One of Irvin’s secretaries had called Julianne and told her he was about to transfer all his shares to me. Thus, the frantically rushed over to Mark’s firm.
She genuinely liked Irvin and wanted to be with him. That was why she had returned to Claudeville. That being said, her desire for money was far greater. She couldn’t allow him to be penniless.
Given everything she had done, she knew she had no chance of being Irvin. So, she couldn’t lose both him and his wealth.
Before Irvin could say anything, Julianne rushed forward and clung to his arm .
I braced myself for the nonsense she was about to spout.
“Irvin, the mastermind behind my kidnapping not long ago .. is Millie! She had teamed up with Travis Walker and orchestrated the whole thing! Her main goal was to harm me.
“Also, she’s aware of how much you care for me. So, she knew you would follow the kidnappers‘ demands and exchange her for me.
“That way, she could create a fake scenario where she would almost die. She knew you would then feel guilty over it, so she planned on using it to trick you into giving her all your shares! What’s more, Millie even…”
Julianne paused and had the gall to glare at me.
“She might have even plotted to kill you!” she accused. “Otherwise, why did Travis claim she had jumped off the cliff when she hadn’t? You wouldn’t have jumped after her if he hadn’t said that!
“Millie also never loved you from the start! She wouldn’t be so heartless toward you if she did! And even if she truly did, no matter how little, she wouldn’t be doing this! You can’t let her deceive you, Irvin! You can’t go through with this!” she shrilly yelled.
Again, Julianne had grown up with Irvin and always relied on his favor to live a life of wealth. On top of that, she knew just what to say to manipulate him because she understood him well.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to turn him against me with just a fake video. And he wouldn’t have fallen for her false statement about how I was only with him to make her miserable, either.
It was also why her lies about how our love was a scheme and how I maliciously intended to hurt Julianne were so successful. Irvin hadn’t even bothered to confront me about them.
It was all thanks to her deep understanding of his psyche that she was able to successfully sow doubt in our relationship every time. And just like before, she was targeting Irvin’s deep sense of distrust this time too.
He had a deep–seated fear that people were deceitful and calculative. Thus, Julianne’s words were intentionally chosen to make him suspect I was tricking him. She wanted to make Irvin believe I had never loved him so he wouldn’t transfer his shares to me.
I raised an eyebrow at her. She really was bold enough to say anything.
I was an innocent victim in her recent kidnapping. Yet now Julianne was portraying me as the mastermind. Just went to show how absurd situations can get if people were audacious enough.
Did she really think she could pin this on me now that Travis was dead? Did she honestly believe she could escape suspicion of being this incident’s mastermind?.

Travis had accidentally died while escaping capture, and Julianne had been sexually assaulted during the incident. Hence , the police didn’t suspect she was the mastermind. They also didn’t find any evidence that pointed to her. However, that didn’t mean she could slander me on a whit
Glancing at Mark, he confirmed he had recorded everything So, I looked at Irvin with slight amusement.
I wondered if he would once again play the ever–trusting older brother who believed everything his younger sister said .
Julianne tightened her grip on Irvin’s arm when she saw me looking at him.
“Look, Irvin. Look at Millie’s eyes. There’s no love for you in them, not even a little! If she had truly loved you , she couldn’t possibly be so unfeeling toward you now regardless of what had happened ! ”
I had to acknowledge Julianne’s ability to grasp the key details.
It didn’t matter that I had forgotten him and my love for him, so I no longer loved him. It also didn’t matter that I wanted to divorce him after all the hurt he had caused me.
There was neither love nor hate in my gaze. It was completely devoid of emotion as I looked at him. And I wouldn’t be able to be this way now if I had truly loved him
