Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 145

Janet was being so stubborn, and they were at City Hall, a formal place, Julie had been here more than once, and there were two uniformed cops standing guard at the entrance.

Theoretically, in such a place, with cops around, it should be impossible for any scams to happen.

Moreover, even if it was a scam, it wouldn’t be just to trick a useless divorce certificate.

When Julie signed, she clearly saw the official seal. If this agreement to confiscate the fake certificate had any ulterior motives, using a forged seal would be pointless, as forging seals itself is a serious crime.

So, without much thought, Julie signed her name.

The main reason was that Janet’s behavior was somewhat suspicious, so Julie asked to see the agreement again after signing.

But, an employee took the agreement away directly.

Janet looked at Julie and said, “Relax, why would we want your divorce certificate? The police will investigate whether this fake certificate is yours. Just go home and wait for the notifications!”

“I’d like to see the agreement I just signed…”

“Oh my God, aren’t you the one who had the illegitimate child mentioned in the newspapers?” a couple who were registering their marriage suddenly pointed at Julie, saying excitedly.

Julie frowned, “Illegitimate child? Me?”

The woman realized she had misspoke, so she awkwardly stuck out her tongue and said, “…that’s what the news said, a cunning woman of the 21st century, trapping men with an illegitimate child…”

“Illegitimate child? Men?” Julie looked at the lively woman, seeming a bit confused.

“You know, Mr. Hernandez from Simpo Co! You’re the woman from the news, right?” The girl excitedly spoke, pulling out her phone and handing it to her boyfriend, “Look, it’s her, she looks identical in profile!”

“May I see?” Julie asked.

The girl readily handed her phone to Julie, and then turned to her boyfriend, “Didn’t you see the woman in the news? Don’t people in your company gossip, aren’t there any inside stories?”

“You know I’m just an electrician, in charge of maintenance. How could I have access to core company matters! But there are definitely rumors, I was just a step late yesterday, otherwise I would have seen the woman in the picture…” The man hadn’t finished speaking when Julle handed the phone back to the woman.

“Thank you.” After saying that, Julie turned and walked towards the exit.

She was leaving behind the clueless couple

Janet watched Julie’s retreating figure leave through the front door, then turned and went upstairs.

At a window-side seat on the second floor, Kieran held the agreement Julie had just signed. He glanced down at Julie, who was pulling out her phone and walking towards Karl’s car.
