Chapter 547: Chapter 547 Have You Repented?

Looking indifferent, Lance didn’t answer her.

Juliette was extremely flustered but still comforted herself that it was not a big deal and would not bother her so much.

She had already told the public that they were going to get married, so Lance could do nothing but accept it.

She smiled and said, "Lance, do you think what happened just now was so disappointing? That’s why you changed the location of the banquet, right? It doesn’t matter. Do I need to change for the banquet now?"

"No need," Lance said expressionlessly.

Juliette’s expression froze but she still smiled cautiously, "Lance, there were too many people just now, so I didn’t have time to explain to you. In fact, they ... forced me to send out the invitation!"

She covered the corners of her eyes with her hands as if she was close to tears and observed Lance’s reaction.

She blamed and cursed Charlie many times in her mind.

It turned out that Charlie was not even considered an illegitimate son and had nothing to do with the Wolseley family.

That day, he boasted shamelessly that he was Colton’s only child.

Juliette was also muddleheaded to believe that Lance was adopted.

Now, it seemed that Colton and Charlie didn’t bear the same character as other members of the Wolseley family.

The other members of the Wolseley family, from top to bottom, were all righteous, a sharp contrast to the viciousness of Colton and Charlie.

Juliette scolded herself for being so stupid, but she also felt lucky for not going too far.

"Lance..."

Seeing that Lance did not respond, Juliette said sweetly, "Charlie found me and told me that he wanted to announce that you were not a member of the Wolseley family. He threatened me to give him the invitation. I was afraid that he would tarnish your reputation, so I had no choice but to give it to him."

Juliette’s explanation was full of loopholes, but she could not offer a better excuse now.

Undoubtedly, if Lance wanted to save his own life, his life was still in Juliette’s hands.

Therefore, Juliette made up excuses as a way out for him.

Seeing Lance’s cold expression, Juliette added, "I didn’t know that Charlie had such thoughts. If I had known that they were here to make trouble, I would never have agreed to give them the invitation."

As soon as she started to act, she couldn’t stop it at all.

Juliette looked sad and said with grievance, "You must believe me. Since we are husband and wife, our lives are bonded as one and will influence each other accordingly. I know it clearly."

"No, we are not," Lance finally spoke.

However, whatever he started to talk about, it was something that Juliette did not want to hear.

His cold expression coupled with his indifferent tone made him especially heartless and aloof.

Juliette’s expression changed, and she restrained her emotion and said, "But everyone in New York knows that we are married!"

"Juliette."

Lance called her name solemnly and added, "That’s because I want them to know."

"Why?" asked Juliette.

She wanted to know why Lance informed others that they were married but denied that they were husband and wife.

She had been studying Lance since childhood. Over these years, she felt that she had known Lance thoroughly.

But now, she was more and more confused about Lance.

It seemed that Lance never showed himself authentically in front of her.

Lance didn’t answer Juliette’s question but looked at her profoundly. "Juliette, have you ever repented for what you have done?"

Juliette’s expression changed again.

"What ... do you mean?" asked Juliette.

Looking sternly, Lance said softly, "Don’t you know what it means?"

"I... I really don’t know what you mean. I can swear that I never wanted to harm you. You also know my feelings. I love you so much," explained Juliette.

"So, you harm the person I love?" Lance interrupted her coldly.

Juliette did not want to harm him. The medicine that Lance was injected with was initially for Yvette.

Juliette indiscriminately framed anyone who got close to Lance.

Whether it was Emilie or Yazmin, all their sufferings were manipulated by Juliette.

She silently added fuel to the fire. Some people did bad things for her, and some took the blame for her.

However, she never revealed her identity as the mastermind to plot everything underground.

She had harmed countless people.

In addition to Emilie and Yazmin, the unborn child, her bodyguard Jovanny, and the innocent Tanya all fell victim to Juliette.

There were even some people who couldn’t figure out Juliette’s nature when they died.

Juliette was an expert at playing tricks.

Just by her eloquence and scheming, she could make the bad guys become worse and achieve what she wanted.

Yazmin was sexually assaulted by a wretched man, and it was also schemed by Juliette.

Juliette reinforced Yazmin’s hatred and anger so that Yazmin would unleash her revenge and make all effort to kill Yvette.

However, she did not expect Yazmin accidentally injured Lance, which was a big mistake in her plot.

Juliette’s body trembled unconsciously, but she still said firmly, "Lance, I didn’t do anything. Don’t wrong me. I am always a good citizen and obey the law."

Indeed, many things were done by Jovanny instead of her.

After Jovanny died, Juliette became more cautious. It was hard to find evidence that she had committed the crime.

Therefore, she was able to act boldly and confidently.

"Lance, don’t defame me, you have to show your evidence," said Juliette.

She covered her face and pretended to be sad. "Did that woman steal your heart? She said that she has cut off the relationship with you and doesn’t love you. Why are you still thinking of her?"

Lance looked extremely calm and he was not touched or saddened by Juliette’s words.

He felt that he had done the right thing.

His health had been deteriorating, so he didn’t want to drag down Yvette.

After a long silence, Lance said softly, "It’s good that she doesn’t love me."

When he said these words, his voice was so gentle that Juliette sensed a different personality from Lance.

That was what she had never experienced before.

Profound jealousy caused her face to twist painfully.

"Lance, why don’t you care about me? I’m willing to do anything for you, but you only care about her!" Juliette could not control herself but hysterically shouted.

She was clearly not only killing or harming others!

She thought, I have done many things for you, but why couldn’t I move you?

Juliette didn’t feel that she was wrong but only blamed Lance for treating her so coldly.

Lance said stiffly, "Juliette, you don’t love me. You only love yourself the most."
