Chapter 331
Chapter 331 Ignored
Through the phone, Yvette could feel Juliette's arrogant tone.
She sounded like Yvette was a mistress.
At this moment, Yvette could not maintain her gentleness and wanted to hang up immediately.
Juliette was Lance's fiancée?
She didn't know that.
Then what did Lance mean when he pestered her with those words? Who did he treat her as?
What a jerk!
He was a scumbag.
Yvette calmly said, "I'm sorry. I didn't know that you were his fiancée. I will leave you two alone in the future."
Yvette didn't feel guilty and calmly apologized.
She had nothing to feel guilty about. If she had known this from the beginning, she would never have contacted Lance.
What was more, their interactions were forced by Lance.
It showed that no one in this world could be a better jerk than him.
"Ms. Thiel, there are some things that I don't need to tell you. You can just go online. Haven't you read the news reports about us?"
Juliette deliberately mentioned the news reports.
Some of the rumors on the Internet were almost cleared by Lance.
However, netizens would always dig deeper to find out about their imminent marriage.
With these reports, Juliette was not afraid that Lance would explain it to Yvette.
After all, explanations would only make things worse.
Moreover, she was not lying. It was only a matter of time before she and Lance got married.
She planned everything for so long, but Yvette ruined it.
She thought that Yazmin would make Yvette fall.
However, Yazmin fell first before she could take down Yvette.
Juliette had no choice but to expose herself and take the initiative to attack.
Juliette smiled.
"Three years ago, the news of the marriage between us spread online.
"In recent years, the Wolseley Group needed to keep a low profile, so they did not spread this matter, but everyone knew it.
"I don't think you are a barnacle. I will treat this as a misunderstanding. I hope that you will lie low in the future and learn self-respect and self-love to save yourself from embarrassment."
Juliette was like a mighty judge.
Although there was no nasty swearing, Juliette sounded like she was pointing at Yvette's face and insulting her.
"Ms. Beckford, since you were preparing for a marriage three years ago, does it mean that you thought of yourself as Lance's fiancée, right?" Yvette said coldly.
Juliette said proudly, "It is a fact. I didn't flatter myself."
"A fact? Then I will also tell you a fact..."
Yvette paused and said, "Ten days ago, the fiancé you mentioned was my legal husband, but you two have been together as lovers for three years. Thank you for your reminder, Ms. Beckford. I will pursue this matter."
Juliette was lost for words.
The smile on her face froze, and she lost her composure.
"What did you say?"
She had always thought that when Yvette "died", the two had divorced.
She didn't know when they got married again!
In the face of a wife who "died" five years ago...
Lance didn't cancel their relationship.
This was ridiculous and unbelievable!
Her sense of superiority seemed to collapse in an instant.
"The person who should have self-respect and self-love is you, right?
"Also, I didn't call you to snatch Lance from you as you thought. Don't worry about it because I'll never care about such a jerk like him."
Yvette sneered.
Lance was just a man of greed.
And she would let any other woman marry him!
Outside the door.
Isabel heard her mother's words.
She didn't understand many things, but she heard that Lance had a fiancée.
What?
Lance actually had a fiancée!
When Isabel attended Lance's engagement party, she asked Kamila and learned that a fiancée was a woman who would become a man's wife.
But the last time she asked Lance, he said that he did not have a fiancée and that the only person he liked was her mother.
Damn it! Lance lied to her!
Isabel picked up her pink cell phone and poked it randomly.
When Yvette came out and saw that Isabel was holding a small bag and waiting for her.
Yvette was a little embarrassed and explained to Isabel, "Isabel, can we go to the amusement park with Kamila today?"
"Of course, Mommy."
With a happy expression, Isabel said like an adult.
"Mommy, I don't want Daddy in the future. It's enough to have you."
She was disappointed in Lance!
She didn't expect that Lance was a big liar.
Because of her, Mommy got hurt.
Yvette found Isabel's sudden change strange, but she did not think too much about it. She just thought that kids just tended to be emotional.
The three packed up and went out. Just as they were about to get in the car, they saw Stephen coming over. He was holding a beautiful big gift box with the pattern of a princess on it in his hand.
"Mr. Parker!"
Isabel threw herself into Stephen's arms. In the big box was the latest toy that she mentioned to Stephen just a few days ago yet he bought it for her.
Stephen saw that Yvette and Isabel seemed to be going out, so he asked, "Are you going out?"
Isabel hugged the doll and happily answered, "Mr. Parker, we are going to the amusement park. Do you want to go with us?"
"Are you inviting me?" Stephen squatted down and asked gently.
"Yes, let's go together, Mr. Parker."
Stephen looked up at Yvette.
Ever since Stephen said that he wanted to date her, Yvette had not given him an answer.
Thus, Yvette felt a little awkward.
She said, "Isabel, Mr. Parker has other things to do."
"Is that so? That's fine, Mr. Parker."
In her heart, Stephen was the same as Marlon.
"Actually, I'm available." Stephen stood up and coughed.
Yvette was stunned.
"Can I join you?" Stephen asked.
He had been researching all these years, and it was the first time that he had taken the initiative to date a woman.
"Sure, but Isabel may be noisy. If you don't mind it..."
"Of course not. I like to be with Isabel."
This time, another person joined them.
Kamila wanted to fix Yvette up with Stephen, so she took the safer facilities with Isabel to leave them alone.
Yvette and Stephen watched them silently.
"That day..."
They spoke at the same time.
Stephen said in a gentle voice, "You go first."
"I'm sorry, Stephen. I said that we were dating that day because I wanted to anger Lance so I could get rid of him."
Yvette was a little ashamed. She continued, "Stephen, you are a good person, but I have always treated you like my big brother. I don't think I can be a good wife if you want one."
She had known Stephen for nearly three years, and she felt that he was like her big brother.
She was not likely to have feelings for him. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Moreover, after the incident with Lance, she felt that she should be cautious in the matter of getting Isabel a stepfather.
She needed to think about both personality and compatibility.
Stephen understood what Yvette meant, and he felt a little sad.
"I understand, but you can use me as your protection whenever you need it. You don't have to feel burdened."
"Stephen..."
Yvette felt even more guilty.
Stephen chuckled. "Yvette, I don't understand what love is. I just want to find a wife at the right age.
"Now that I think about it, it is unfair to you, so just pretend that I never said those words that day."
Yvette felt much better after Stephen said this.
If Stephen liked her, it would make her feel sorry for him.
Because she could not give him the response he wanted.
"Thank you, Stephen." Yvette smiled brightly.
Stephen also smiled. "In my heart, you are just like my sister. When Marlon is not around, you can come to me if you need anything. Don't treat me as an outsider."
"Okay, Stephen."
After opening solving the misunderstanding, they had a good time in the amusement park.
In front of a huge robot, Isabel clamored to take a photo.
Stephen carried Isabel on his shoulder and took a photo with the robot.
On the other side.
When Lance returned to his office, he saw Juliette and frowned.
"Why are you here?"
Juliette smiled. "I came to show you the project documents."
"Oh."
After Lance finished speaking, he didn't even look at Juliette as he started to process the documents on the table.
Juliette stood where she was and was ignored.
She felt aggrieved as she said, "Lance, I came to..."
Lance ignored her words and frowned again. "Why haven't you left yet?"
He asked her to leave...
This was humiliation.
Juliette almost couldn't take it anymore.
Since she was young, as the daughter of a rich family, she had never been disliked like this.
If she stayed any longer, she would only receive humiliation.
Juliette did not say a word and turned to leave.
Lance saw that his phone on the table was not in its original position and called out to Juliette.
"Wait, you messed with my phone?"
