•Juliet POV•

“What?” Edward shouted from where he was sitting, dropping the phone onto the table. He walked over to me, eyes locked on the screen as I scrolled through the comments.

“Now I feel like punching that bastard,” Edward groaned. “What does he want? Why did he go to this length just to do this?”

I looked up from the phone screen, my voice low. “He wants to tarnish the reputation of Jace Perfume now, after trying to steal it.” I muttered, almost to myself. “Eric, what should we do about this?”

Eric shifted slightly in his seat and picked up the cup of coffee Mrs. Carl had placed on the table in front of him. “I’ll try to see if we can trace the location of those comments. Maybe close down the accounts.”

“That’s not bad,” Edward said, jaw clenched tight. “At least now we know what James is capable of.”

I stared at the tablet screen once more before picking it up and handing it over to Eric, who was already sipping his coffee.

“Do what you have to do,” I told him quietly.

    •Juliet POV•I rolled over on the bed and snuggled close to Edward, resting my head on his chest. Trying not to think about the situation at hand, I let the warmth of his body give me a welcoming comfort.The smell of an unfamiliar manly cologne prickled my pulse, making me sniff. I didn’t recognize this perfume from anywhere. I opened my eyes and lifted my head off Edward’s chest. He shifted on the bed and rolled to the other side.I stared at him. Something wasn’t right.The man next to me… wasn’t Edward. The muscular build, the broad chest, it wasn’t Edward’s.“Edward?” I muttered, looking confused. But he didn’t answer.I gently pulled myself away from him and was about to get off the bed when a strong hand grabbed my wrist.“Who are you calling Edward?” The familiar voice asked.I blinked in confusion. I remembered Edward lying beside me, patting my back, whispering that everything would be alright before I slept.“Who are you?” I asked softly, my voice trembling.The man turned,

    •Juliet POV•I walked down the hallway, wiping the tears off my cheek. I’d never been so confused in my life the way I was at that moment.“Juliet,” Edward called after me, rushing to keep up with my pace, but I was faster. I knew what he was going to say, that everything would be alright, but that would be wrong.I pushed open the door to my office and walked in. My knees buckled, and I dropped to the ground, crying. I just couldn’t hold back the pain in my chest anymore.“Juliet,” Edward mumbled softly as he rushed to meet me. He leaned close to me, his voice low and filled with sympathy. “Oh God, please don’t do this to yourself. Please, this is the time you have to be strong.”“Strong?” The word echoed in my head like a reminder, dragging up all those times I’d told myself to be strong. All those moments when I buried my pain and walked around pretending like I was fine with how my life was going. “How can I be strong right now, Edward? What have I ever done to deserve this? Why d

    •Juliet POV•I groaned, covering my face with my hand. “Jeez, what’s happening, Vera?” I lifted my hand and wiped my tears. “Why’s James doing all this to me? Who could it be that he’s using again against me?”Vera lowered her gaze and stepped closer to me. “I wish I had the answer to your questions, but even I’m confused. This is the height of everything. James must be insane.”I sniffled, dragging my fingers under my eyes, trying to hold myself together. I kept whispering to myself that I’d be strong… but inside, I felt the brokenness growing, spreading across my chest like cracked glass. I didn’t know how much longer I could hold it all in.Vera and I walked out of the production area and back into the elevator. She kept talking, venting her anger and how much she hated James, her words sharp with emotion. But I just stood there, quiet, lost in the first moment I met him.Maybe this was the danger I had felt from the beginning. Deep down, I knew something wasn’t right about him. Hi

    •Juliet POV•"Juliet, go ahead and check on the production team. I’ll review the camera footage,” Edward said as we walked down the hallway leading to the elevator. “If James had anything to do with this, there’s no way he did it without getting caught on camera.”Vera nodded. “That’s a good idea.”Edward reached over and gently grabbed my hand, halting me mid-step. I turned to look up at him, with tired eyes. “Promise me you’ll be okay?” he asked, his voice low and concerned.I took a deep breath, trying to keep myself together. “I’ll be fine. Go check the cameras.”He gave me a soft, reassuring smile, then turned and walked away.I stepped into the elevator with Vera on my left and Dora on my right. As the doors slid shut, I rested my hand on my head, trying to soothe the throbbing in my scalp. The hum of the elevator filled the silence until Vera suddenly spoke.“If the perfume is really that dangerous,” she said slowly, “then why didn’t you react to it? You sprayed it on my arm d

    •Juliet POV•She panted and paced around the kitchen, her hand on her head, eyes filled with tears."What’s the problem, Vera?" I asked, my voice trembling with worry. "Why aren't you telling me anything?"She stopped pacing and turned to face me, her chest rising and falling fast. “Eric called me this morning, and when I picked up, he said he’s been trying to reach you but you weren’t answering. There was urgency in his voice, it scared me.”My heart dropped as I stared at her. “What did he say?” I asked, stepping closer.“He told me to check the news and online reviews. I thought it was just about the sales or maybe another trending post… until I saw it.” Her voice broke. “Customers are leaving bad reviews about the new perfume. Juliet, they’re saying it caused rashes and burns on their skin. Some media houses are even calling it a deadly skin poisoning.”I froze and blinked in confusion. The strength in my legs slip away, but I forced myself forward.“No,” I whispered, shaking my h
