Chapter 451
Juliette was stunned.
Mariela’s face darkened, and she looked coldly at Jaime.

Juliette glared at Mariela, “You’re here for Jaime? Mariela, you’ve been broken up for so long. Why are you still bothering him? Are you that desperate for a man?”
Mariela sneered, “You think everyone is like you, picking up trash and treating it like treasure?”
Jaime approached, and these words didn’t escape his ears.
Mariela called him trash, and he felt a little disappointed.
But it didn’t matter, he was used to it.
He knew what he had done to Mariela in the past, and the word “trash” was too light to describe him. He was very self–aware.
“Marie, it’s good that you’re okay.” Jaime walked up to Mariela, his expression soft, his eyes full of affection.
Hearing this, Mariela got angry. She suddenly stood up from the sofa and slapped him.
The loud slap was particularly noticeable in the lobby.
A few passersby looked over, and the receptionist at the Herman Group lobby also cast a gossip glance.
Jaime was good–looking and usually dressed well. The receptionist and some female employees in the group usually had some feelings about him, and seeing him being slapped, the receptionist was shocked.
If she wasn’t afraid of being fired, she really wanted to capture this surprising moment and show it to the employees upstairs. Their CEO was actually slapped by a woman, how surprising.
“Mariela, you’re crazy!” Juliette saw Jaime being slapped and was heartbroken. After reacting, she immediately roared.
Juliette pulled Jaime and asked with concern, “Jay, are you okay? Let me see your face.”
Jaime was slapped to the side. He was stunned for a moment. After reacting, he immediately brushed off Juliette’s hand and looked into Mariela’s eyes.
Jaime asked very hurt,“What’s wrong, Marie?”
Mariela’s voice was cold and sharp, exuding a chilling aura, “Did you call the police?”
Jaime replied, “Yes, knowing you were kidnapped, I was very worried about you, afraid something would happen to you.”
Mariela’s face was angry, and she coldly questioned, “How did you know I was kidnapped by Nikolas? Did Lauryn tell you?”
