Julia had gotten the first aid kit and was pouring some coffee in a carafe
and getting one of Derek's usual mugs when Megan entered. It took
everything she had not to say or do something right then and she continued
to finish readying a tray for Derek, only to pick it up and walk by the
other woman. All she could do was hope Megan wouldn't push her luck right
now.
Julia wasn't sure how hard she would push back.
Thankfully, she didn't have a chance to find out as Jonathan came in and ran
interference of a type.
"It would be a great help if you could bring this up to Alex and Nick." the
butler said, getting a tray of soup and tea ready and waving Julia off "And
you let me know if you need anything else and I'll bring it right up."
Julia left the kitchen and passed those that were still downstairs with a
distracted smile and then made her way up to the third floor, hesitating at
the bedroom door a moment with the strange urge to knock which she
dismissed, and then entered.
She set the tray down on a table and looked at the items for a moment to
collect herself and then picked up the first aid kit before turning around.
