Chapter 80 The truth about Vivien’s framing of Julia is exposed, and Jared‘ ove for Julia
sl
Things happened so fast, catching Julia off guard. She suddenly slowed down in a beat, so even though she tried to evade it, she still couldn’t avoid it.
In just a blink of an eye, a broad figure blocked her body. Julia gasped. She raised her head and saw the man with furrowed brows. As soon as they met gazes, his expression became softer. Although confused at first, Julia stood up and touched his back.
“Are you okay?” she asked, caressing his wet back.
“I’m fine,” Jared replied. He then took off his suit and held it in his arm. Julia looked at him in awe. Despite the man’s disheveled hair and rugged appearance, he still looked good and domineering.
Jared’s sharp and cold eyes immediately shifted to Carter.
“What a blind bastard.”
Julia’s ears didn’t miss his words. She stared at him and raised a brow.
She thought the same as Carter. But hearing these words from Jared gave her an indescribable feeling.
“What did you just say?” Carter growled and glared at Jared, daring him to say his words again. Jared sneered and took out his phone. He then showed a video.
The recorded footage showed that Vivien spilled the coffee on her body but accused Julia. It was ridiculous because Julia didn’t move a bit throughout the scene.
Vivien swallowed hard. Her lips instantly turned pale. Her body shook with fear as she fisted her
hands
Carter’s eyes widened. He briefly looked at Vivien in disbelief before stepping away from her.
“Vivien‘ What is this bullshit? Explain this to me, and don’t lie that this video is fake!” The videos Julia showed him before could be fake, and he would easily believe they were. However, this case was different. The video Jared had happened just a few minutes ago. He was also there If Carter claimed the video was fake, he would look like a blind fool.
Vivien looked at Carter pleadingly. “I–I-… I didn’t want to do that,” she stuttered.
‘She admitted it! Carter thought in surprise.
He had always known her to be kind and incapable of doing such things. But here she was, lying
on his face!
Carter groaned angrily. “Why? Why would you do this, Vivien? You-”
“It’s all because of you!” Vivien shouted, cutting him off. Tears flowed down her cheeks. “You‘ re so indecisive! You promised me, and you already let go of Julia. Did you really let her go? During our wedding, everything got ruined just because Julia showed up! You even chased.
after her!”
She sniffed and looked at Julia. “This woman can easily manipulate you. She can make you believe the video is real and even force you to kill yourself to prove your innocence. I didn’t have a choice, alright? I’ve reached a point where I can’t live without you. I was so scared that your feelings for Julia would come back and you would abandon me again next month. That is why I
with this plan… So, you’ll give up on Julia completely. But right now… I just realized

how pathetic I am… This isn’t me. I don’t want to do this anymore!”
Vivien sobbed hard. Carter looked at her. Her poor face was covered in tears. Upon listening to her confession, he recalled the incident when she had attempted to jump into a pool.
Guilt immediately rose in his system.
He carefully held her hand and pulled her into his embrace. He let out a deep sigh and rubbed her back. “I’m sorry, Vivien. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have made you feel insecure. I’m the one to be blamed.”
While the two were lost in their emotions, Julia butted in.
“Now I understand why I lost to Vivien. It’s because I don’t have as many tears as her. I just need to cry and cry to get Carter. That’s all.”
Carter frowned and looked at Julia with indescribable emotions.
Jared suddenly reached out and grabbed Julia’s arm, making her face him. His deep, black orbs focused on her.
“He and I were not the same, though. Because I’ll do everything I can to cherish and you forever. I won’t forgive myself if I let you shed a single tear.”

His voice was sincere and soft. His eyes looked at her affectionately. Not to mention his extremely handsome face. Any woman would definitely be swayed by his confession.
Julia was no exception, even though she usually favored reason over impulse. But at that moment, she felt moved and tempted. She swallowed hard and felt the heat creeping to her ears and cheeks.
“Y–Yeah,” she lamely answered and coughed awkwardly. She looked away, avoiding his eyes. She couldn’t even dare look at him straight. Jared’s swooning abilities were too tempting. She feared that if she continued looking at him, she would fall into his trap and never escape.
Jared puckered his lips, obviously satisfied with her reaction. She looked so shy and embarrassed! For some reason, it made his heart happy.
Unlike him, Carter was enraged.
Witnessing Julia’s reaction to Jared was more infuriating than when he saw her kissing Jared.
When he saw Julia kissing Jared, he concluded it could just be one of her acts. A fake performance in front of him. However, this time, her expression was different.
It was genuine.
Carter inwardly groaned. He clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.
Meanwhile, Vivien was secretly watching Carter‘ s expression. Of course, his furious expression didn’t escape her eyes. Seeing him like this made her angry.
‘I hate this! she inwardly yelled. Julia! Why can’t you just die, huh? I hope you get hit by a car and disappear from this world! Dam you!‘
Her heart was filled with anger. She continued cursing her in her head.
Julia took the initiative and held Jared’s hand. She turned to Carter.
“Did you hear that, Carter?” she smirked. “A real man doesn’t make a woman cry. You made me cry before, right? Now, you‘ re doing the same thing to Vivien. Tell me, do you see yourself as a bastard now?”
Carter’s lips parted, looking at Julia with disbelief. He wanted to say something, but his mind.

went blank.
“And you, Vivien,” Julia continued and looked at the woman. “I want to thank you. If it weren’t for you sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong, destroying my relationship with Carter, and causing chaos, I might have actually ended up with a bastard. I’m grateful that you didn’t let that happen. Just remember to eat more fruits and drink lots of water, so you won’t get dehydrated for too much crying.”
Vivien glared at her. She fisted her hands in frustration. If she was in a better disposition, she would have lunged toward Julia and tore her mouth apart!
“Let’s go, darling.” Julia looked up at Jared and smiled.
“Okay,” Jared replied, casually snaking his arm around her waist.
Slightly caught off guard, Julia glanced at Jared’s hand resting on her waist. Thinking of the scene where he had just fetched coffee for her, she smiled in understanding.
‘Perhaps I can consider this as a small reward for him?”
Right before they could leave the place, they heard Carter’s voice behind them.
“Julia, wait!”
Julia and Jared looked at him.
“I’m sorry.”
