Semua Bab Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Bab 1151 - Bab 1160

When Julian remained silent, Diana felt like she was being disregarded.She just wanted to make her voice louder and make her actions bigger, so that her husband would look at her more and care more for her.All the better if he could comfort her, too.She didn’t flare up.She was just hinting to her husband that she needed him.Thankfully, Julian wasn’t a block of wood. His heart was very much occupied with Diana and her feelings. He saw through her, and said with a chuckle, “Are you still angry now that I’m hugging you?”“Not anymore,” she said, shaking her head and suddenly finding herself rather pretentious. She buried her face in his broad chest.“I don’t hate you,” Julian said, his tone growing more gentle when he saw how embarrassed she felt. “I am actually slightly angry.”Diana didn’t understand. “What are you getting angry at?”“I feel angry at myself and at you. Before, I did consider having another child with you. Later on, though… I thought about the scar on your

So much so, that Julian could immediately put whatever Diana wanted to eat on her plate. She didn’t need to say a single word, or make a face.At the same time, she could catch the perfect moment to hand him a glass of water when he needed one while in the midst of doing something.Julian even allowed Simon to celebrate the new year with them.Perhaps Simon shouldn’t have allowed Diana to wheel him into Collina Villa to celebrate the new year with the Fulchers. The visit only roused his compassion and sympathy for them. Simon thought he could longer stand idly by and watch as Diana and Julian were manipulated to the point of destruction. He found it against his conscience to silently lie in wait and do nothing, just for a chance to snatch Diana to his side.He might even…He would step in earlier than expected to help Diana and Julian solve potential problems that might arise.Simon looked down, a bitter smile on his face.He immediately booked the earliest flight he could fin

This time, Nina refused to forgive Vans. Perhaps she was fully capable of living well all by herself. It was certainly better than living with him and constantly getting upset.When Diana exited the washroom, she noticed the disappointment on Nina’s face.Diana realized how careless she had been; she was so focused on whether she was pregnant or not, she had forgotten to show care and concern for Nina. “Something on your mind?” Nina shook her head. “I’m fine.”There was nothing much to say about things between her and Vans. Whatever it was, between her and the Stanley family, Vans would never stand on her side.“How did the test go?” she asked, clearly more concerned about that.Seeing Nina avoiding her question, Diana knew she wouldn’t get a concrete answer even if she asked further. “Nina, feel free to tell me whenever you feel like sharing anything.”Even if it was three in the middle of the night, Diana would climb out of bed and hear Nina out over the phone.Nina chuckl

“What right does a selfish and useless coward like me have to love?” Vans muttered somberly to Julian. “I deserve to be under the shackles of my family my entire life, to be stuck with someone like Lina forever!”Vans shook his head at his mention of Lina. “No… Even Lina doesn’t want to be with me now.”“Why not?” Julian found that impossible. “She used to cling to you so tightly in the past.”She was always so sticky with Vans, almost wishing she could strap herself to him. Back when they were engaged, she wanted the entire city to know so badly that she almost carved Vans’s name on her forehead.How was it possible that she didn’t want Vans anymore?Vans said nothing, and only smiled bitterly. He had too much to drink, so his stomach was feeling terrible. Seeing his pale countenance, Julian knew Vans had gone overboard with the alcohol. He ordered Noel to prepare some hot chocolate for Vans.“See how terrible you look right now,” he said.That was how Vans treated him when

Julian didn't comment much. "If you've made up your mind, that's fine. But you have to deal with it properly. I don't want to go home to my wife telling me to kneel as punishment, all because of you."Vans was speechless.Was it really impressive to have your wife punish you by kneeling? Why did it feel like Julian was quite proud to say that?Even after Julian had left, and after he finished bandaging his wound, Vans remained in deep thought. Sitting on the couch, his head stayed in the clouds. He finally had a word to describe his life: mud.Just a puddle of mud.It was why he was obediently acting as a tool to please the Jenningses, on behalf of the Stanleys.Mud had no backbone, waist, and certainly no knees. Logically, no one could make it kneel.In reality, Vans was always kneeling.Although Lina appeared foolish, she seemed to have seen through him a long time ago. She looked at Vans, who had come to find her, with mocking eyes. "Life changes, doesn’t it? You were th
