Semua Bab Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Bab 1481 - Bab 1490

After a while, Julian persuaded Noel, “If anything happened to her and you didn’t pick up the call, you’ll regret it your entire life.” He was more experienced in the area of romance.Back then, had he been more patient in explaining things to Diana or communicated more with her, she wouldn’t have had to suffer so much all by herself and even leave Richburgh.Right now, it was clear that Noel was still unable to let go of Cecilia. Yet, he was pretending to be indifferent about her and insisting against picking up her calls. It reminded Julian of how foolish he had been in the past.Noel pondered over Julian’s words.Ultimately, he shook his head. “No, I won’t pick up her call.”He continued driving. He then glanced at the GPS, and said, “But I want to use your phone to call her.”He wanted to see if Cecilia would pick up the call of another person. With that, he could see if she was trying to play a prank on him or not.“We don’t have each other’s number,” Julian said. It was

“Why…are you planning on putting me in a luggage case or a bottle?”She had legs, and she could walk by herself.Why…Why was he squeezing her in such tight spaces?She was a fully-grown adult. How could she possibly squeeze in those things?Larry chuckled. He chuckled so heartily and genuinely, anyone who saw him would praise him for being a simple and honest man.But right now, this simple and honest man was making Cecilia’s hair stand on end.Larry scratched his head, as if he didn’t care at all that Cecilia had just struck him with a vase. “I either cut you up into pieces or burn you up. That way, I’ll be able to keep you in a luggage case or a bottle easily.”Cecilia’s heart shook in fear.Her body trembled as she asked, “Larry… Are you going to hurt me?”“I’m not hurting you,” Larry said, “I’m just trying to find a way so that we’ll never be apart.”He reverted to the logic he demonstrated earlier in their conversation. “Didn’t I make myself clear just now? Since y

These neighbors had lived next to each other for a long time, and they were always eager to help one another out when the situation called for it.The moment they heard that burglars had entered Larry’s house, many retired old men and women brought their pots and pans and came hobbling over on their canes.All of them surrounded the bodyguards.No matter how skilled the bodyguards were, none of them dared to make a move on the innocent old folks.Larry remained silent, not offering any explanation whatsoever. He simply stood at the side, watching to see what would happen next.The bodyguards tried explaining themselves, but the neighbors wouldn’t have it.The bodyguards had no choice but to retreat. They slowly exited the house. To prevent them from charging into Larry’s house again, many of the old folks continued keeping watch over the bodyguards.The bodyguards were helpless to do anything.They could only call Noel. The chief bodyguard briefly described the situation as

When Jim received the call, he glanced at Diana. Quickly lowering the volume of the phone, he sidestepped Diana and walked into the bathroom, asking, "What's going on?" He was frowning as he asked the butler.The butler hastily recounted today's events. Despite that, Jim hadn't anticipated things to escalate this way when he returned home. The front gate had been knocked down, leaving a large dent in the opposite wall. Julian was driving a heavily modified and high-safety off-road vehicle.It seemed like he came prepared.Their friendship had already reached a point of no return. Jim saw no reason to be diplomatic. He said, "Julian, you entrusted Diana to me. It isn’t that simple if you want her back now."Jim would only let her go once she safely delivered the babies. If he lost Diana this time, he would never have the chance to be close to the child inside her.No matter what, Jim wouldn't let go.Seeing Jim reveal his true colors, Julian didn't rush into a confrontat

"It seems you're not that formidable after all."Jim suddenly returned to the calm and collected man he usually was.Julian still hadn't figured out his intentions, indicating that the initiative was still in Jim's hands.Jim smiled casually, giving Julian an indifferent look. "Feel free to burn this house and eliminate anyone you dislike in this family. However, you won't take Diana away from me."Julian was furious. With a wave of his hand, he instructed the helicopter to lower Jim's mother a bit more. The woman, accustomed to working in the laboratory year-round and rarely leaving even for a moment, was now suspended in midair. The sight seemed to terrify her soul; her screams were even louder than the thunderous noise of the helicopter. A fleeting emotion crossed Jim's face, but it quickly disappeared. Julian observed every nuance of his expression, and he knew that the stakes weren't enough. He made a gesture, and soon, Jim's mother was dropped a bit more.Now, her heig
