All Chapters of Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Move back into the villa...Wasn't that more dangerous than not getting a divorce?Diana subconsciously touched her stomach, warning bells ringing furiously in her mind.However, Julian argued his case. "We just need to tell her that we know we were wrong this whole time, and that we'll definitely aim to let her hold her great-grandson this year. If you coax her well enough, she'll definitely let you move back here. After a while, when she lets her guard down, that'll be the time to go through the formalities and get divorced."Next time, there wouldn't be any more accidents."Don't worry," Julian said when he saw Diana frowning. She was shooting him a suspicious look, clearly reluctant. Pushing forward, he gave her another assurance. "I won't let Kayla wait too long."Diana was the one who had reminded him of this. Seeing that Julian had finally listened to her properly, Diana didn't know if she was more heartbroken or joyful to finally get her divorce. She didn’t have tim

Julian paused. Then, he said, "I already told you that we have to put up a realistic act. You need to move back into the villa and your room."With that said, he watched the servants setting things up in the bedroom silently before heading downstairs."Albert."Albert was in the kitchen, speaking with the chef about the next day's dishes. When he heard Julian calling him, cold sweat broke out on his head. "S-Sir...""Come with me to my study.""I’ll go with you, sir," Noel said.Usually, Noel only stayed in the villa if he had something to do. However, he hadn't left today. Julian studied the father-son pair and instantly understood. "Alright."When the door to the study closed behind them, Noel knelt before Julian. Albert followed quietly and stood in the doorway, placing his ear to the door to listen to what was happening inside."Albert is hostile toward Diana," Julian said, his eyes fixed on the heavy wooden door of his study. He turned to sit on the couch and looked co

This was bliss!That was the only thought in Diana's mind as she picked up her utensils and took a bite of her freshly baked bread and a sip of her sour tomato soup. Popping a piece of bread in her mouth, she savored the flavor on her tongue as her toes curled in satisfaction.Oh, it was just so delicious!She added more tomato paste to the dish to increase its sourness as she ate. Though it was weird to add tomato paste, it was the only thing to increase the sourness of the dish. Besides, it was normal for pregnant women to have weird cravings and food combinations. The more she ate, the more hungry she got. She managed to finish two servings in a single sitting.Whoa, she really broke the record this time! She had thought it would be impossible for her to finish both dishes.She hadn't expected her appetite to be so good. It must’ve been because it had been a stressful day trying to hide and endure everything Julian threw at her today. Now that most of the things had been reso

Diana was afraid Julian would catch a cold. That would be troublesome, so she went to get a quilt and laid it over him before climbing into bed. Once she lay down, however, thoughts of how Kayla had used this bed made her feel uncomfortable. She couldn't settle down. However, Julian was already occupying the couch. Though he didn't explicitly say it, she knew he didn't want her sleeping there.Diana couldn't understand what was going on in Julian's mind, so she simply accepted this and tossed and turned all night. The following morning, she woke up with dark circles under her eyes as she didn't sleep well.By then, Kayla was already sitting downstairs. Kayla regretted returning to the Winnington residence last night, especially since she received a tongue-lashing from Lucy and understood her position better. Julian was already showing signs of being moved by Diana, and Kayla shouldn't have fallen for Diana’s tricks and caused a scene. Sure enough, when she returned early in the m

If Julian insisted on continuing his probing, then Diana would insist on telling the complete truth. Sadly, Diana knew Julian didn't care about it at all.Julian might go on and on about justice and fairness, but at the end of the day, he would still favor Kayla regardless of the facts.What had Diana expected?She laughed mockingly to herself. It was because Julian had given her the bed last night that she felt that perhaps he wasn't as cold and cruel as she thought.In the end, that was only wishful thinking. It wasn't because of that.It was only because Kayla wasn't around, and perhaps when he saw Diana's face last night, he only thought of Kayla and was considerate toward her.She had spent three years as Julian's substitute wife, so how could she not understand how he thought?He treated her well because he was good to Kayla. In his mind, Diana Winnington didn’t exist.Diana was going to divorce him, and Kayla was the one he wanted to love and spoil. Diana had finally fig
