I could believe she might decide a Grimm's life isn't for her, but not thrusting an either/or situation on Nick. I think she would respect his choice to get his powers back, and if she left, the choice would be hers.
Wherever they end up, I don't see the Nick/Adalind thing being the deciding factor, though. That wasn't infidelity. I would personally define it as rape, though I suspect the show probably won't. I think it will be played as deception, and nothing more loaded than that.
It isn't Juliette's usual modus operandi, the ultimatum, that is. But everyone has their breaking point, and by her reaction in the car, you can see Juliette has reached hers. And if you can sit back logically and look at a situation, you can say, "Yes, you were tricked, I know you would have been faithful if you knew all the facts." But that's a reaction on a logical basis. You could see in the car that Juliette was reacting to it in an emotional basis, and emotion does not often rely on the facts. What I believe will happen is that Juliette will be calm and supportive with Nick having lost his Grimm sight (and possibly his Zombie powers?), but that's going to be a false front. As soon as the possibility of Nick getting his Grimmness back, that false front is going to vanish immediately, and all the slights that Juliette has had to suffer are going to come boiling up, and it's going to be either/or time.
