The Lust Of My Husband

The elders blushed with shame or anger when they heard it.

Juliana was not anxious but looked at them indifferently.

It seemed to them that Juliana was looking at them as if they were clowns and her gaze was so sharp that she saw through all their inner nastiness.

Suzanne looked at them with anxiety.

Juliana was so silver-tongued that they had not reached an agreement even though they had invited so many elders.

Jermaine had been in the corridor on the second floor looking downstairs. At this moment, he came out and said, "All right, let's have lunch first and talk about the shares later."

Juliana looked up to see Selene pushing Jermaine, with Jayden by her side.

Selene stood upstairs, looking down at Juliana with a look of hate in her eyes that could not be hidden.

That day when they had returned home from Benson's residence, she had been beaten by Grandma and the bruises on her body were not yet gone. She had also knelt all night and her knees were still aching.

When she saw Juliana, she thought of her own suffering and could not hide the hatred in her eyes.

After Jermaine came down, Juliana spoke coldly, "I've already eaten. Give me the share transfer letter and I'll leave."

Jermaine looked at her with a sullen face, "It's been a long time since we ate together. Let's eat before you leave. The transfer letter won't run away itself. Are you worried that I won't give it to you?"

Juliana nodded matter-of-factly, "Yes."

Jermaine's face darkened with embarrassment, "Then you go. Whenever you want to have a meal together and talk to me, you can come back for your shares."

Selene softly said to Juliana, "Jill, Dad doesn't have any bad intentions. He just wants to fix your relationship."

Juliana glanced at them lightly, "Let's eat then."

Only then did Jermaine look a little better and ask the maid to serve the food.

The group went to the dining room.

Jermaine asked Juliana with concern, "I heard from Selene that Benson had an attack the other day. Did he hurt you?"

Juliana, "No."

Jermaine then asked, "Is Benson better now? Is he okay?"

Juliana looked at him, "He's fine. It was not an attack but just a little tantrum."

Jermaine found Juliana had put an end to the conversation.

Juliana raised her eyebrows slightly as she looked at Selene, "What are you covering up in a long-sleeved shirt on such a hot day?"

Selene pulled her sleeves awkwardly, "It's a little cold."

She had many marks on her arms and legs from being beaten by Grandma.

It was humiliating to be beaten like this as a grown-up, so she certainly had to hide it.

Jayden didn't say anything and ate quietly, glancing at Juliana once in a while.

Juliana had already eaten at Leach's, so she didn't eat anything.

Selene poured a glass of wine for Juliana, "Jill, give a toast to the elders, as a reconciliation for what just happened."

Juliana looked at the glass Selene handed over and raised her eyebrows slightly.

Just at this time, Jayden looked over.

Juliana frowned and didn't take the glass.

Selene smiled awkwardly and put the wine glass by Juliana's hand, "Anyhow, they are elders. What they said might be harsh, but it's always for our own good."

Juliana looked indifferent and did not reply.

Granduncle Danie looked a little better, "Selene is a good girl. If Jill was half as good as her, we wouldn't be so worried."

Granduncle Owen coldly snorted, "If you hadn't idled away in seeking pleasure with the money, why would we have to worry about your twenty percent stake? "
