Chapter 195
Patrick staveslat Louis for quite a long time to express his confidence.
He didn’t explain why
His confidence succeeded in convincing Louis that Juliette would wake up in two days.
It was the next afternoon, and Juliette hadn’t woken up yet. There came the Vaughn family.
Mason came with his wife and children.
In the corridor of the hospital, Keegan blocked the way of the Vaughn family.
He informed Patrick of the unexpected visitors, given their relationship with Juliette.
Patrick pondered for a moment before he said, “I’ll meet them.”
* 24%
Keegan was stunned by this decision but found it reasonable after second thoughts. “He became foolish for Juliette, so why was I surprised by this decision?” he thought..
Keegan led the Vaughn family to an office where the doctor was absent.
In less than one month, the Vaughn couple aged a lot and became thinner. Their neat attire failed to conceal their dejection.
Patrick walked into the office.
Led by Mason, the entire family rose to their feet and bowed to Patrick humbly. There was no trace of their previous
arrogance.
Patrick said nothing as his eyes swept over the Vaughn family one by one. He then gracefully sat on the chair that Keegan had prepared for him.
After the door closed, the office became more cramped than before.
Sitting upright, Patrick towered over the Vaughn family like an oppressive mountain.
Patrick silently and coldly sat there, but his presence agitated the Vaughn family.
The Vaughn family any lost their pride and glory.
Mason rubbed his hands before he opened his mouth. “Mr. Clarke, it is said that Juliette was hospitalized and that Mr. Louis is taking care of her here. Is she… Is she in critical condition?”
“How well–informed!”
This answer couldn’t help the Vaughn family see through Patrick.
Mason mustered his courage and said, “We reflected on our past and are aware of our problem. We feel terribly sorry for Juliette.
“We care about her. That is why we got the news that she is sick here. We got up early to make preparations for this visit.” Speaking, Mason wiped the tears that welled up in his eyes.

“Mr. Clarke, we came to see Juliette. For one glance at Juliette, we will do whatever you tell us. She is my dear daughter. She is injured and in critical condition, and we, as her family, are worried sick.”
Speaking. Mason slipped off the sofa as if he was in agony
Patrick looked at Mason coldly, unmoved.
The people behind Mason were hesitant.
Should they follow suit?
However, Patrick didn’t get swayed by Mason’s tears at all.
Even so, Evan and his family still knelt beside Mason before Patrick’s gaze was shifted toward them
Finally, Patrick opened his mouth
“My wife was injured in search of the memory of her 18–year–old. I will show you mercy if you tell me what happened”
Mason shuddered with fear.
The dejected Polly turned pale instantly.
“She She fell sick when she was eighteen years old. That is why she forgot a lot of things… Because she was sick, she took one year off from school and deferred her college education for one year. Start your investigation if you don’t believe me.” Mason said.
Patrick’s gaze landed on Polly, and she immediately lowered her head to avoid eye contact.
That is it. What Mason said is true. She got sick when she was eighteen years old. Ask Daphne, Juliette’s best friend, for confirmation if you want. Daphne knows her sickness.
Oh Patrick stood up. “Keegan, please see our guests out.”
He felt it unnecessary to continue this boring meeting.
Right then, Evan sprang to his feet. “Mr. Clarke, we respect you as Juliette’s husband, but we are Juliette’s family. Can you make decisions on her behalf? She is one of us.
“She was seriously injur
nd is unconscious now. She is suffering, so she must long for family love”
Evan gaped with agitator because this was his last resort.
Juliette was the last hope for the Vaughn family. They would be doomed if they couldn’t see her this time.
“Juliette is suffering from pain. You are her husband, not her, so how do you know that she doesn’t want to see her parents for comfort at such a difficult time? Evan added.
He didn’t sound as confident as before because Patrick was gazing at him.
Patrick lifted his leg and gave Evan a kick
“Don’t talk to me i till you
know how to behave as a good brother.
Evan failed to the floor, and the sudden gush of blood from his mouth tainted the floor.

Chapter 195
Polly suddenly crawled to Patrick and looked up at him.
“You want to know what happened when Juliette was eighteen years old, don’t you? Fine, I will tell you. Let’s see if you have a strong heart
“You will spare us if I tell you the truth, won’t you?”
Mason pulled Polly hard, but she shook his hand off.
“What’s the big deal? We did nothing wrong, and Juliette had herself to blame. Since Mr. Clarke wants to know the truth, let’s tell him the true color of the woman under his protection.
Before Patrick. Polly became restrained and didn’t use the word like bitch.
Juliette got pregnant at eighteen years old and gave birth to a child at nineteen. Because her indecency would taint the reputation of the Vaughn family, we made her forget her blunder and sent her child away.”
Then, Polly defiantly gazed at Patrick.
Deep down, she wished that he would be hurt by the truth and then despise Juliette.
If her wish came true, Patrick wouldn’t help Juliette ruin the Vaughn family anymore.
However, Patrick’s expression remained cold.
Patrick didn’t get angered or saddened as Polly had imagined.
He slightly leaned over to Polly and looked her in the eyes. “So, how did she get pregnant, hmm?”
For a moment, Polly felt that Patrick could see the very depths of her soul, so her hair stood on end.
Instantly, she got a flash of what had happened five years ago.
It was horrifying for Polly to find that she had never forgotten that terrible past.
