Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 411

Refusing to back down, Julia kept pressing the doorbell repeatedly. She'd even packed a small bag and come over prepared to stay.

It wasn't that she was desperate to marry.

For people in their social circle, hesitation for even a second could let someone else take what they wanted.

She'd never felt this anxious before, but after losing so badly to Sherry, she wasn't going to let anyone else interfere.

She was going to have Lucas, no matter what.

But no matter how many times she rang, no one inside seemed to hear. She stood outside and called Irene, but for some reason, she hadn't heard from the older woman at all lately.

Still, no one answered her.

Giving up wasn't in her vocabulary. She lingered by the front gate, pacing back and forth where she could be seen through the windows, putting on a pitiful act.

She waited from night until dawn, and at some point, she'd fallen asleep right there.

She was woken up by Heather.

Heather had always liked Julia—she was incredibly generous with gifts and never skimped on favors.

"What are you doing sleeping out here?" Heather frowned. "Did that little bitch Sherry lock you out? Can't you even handle her?"

She was starting to doubt Julia's abilities.

Julia shook her head. Others might not know, but she did.

Whoever Lucas ended up with still needed the Harrison family's approval. What good did it do for a fool like Sherry to win just a little of Lucas' affection?

She was just being played for fun, nothing more.

To truly take the position of Mrs. Harrison, she had to work both sides—win Lucas' love and the favor of his family.

Only a bride personally chosen and accepted by the Harrisons would be treated with real respect.

And to the public, it would be a huge shock.

The Harrisons were notoriously private, and everyone had been waiting to see who they'd pick as their daughter-in-law. Plenty of women were already scheming.

Making a stunning entrance while everyone watched sounded thrilling. Only something high-class and glamorous suited her status.
