Chapter 142
Juliette’s gaze swept from Evan’s face to the things he held in his hand.
She didn’t take them. Instead, she slowly straightened up and approached Evan.
Evan blinked, trying to hide the fear rising in his heart.

‘Damn it, Juliette is my younger sister who grew up with me. Why am I afraid of being looked at by her like this?‘ thought Evan.
Juliette snatched the things from his hand and threw them on the coffee table..
“You found out Louis is Patrick’s son. Tell me now, who is Louis’s biological mother?” said Juliette.
If they knew Louis’s biological mother was her, they would surely know what happened five years ago.
She wanted to know. She had to know!
Evan instinctively took a step back.
Just now, he felt Juliette was a demoness.
“How would I know who his biological mother is? Aren’t you his stepmother? Isn’t Patrick your husband? If you want to know, go and ask Patrick!”
Evan was a little anxious.
“When you married Patrick, you knew he had a child. Now you know, and you’re jealous of his biological mother?
“Juliette, it seems your marriage to Patrick isn’t happy either.
“So you have to save Louis today. If Louis dies, Patrick will never forgive you.”
The more Evan spoke, the more confident he became.
Juliette was jealous of Louis’s biological mother, which meant she cared about Patrick. Louis was Patrick’s son. Juliette would certainly save Louis for Patrick.
Juliette stared at him.
‘Since he already knows Louis is Patrick’s son, how could he not know who Louis’s biological mother is?‘ thought Juliette. Juliette continued to press, “Louis is Patrick’s son, did you guys find that out through investigation?”
“What else? Is it that hard for the Vaughn family to handle something like this?”
Juliette realized Even answered matter–of–factly without hesitation in his eyes, and his expression was very natural.
It was clear he didn’t know Juliette was Louis’s biological mother
“Mom and Dad told you Louis is Patrick’s son. It was found out through investigation? Why don’t you go ask them who Louis’s biological mother is? As long as you tell me the correct answer, I promise to do what’s on the contract.“

Evan felt Juliette’s brain was fried from jealousy.

He sneered, “Now, you’re not thinking about saving Louis. Instead, you’re thinking about finding out who Louis’s biological mother is. Are you crazy with jealousy?”
Juliette didn’t bother to respond to his mockery. She said directly, “This is my request. If you can do it, we’ll continue talking. If you can’t… suit yourselves.”
Now the Vaughn family needed her to do something. Naturally, she could negotiate terms as well.
Juliette continued, “Go and ask your parents, they know.”
Evan had a “Are you crazy?” look.
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll throw Louis into the sea to feed the fish if you negotiate terms with me?”
“As you said, I am only Louis’s stepmother. If he dies, I won’t have to raise someone else’s child. You have also removed an obstacle for me. How great is that? Patrick and I will go to the Vaughn family’s door to avenge. Patrick will thank me for accompanying him when he was in the most difficult time.”
Juliette laughed as she spoke.
Evan was stunned. He was overwhelmed by Juliette’s indifference, cruelty, and ruthlessness.
Because in his impression, Juliette was not that kind of person.
“We’re not dead yet. Juliette, if you don’t care about Louis’s life or death tonight and only want to achieve your goal, aren’t you afraid we will tell Patrick about your behavior? Let him know you put his child to death?” said Bianca, pushing the door open and walking in.
Juliette looked over and found Bianca had lost weight, and her complexion was not poor. It was obvious Bianca had had a hard time recently.
“Yes. If we tell Patrick about your inhumane actions, he’ll know his child died because you refused to save him,” Evan immediately echoed.
Juliette remained silent.
Bianca and Evan exchanged glances, both feeling they had Juliette under their control.
“The contract hasn’t been signed yet? It seems that you’re unwilling to repay 2.7 billion dollars, am I right? You took 2.7 billion dollars from the Vaughn family and another 2.7 billion dollars from the Montgomery family. You are something.”
“Since you know I’m something, how dare you threaten me with my child?” said Juliette.
Bianca said, “Of course, we will take back what belongs to our family. Your company, your 2.7 billion dollars all belong to the Vaughn family. No matter how difficult it is, we will take them back.”
Juliette leaned against the armrest of the sofa and applauded.
“Not bad. You have a sharp tongue and are good with words. You used your mouth to make Evan and Finn devoted to you, right said Juliette.
Evan’s face immediately changed.

He was born the heir of the Vaughn family, a noble identity.
He was always the center of attention wherever he went.
But being toyed with by Bianca was his dark history and the source of his anger.
Bianca also pursed her lips. Recently, Evan had been using various means to torture and humiliate her.
Although her body felt great pleasure, she felt angry in her heart. Why did Evan treat her like this?
She put all the blame on Juliette.
“Juliette, you are even better. Your stepson’s life is in danger, but you still remember to sow discord between me and my brother. Today, no matter what I say or do, it is for the sake of the Vaughn family. All of your actions are harming the interests of the Vaughn family.”
The anger on Evan’s face was temporarily shifted to Juliette.

Immediately afterward, Bianca called Evan out. She assured him she could persuade Juliette to agree to her request. Evan went out temporarily.
Juliette looked at Bianca leisurely, wanting to see what she was capable of.
Bianca picked up the contract, the inkpad, and other items. She handed them to Juliette.
“Juliette, aren’t you going to sign it? Louis is young. It’s easy for him to get scared alone in a room. You don’t want him to have a mental breakdown, do you?”
Juliette was not in a hurry. She snorted coldly.
“Since we’re talking about conditions, let’s put all the chips on the table. Your bargaining chip is Louis. Let me see him, and then we’ll talk.”
“That’s easy,” Bianca said. “The cruise ship has moved. You can not get off even after you see Louis Clarke.
“But Juliette, you’re not just taking 2.7 billion dollars from the Vaughn family. You’ve also damaged the reputation of the Vaughn family and caused serious financial losses. You need to compensate us for these losses.”
Juliette raised an eyebrow. “Oh? How should I compensate you?”
“Just give us three perfume formulas, Juliette. You’re the top perfumer in the Harrison family, a genius perfumer. I’m sure it won’t be difficult for you to come up with three perfume formulas, right?”
Juliette smiled. No wonder Bianca sent Evan away.
Three perfume formulas would not only bring Vaughn Perfumes back to life but also allow them to seize more of the perfume market.
The financial situation of Vaughn Perfumes needed the support of some powerful perfume formulas.
“Sure, no problem. It’s just three perfume formulas. It’s a piece of cake for me. I won’t be like you, struggling for five years. Your best perfume still can’t compare to my worst.”
Bianca’s face changed when she was touched on her sore spot

However, she was good at enduring and said, “Juliette, since you said so, please write down the formula.”
“Didn’t I tell you? Bring Louis to me, and I’ll write it down immediately after seeing him.”
Bianca smiled. “That’s not difficult. I’ll have someone bring him here right away.”

With their people all around, Juliette and Louis couldn’t escape. Letting them have a look from afar wouldn’t be a big problem.
However, her men went but didn’t return for a long time.
Bianca left the room and turned pale with shock after asking her subordinates.
