Chapter 867 "Hello, what now? I failed, and Lucas broke my finger! Your plan was completely useless!" Juliet hissed into the phone, though her frustration was clear.

There was a brief silence on the other end before the voice coldly responded, "You failed because you're incompetent. And now you want to blme?" "You-!" Juliet nearly leapt out of bed in anger, but she quickly remembered she still needed this person. Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to calm down and asked, "So what do we do now?" "You're too useless forto keep working with. You're on your own." The person cut the call immediately.

"Hello? Hello?!" Juliet's face twisted in anger.

She quickly dialed the number again, only to discover the phone was turned off.

Juliet jumped, her phone slipping from her hand and falling to the floor.

"You... Gernard, when did you get back?" The guilt on her face was painfully obvious.

Gernard walked toward her, his eyes darkening with displeasure. He'd overheard enough.

So, Lucas was the one who broke her finger.

"You tried to set Lucas up?" Gernard stopped by the bedside, picking up her phone and glancing at the number displayed on the screen.

With his sharp memory, he quickly committed the number to mind.

"Who is this person? Did they make you target Lucas? And all this time, you've been pushingto convince Lucas to divorce Aveline because of them?" One question after another, and Juliet's guilty expression deepened.

"You want to leave because you've angered Lucas, right? Juliet, you've been far too reckless." Disappointment filled Gernard's eyes as he looked at her.

Just then, Gernard's phone rang. He glanced at the screen-it was his father calling.

"Hello, Dad," Gernard answered, his tone already composed.

"Get back to Larbor City now! Immediately!" Wilfried Cooper barked before abruptly hanging up.

A sudden sense of foreboding washed over Gernard as he turned to Juliet. "Dad wants us to return to Larbor City right away." "Really? Great! Let's go then!" Juliet, eager to leave, couldn't hide her relief.

Gernard couldn't shake the uneasy feeling. Something felt off, but he couldn't put his finger on it. He arranged for their things to be packed, checked Juliet out of the hospital, and they boarded the next available flight back.

Back in Larbor City, at the Cooper family estate, the atmosphere in the living room was heavy. Several documents were spread across the coffee table.

Judith glanced at Wilfried's grim expression, feeling uneasy. She stood up, intending to slip away to the restroom to send a warning.

"Sit down!" Wilfried's voice cut through the air, carrying a weight of authority that made Judith freeze in
