Chapter 305 Eat With Stephen
The woman’s long hair was curled, and her smile was gentle.
Seeing that Yvette did not speak, she was not embarrassed and said, “I was very happy when I heard that you had escaped from death. I have been looking for a chance to treat you to a meal.”
When the woman spoke, she stood appropriately beside the man, revealing only half of her body and face, looking like Lance’s timid girlfriend.
As a woman, Yvette’s sixth sense was very strong.
This woman must like Lance.
In an instant, Yvette’s good opinion of him because of his decisiveness during the divorce vanished.
Huh! Scum!
He really had good luck with women. He was surrounded by women.
Yvette said indifferently, “I’m sorry, but you mistook me for someone else.”
Juliette wanted to say something else. However, the elevator made a tinkling sound and arrived at the designated floor.
Yvette directly walked out and did not even look at Lance.
There were only the embarrassed Juliette and Lance, whose face was cold, in the elevator.
Before Yvette reached the corner, her phone rang.
She picked it up and said in a sweet voice, “Stephen.”
She looked very much like she had received a call from her boyfriend..
Immediately, Lance’s face turned sullen.
When they were divorced, she promised that she would not hide from him. Now she did not avoid him, but she pretended not to know him.
She spared no effort to show that he was a stranger to her.
Juliette, who was at the side, observed Lance’s expression and knew that he was angry. As for where his anger came from…
She looked at the elevator door that was about to close. Her eyes darkened.
Juliette learned about Yvette’s return from Lance. However, that was all. Lance did not say anything else.
She turned to look at Lance and asked, “Did Yvette throw a tantrum at you?”
Lance’s attention was still focused on Yvette’s sexy dress, which set off her good figure. She looked pure and charming in it.
She really dared to wear it.
“No. She has lost her memory,” he told Juliette gloomily.
“Lost her memory?” Juliette was a little shocked. No wonder Yvette behaved like she didn’t know Juliette just now.
“I really didn’t expect it,” Juliette murmured.
In fact, when Juliette knew that Yvette had come back alive, Juliette was a little flustered.
Juliette had helped Lance for so long without regrets and asked her father for support during Lance’s most difficult time. She used all the resources of the Beckford family to take a big gamble.
The effect was very obvious, she had bet on the right person.
With Lance’s strength, even if he did not have the help of the Beckford family, as long as he wanted to, it would only be a matter of time before he rose again.
The help of the Beckford family was just icing on the cake.
However, the media reported the Beckford family’s wisdom as timely help and publicized it.
They made the Beckford family the benefactors of the young master of the Wolseley family.
The Beckford family had benefited from this and had the absolute right to choose from many of the new projects of the Wolseley Group.
Juliette’s decision brought the Beckford family to a higher position. The Beckford family was satisfied.
The only regret was that Juliette was not yet Lance’s wife. Before Yvette came back, this matter had already been discussed by Tanya and Juliette’s parents.
Only Lance opposed, yet Tanya would definitely not listen to him.
As his mother, it was impossible for her to watch her son go astray and have no descendants.
Therefore, Tanya took Juliette as her daughter–in–law and brought Juliette with her everywhere. And Tanya expressed that Juliette had not been married to Lance because the fortune teller said the right time had not come yet.
It was not a good sign that the time was four months ahead, yet Lance did not take it to heart.
At this moment, all his attention was on the woman just now.
If not for the fact that he had to meet an important guest tonight, he would have gone to her the moment he got off the plane. He didn’t expect to bump into her here.
In the car on the way back, he listened to Frankie report on Yvette’s life.
She ate with Stephen.
They ate three meals together a week.
After dinner, they even went to the park for a walk, looking like they were in a relationship.
Thinking about the intimate way she had called Stephen just now, Lance was filled with jealousy.
Seeing that the man’s attention was not on her, Juliette was very upset and began to talk about work.
“This time, with the help of Quinn Michael, I believe that we will definitely be able to get the contract.”
She had spent a whole month staying abroad to persuade Quinn so that the Wolseley family could gain a foothold in the new energy industry.
In the eyes of outsiders, Juliette did that purely for the Wolseley family, but it was not true.
The market for new energy was too big, and it was not something that the Beckford family could dominate. Yet as long as the Wolseley Group entered this industry, the Beckford family could get the biggest portion of it.
Juliette had already considered it in her heart.
Although this job was difficult, it could help her become Lance’s wife and gain benefits, so she was happy to do it.
Moreover, everyone would only think that she would definitely marry Lance. Otherwise, there was no need for her to work so hard for the Wolseley family.
However…
Juliette’s eyes darkened.
She didn’t expect that Yvette would come back from the dead after Juliette spent a month abroad.
But so what? Juliette had carefully schemed for five years. Her plan would not be disturbed b a dead person.
