In the high-end ward.
The door had just been pushed open when the man looked over with his deep eyes, as if he was expecting sothing.
When he saw who it was, his eyes instantly dimd.
"Lance, what happened to you?"
Juliette walked to the bed with a worried expression, her eyes full of concern.
"How did you get in?"
Lance leaned against the headboard with a cold face. His entire person exuded a cold aura that would not allow strangers to approach.
He watched the door, but it turned out that Frankie was not there.
Juliette’s expression changed.
Before Juliette could say anything, Lance asked again, "How did you know I was here?"
Lance looked at her suspiciously, as if she was a thief.
Juliette’s heart skipped a beat.
She explained, "Lance, you forgot that my father is here too. When I saw Frankie downstairs just now, I guessed that sothing had happened to you and ca over."
Lance did not speak, and Juliette did not feel embarrassed. Instead, she took the initiative to sit by the bed.
"Lance, how did you faint? Did sothing happen?"
As she spoke, she even reached out her hand, wanting to touch Lance’s forehead.
Lance’s handso brows instantly furrowed, and he imdiately moved sideways, avoiding Juliette’s hand like he was avoiding a plague.
Juliette’s expression froze, and her eyes instantly beca watery.
She said with a great grievance, "Lance, I just want to ... care about you."
There was no warmth in Lance’s dark eyes. He sneered, "Juliette, aren’t you tired of pretending for so long?"
"Lance, what are you talking about? Why can’t I understand it?" Juliette’s face was pale.
"Juliette, I made it clear before that you made a statent to clarify the relationship between us. Other than that, there is no need for us to et or contact each other."
Lance’s expression was cold as he continued, "Don’t try to fool with your previous hypocritical words and actions, understand?"
Juliette’s face was pale and distressed as she argued, "Lance, why am I fooling you? I am really just concerned..."
Lance didn’t even look at Juliette as he coldly said, "No need. You can go now."
Lance’s ruthlessness made Juliette clench her fists, as if she was enduring it.
She said, "Lance, is it because of Yvette that you are so alienated from ? But do you know that she doesn’t like you at all? She doesn’t even care about your life..."
If Yvette really cared about him, how could she leave so coldly?
Juliette didn’t expect Lance to have an egg on her face for a heartless woman.
"Did Yvette just co?" Lance suddenly asked.
Juliette was stunned for a mont, and she only shook her head after a long ti. "No, I didn’t see her."
Lance looked at her guilty expression and said flatly, "Juliette, do you think that you are very smart?"
"Ah?"
Juliette raised her eyes and saw Lance’s gaze fall on her face.
This kind of attention had never been seen before.
However, Juliette did not feel happy. Instead, she felt that Lance’s dark and deep eyes seed to want to expose her.
It made her feel inexplicably flustered.
Lance’s face was cold, and his thin lips moved cruelly.
"Juliette, the last ti you claid to be my fiancée in front of Yvette, I haven’t dealt with you yet. You’d better watch your mouth and stop talking nonsense. Otherwise, you will burn yourself and suffer a backlash on yourself. You will definitely regret it!"
In an instant, Juliette’s face lost all color.
Her eyes were filled with tears. She said in disbelief, "Lance, are you threatening ..."
After five years of companionship, Juliette had the illusion that no one else could get close to Lance except her.
In fact, in these five years, she had accompanied Tanya more.
Lance’s heart had always been cold and closed.
It did not open to anyone.
However, Juliette could not see clearly and only felt that she was different from others.
She thought that the reason why Lance treated her like this was all because of that slut Yvette.
The slightest bit of humanity could be heard in Lance’s voice.
"This is not a threat. One more ti, I will make these words beco reality."
In an instant, Juliette’s face turned green.
She had just clearly felt the murderous intent in the man’s words.
Her eyes were wet with tears as she said in an extrely sorrowful tone, "Lance, it is because I like you. No matter what I say, it is wrong..."
Lance coldly interrupted, "It’s not wrong to like a person. The fault lies in your thods and sches. You are disgusting."
In a split second, Juliette’s entire body was shaking.
The man she had loved for countless years actually said that she was disgusting.
He actually felt that she was disgusting.
Juliette said in a trembling voice, "Lance, the Beckford family has always insisted on choosing you, never..."
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Frankie ca in.
"Send Ms. Beckford out and set up a security guard at the door. Don’t let anyone in," Lance ordered coldly.
Lance’s cold-blooded words were like a poisonous palm that ruthlessly slapped Juliette.
She felt the skin on her face split open, and it was burning.
Just as she was about to say sothing, Frankie made a gesture and said without emotion, "Ms. Beckford, please."
Juliette looked at Lance’s handso face, and there was infatuation and resentnt in her eyes.
In the end, she said in a low voice, "Lance, everything I did was because I liked you..."
She thought, one day, you will regret what you did to !
She left the ward.
Juliette’s pitiful look was replaced by a gloomy face.
Suddenly, she laughed crazily.
She shouted inwardly, "No one could get a man she can’t get!"
In the ward.
Lance ordered, "Check if Yvette has been here just now."
Frankie only felt that Lance was deceiving himself.
How could Yvette co here?
"Pay attention to Juliette’s every move recently, including the eting with my mother, and report it to ," Lance said.
He didn’t know if it was his illusion, but because of Juliette’s company, Tanya’s condition seed to be worse.
Lance’s eyes were cold and ruthless.
It was best if it was just his illusion...
...
Stephen waited at the elevator entrance.
Seeing Yvette co out with a dazed expression, Stephen asked with concern, "What’s wrong?"
Yvette recovered and shook her head. "I am fine."
In fact, she had been thinking about the illegitimate son of the Wolseley family.
But on second thought, she thought that she should not need to worry about Lance.
How could a genius who created many comrcial miracles at such a young age be defeated by an illegitimate child so easily?
Yvette thought that she must think too much.
At this ti, the phone rang.
Yvette picked it up. She said, "I’ll go over now."
Today was the day when she was ready to hold a press conference.
She was almost late because of this incident.
Stephen asked, "Where are you going? I’ll send you off."
Yvette saw that it was late, so she sat in Stephen’s car.
They arrived at the hotel where the press conference was held.
Stephen was worried about Yvette, so he followed her to the press conference.
Yvette and Stephen walked in side by side.
There was a cold gaze behind them.
It was only when the two entered that the person walked out from the hidden flower bed.
He stared fixedly at Yvette’s figure, his gaze exceptionally sinister.
