Semua Bab Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Julian felt heartbroken as he thought of how Kayla had repeatedly sneaked glances at him at the banquet just now. Yet, she hadn't dared meet his eyes at all. Three years ago, when Diana took the initiative to reunite with her parents, she broke the peace the Winnington family had for eighteen years. Kayla, who was adopted after Diana was lost at the age of three, got drawn into the mess. Her excessive anxiety had triggered her stomach cancer.However, Julian didn’t know anything back then.He only knew that Kayla went abroad alone, so he began looking for her like crazy for a whole month, but he never heard any news from her. He took it as a signal that Kayla wanted to break up with him. Therefore, in a fit of rage he married Diana, who looked very similar to Kayla. Three years later, he finally found out that Kayla had been suffering from stomach cancer but endured it alone for fear that the truth would distress him. For the past three years, Diana had enjoyed everything tha

As her thoughts ran wild, Diana suddenly felt a cool feeling on her legs. She lowered her head and saw that it was Julian, who was applying ointment for her.His indifference when he mentioned the divorce was gone, and he was basically half-kneeling on the ground in order to find the most comfortable angle for her. It was very difficult for his long legs to be between the ground and the edge of the bed.Yet, he was still as elegant as ever.His fingertips were slightly cold, but she could feel his hot breaths when he said, “Remember to apply the ointment three times a day in the future.”He wouldn’t be helping her anymore.Diana caught on to the implication behind his words, but she couldn’t tell whether she felt happy or bitter at this moment.She hurriedly looked away lest her reluctance would be revealed. She pretended to be calm and said, “I got it.”There was no reason she wouldn’t do things good for her. “Albert.” Julian heaved a sigh of relief for no reason when he hear

It must be because Diana was a despicable woman who greedily sought more benefits from their divorce. It grated on Julian’s nerves so much that she constantly lingered in his mind.Yes, that must be the reason.Julian thought he had treated her well in the past three years, regardless of the circumstances. She shouldn’t be asking to leave so quickly just for the sake of money.Was she really that strong, or was she simply heartless? Julian felt sick when he thought of the way Diana was so hesitant to speak up.Fortunately, Kayla popped back in with a broom. “Julian, be careful.”Kayla's appearance interrupted Julian’s thoughts. His gaze seemed focused again when he looked at her. “Give that to me.”He took the broom, cleaned up the glass shards in silence, and then continued cooking. After that, he ate together with Kayla. “You can put roses with the lilies. They look good together,” Julian suddenly said as Kayla was cleaning up the dishes. Kayla paused for a moment before

“I’m embarrassing myself in front of you.” Kayla hurriedly wiped her tears away and took the opportunity to put her phone away. “I was adopted. I wouldn’t dare to return if it weren’t for you, much less find out that they actually still care so much about me.”“You’re worth it.” Julian couldn’t help but feel distressed when he thought of how Kayla went abroad when she was suffering from cancer. She did all that in order not to worry him and to make the Winnington family feel at ease, as well as to allow Diana to experience a family’s warmth.They grew up together, and Kayla even saved his life.How could he not care about her? Kayla always seemed to be thinking about others. “I wonder if Mommy and the others are tired after arranging for so many things.”“A person shouldn’t be too kind or considerate,” Julian said. “You should think about yourself more. All of us will be happy as long as you’re happy.”“What about my sister?” Kayla suddenly asked. “Dad and Mom are so good to me,

“You’re overthinking.” Julian suddenly felt that he was acting overly nervous for no reason.Diana hadn’t seen Kayla’s appearance. If she did, she wouldn’t be in this current state now.If she was already so upset when she didn’t have the chance to see Kayla’s face, how would she react after seeing Kayla’s face clearly?Perhaps Julian realized that his feelings seemed to be beyond compassion, so he immediately added, “You have no right to provoke me.”“No right?” Diana was on the verge of breaking down when she heard how he was defending that woman. “Julian Fulcher, am I really just a toy that can be discarded at any time to you? You still think that I won’t be sad, right?”He knew that she would be sad for sure. Right because of that, he had to end their mistakes and divorce her precisely.He wanted to hug her and help her to calm down, but his sanity returned when he saw the divorce agreement.He could not make the same mistake over and over again.So he turned around resol
