CHAPTER 11
Juliet thought it was hopeless, John Wales won’t give her a chance."Thank you for your precious time, Mr. Wales," Juliet said softly, gathering her papers.Louis's quiet presence filled the space.She turned back, hardly daring to breathe."Miss Beaumont!" John's voice cracked with sudden urgency. "Please... please wait a moment."She paused at her steps, surprised by his changed tone."I believe I've been..." John cleared his throat, stealing a nervous glance at Louis. "Would you kindly let me have a look again? Please?""Mr. Wales?""Miss Beaumont, I must apologize for my... previous comment," he straightened his tie anxiously. "Your proposal deserves far more careful consideration.""But you just said—""I was hasty, extremely hasty," John cut in. "Looking at it again, your presentation is quite... quite exceptional.""I don't understand—""Please, Miss Beaumont, allow me to review your numbers once more," John leaned forward eagerly. "The market analysis you've provided is a

"You're still here?" he asked, surprised.Juliet smiled softly. "I was waiting for you. I wanted to thank you properly.""You don't need to thank me," Louis said, brushing it off with a wave of his hand. "I didn’t do anything special."Juliet shook her head, taking a step closer. "You have no idea. If it wasn’t for your help, John Wales would never have agreed to work with us. My family and I owe you a lot."Louis raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Dinner, then? Is that your way of saying thanks?""Exactly," she said with a playful smirk. "How about it?"Louis tilted his head, as if weighing his options. "Dinner sounds good. But only if you’re paying."Juliet laughed. "I think that’s only fair."They strolled down the street, the hum of the city around them. Juliet led him to a quaint little restaurant, tucked away from the main road.As they sat down, Juliet gestured for the waiter. "Let’s order first. What do you like?"Louis shrugged, glancing at the menu. "I’m easy. You pick.

Juliet finally picked up her phone. "Hello?""About time!" Vivian snapped. "I've been calling all day!""I'm sorry, Vivian. You know, I was working on a project proposal—""Yeah. Whatever. I have big news," Vivian cut her off. "Louis and I have divorced.""Oh no! What happened?""Don’t feel sorry for me, dear. Congratulate me! I finally got rid of a freakish leech.”"He's the most awful being I’ve ever met, that's what happened! Do you know what he did?" Vivian's voice grew louder."He was having emotional affairs! ”“And you know what? He even dared to require a million dollars every month for expenses!" Vivian complained whiled expressing her discoveries and grievances, as if she was a victim, not a cheater."Really? I had no idea..."Juliet couldn’t believe her ears. How could a man be so shameless?She immediately felt sorry for her childhood bestie."Of course you didn't. Nobody knew how horrible he was," Vivian replied sternly. “You know what’s more? His disgusting deeds ev

CHAPTER 14
Vivian was still at it, spreading more lies. Everything he had told Vivian was true.The cards were real, and the doll wasn’t stolen.As for demanding one million dollars every month for expenses, that was thoroughly slanderous and fabricated!Louis wanted to tell Juliet right away the truth, and that Vivian was the one who had cheated.She was the one destroying his reputation to hide her own sins.However, would Juliet believe him?"If I ever met a horrible man like that," Juliet declared, "I'd throw him straight in the garbage where he belongs!"Louis laughed silently at how crazy this all was. Here he sat, listening to someone wish him in the garbage, while thinking he was sitting in front of her."You're so quiet," Juliet noticed. "Doesn't it make you angry too?""Maybe..." Louis chose his words carefully, "maybe there's another side to this story?""Another side? No way! Vivian would never lie to me. We've been best friends forever!" Juliet shook her head. "Her ex-husband

CHAPTER 15
The purr of the luxury car's engine faded as Louis pulled up to the villa.Before his hand even reached for the doorbell, the door swung open. Victoria stood there, her face bright with a welcoming smile, clearly expecting someone else. "Vivian, you're home! Is Ben joining us for din—"Her expression soured instantly upon seeing Louis. "Oh. It's you.""Hello, Mom," Louis said politely.The word tasted bitter, a habit he now despised but continued out of mere formality.Victoria's eyes narrowed.Victoria's face twisted with contempt. "Don't you dare call me that!”“You're like a stray mutt trying to sneak back into a warm house after being kicked out."She said with disgust."I'm only here to collect my belongings," Louis explained calmly.Louis let the insult wash over him, determined not to rise to the bait. Breathe, he reminded himself. He wasn’t here for a fight.Victoria barked out a laugh. "Your belongings? What belongings? You're like a tick that's been living off my daugh
