Lahat ng Kabanata ng Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Kabanata 1021 - Kabanata 1030

Diana initially thought that she had to take Betty away from Julian as fast as possible. A man like him couldn’t possibly know how to take care of children.Yet, in reality, he had been a perfect father.The passers-by were right. Seeing how much effort Julian put in made Diana want to give birth to another child.The thought made her subconsciously caress her tummy.Since she didn’t end up taking contraceptives the last time, could it be possible…That there was a tiny life inside of her?Still, Diana knew it was impossible.It was just wishful thinking on her part.Her menstrual cycle had just ended a few days ago.Yet her expression when she caressed her tummy was so full of expectation and happiness, Simon couldn’t ignore it even if he tried.He stared at his legs, and his heart tightened.Sorrow filled his eyes. “I want to ride the roller coaster.” Betty’s childish voice pulled Diana back to reality. She pointed at the thrilling ride that made one shriek at the top of

He was very excited about it.The announcement system started playing the reminders. “Please fasten your seatbelts. The ride is about to begin.”Very soon, the roller coaster started moving slowly. It began accelerating, getting faster and faster by the minute. The scenery zoomed past them.Suddenly, the roller coaster accelerated even more. Diana tightened her grip over Julian’s hands. She couldn’t hold herself back from shrieking.She felt rather embarrassed when she realized what she did, but when she paid attention to her surroundings, she saw that people around her were screaming even louder than she did.Shrieks resounded in the air.On the other hand, Julian remained silent throughout the ride.“You’re impressive!” Diana yelled as she shut her eyes.Such extreme circumstances often drove one to say things one usually wouldn’t say. She howled loudly and boldly into the air, releasing the troubles she had suppressed in her heart. They seemed to vanish in the air along with

“Why not?” Diana asked in surprise.Simon seized the chance to mock Julian, and said indifferently, “Because he’s afraid.”Sean glanced at Simon, and the two nodded in agreement.“Who says I’m afraid?” Julian piped up immediately.He glanced in the direction of the roller coaster. “It’s just one more round on the roller coaster. What’s there to be afraid of?”Diana noticed something was wrong. “Just now, you didn’t puke because you had a full breakfast?”She waved her hands, annoyed at her own carelessness. “It’s all my fault for being so excited that I neglected your feelings. Let’s not go.”Now that she thought about it, Julian remained silent throughout the ride. She even had a faint memory of him grabbing her hand.However, that slight pain disappeared in an instant. She thought nothing of it, but now that she looked at her wrist, she noticed a faint red mark on it.He didn’t make a sound even at the peak of the roller coaster!How frightened had he been at that point?

In those three years in Stirling City, she had already belonged to Simon.He was merely claiming what had been his right now!The foreboding look in Simon’s eyes was something Diana had never seen. His emotions were running wild in his eyes.Simon…Diana had never seen him in such a terrifying state, even when she had zero trust in him.What he was doing right now was enough to wipe away all the affection she had for him—the three years they spent in Stirling City, supporting and helping each other.No matter how much she struggled, he didn’t show any signs of stopping.Fear took root in her heart. She was like a trapped animal in the hands of a hunter, with nowhere to run.She was still trying her best to find a way to escape.Unfortunately, the disparity between a woman’s strength and that of a man was too great.Despite Simon’s disability, he took advantage of how Diana drew closer to him just now and successfully trapped her in his arms.Right now, as long as he didn’t f

The room suddenly went silent. All Diana could see before her was the video that was playing.The video was very clear, playing back the scenes of Simon’s accident that day. She saw herself push Simon.Instead of dodging her, Simon kept moving back in the direction she pushed him in.Just then, a car drove past him.Bam!The bloody scene resurfaced once more.Diana subconsciously tightened her grip on Julian’s hand.“Don’t fear,” he comforted her tenderly. “Watch closely.” His voice had the mysterious power of calming her heart down in an instant.There must be a reason why he was showing her this video. Diana focused her attention back on the video as it replayed.“Wait!” At the 3:20 mark of the video, Julian suddenly said, “Play it at 0.5 speed.”That would slow the video down, and give everyone a clearer look.“How…how could this be…”Diana’s eyes widened as her face turned pale.“How could it be…”Simon…The car would have simply brushed past Simon. He clearly ha
