Juli stands in front of the door, stiff as board, while Greg stands on the other side, knocking relentlessly.
Juli whispers, "Harvey, what the hell do I do?"
"Go put on some clothes, and I'll answer the door." Juli had forgotten all about the fact she was wearing Harvey's shirt. It amazes her how quickly a night like the one she just had can be erased from her thoughts so quickly.
Juli walks off to the bedroom at the same time as Harvey walks to the door.
"Can I help you?"
Greg is taken aback; he wasn't expecting a man to answer the door. "Um, is this Julianne Monroe's apartment?"
"It is." Harvey is trying to not go postal on this guy.
"Is….she here?"
"Yes. Who are you?" He asks, as if he doesn't know.
"I'm Gregory, Julianne's boyfriend…um, ex boyfriend."
"Juli! Darling, you're ex-boyfriend's here." Harvey shouts.
Did he just call me darling? "Um, okay. Be right there."
Juli walks out and finds Harvey standing next to Greg. It's the first time she's noticed how completely different the two are. Harvey's tall and built with nice color to his skin whereas Greg is much shorter and lanky with pale skin.
"Greg. Why are you here? I told you I didn't want to see you."
"I just came to drop this off." Greg pulls out a letter from his sweater pocket and holds it out for Juli to take. Juli doesn't budge.
Harvey grabs the letter from Greg and walks over to Juli.
"Please Julianne, just read it." Greg walks out of the apartment.
Juli walks over to couch and sits down, "Read me the letter."
"Are you sure you want to know what it says?" Harvey walks over and stands in front of her.
"Yeah, it'll drive me crazy if I don't. Just please, read it to me?" Harvey unfolds the letter and begins to read it aloud.
"Dear Julianne, I am taking the chicken way out and writing this all down instead of saying it to your face. Let me just start this off by saying that I hope you're doing well. As for our last phone call, I don't know why I doubted that you'd have moved on. I hope you have and I hope he treats you right."
Harvey pauses to adds, "yeah, like he knew how to treat you? What a complete ass!"
Juli just rolls her eyes, "Continue Harvey."
"Hope he treats you right. On to the important thing, I'm getting married." Juli's eyes widen. "I'm marrying Amber." Harvey looks up from the paper, "Who is Amber?"
Juli's pretty sure she's forgotten how to breathe, she manages to get out the words, "Amber is my cousin."
Harvey sits next to her; Juli grabs the letter from his hands and looks for the spot where he stopped reading.
"We are getting married in a few months and we would like to invite you and your family. But given the circumstance, we don't know if it's appropriate. I am hoping we can put what happened behind us and move one with ourselves. We even encourage that you bring the new guy in your life. Nothing would make us happier than to have you and your family at our wedding. You guys mean a lot to us. I'm staying at the Tribeca Grand Hotel, room 201. Please, come see me. So we can talk. Sincerely, Greg."
"What are you going to do?"
"Doing what I can, getting in the shower and going to work." Harvey just stares at her.
Juli turns her body and faces Harvey. "Thank you for being here this morning, you obviously had no idea he'd show up here today, but still, thank you."
Harvey leans in and kisses Juli. "You're welcome. Go shower and I'll see you later at work."
Harvey is sitting at his desk staring out his window and tossing a baseball up into the air. He can't stop thinking about the information Gregory so cowardly put into a letter for Juli to read.
"Harvey, here are the Lankton briefs." Mike throws them down on Harvey's desk. Harvey hasn't budged from his spot.
"You okay man?" Harvey turns around and looks at Mike.
"Huh?"
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I just have a lot on my mind."
"What case is giving you trouble?"
"It's not a case, it's personal."
Mike doesn't ask any further. Harvey isn't too keen on giving out personal information. Harvey turns to his phone and says, "Hey Donna, clear my afternoon, would you? I have something I need to take care of. If anyone needs me, I will be at the Tribeca Grand Hotel."
Harvey stands up and buttons his suit jacket, "try not to burn the office down while I'm gone, Mike."
Harvey gets out his car and walks into the hotel and makes his way to the elevator. Once inside, his phone rings, it's Juli.
"Harvey, where are you? I didn't think you had appointments until later."
"Something came up; I'll have to call you back." Harvey slides his phone in the inside pocket of his suit jacket and proceeds down the hall to room, 201.
Harvey knocks on the door to Greg's Hotel room.
"Julianne send you here?"
"No, she doesn't know I came. Can I come in?" Harvey walks in and takes a seat on chair near the window.
"What do you want? I didn't catch your name."
"I'm Harvey, Harvey Specter. I came to ask you to leave Julianne alone. You've asked something incredibly impossible of her. Don't wait for answer, just go home."
"Harvey, with all due respect, I'm not leaving until I get an answer."
Harvey stands up, walks over and stands directly in front of Greg. "With no respect at all, if you don't leave her alone, I will see to it that you have a harassment suit filed against you."
"You're a lawyer too?"
"And a damn good one at that. You're starting to mess with someone that I've grown to care for, someone that you claim to have cared for. No self respecting man would ever do what you've done. You need to leave, now."
Greg just stands there, meeting Harvey's gaze.
"How could you cheat on her? How could cheat on her than marry the women you committed that act with? Then! Ask her to be there."
"Don't get all self-righteous with me."
"You knew Juli for years, I've known her for months, but it took me a minute to realize how incredible she is, why would you fuck her over?"
"Get out of my face; don't act like you know of anything that went on with her and me."
"I know enough." Harvey isn't backing away from Greg.
Greg shoves Harvey out of the way, "Did Juli ever mention to you how she was never home? How she was always spending her time with her nose in a book? What was I supposed to do? I never saw the women I loved."
Harvey slugs Greg in face. Greg weighs considerably less the Harvey, so his punch knocked him off his feet.
While standing over Greg, Harvey says, "Don't you DARE blame what happened on Juli. You fucked up, and you're the one with the issues. Leave her alone or more will happen to you than just a punch."
Harvey heads to the door, fixes his suit and looks back at Greg. Harvey smirks; leaving a man writhing in pain on the floor isn't such a bad way to spend his afternoon.
