Don\u2019t make excuses for premature ejaculation. If it happens again the second time, what excuse will you use then?]*<\/p>\n
The banter continued, but Julian felt a knot of frustration tighten in his stomach. *[If you\u2019re not confident, wait. Take some time to adjust. Try again when you\u2019re ready.]*<\/p>\n
He paused, his brow twitching slightly. Earlier this year, he had undergone a comprehensive medical examination, and everything had come back perfectly normal. Yet, here he was, caught in a whirlwind of self-doubt and insecurity.<\/p>\n
With a sigh, he turned back to the search bar, fingers hesitating before he typed in another question: *[If premature ejaculation occurs, what can be done to improve it?]*<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, at Delta Mansion, the atmosphere was relaxed, with Elliot, Peter, and a few others lounging casually on the first floor, their laughter filling the air.<\/p>\n
As Raymond stepped inside, he paused mid-stride, curiosity piqued. \u201cJules in the study?\u201d he inquired, his voice laced with intrigue.<\/p>\n
Peter was quick to respond, pointing upstairs with a grin. \u201cIn the gym, working out. Two hours now. Hasn\u2019t stopped once.\u201d<\/p>\n
Raymond raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flickering across his face. \u201cSo he\u2019s going for the macho route now?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
Outside, Sydney stepped out of her car at the clinic entrance, a sense of determination propelling her forward. After reminding Tiffany to take care, she turned and strode inside with purpose. The office door stood ajar, and she assumed it was merely the cleaners at work.<\/p>\n
However, the moment she crossed the threshold, a long-haired boy rushed toward her, his voice still tinged with the awkwardness of adolescence. \u201cSyd! Did you miss me?!\u201d<\/p>\n
Sydney couldn\u2019t help but laugh, her heart warming as she hugged him lightly, playfully ruffling his shaggy hair. \u201cWhen did you get back?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTwo days ago! Last night I went to my uncle\u2019s place and begged him to bring me here today!\u201d he exclaimed, excitement bubbling in his voice.<\/p>\n
Marcus followed closely behind, a smile on his face as he explained the situation. Then, with a knowing look, he shot his nephew a pointed glance. \u201cSince you\u2019re free, get that mop of hair cut. Your mom hasn\u2019t stopped nagging me about it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ever since moving abroad with his father, Billy Quinton had let his hair grow wild and unruly, a symbol of his newfound freedom.<\/p>\n
He clung to Sydney, protesting dramatically, \u201cSyd, don\u2019t let him boss me around! He\u2019s just like my mom. He nagged me all night.\u201d<\/p>\n
Marcus\u2019s tone was mild yet firm as he corrected him. \u201cCall her Ms. Wilson. Where are your manners?\u201d<\/p>\n
Billy grinned sheepishly, the mischief in his eyes evident. \u201cThen I\u2019ll call her \u2018sis\u2019 instead. My mom says all single women can be called that.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d Marcus conceded, glancing at the time. \u201cBut your sister has work to do. Go wait in my office and don\u2019t distract her.\u201d<\/p>\n
Billy, bright-eyed and cheerful, released Sydney\u2019s shoulders. \u201cOkay, sis, I\u2019ll wait outside. When you\u2019re done, let\u2019s have lunch together.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSure,\u201d Sydney replied, her smile genuine as she watched him head out.<\/p>\n
The morning unfolded in a steady stream of patients, each one bringing their own stories and concerns.<\/p>\n
Remembering her promise to Billy, Sydney made a conscious effort to keep her schedule manageable. She took only those who had traveled from out of town, rescheduling local appointments for the following day.<\/p>\n
By noon, Marcus and Billy were already waiting by her office door, their anticipation palpable. Since Billy hadn\u2019t been back to Hoseon in quite some time, they decided on Moonshine Pavilion, renowned for its authentic local cuisine.<\/p>\n
As they approached the restaurant entrance, another group emerged from the opposite side, catching Sydney\u2019s eye.<\/p>\n
At the forefront was Julian, impeccably dressed in a tailored suit, engaged in quiet conversation with a middle-aged man beside him. His presence exuded an unmistakable air of authority, a stark contrast to the casual atmosphere of the restaurant.<\/p>\n
Behind him, Charlotte balanced a stack of documents, her expression focused.<\/p>\n
On his other side, a cheerful young woman, barely past her twenties, clung close to him, her bright smile a stark reminder of the world outside Sydney\u2019s immediate concerns.<\/p>\n
Sydney\u2019s gaze flickered, a mix of emotions surging through her. She was about to follow Marcus and Billy inside when a deep, steady voice called out from behind her, breaking her thoughts. \u201cPrecious, come here for a moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the quiet aftermath of their respective journeys, both Julian and Sydney found themselves at a crossroads, their paths intertwined yet distinct. Julian, grappling with his insecurities, had retreated into the solace of self-improvement, his determination to conquer his fears evident in the hours spent at the gym. The laughter of friends and the warmth of camaraderie surrounded him, but it was the deeper connection he sought that lingered at the forefront of his mind. Meanwhile, Sydney, buoyed by the return of her younger brother, embraced the joy of familial bonds, her heart swelling with affection as she balanced her professional responsibilities with personal commitments. The laughter and anticipation of lunch with Billy reminded her of the simple yet profound joys that life had to offer.<\/p>\n
As their stories converged in the bustling atmosphere of Moonshine Pavilion, the air crackled with unspoken possibilities. Julian\u2019s authoritative presence contrasted with the warmth of the restaurant, a reminder of the duality of his life\u2014one rooted in ambition and the other in vulnerability. Sydney, caught in a moment of hesitation, felt the pull of her past and the promise of her future. The call of Julian\u2019s voice echoed in her ears, a gentle nudge urging her to embrace the connections that had shaped her journey. In that instant, the ocean of their emotions swirled together, carrying with it the weight of their experiences and the hope of what lay ahead, as they both stood on the precipice of change, ready to discover what it meant to truly be seen and heard by one another.<\/p>\n
