Chapter 22 Oliver recognized her right away , so Julia saw no need to hide any longer . She took off her hat , revealing her stunning face and giving him a faint smile . " Yes , it's me . But now , my name is Julia Yeomans . " She stood up and spoke with poise . " Mr. Miller , let me reintroduce myself . I'm now the daughter of the Yeomans family and Noah's fiancee . " In that instant , Oliver's eyes turned red . " Fiancee ? Julia , you're my wife . You can only ever be my wife . " As he spoke, he reached out as if to pull her back to him , but Noah immediately stepped in between them . His tone was steady and firm . " Mr. Miller , please show some respect . Julia is my fiancee now . " Oliver's jealousy burned so fiercely that his gaze darkened and his fists clenched . His words were harsh and sharp . " Your fiancee ? Mr. Vaughan , didn't you know Julia and I are already married ? We have the marriage certificate to prove it . What you're doing now isn't just getting involved with my wife . It's being a homewrecker . " Men knew exactly where to hit to make it hurt most . Gasps rippled through the room . " Oh my God ! So , Oliver's true love was the Evans family's adopted daughter ? No , she's the heiress of the Yeomans family now . " " And they're married ? So , what's the deal with Oliver and Emily ? " " Keep your voice down , " another muttered . " Do you want to get caught in this mess ? " Having challenged Noah , Oliver turned back to Julia with longing in his eyes . " Julia , I know you blame me . But I've taken care of everything Evans family . From now on , I have nothing to do with Emily or the Evans family . Even though the Millers weren't as powerful as the Vaughan or Yeomans families , they still carried weight in Harbour City . Nobody wanted to make enemies today . with the " I even planted those plum trees you love in the yard , filled the house with your favorite dolls , and bought the foods you always asked for . I bought everything you like . I'm just waiting for you to come home . " Too little , too late . Those words meant nothing now . If Oliver had said any of this months ago , Juli would have been overwhelmed with emotion . Now , she just found it laughable . Julia looked him straight in the eye as she spoke . Each word landed like a knife to his heart . " Mr. Miller , have you forgotten that today is the last day of our mandatory divorce cooling - off period ? In two hours , it's over . After that , you and I will have no legal ties . " As for Miller Corporation , I'm not interested in the company itself . I just want to see you lose everything and get kicked out with nothing to your name . " Every word cut him deeply . The pain was intense , but not deadly. Oliver felt his blood turn to ice . He had never imagined Julia could hate him this much . But when he looked back , he knew he'd brought all of this on himself . Fighting back tears , he lowered his head and admitted his faults . " It was all my fault. However you want to punish me , I'll accept it . If you want Miller Corporation , just take it . If you want my shares , I'll give them to you . " Julia , I know I was wrong Please , come back to me . " Hearing all this , Julia scoffed loudly . Tears welled up in her eyes- She said clearly and firmly , " Oliver , you're not worthy of me . " - -not from love , but from the years she'd wasted on him .
