Chapter 62.Â
Juliette choked up a bit, glanced at Armando almost imperceptibly, and lowered her eyes in grievance, “It’s nothing, it didn’t hurt…”Â
As she spoke, she walked carefully over to Armando and Jovana, lowered her head and said, “Mr. Dunbar, Ms. Atherton, I’m sorry, my mom has a fiery temper and is kind of careless. I’m apologizing to you for her. I’m sorry.”Â
That aggrieved tone made it sound like she was the one being bullied by her.Â
Jovana gave a cold tug at her lips.Â
She couldn’t help glancing at Armando. The man was staring at Juliette with deep eyes… all his heartache written on his face.Â
It was really funny. They had been in love for nine years, but he hadn’t even given her the most basic trust. Now he didn’t even favor her anymore… His lover cried, and he felt sorry for her?Â
Jovana’s eyes suddenly felt unbearably sore.Â
Took a deep breath.Â
She said in a hoarse voice, Get out, all of you…Â
But it was cut off by another cold voice.Â
“What’s the use of apologizing? Your mom slandered my wife without any proof and even hit her. I could totally sue her for intentional injury! She could’ve been kept at the police station for ten days or half aÂ
month!”Â
“And you,” Armando’s eyes were cold and fierce, his tone full of pressure, “didn’t you stir up a lot of this too? You’re no more innocent than she is!”Â
As soon as he finished speaking, the mood in the room dropped to freezing, and it was outrageous.Â
Juliette’s smug look disappeared right away, a chill ran up from her feet, and her legs started shaking.Â
I couldn’t believe Armando not only didn’t question Jovana about her relationship with Harland, but also tried to intimidate her and her mom like that….Â
She pressed her pale lips together, looking really wronged, “Mr. Dunbar, listen to me, we…”Â
“Mr. Dunbar! You couldn’t do this to us!”Â
Erin freaked out as soon as she heard they were going to the station. She rushed up and grabbed Armando’s sleeve, begging, “You can’t do this to us! Our Juliette and you…”Â
“Shut up!” Armando said coldly and called the bodyguards outside the door.”Drag them out. Also, call 911 and report them for assault!”Â
Boom!Â
Juliette just felt like the sky was falling.Â
She was a public figure. If she got taken to the police station, she just couldn’t handle the negative impact!Â

Did Armando really have to go that far?Â
No!Â
She didn’t believe…Â
She bit her lip, her eyes red, and looked at Armando….Â
However, the man didn’t pay attention to her and kept watching Jovana the whole time.Â
Juliette clenched her back teeth in jealousy.Â

Seeing that Erin was about to argue again, she quickly pulled her and said in a low voice, “That’s enough, Mom, stop talking!”Â
Erin was so upset she almost chewed her inner lip raw.Â
At the same time, the door to the ward was pushed open.Â
Two bodyguards came in and pushed them out of the hospital room by their shoulders without any pity.Â
Juliette felt so wronged.Â
She looked over with tears in her eyes and saw Armando holding Jovana in his arms, saying something in a soft voice… He was unbelievably gentle.Â
Looking at myself and my mom again… like two pieces of trash that got thrown away, Armando didn’t even spare us a glance.Â
“Juliette! You went through so much, and Armando didn’t even care? He even wanted to send all of us to the police station?” Erin thought it was ridiculous and felt like crying.”Didn’t he spoil you? Didn’t he ignore his wife for you? How could he be so heartless?!”Â
Juliette looked as pale as death, like someone had slapped her twice.Â
Now when she heard these words, she just felt embarrassed.Â
Erin was really upset, “That Jovana was just too much. You make a living with your looks, and she actually had someone beat you up like this!”Â
These words hit Juliette right where it hurt. For a popular star, her face meant everything.Â
Juliette was so mad her face almost twisted.Â
On the way to take her home, Armando got a call and just left her alone on the street. It was late at night, and she finally managed to get a cab, but then she ran into some thugs. She didn’t even see their faces before they put a hood over her head and beat her up. In the end, they dumped her in an alley…Â
Humiliation, pain… she went through it all.Â
Her face still hurt even now!Â
