บททั้งหมดของ Julian’s Stand-In Wife: บทที่ 421 - บทที่ 430

Noel couldn't bear to see such a despondent side to Julian, so he slowly retreated out of the room after he had called for his staff to clean up the mess.However, he was also deeply worried.While he had done many things for Julian over the years, he had never done any matchmaking before...But if that was what Julian had ordered him to do, he was willing to study it and be the best. In the end, he came up with a plan that, although crude, was probably the most effective and efficient way."Sir..." To be on the safe side, Noel decided to give Julian a chance to back out by explaining the entire plan to him. After briefly going over it, Noel asked, "Do you think this is feasible, sir?"Julian felt a little uneasy, but upon thinking about how Diana had panicked over Oliver's injuries, was willing to wear a red dress for him and even wore his coat, he still nodded in agreement for Noel to proceed with the plan; albeit quite reluctantly. "Go ahead."As long as the result would s

Unfortunately, Diana didn't have time to investigate the obvious foul play in this odd situation. Customer orders had been placed, and she had to ensure that the clothes were shipped out as scheduled to maintain the integrity of her business.In recent days, Diana grew increasingly busy.On one hand, she contacted the landlord to inquire if the rent could be reduced. On the other hand, she contacted her fabric supplier to find a substitute for the moldy fabric. Apart from that, she was also hard at work raising funds. She didn't want to ask Fanny for further help or let Oliver know about her problems; she wanted to avoid the increasing amount of favors she owed them.However, it wasn't easy to handle all three problems simultaneously. "Ms. Winnington," the landlord said as he stood before her with raised brows. "If you can't agree to the rent increase, I'm willing to compensate you the entire amount for the penalty of the breach of contract. You just need to move out in a week."

When Noel told Julian what happened, Julian grew furious."Why the hell did you bring up my name to help her? Who told you to say we needed to help her openly?!"Noel knew he had done it wrongly. "Then, you don't want Madam to know it was you...?""Obviously!" Julian couldn't help but roll his eyes. "You're not usually such a blockhead. Why are you so stupid when it comes to matters like this?"Julian was seething with rage. "Now, Diana might think I'm making fun of her!""You're right," Noel admitted sincerely. "Madam did say that...""...Noel," Julian hissed through gritted teeth, a bitter feeling behind his throat. "You're really something else."Noel finally realized that he had completely screwed up, and went pale. "S-So... What should we do now to help her?"Julian was also out of ideas. He was afraid that if he did anything wrong, it would only lead to Diana becoming increasingly disgusted with him."Forget it," Julian said after thinking for a while. "I'll contact he

Marvin leaned his fat body against the door."Miss Winnington. If you go out now, it'll be an insult to me," he said bluntly. His gaze felt like repulsive leeches crawling all over Diana, and it made her deeply uncomfortable. She shifted slightly and forced a smile as she said, "Mr. Trotter, I really need to use the restroom."Marvin had taken the chance to touch her hand when he pressed the teacup into her hand just now, and it made Diana's skin itch with the urge to clean it immediately. Yet, the man refused to let her leave."I'll be upfront with you, Diana," Marvin said with narrowed eyes. "I'm willing to invest in your studio, but I'll never invest in people who don't matter. If you want money from me, you'll have to perform well."After saying that, Marvin pulled out a room card and placed it on the table. The meaning behind his words couldn't be any more obvious.But Diana clearly underestimated how nasty the man could get as he added, "As long as you go, I'll always ha

Sadly, Julian didn't see her at all.Diana had hidden behind a wall, carefully and clearly memorizing Julian's smile.Was it that great to be with Kayla?That nasty man who kept insisting she needed to be disinfected, had turned into a gentle and indulgent man with a bright smile on his lips.In his heart...Had he ever thought about her and their babies at all whenever he was with Kayla?Diana felt a terrible pang shoot through her heart; she grew even more determined to secure an investment for her studio and get through this challenging period.She had to...She had to have the power to compete with Julian, crush Kayla, and make that witch kneel at the grave of her babies and apologize!Diana walked away with her heels clicking as she did, leaving only cold indifference in her eyes.Julian, on the other hand, hadn't noticed Diana. His smile vanished when he turned to see Kayla.His face turned cold, with an indescribably frightening chill radiating from him.Kayla couldn
