All Chapters of Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Chapter 991 - Chapter 1000

Diana felt uneasy, and grabbed his arm. “Julian, what’s the matter?”She pressed Julian down on the bed, wanting to rub his shoulders.But Julian stood there, unmoving. He stared at her, his eyes cold, as if he were looking at the stranger. It sent chills down Diana’s spine. All the warmth she felt toward him dissipated in an instant.Before she could speak, Julian pursued the matter further. “Then when shall we go to his place?”“Hmm…” Diana pondered for a moment, her fingers interlacing anxiously. “After Cecilia and Simon’s conditions improve… We’ll go after we’re relieved of our responsibilities.”“After their conditions improve?” Julian glared at her with a hawk-like sharpness. He paid attention to her every breath, his eyes still cold. “Then tell me: When will they get better? What is ‘better’?“If they always need our care, will you never need to find Shiloh and get him to concoct the medicine to help you regain your memories?”Julian’s voice was dangerous, and sounded

“Layla,” Julian said, as he retracted his gaze from Diana. “Take good care of Ms. Jarvis. Get more servants on the night shift.”At night, Cecilia tended to be more temperamental. People had to watch her to prevent accidents from happening.Layla took note of it.“Also,” Julian said, staring at Diana standing at a corner, “Cecilia will be Mrs. Fulcher from now on. Pay attention to what you say.”Hearing that, Layla subconsciously turned to look at Diana. Shock filled her eyes. “Mr. Fulcher… Then, what about Mrs—”Sensing the displeasure in Julian’s eyes, Layla immediately swallowed the rest of her sentence. Instead, she asked, “What about Ms. Winnington? And the twins…”“The twins will find out sooner or later,” Julian said, which meant that he intended to keep it from them for the time being. “In the future, I’ll give them time to adjust and get used to it.”He had to be the one to see to it personally.Cecilia becoming Mrs. Fulcher was almost a fact that was cast in stone.

Diana’s eyes showed her stubbornness. At that moment, Julian looked at her. He wanted to say something, but nothing concrete came to mind.Then, he remembered that he had already agreed to the engagement with the Jarvis family. The moment he brought Cecilia back home, there was no point pursuing the thought that crossed his mind—no matter what it was.“You have your responsibilities, and I have mine,” he said. Things had come to this point; whether he genuinely loved Cecilia, or simply felt a sense of responsibility toward her.There was no reason for him to give up on Cecilia, who had already lost her senses.Diana thought so as well—but when she had to face up to reality, all she could think about was Julian looking tenderly at Cecilia, helping the latter straighten the hem of her shirt with a bright smile.“You and my brother…” Julian started.Meanwhile, Simon had heard about Cecilia moving into Collina Villa.Things were getting lively here, with him and Cecilia moving i

Her eerie smile gripped Diana’s heart.Diana’s heart sank as her eyes widened.Her expression amused Cecilia greatly. She chuckled as she removed the clothes from Diana’s mouth. Her body was relaxed, and wasn’t tense at all. She even told Diana, “You can yell out loud if you want to.”Diana’s cries for help died in her throat.She simply stared at Cecilia, and asked in a tiny voice, “You’re not crazy?”Smack!Cecilia slapped Diana hard. “Is it important whether I’m crazy or not?”Her hands were so petite, so tender. She even had to shake out the numbness in her hands after the slap. Her eyes were crystal clear.“What’s more important is that I want to take revenge!” Cecilia roared. “No matter what I do to you, Julian will never defend you.”That was the most important!Her words were knives stabbing Diana’s heart.She belatedly realized the pain on her cheeks from Cecilia’s slap. Her cheeks felt hot and searing. The stinging sensation set her pores on fire, scorching her

Diana was stunned for a moment.She gripped her shirt so tightly, she almost tore it. It took her everything she had to keep listening to him. “Diana, Cecilia’s a patient.”His brows were furrowed, as if Diana was the one hurting Cecilia.And yet, she was clearly the one being hurt. She was fast asleep when she was suddenly dragged to the floor. She even got hit over the head.Right now, she didn’t even know whether she had sustained a head injury.Bruises were starting to appear on her arms and legs where she had been bound, but the pain was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.“Try to be understanding.”Damn his understanding!Why couldn’t he objectively, fairly, and reasonably judge who’s in the right and wrong?!Why did she have to bear with all these, just because Cecilia was sick? Diana knew she should keep silent right now. She knew she shouldn’t argue with Julian right now.Even so, she couldn’t hold herself back—not because she couldn’t take the indignation
