After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas)

Wilfried sat on the sofa, eyes closed, saying nothing.

Gavin glanced at Judith, his stepmother, who had always been cautious in the Cooper family. She began to speak, "It's just that—" "Silence!" Wilfried's voice cut through the tension, making the atmosphere in the living room even more stifling.

Realizing something serious had happened, Gavin didn't press for more details and instead took a seat quietly on the sofa, waiting. Half an hour later, there was another sound at the door.

Gernard and Juliet entered one after the other.

The moment Gernard stepped inside, he noticed something was off and asked, "Dad, Gavin, what's going on?"

Juliet stood nervously behind him, her anxiety growing as a sense of foreboding washed over her.

Wilfried finally opened his eyes and said, "Since everyone's here, take a look at these," pointing to the documents on the coffee table.

Gavin, being the closest, picked them up and started reading. The further he got, the darker his expression became.

"Did you really do this?" he asked, looking at Juliet.

Juliet's face turned pale. "W-What? Gavin, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

Gernard moved closer, took the documents from Gavin, and after reading a few lines, his face darkened as well. He turned sharply towards Juliet. "Arson, arranging a kidnapping, drugging people-Juliet, you stayed in Cloudflare City and did all this?" At his words, Juliet immediately realized her actions had been exposed. But she couldn't admit it-if she did, everything would be over.

"What are you all talking about? There must be some misunderstanding! Gernard, you know me better than anyone. You've always cared about me do you really think I'm capable of something like this?" Juliet's tears started to fall as she played the victim. Gernard sighed. "If I hadn't overheard that phone call today, I might have believed you. But after hearing you scheme against Lucas, what else are you capable of?"

"Get down on your knees!" Wilfried's voice boomed suddenly, filled with fury and authority.

Juliet's legs gave out, and she collapsed to her knees, tears streaming down her face as she looked up at Wilfried. "Dad, please believe me, I didn't do any of this! Someone's framing me..."

Wilfried stood up and slowly walked over, his gaze cold as it rested on her tear streaked face. "Let's set those issues aside for now. There's something else I need to ask you."

Juliet's lips trembled, but she couldn't bring herself to speak.

Wilfried's expression darkened further. "Who are you really?!"

Juliet's face went ashen-did he even know about that?

"Dad, what do you mean by that?" Gernard asked, clearly confused.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Wilfried pointed to the coffee table. "There's a paternity test over there. Read it yourself."

Gernard's face shifted, and he quickly walked to the table, picking up the document. As he scanned it, his expression turned to disbelief.

"No biological relation..." The words hit him like a brick. "Juliet isn't my sister?"

Gavin frowned deeply. "If she's not our sister, then where is our real sister? When she was brought into the family, a paternity test was done. There was no mistake back then."

Juliet had been brought into the

Cooper family when she was ten. The family had been cautious and conducted a paternity test at the time, which confirmed a biological relationship. For years, no one had doubted it.

But now, they were being told there was no relation.

"Speak! Who are you, really?" Wilfried's cold gaze pierced through Juliet, but his hand trembled slightly, betraying the shock he felt.
