Chapter 82
Slapped in the face
Juliette, wearing a gray turtleneck sweater, slowly walked out from the corner of the staircase.

She wore a black straight wool skirt and black low–heeled boots. Although her outfit was simple, she exuded an air of lazy nobility.
Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders, making her look even more naturally beautiful.
Grayson walked beside her. The two were talking about something, and the atmosphere between them was very harmonious.
“Juliette, why are you here?” Evan immediately questioned in anger.
“Why can’t I be here?” Juliette stood on the stairs and looked down at him.
Evan’s eyes swept over Juliette and then to Grayson.
He sneered, “What? You married an actor, only to find out that his income isn’t enough to cover your expenses, so you come here to seduce Mr. Simon, hoping he’ll give you a dress for free, right?”
Come to think of it, Juliette hadn’t done anything to directly hurt Evan so far.
But Evan now hated Juliette more than ever.
Firstly, his love was broken because of Juliette.
Secondly, the Vaughn family was disgraced because of Juliette.
He wouldn’t think that it was because of Bianca’s misconduct and the bad things the Vaughn family had done that the downfall on the day of the wedding occurred.
He would only blame Juliette, who had exposed the truth.
So he couldn’t wait to step on Juliette into the mud, watch her climb up, and step on her a few more times until she was dying. Only then could he be slightly relieved.
“Mind your language, Mr. Vaughn!” Grayson, who had always been cold and aloof, was now filled with anger. “Didn’t you want Inferno? How ridiculous. I wanted to give this dress to Juliette, but she refused. What you said is truly disgusting!”
Bianca was shocked! I love the Inferno dress so much. But Juliette refused! Why?”
Evan said, “You gave that top–design d
to her? An actor’s wife? Is she worthy?”
As soon as the voice fell, Juliette hit Evan’s mouth with a hanger in her hand.
The hanger fell to the ground, Evan’s mouth was swollen, and blood was flowing out.
“This is the first time I’ve heard you insult my husband. If you do it again, I will knock your teeth out,” she said.
Juliette’s eyes were cold. She stood on the stairs with an aloof demeanor.
For Evan and the others, actors were dishonored and commodities, whom they could desecrate as they pleased.

Chapter 82
For wealthy families, actors were really not presentable.
However, she would never allow anyone to humiliate her husband, the father of her child.
“He is just an actor today, but tomorrow he will be someone out of your league,” Juliette said in a deep voice.
Juliette, you must be out of your mind to marry such a man. Isn’t he just good–looking? You are too stupid to choose him over the Montgomery family!”
Evan’s lips were swollen and bleeding.
His speech was slurred.
Juliette sneered, “He’s not from a wealthy and powerful family, but one day, I’ll make him one by marrying
Mason inherited their father’s company, but he was not very competent.
Evan was even less capable than Mason.

Although the Vaughn family still held a prominent position in the entertainment industry, they had already begun to crumble from within.
Their failure was only a matter of time.
“That’s hilarious! You think you can do it?”
Evan clutched his stomach and roared with laughter, but the pain forced him to stop.
At this moment, Bianca tugged at his arm. “Evan, let’s go home. Juliette is here. She won’t let me buy Inferno. Besides, I never planned to ask you to buy it for me. I know I made you sad. I’m not worthy.”
At this moment, Juliette glanced at Grayson.
Grayson said, “It’s not that Juliette wouldn’t let me sell the dress to you, but the price of this dress has already reached 35 million. Of course, if Mr. Vaughn can offer a price higher than this, he can certainly buy it.”
35 million?‘ Evan’s eyes widened.
The Vaughn family could afford it, but it was unbelievable that a dress could be sold for 35 million.
It wasn’t some kind of antique from a bygone dynasty.
“Grayson, even without this dress, I will definitely stand out in the competition. It’s okay. We can just choose another dress.”

Bianca spoke softly, but her eyes were filled with regret.
Grayson had indeed hated Bianca, but that was because he loved her.
Now when he heard her say that, he felt sorry for her.
Now that Bianca’s reputation was ruined, the perfume competition was her only way out.
She had to make a comeback that day, and a dazzling dress was very important.
“To be honest, the design of this dress is my favorite. It will be the treasure of my shop, and I don’t want to sell it, Grayson said.

Grayson was speechless.
So the price was not negotiable.
It had to be over 35 million.
Evan never hesitated when it came to spending money.
But even for him, 35 million was a lot for a single dress.
“If you are willing, you could rent it. It’s 4 million dollars for a three–day rental. Miss Vaughn is a fragrance prodigy, and if she wins the competition, she can purchase the dress by paying the remaining 31 million, Grayson said.
Evan’s eyes lit up at this.
As long as Bianca won the competition, their fragrance company would be rolling in profits, and buying the dress wouldn’t seem so extravagant.
Grayson added, “However, any damage will incur a tenfold compensation.”
Evan smiled.
In ten days, he was certain that Bianca would win the fragrance competition.
By then, they could buy the dress, and any damage would be their concern.
“That’s settled then, Evan said.
Grayson immediately called a staff member to sign a rental contract with Evan.
“This dress is very important to Bianca. Mr. Simon, I hope you won’t do the same thing as last time, saying you wouldn’t sell it when we needed it. Evan couldn’t help but sneer.
“Of course, I won’t. You can pick up the dress five days in advance,” Grayson said lightly.
Before leaving. Evan mocked Bianca again, I’m waiting for you to become a wealthy socialite with your actor–husband.”
He got into the car, and Bianca got in too. Neither of them spoke.
After a long time, Evan said, “Why didn’t you come to me?”
“You are extremely disappointed in me. How could I come to you?”
Evan stopped the car, pulled her over, and kissed her hard,
Juliette watched Bianca and Patrick leave, a smile flashing across her eyes, ‘Well, they are all in my game.
Suddenly, she received a call from Stuart.
Stuart’s voice, almost out of breath, came from the phone.
Juliette, come to my company now. Louis is in great danger!”
