Chapter 174
The screams, curses, and cries of the young girls rose and fell.
The scene was absolutely cruel.
Juliette saw the clothes being ripped off the girl and suddenly said, “Stop it!”

At this moment, “Shae“, as she was known in the group, held considerable sway. The men actually stopped and looked at her.
Luke looked at her leisurely.
Juliette suddenly understood that Luke was suspicious of her identity and deliberately put on this show for her to see.
He just wanted to see her reaction.
The real Shae would not care if these good girls were abused. On the contrary, she would sit aside and smoke while enjoying the spectacle.
But she, Juliette, had just stopped them.
Therefore, Luke was watching her now, and so were the men.
Juliette smiled coldly and looked at Luke fearlessly.
“What are you doing? Want to let these men have sex with those girls?”
Luke had an expression that seemed to say, “Isn’t it obvious?”
“Luke, do you know how much risk this will bring us?”
“Oh? What risk?” Luke looked all ears.
The more beautiful a woman is, the more scheming she is,” Juliette said, “these girls have all been carefully taught by their parents and have seen the world. They know exactly how beautiful they are and how tempting their young bodies are to
men.
“Once they have a relationship, there may be entanglements. Pillow talk is the easiest. Once these men are turned against us by them, the loss to us will be huge, and you can’t execute all these buddies, can you? Even if they are executed, it will be a huge loss for us.”
Juliette and Luke’s eyes met.
Juliette’s eyes were full of confidence. She believed that her analysis was correct and that her decision was correct. These men were not allowed to sleep with these girls.
She continued, “Maybe some of these girls are undercover agents. To trade one night for the loyalty of a man on your yacht is a good deal. Luke, do you want to take such a risk?”
Luke looked at her for a long time, beckoning the men back, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.
“Bianca, your analysis is good. I think we should take your advice and not let them have sex.”
‘Bianca? Juliette was disgusted.

Never would she have thought that one day, someone would call her Bianca. Wasn’t that the nickname the Vaughn family
used for Bianca?
She raised an eyebrow and said coldly, “That’s how it should be!”
Listening to her suggestions was all bullshit!
Luke was testing her.
However, having these people withdrawn meant that he already believed she was Shae.
“It’s late. Time for a drink. Are you coming?” Juliette asked, raising an eyebrow. She was seductive in the dim light.
“Not looking for men tonight?” Luke asked, “Want me to send you a few?”
Playing a wild woman was really unbearable for Juliette.
She casually played with her red nails. “When I was younger, I liked it when men took the initiative. Now that I’m aged, I prefer to take the lead. Men who are too proactive are boring. But being alone in bed is too lonely. I can’t sleep alone, so I might as well drink with you.”
The yacht drifted on the sea with no fixed location. The night wind was strong.

Juliette and Luke drank for half the night. Juliette realized Luke had a surprisingly high tolerance for alcohol and showed no signs of being drunk.
Juliette pretended to be drunk and started to talk nonsense.
“Luke, don’t blame me for stopping you just now. Don’t be angry with me. Wasn’t our eldest brother smitten by an eighteen- year–old girl? Kids these days are much smarter than we were back then.”
Luke stared intently at her.
Juliette raised her glass to drink, hiding her face and avoiding eye contact.
“Bianca, you never mention eldest brother. Why did you bring him up tonight?”
Luke’s voice was laced with coolness, as if it had been stained by the night wind.
Juliette looked at the moonlit night. “As we get older, we all reminisce about the past, don’t we? After eldest brother passed away, our lives became much more depressing. It’s been a long time since we’ve had a chance to get out.”
Juliette noticed that Luke drank three glasses of wine in a row after she finished speaking.
He had been drinking slowly this evening and never lost control of his emotions.
“It’s late!” Luke put his glass heavily on the table, stood up. “Time to go back to sleep.”
Juliette was left frozen.
She wanted to find out more information.
However, Luke had already turned and left, his steps steady. He was really not drunk at all.
If she hadn’t been drinking the same wine as Luke, she would have suspected that Luke was drinking water instead of wine.

Chapter 174
Juliette arranged for Thora to live in her room.
She said to Luke, “I like this girl. She is very similar to me.”
Luke thought she wanted to train Thora to be her successor, so he didn’t doubt or ask any further questions.
After she entered the room, she closed the door.

Thora immediately got up. “I’ve already checked. There’s no surveillance or listening devices. Julie… Shae, are there many other girls who were captured on the yacht?”
Juliette nodded, her face serious.
“These people are despicable! After one of their leaders died, they laid low for five years, and now they’re making a comeback! How many girls and families have they ruined?”
Thora had been through this kind of thing, so she gritted her teeth as she spoke.
“Juliette, how can we help those people? You’ll find a way to rescue them, right?”
Juliette didn’t say anything.
She didn’t know how she had managed to rescue Thora and the others five years ago. Maybe the police had already been lying in wait, which was why her younger self had succeeded.
Now, her purpose was to find out what had happened to her five years ago, but she also couldn’t bear to watch those girls get ruined like this.
“Quiet down for now. The more girls they bring, the happier we should act,” Juliette whispered.
Thora nodded; she knew.
After showering, the two of them lay down on the bed to sleep.
Juliette listened to the sound of the waves outside and tried to close her eyes. Darkness came, and she seemed to see herself shooting a gun. She even saw blood gushing out of the man.
But there were no more images.
She had already used drinking as an excuse to mention what happened five years ago, but Luke didn’t say much. What excuse could she use to bring up what happened five years ago again without arousing Luke’s suspicion? Suddenly, Juliette thought of something she had overlooked before.
That was when Luke said that Shae had been obsessed with a man five years ago. Could that man… be Patrick?
