Chapter 107
“The Harrison family wants you. If I were to take your place, would they agree? Logan said
Patrick just drank his coffee and didn’t say anything.
Logan said, “If you inherit Clarke Group in the future and marry the Harrison family’s daughter, it will be a powerful alliance between the two families.”
Patrick continued drinking his coffee.
“What if the person in danger the night before yesterday was your current wife and not Stuart Could you still calmly reject my suggestion?”
Patrick stopped drinking his coffee and looked at Patrick, but still did not speak
Logan stood up. “The Clarke family needs you, Patrick. We hope you come home soon Grandpa and Grandma miss you very much, and they value you very much.”
Logan was not usually talkative.
Today, in order to persuade Patrick, he had said enough, more than he had said in the past six months.
So, after he finished speaking, he decided not to waste any more words and turned to leave.
Downstairs, after Harmony arrived, she pulled Juliette aside to show her latest designs. As they were looking at them, Harmony suddenly got an idea and went to the side to modify the designs, no longer talking to Juliette.
Juliette glanced at her helplessly and took out her laptop to check the latest developments of the Montgomery family and the Vaughn family.
Vaughn Pictures continued to operate as usual.
The perfume company, on the other hand, was struggling.
Previously, they had relied on Bianca to make a profit, and now they were also in jeopardy because of Bianca.
However, the Montgomery family…
Juliette frowned slightly as she read on. The Montgomery family had actually started to enter the entertainment industry.
Previously, when Finn wanted to marry her, he had the intention of entering the entertainment industry, but she hadn’t seen any movement from the Montgomery family after their marriage failed.
It was Christmas these days, and everyone was taking a vacation, but news of the Montgomery family entering the entertainment industry had emerged.
The content of the project was also revealed.
This project seemed like a losing proposition.
Of course, Juliette was certain that this project was definitely not profitable.
It didn’t seem like Finn’s style.

‘So what is Finn up to?‘ Juliette’s fingers tapped lightly on the computer panel, making a soft clicking sound.
No matter what Finn was up to, she put Finn on the hook for what Stuart had suffered.
Thinking of this, she noticed that there were eyes on her. She looked up and met Logan’s gaze.

Logan walked toward her step by step, stood in front of her, and said, “You have brought a lot of danger to Patrick. This time Stuart was in danger because of you. Do you admit it?”
Juliette pursed her lips and was about to speak, but Logan didn’t give her a chance.
“Whether you admit it or not, what I said is true. Miss Vaughn, you are smart. You should know it. Of course, I don’t mean to blame you. I just want to ask you one thing.”
Logan said, “If Patrick wants to leave, I hope you can let him go and don’t pester him.”
After he finished speaking, he called to Harmony and walked out the door.
Harmony immediately packed up her things. “Juliette, I’ll see you next time, bye.”
She obviously didn’t hear what Logan had just said to Juliette.
After greeting Juliette, Harmony ran out, following Logan.
Juliette sat in front of the large French window. There was no sun today, and the sky was gloomy. Sitting here, she could see the siblings get into the car one after another and the car slowly drive away.
Logan really seemed like a gentle person.
Even when he said that to her, his tone was very gentle.
It was like he was just explaining something to her, not ordering her to do something.
“What did he just say to you?”
Juliette was startled when she suddenly heard Patrick’s voice. She didn’t notice when he had come to her side at all.
Juliette didn’t answer but asked, “Logan is the eldest heir of the wealthy Clarke family, but he cares about you very much. What is your relationship with him?”
Patrick frowned and said, “If I say we are not related, will you believe me?”
As long as he didn’t return to the Clark family, they were not related.
“You want me to believe that?”
Patrick looked into her eyes, and then there was a long silence.
After the silence, Patrick glanced out the window and said, “It’s getting late. I’m going to the hospital to see how Stuart is doing. I’ll have to trouble you looking after Louis.”
Juliette listened to his choice of words.
From the time Stuart had his accident until now, he had been exceptionally polite and courteous in his words, as if he felt he was causing her trouble.

Chapter 107
It turned out that it wasn’t just her who couldn’t think of him as her husband from the bottom of her heart.
Patrick couldn’t really think of her as his wife either.
How else could there be such a fear of troubling her in a truly intimate relationship?

Juliette suddenly stood up, walked to the French window, and stood on tiptoe. She put her arms around Patrick’s neck and kissed him on the lips.
She noticed Patrick’s body trembling as if he was shocked.
“Why the look? Do you think I’ll leave you because Stuart’s in danger? Patrick, didn’t we face danger together that night? We were in sync then. Neither of us backed down. Even if we weren’t intimate, at least we were comrades in arms for a night, right?”
Juliette had barely finished speaking when Patrick’s hands clasped her slender waist, and a powerful kiss landed on her.
It was like a violent storm, trying to engulf and drown her.
This kiss was crazy.
Besides sweetness, Juliette also felt bitterness and a hint of coldness.
Finally, Patrick buried his head in the crook of her neck, his body seemingly trembling slightly.
“I was just worried you were scared.”
“Afraid of what? Afraid of danger?” Juliette asked softly, her heart filled with bitterness.
Those dangers were brought to Stuart by her. Logan was right about it. She couldn’t deny it.
Since she couldn’t deny it, how could she be afraid?
She had no right to be afraid.
On the contrary, she had a responsibility and obligation to take revenge, to give Stuart justice. Stuart was too innocent. He was just Patrick’s cousin.
“Afraid of the blood and the drug that almost entered his body.” Patrick’s voice was extremely hoarse.
No one knew that when he saw Stuart lying in a pool of blood, his heart was trembling.
He’s seen a lot of people die, including his mother. Stuart, Louis, and Constance were his last relatives in this world.
Stuart’s experience made him feel fear that Stuart would leave completely and never wake up again.
Patrick was too afraid to show it.
It was as if once it was shown, the dreaded thing would really happen.
Thinking of this, Patrick tightened his arms, almost embedding Juliette into his body.
