Chapter 16 You Modify the Photo
Julianna held her breath, picked up the contract, and looked at it.
The agreement was very demanding. The clauses were simply unfair! If the Reece Group didn’t have any improvement, meeting the requirements in this agreement would be impossible!
“These terms are so unfair!”
“What is it? Are you getting cold feet?”
Julianna was irritated. “Edwin! Don’t get too far!
“How can you be so shameless?”
“Whatever you say.”
Edwin sat in the swivel chair while smoking. He looked indifferent. “If you don’t dare to sign it, step
away from the Reece Group!”
His arrogant expression made Julianna extremely angry. She never gave in to defeat!
Thought the agreement was very demanding, if she could meet the terms, Edwin would kiss the Reece Group goodbye forever.
“Fine. I’ll sign!”
Julianna signed her name on the contract and casually threw the papers to Edwin. “There.
Satisfied?”
The corners of Edwin’s lips curled into a sinister smile as he blew out the last smoke ring. “Yes.
We’ve made a deal. Let’s wait and see!”
He thought, indeed. Women are stupid!
They can’t stand being provoked at all. She takes the bait! People like her are bound to suffer losses!
“I hope you can meet the terms. Otherwise, leave Philadelphia forever!”
Julianna took a deep breath and looked coldly at Edwin. “If I meet the terms, get the hell out of the Reece Group!”
“Well, you’re good at boasting. I’ll be very patient to see your doomsday.”
After Edwin finished speaking, he arrogantly pressed the cigarette butt against the conference table and was about to leave.
When he walked past Julianna, he thought of the “nude photo” incident in the morning. He
somehow felt an urge, and he pursed his lips. “Don’t do such childish things again.
Hiyou modified the photo and made that part of me look small. Are you unsatisfied with my previous
performance in bed?
“Do you want to try again and see if I can satisfy you?”
His provocative and arrogant expression made Julianna tremble with anger, and she had no idea what he was talking about. “Edwin, what’s that supposed to mean?”
“Drop the act. Julianna, why do you always like to pretend to be innocent? If you dare to do it, you should at least have the courage to admit it. You’re disgusting!”
Julianna was so angry that she grabbed his tie. “If I dare to do something, of course, I have the courage to admit it! Explain your words! When the fuck did I pretend to be innocent?”
“Wasn’t you the one who modified the photo?” Edwin let her pull his tie, and he felt aroused somehow.
He took another step forward and pressed her against the conference table.
He suddenly realized that his body had always been missing her!
He ha Julianna’s guts. She was just so scheming. But when he faced her, he couldn’t suppress the restlessness deep down!
Julianna glanced at the nude photo on his phone and sneered, “Do you think I would waste my time on that?
“Also, do you really think it was me, given how lame the photo was modified?”
Edwin said coldly, “Who knows? What if you deliberately modified it so poorly?
“After all, you have a history. Isn’t setting people up your specialty?”
When Julianna heard his words, she was so furious that she became speechless.
For so many years, he had been acting as a victim and torturing her with no qualms!
In fact, he was the wicked one!
“I will tell you one last time. I have never set anyone up! And it wasn’t my intention … to sleep with you. Believe it or not, I was framed.”
Edwin leaned over the conference table and trapped her on it. “It doesn’t matter. Anyway, Kate and I are getting married!
“I have nothing to lose after sleeping with you for two years!”
“You bastard…” Julianna felt as if her heart was broken, and her entire body could not help but tremble slightly.
“I wanted to give you 80 million dollars allmony. Too bad. You turned it away. Well, just as well. I could use the money to pay for Kate’s diamond ring!”
Julianna’s unyielding and lofty attitude Irritated him.
The loftier she was, the more he wanted to smash her pride.
“Go away!” Julianna pushed Edwin away.
Grabbing her purse, she ran to the bathroom.
She was about to fall ill again.
Her body had been overwhelmed due to years of antidepressants. She would often inexplicably tremble, and in severe cases, she couldn’t even hold a glass.
Edwin’s lips curled into a victorious smile as he watched her flee.
Smashing her pride was the best way to deal with her, a scheming bitch!
Julianna was in the bathroom.
She opened her purse with trembling hands and took out the antidepressants. She swallowed a few pills together with the tap water.
All these years, she had relied on lots of pills and kept herself busy to forget everything.
Ten minutes passed.
Seeing that Julianna had yet to come out, Edwin twirled the ring on his pinky finger, becoming increasingly agitated.
He thought, the damn woman has been in the bathrooni for a long time. Did she die in there?
Edwin knocked on the door a few times, making a few loud bang noises.
“Don’t hide in there and cry! Aren’t you always so tough?”
Hearing his sarcasm, Julianna laughed.
“Yes, that’s right. I am the toughest! No one can hurt me. I’m the only one that can hurt myself!”
Julianna calmed herself down. Together with the pills kicking in, she gradually stabilized.
“Crack!”
Edwin pushed the door open in frustration,
“Mr. Keaton, why do you like breaking into the ladies’ room so much?” Julianna frowned slightly
and looked at him with disdain.
Edwin was extremely agitated by her disdainful expression, and his malicious eyes instantly burned with rage.
Sensing the change in his expression, Julianna was somehow intimidated, and her heart skipped a beat. Edwin was a very dangerous man. She shouldn’t be with him alone.
“Excuse me…” Julianna’s face was cold, and she wanted to leave.
However, Edwin didn’t give her the chance. He approached a few steps and blocked the door completely.
Julianna panicked. “What are you doing? Move!”
Edwin was like a beast that had gone out of control, forcing her to the sink!
Before she could react, her entire body was already in his embrace. Her jaw was firmly locked, and he kissed her fiercely.
He could not stand it anymore!
In these four years, even though he tried so hard not to think about her, he could not forget her whatsoever. He missed her every night, and he couldn’t sleep at all!
“Ah… Let go…”
