Julian’s Stand-In Wife Chapter 725
What advice could Kiki want from Diana?The Stewart family was a family of traditional medical practitioners. Even if Kiki didn't possess medical skills herself, her family members were all well-versed in traditional medicine.Especially her father, who was a renowned figure in the field and received special government subsidies. Once she announced her pregnancy at home, she would receive countless suggestions. She didn't need to pretend to ask Diana questions in an insincere manner, as she was attempting to do right now.Julian, who had finally reunited with Diana after a long separation, had no intention of being disturbed by anyone—especially not Kiki, who lacked discernment. He shot her down and sneered, "There's no advice to give you."His gaze had turned ice-cold, as dark as an endless abyss—it immediately instilled fear in Kiki's heart. She felt that she would perish on the spot if he looked at her for another moment.There was nothing she could do but lower her head. By

Diana was even more surprised when she heard Julian's words. After learning about Simon's existence, she hadn't expected him to be so indifferent toward Madam Fulcher's concealment and his parents' betrayal.Regardless, she replied sincerely, "I also planned on going there."But considering Julian's state of mind, she hadn't brought it up."Luckily, you don't mind," she said.Julian's mind was filled with only her at this moment, and he didn't have time to carefully consider the deeper meaning behind her words. Smiling, he said, "What's there to mind? It's not the terminal illness I imagined, but rather the joyous news of a pregnancy. As long as you’re in good health, you can still go out as long as you do things in moderation."Diana nodded. "As long as you’re sure.."If he couldn't move on because of Simon and held resentment toward his grandmother and parents, that would be more heartbreaking than the sudden appearance of a younger brother.Diana's cautious expression amu

Vans then added, "Diana doesn't have obvious pregnancy symptoms yet, so she should take the chance and eat whatever she wants during this time. At some point, she might start experiencing nausea and vomiting. When that happens, it’ll be hard for her to keep food down."By then, she would throw up no matter what she ate.Julian noted it and assured Vans, "Don't worry. I won't delay a minute in getting her whatever she wants to eat. When she asks for it, I'll prepare it for her as soon as possible."Diana listened on, feeling a sweetness spreading in her heart. However, she still had a question. "Vans, why do I often get headaches and shortness of breath lately?""That's due to hypoxia, which results from the babies growing stronger. It's also one of the pregnancy symptoms. If you ever feel that way again, let Julian arrange an oxygen concentrator for you at home. A few breaths of oxygen when you're uncomfortable will help," Vans explained.As soon as he finished speaking, Julian s

Julian had heard the commotion and immediately woke up. He looked at Diana's hunched figure with indescribable distress. All he could do was gently pat her back and hand her some water. "Here, rinse your mouth." But as soon as he said that, Diana heaved again; surprisingly, Julian started throwing up alongside her.From then on, not only did Diana constantly experience the nauseous feeling of vomiting, but Julian did as well. Both of them were rapidly losing weight. Diana felt heartbroken when she saw Julian's state. "I throw up because I'm pregnant, but you're not. Why are you throwing up?"Worried that she would be overly concerned and that it would affect her health, Julian looked up information and showed it to her. "Look, husbands who strongly empathize with their wives will also experience pregnancy symptoms."This proved how much he loved her, and he was proud of it!But now, Julian had grown even thinner than Diana. His once-defined jawline now appeared as thin as a

The visiting doctor looked hesitant and replied, "It’ll take two days for Mr. Fulcher's examination results to come out, madam. Some tests require laboratory analysis, which won't be that quick."Diana sensed their anxiety and immediately expressed understanding. "It's okay. I was just curious. Once the results are out, please deliver them to me as soon as possible."The doctor glanced at Julian for confirmation. With an outsider present, his face remained cold, instilling fear in anyone who looked at him. His words were even more intimidating after he noticed the doctor’s actions. "Are you unwilling to listen to her instructions?"The doctor quickly understood and hastily replied, "Don’t worry Mr. Fulcher! We’ll definitely deliver the examination results to the madam as soon as possible!""Don't scare them." Diana signaled to the doctor with her eyes, then pulled Julian towards the dining room. "Since you obediently went for the examination, I'm sure it must’ve been tiring, ri

If Layla weren't present, Diana wouldn't feel embarrassed by anything Julian said.But with Layla around, Diana couldn't help but glare at him. "Just eat your food."After downing two bowls of extremely sour beef goulash consecutively, Julian’s teeth were on the verge of being corroded by the acidity. His teeth probably couldn't even chew properly now.However, he acted like nothing was wrong when he spoke to Diana. Seeing her appetite rise and her eating more than before, he encouraged her, "Next time I cook, I'll add more lemon." As long as she enjoyed the food, he would adapt to any taste she had.As the weeks went by, Diana's symptoms didn't improve and she continued to throw up frequently. Layla, being experienced in these matters, said, "Nausea and vomiting usually improve after three months, but there are also some people who continue to vomit until delivery."Diana felt frustrated. "When will this end?"Layla smiled. "Madam, all of us women go through this. Just bea

Diana already taught Julian a lesson. She believed he would never dare to casually utter words of abandoning their babies again. When she returned, she would reconcile with him. However, when she went to collect the results this time, she planned to go alone. The purpose was to make him worry and fret at home, and to punish him for his foolish words!She soon arrived at the medical facility, but Diana couldn't see the doctor immediately. Instead, Kiki Stewart was the one waiting for her in the office."Why are you here?" Seeing Kiki, Diana immediately recalled Kiki’s unfriendly attitude towards her at the hospital the previous day.Kiki stared at Diana, her eyes devoid of envy, only confidence. "The Stewart family is involved in all of Richburgh's medical institutions."Although their family couldn't compare to the Fulcher family's wealth or the Channing family's fame, they excelled in the field of medicine. "Since you asked someone to arrange a physical examination for Jul

Julian's recent weight loss was merely due to his empathizing with Diana's pregnancy. It was impossible for someone young and strong like him to be associated with death. She didn't want to listen to Kiki's nonsense anymore.Diana's eyes were filled with panic; her lips trembled slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked like a wilted lotus flower, evoking a sense of pity.'What a beauty,' Kiki thought. Compared to Diana, Kiki definitely couldn't measure up the slightest. Fortunately, Julian was sick, and it was a condition that even the most sophisticated instruments couldn't detect. Only some clues could be revealed through tracing some elements in the body.Kiki had already shown the results to her father. According to him, if the patient didn't receive treatment, the patient would die. Those were her father's exact words. Now, she was just informing Diana of the facts.Yet, Diana couldn't handle even a little information. Kiki sighed. "Diana."She grabbed Dian

She had gradually let go of her desire to get pregnant under Oliver’s persuasion.They stayed relentlessly by each other’s side, albeit childless. Over the years, having experienced all that life had to offer and being each other’s best friend, Oliver died on a peaceful night, never awaking again.Fanny held his hand while sending him off, and closed her eyes forever as well.Diana had seen too many people off in her lifetime.She had grown old herself, too. She could see her life slowly ebbing away.“Julian, I’m so happy to have lived my life with you.” She had transformed from a disgraced young woman to Mrs. Fulcher, respected by all in Richburgh. Julian even took care of her in person when she

He blurted those words instinctively.He had been waiting so long for a pair of daughters, yet when the doctor came over, he saw a pair of sons instead.Diana thought the hospital must have made a mistake and kicked up a fuss, insisting that she had a pair of daughters. She insisted for them to check the footage from the surveillance camera to see if there was a mix-up. The culprit, Julian, could only stand guiltily at a corner and mumble, “Actually…sons are fine too.”As long as it was their children, it didn’t matter whether they were girls or boys. Either way, Diana was the only woman he loved his entire life. Even his love for his only daughter Betty didn’t match up to that.After witnessing Diana giving birth, Julian’s love for Diana went up a notch, to the point of paranoia.For the rest of their lives, he made sure to never let her worry or touch cold water.He took great care of her.Kate finally appeared two years after Diana gave birth.When the mother and daughter

Nina mentioned the Jenningses. “The Jennings family is gone overnight, just like that.”Diana wasn’t shocked.She guessed that Julian had wanted to do that for a while. Not just for her and to seek justice for the Lemmington family, but also for Simon.Although Julian never allowed Simon to call him his brother, he had wanted to annihilate everything that was involved with the Hughes family since Simon’s death.Him making his move on the Jenningses indicated that the time had come.“Congratulations,” Diana said to Nina. “Has Vans come back to you?”“No,” Nina said with a shake of her head. “Lina Jennings isn’t the only thing standing in between us. We have problems of our own to overcome.”Diana sighed. “I think Marcus is pretty good.”She felt relaxed and comfortable around him.Even if Vans came round and worked with Julian to bring down the Jenningses, and had no feelings whatsoever for Lina, Diana wasn’t exactly eager to be with him.As if they had telepathy with each oth

“He doesn’t need to be jailed,” Fanny said, confused. “One word from him, and his lawyers will be able to exonerate him. I just don’t understand why he’d rather go to jail.”“He wants to pay for his father’s sins,” Diana said with a sigh.Fanny didn’t know what to think of that. Was Oliver innocent, or not? He even went to such great lengths to stop her.Yet, the moment she declared that she would never compromise and would rather be under the protection of Diana than to be involved with Oliver, he clearly looked like he was in a daze.Diana noticed that Fanny hardly smiled over the past few days, and rubbed her hand comfortingly. “He just wants a clean start with you.”Fanny’s heart shook. She couldn’t sleep the entire night.The next morning, she told Diana, “Today’s the day of his trial and sentencing. I want to see him.”Diana asked Julian to send a few bodyguards with Fanny on her trip there.When she returned, she looked as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoul

Fanny bet that he wouldn’t dare.That was equivalent to eliminating all chances he stood with Diana.Julian witnessed the scene unfolding before him. Instead of getting frustrated, he stood quietly there, ready to protect Diana, as he watched Fanny and Oliver fight it out with each other.Oliver was confused. “Why not?”He glanced at Diana, and went on, “I did like Diana in the past, but I have since given up on those feelings for her. Fanny Smith, is your heart made of stone? Can’t you tell who the woman I like is after all this time?”Fanny was stunned, feeling suffocated as if something was stuck in her throat. “Don’t tell me it’s me.”Oliver was dumbfounded. Who else could he be talking about? The stars in the sky?Fanny felt indignant under his glare. “If you like me, why did you say that I’m just a child-bearing tool for you?”“If I didn’t say that, would I be able to keep you confined in the villa? Would I be able to dash all your hopes and make you feel hopeless?”

Oliver would never let her go. “Fanny Smith, don’t even think about leaving me in this life!”That was when Diana and Julian hurriedly made their way.Sean located Oliver very accurately. Diana saw the scene unfolding before her, and couldn’t help but recall everything that happened in Jacroaof. She hurriedly told Noel to take Sean outside and wait. She couldn’t afford to gamble on Sean’s safety. She didn’t want Sean exposed to any form of danger right under her nose.Her actions made Oliver tense. “Diana, do you think I’ve gone mad?” He grabbed Fanny’s hand, as if he was holding onto the most precious treasure in the world.Diana didn’t answer him, but she threw her bag that Julian was helping her carry toward Fanny.She was exerting so much force for a pregnant lady, looking as if she wanted to fight with Fanny.Even Julian didn’t know what Diana was trying to do, not to mention Fanny herself.By the time he snapped back to attention and wanted to stop Diana from doing s

However, Fanny must let go of her hatred and past grudges first.The mention of children made Fanny waver. The hatred in her eyes grew even more intense. “Oliver Channing! The cheek of you to mention children!” What gave him the right to say that?!“We agreed,” Oliver said. He didn’t find anything wrong with that. “Fanny, if you want to leave that villa and be free once more, you must give birth to a child of ours.”“What about the child I lost just a few days ago?” Fanny demanded. She found him unreasonable. “Over the past few days, have you ever thought of him, or felt like you let him down? We haven’t even resolved the issues between us, and you want me to get pregnant again. Are you really ready to be a father?!”“I want you to get pregnant again?” Oliver said as he drew closer to her. His eyes were dark, looking as if he wanted to crush Fanny and put her in his pocket. “Weren’t you the one who tried to seduce me by wearing a revealing dress in my house? Fanny Smith, do
Julian’s Stand-In Wife Chapter 1546
Julian stopped talking to the butler, but he was already making plans in his heart.He returned to the study, and told Diana, “Fanny and Oliver have been fighting for a long time, and it might be over something that might potentially destroy their relationship.”In fact… “Fanny might no longer love Oliver right now.”However, the fact that Oliver faked her death and confined her was enough to show that he still cared for her.If he realized that Fanny no longer loved him, he might do something even crazier.“Let’s hurry up and save her, then!” Diana said.“Wait,” Julian said calmly, “I’m not done with my prediction.”“What?”“Oliver really doesn’t like you now.” Julian’s mood lifted as he arrived at his final conclusion. “We can step in to help Fanny.”Diana was dumbfounded.She had thought that Julian went to such great lengths to analyze the situation for the sake of saving another. To think that his possessiveness took over, and he prioritized figuring out Oliver’s feeli

The three of them entered the study.None of them expected to see a portrait of Diana right in the middle of the study.The portrait was most likely drawn by copying a photo. In the portrait, Diana was eating something with a smile. It looked like the day when Diana encountered a pervert on the train and Oliver stepped in to help her and treated her to a meal.Did she smile so tenderly at him at that time?“You couldn’t have smiled so happily at that time when we were fighting over Kayla.”It was a portrait, not a photo. It was likely that the owner of this portrait added his own interpretation and features when he commissioned this portrait.“He still has feelings for you,” Julian said coldly.He no longer wanted to interfere with the affairs of the Channings.However, Diana disagreed. “If he really had feelings for me, he wouldn’t hang my portrait up so boldly right here.”The fact that Oliver could display the portrait for all to see proved that his feelings for Diana were
