Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 273

Chapter 273 The Back Door Accusation

They might not recognize the man himself, but everyone knew the Harrison name.

First came the shock-that impossibly handsome guy was a Harrison?

Then the skepticism.

“The owner explicitly said no exceptions. Not even for the world’s richest man.”

The Harrisons might as well be royalty in their eyes, but if the owner himself said no special treatment- and had the backbone to mean it-that meant the owner had serious backing too.

No way they’d cheat openly. If they were going to bend rules, they’d do it quietly.

“Maybe you don’t know this, but I’ve done my research. They won’t open a back door for strangers or the powerful. But they never said they wouldn’t open it for their own family.”

Julia crossed her arms.

“The Harrisons are part owners of this establishment. Surely you both know that.”

Of course they knew.

Sherry had a full dossier on the Harrison family-every company, every investment. She couldn’t recite them all, but this place? Famous enough to remember.

Julia let the implication hang-did they cheat?

“So you’re attacking my company now?” Lucas’ eyes narrowed.

The threat was unmistakable. The weight of his presence crashed down like a wave.

Before now, Lucas had barely spared her a glance, like she wasn’t even worth noticing.

So at first, Julia only ever felt his coldness, nothing else. Not that overwhelming pressure people always

talked about,

She’d never felt that “one more second and I’ll die in his hands” vibe folks warned about,

But she’d asked around. If he was truly fed up with her, truly hated her, then why couldn’t she feel that terrifying aura everyone mentioned?

She’d heard stories-women too terrified to even approach him, sensing death before they got close.

She’d been bouncing around in front of him for this long and never felt anything like a life-threatening vibe. So deep down, she had this nagging feeling-

Lucas hating her was, in a twisted way, a kind of attention.

Guys acted out when they liked you, right? The teasing, the attention-even negative attention meant.
