His Wife by Contract, His Regret by Choice Chapter 31
Author's POVVivian's expression changed the moment she heard that Julie had discovered the altered formula.She had expected Julie to panic, she had expected her to struggle to explain herself, instead, Julie had calmly uncovered the problem and turned the entire situation around.Vivian clenched her fingers around her phone."How could she find out so quickly?" she muttered, her voice filled with irritation.Ethan stood across from her, looking far less composed."I told you this was too risky," he said quietly. "She checked the access records. If they investigate further, they'll find out everything."Vivian's eyes immediately turned cold."Everything? or are you afraid they'll find out what you did?"Ethan's face paled."I didn't change the formula myself but you helped me.""If you think you can simply walk away now, you're mistaken." Her words were soft, but the threat behind them was obvious.Ethan lowered his gaze."What do you want me to do?"Vivian leaned back."Nothing for

Author's POVThe next few days passed quietly on the surface. At least, that was what everyone in the Vance Group believed.Julie continued attending meetings, reviewing proposals, and personally checking the progress of the fragrance project. She never mentioned the strange discrepancy she had noticed in the report, nor did she question anyone about it.Instead, she quietly asked for additional copies of the relevant documents and instructed her assistant to organize the procurement records.She didn't explain why. Her assistant assumed she was simply being thorough.In reality, Julie had already begun to suspect that the discrepancy was not an accident.Someone had changed the numbers. The problem was that she didn't know why and she had no intention of accusing anyone without evidence.If someone wanted to set a trap for her, then she would simply let them finish setting it.Only then could she see who was standing behind it.Meanwhile, Ethan Collins had become increasingly confide

Author's POVEver since leaving the Vance residence, Vivian had been in an exceptionally foul mood.The memory of Julie standing before her, elegant and composed, replayed over and over in her mind. Every calm reply, every indifferent glance, and every effortless counterattack felt like a slap across her face.But none of it compared to Damian's reaction.She had known him for years, she knew every subtle change in his expression.The moment he saw Julie at the banquet, he had completely lost his composure.Even now, whenever Vivian closed her eyes, she could still picture the disbelief and longing that had appeared in Damian's eyes.It was an expression he had never shown her."No..." Vivian muttered to herself as she sat alone in her room. Her fingers slowly tightened around the armrest of the chair. "I won't let this continue."Jennifer had already disappeared once. She refused to let another woman with Jennifer's face take everything she had spent three years obtaining.The more s

Julie’s POVI stepped out of the meeting room and quietly rubbed my temples.The meeting had lasted far longer than I had expected. Between reviewing proposals, answering endless questions, and dealing with the department's barely concealed hostility, I hadn't realized how much time had passed.I hadn't eaten anything since early that morning. As I walked down the corridor, I suddenly felt a wave of dizziness wash over me.My vision blurred slightly.I frowned and instinctively reached for the handrail beside me, trying to steady myself.My blood sugar...I had been so focused on work that I had completely forgotten about lunch.I closed my eyes for a brief moment, hoping the dizziness would pass.Instead, my body swayed forward. Before I could lose my balance completely, a pair of steady hands caught me.The familiar touch made my entire body stiffen. Before I could even lift my head...I heard his voice."Julie." My heart skipped a beat.Damian.I immediately opened my eyes and our e

Julie's POV My first day at the company was far less welcoming than everyone had imagined. The moment I stepped into the project department, I could already feel countless pairs of eyes following me. Everyone greeted me politely enough. "Good morning, Miss Vance." "It's a pleasure to meet you." Their smiles were flawless, their manners were impeccable. Yet behind those polite expressions I could clearly sense the doubt. To them, I wasn't someone who had earned her position. I was simply the Vance family's wealthy heiress who had walked into the company through the front door while everyone else had spent years working their way up. No one said it outright but they didn't have to. Their eyes had already said enough. I wasn't offended. If our positions had been reversed, I probably would have questioned me too. Not long after, the head of the project department walked over with a thick proposal in his hands. Without much expression, he placed it on my desk. "Miss Vance," he

Damian's POVOn the drive back, silence filled the car. I leaned back against the seat, absentmindedly watching the city lights blur past the window.For some reason I couldn't stop thinking about that fragrance. It was the same faint scent I had smelled years ago.I still remembered that night clearly.Jennifer had fallen asleep on the living room couch while waiting for me to come home. By the time I returned, it was already well past midnight. The lights in the villa had all been turned off except for the small lamp beside the sofa. She had curled up there quietly, still waiting for me despite how late it had become.I hadn't woken her. Instead, I had quietly picked up the blanket beside the couch and gently covered her. The moment I leaned closer a delicate fragrance drifted into the air.It was light, clean, and comforting. That scent had stayed in my memory ever since. Even after all these years, I still remembered it.I slowly closed my eyes.Julie's explanation had been flawle
