Sure enough, the documents were attached.
Alexa stood nearby, practically vibrating with excitement.
Her eyes never left Juliet's face.
Waiting.
Watching.
Searching desperately for even the slightest sign of pain.
Juliet opened the documents and skimmed through them once.
A faint smile tugged at the corner of her lips.
The agreement was exactly what she had expected.
According to the document, she would walk away from Vincent with nothing. No profits. No shares. No compensation. Not even the deals she had personally negotiated and brought into the company over the years.
How generous of Vincent.
Without saying a word, Juliet opened the editing panel.
Her fingers moved calmly across the keyboard.
Line after line changed.
Clause after clause disappeared.
The original agreement was quickly replaced with a revised version stating that Juliet would remain entitled to all profits, commissions, and revenue derived from every contract, partnership, and business deal she had personally negotiated and brought to Vincent throughout their relationship.
After all, those deals had never belonged to Vincent in the first place.
Why should she leave empty-handed?
Once she finished, Juliet reviewed the document one final time before sending it to the printer.
The quiet hum of the machine filled the apartment as page after page slid into the output tray.
Juliet gathered the papers, flipped through them once to confirm everything was correct, then reached for a pen.
There wasn't the slightest trace of hesitation.
No sadness.
No anger.
No regret.
Nothing.
Her expression remained calm and detached as she signed each page one after another.
The sound of the pen gliding across the paper seemed unusually loud in the silence of the room.
When she finished signing the final page, she set the pen down and neatly stacked the documents together.
Alexa's eyes widened slightly.
