Her figure was not much different from Mariela’s, and her face was somewhat similar to Mariela’s.
Jaime had said at the beginning that he saw a glimpse of Juliette in Mariela when they first got together.
Juliette had also mentioned they looked very similar when she first met Mariela.
At that time, Juliette said these words to provoke Mariela and make Mariela understand she was just a substitute.
It was different now.

Juliette willingly became Mariela’s substitute, imitating her outfits, copying her makeup and hairstyle, and even wearing her favorite perfume. It had been proven that Jaime’s love for Mariela was not that strong. Men could separate their physical desires from love.
He repeatedly claimed he couldn’t live without Mariela, but after several temptations from Juliette, he gave in.
Although he was calling out another woman’s name, Juliette didn’t care.
As long as she could stay by Jaime’s side, it was nothing.

Gia called and sounded excited. “Ms. Logan, Jessie will be discharged tomorrow. I am going to the hospital to pick her up. Would you like to come along?”
“No, I can’t leave home recently.”
“What happened?”
Mariela stood in the garden, feeling bored and pulling on the leaves of evergreen plants. “There’s been some trouble at home, so I can’t leave home.”
Gia thought it was a private matter, so she didn’t ask further, “Alright then, I’ll go pick her up myself. Is there anything you want me to tell Jessie?”
Mariela replied softly, “Wish her a speedy recovery and happiness. Buy her a gift for me. I will transfer some money to you
Gia quickly refused, “No need. You’ve transferred me a lot of money. There is still a lot left.”
“Well, alright.”

In the evening, Mariela received a phone call from her father, Deandre.
“Marie, the day after tomorrow is Angel’s birthday, and it happens to be on Saturday. We have booked a hall at a hotel to celebrate Angel’s birthday. Remember to make time to come and have dinner with us.”
Mariela hesitated.
She promised Lennon that she would not go out for the next few days.
She wanted to attend her sister’s birthday party, but she couldn’t.
That lunatic Nikolas would do crazy things.
She could not risk her life.
“No, Dad, I will be on a business trip out of town on Saturday.”
Deandre was taken aback when Mariela refused, and he stood there in a daze.
