After saying that, Juliette noticed Patrick stiffened.
Although they had their wedding and had sex, they were still quite strange to each other.
Juliette worried that her words would hurt Patrick’s self–esteem.

“I brought your clothes in. There are also skin care products you need.” Patrick held two bags, one containing clothes and the other cosmetics, and put them on the bench beside them.
“I’ll wait for you outside.” After saying that, he went out and came to the balcony.
Thinking about what Juliette said just now, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile. He thought, ‘How can this woman be so fragrant and soft? Just one look at her and I am already so turned on. I had to leave the bathroom. I don’t want to get her so worked up today that she won’t be willing to sleep with me anymore!
Patrick thought about the way she looked with her face flushed last night.
He couldn’t help but let out a low laugh.
He felt a satisfaction he had never felt before.
Back in the living room, he turned on the TV and wanted to watch some random news. Then, he saw that the Vaughn family was going to hold a press conference, and the countdown was only three minutes away.
Patrick glanced in the direction of the bathroom and turned down the TV volume, trying not to let the Vaughn family’s press conference affect Juliette.
He felt that she might have to wash her hair and would spend a long time in the bathroom.
Patrick was waiting for the press conference to begin.
Meanwhile, at the Montgomery residence, Finn was also waiting for the press conference.
Yesterday’s wedding caused the Montgomery Group’s stock to plummet. It hit the limit as soon as the market opened this morning.
The Montgomery family’s reputation had taken an unprecedented hit.
He had barely slept last night.
He even watched the entire live broadcast of Patrick and Juliette’s wedding. It was a grand event that fulfilled every woman’s wedding fantasy.
He saw Juliette’s extraordinary beauty, so captivating that he felt a surge of jealousy. That beauty was supposed to be his.
Besides jealousy, he felt hatred and an immense sense of injustice.
He even harbored murderous intent towards Patrick and Juliette.
Throughout the night, he replayed Juliette’s every action over the past month, from the auction to the slap she gave him to the kindergarten incident.
He was sure that Juliette had known about him and Bianca for a long time, and had deliberately dug a hole at the wedding to

Finn thought, “When did the get involved with Patrick Why would Patrick risk marrying her? Also, why were Lovell and Harmony at Patrick’s wedding? What is their relationship with Patrick?
Also, why were Lovell and Harmony Jian at Patrick’s wedding?
Patrick’s surname is Clarke… No, it can’t be, it’s probably just a coincidence. If Patrick is really a descendant of the Clarke family, I would have known.
And that child, Louis, also has the surname Clarke.
“What exactly is the relationship between them?
He immediately asked a detective to investigate these relationships in the middle of the night, but there were no results yet.
However, Patrick and Juliette humiliated him. Before he could kill them, he decided to add fuel to the fire of this press conference.
So, he gave Bianca a call and asked her about the content of the press conference.
Finally, he said, “Add these contents. Juliette thought she humiliated us, but let her know that she’s still too early to win this
game
Then, he told Bianca the content that needed to be added.
He was sitting at the computer in his study and waiting for the press conference to start at that moment.

The press conference was presided over by Mason and Evan. Barbara Vaughn, Polly, Bianca, and Isla did not come.
Mason’s opening remarks were, “I’m sorry to meet you all in this way. I believe you all know what happened yesterday, and the Vaughn family must clarify this matter. It has taken up public resources. I would like to apologize to everyone on behalf of the Vaughn family
He stood up and bowed deeply.
Then, he talked about how yesterday’s incident made him and his family suffer.
For example, Isla was too scared to go to school today. Polly fainted, and she was bedridden and unable to get up.
Mason explained, “If it weren’t absolutely necessary, there are some things we wouldn’t want to make public. But Juliette’s behavior yesterday was simply appalling. Even though she is my eldest daughter, I will have to do this.”
Many reporters came to the scene.
Mason then told the public that Juliette was a bad person by nature, and even if no one had done anything wrong to her, she would make her loved ones feel uneasy.
He continued, “To put it simply, Juliette has an anti–social personality. Do you think I’m deliberately saying this about her because the Vaughn family was humiliated yesterday? Not at all!
“Everyone knew yesterday that my wife was very unpleasant. It seemed like she was trying to embarrass Juliette, but she wasn’t! She loves Juliette very much, but she’s mentally ill, so her words are unpleasant. Juliette is the culprit who caused her mother’s mental illness.

“Juliette was just eighteen years old when she went out to fool around with men. Polly was heartbroken and advised her many times, but she didn’t listen.
“Polly knew that if she continued like this, her life would be ruined. So, when Juliette went out to fool around with men one time, Polly followed her, and the two quarreled. Juliette even ended up hitting Polly.
“I still remember that when Polly came home that night, she was covered in wounds and blood while crying incessantly, After that, my wife became mentally ill, and she only occasionally regained consciousness.
“That’s why Polly was so agitated to say those things yesterday. She was afraid that Juliette would go astray and ruin her life.”
Mason burst into tears and sat down to wipe his tears
Evan carried on, “Last night, everyone must have watched the wedding of Juliette and Patrick. Miss Clarke personally came to stop their marriage because Miss Clarke was actually Patrick’s ex–girlfriend.
“Juliette was the mistress in their relationship, and Miss Clarke couldn’t accept this. So she went to the scene to destroy the wedding.”
Hearing this, Patrick’s eyes were filled with shock and anger. He almost crushed the remote control in his hand. Suddenly, there was a “click” from the doorknob of the bathroom.
Patrick immediately restrained his surging emotions, held the remote control, and pressed the power button.
However, Patrick found that Juliette had not yet come out.
Juliette was indeed holding the doorknob, but she seemed to feel something in the pocket of her windbreaker, Soon, she took out a letter from inside. There was no signature on it, but there was indeed letter paper inside.
She thought, ‘Could it be that Patrick wrote it to me?
What secret couldn’t be said face to face?
This man is quite romantic.”
Juliette opened the letter.
Her expression was first confused, then as if covered in ice.
The letter was about Patrick’s bloody secret.
