Lahat ng Kabanata ng Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Kabanata 1491 - Kabanata 1500

Noel was waiting for this moment! He dared not show too much joy, and even appeared somewhat embarrassed. "Will others complain about us knocking on doors like this?" he asked, wearing a hesitant expression.The lady chuckled at him. "I think you've developed some trauma from being rejected when asking to use the restroom. Don't worry, young man. We're all long-time neighbors here. Not many places are rented out, and everyone upstairs and downstairs is like family."She went to the kitchen, and brought out a rolling pin. She weighed it in her hand and then handed it to Noel, who appeared strong and robust. "In case there's a thief, just hit him.""Alright..."The two went downstairs.Knock! Knock!There was another rapid knocking on the door.Larry furrowed his brow, sensing that today wasn't going very smoothly. Fortunately, he hadn't stopped, and the house was now tidied up. Even the wardrobe was adorned with joyful decorations, creating a festive atmosphere. However,

Noel's face turned cold.He came to rescue her, never intending to ask for money. It wasn't because of her identity, but because she was a human being—just a young woman."Even if it wasn't you, I would’ve come rushing over as soon as I sensed something wrong," Noel said before exiting the car.A few seconds later, the sound of the passenger door opening echoed in the car. He had put some distance between them.Throughout the journey, all she could see was the back of his head—pitch black, with thick hair resembling a forest.She stared for a long time, and her eyes finally welled up with tears.Bastard!She clenched her teeth tightly, forbidding herself to cry out loud.Wake up already!She admonished herself. Noel had never liked her. Otherwise, why would he take money from her family and now speak such words when she was so vulnerable?The car remained silent until it was time to disembark. Only then did Noel turn his head, looking at her. "Cecilia."He stared into he

For a moment, Sue couldn't bring herself to speak. But Cecilia was now in her room, having faced yet another unfortunate event. Sue dared not think about how bad the situation had been.All she knew was that her daughter was ruined—truly ruined this time.Sue clenched her fists, looking at Noel. "It's simple. Do you still like Cecilia?"Noel remained silent.From his silence, Sue detected a glimmer of encouragement. "Noel, marry Cecilia. Someone will come over shortly, and I’ll announce your wedding date."Noel's eyes widened, and there was mockery in his eyes. "Mrs. Jarvis, have you forgotten that I took money from your family? Aren't I just a greedy man who was interested in money, and wanted a woman who could care for me?"In reality, he never took that money. Sue had lied about it to encourage Cecilia to break up with him. Facing Noel’s scorn in person, she felt as if someone had slapped her in the face. She was so ashamed, she couldn’t say a word. But for the sake

Noel thought about entering the room to check on her, but he didn't know what identity to assume while doing so.Was he a friend? Or fiancé, based on Sue's words?Cecilia lay on the bed, her face pale. Desolation flickered in her eyes. "Do you find me disgusting?"Noel had hesitated, but he hadn't meant for Cecilia to interpret his actions that way. "I'll go call someone for help."He didn't explain further, and turned to leave the room.Soon, a servant came upstairs. Cecilia looked behind the servant but found no sign of Noel. He had left.Even if her mother had agreed to her request and brought up the marriage with Noel, he didn't agree.Sue sat downstairs, still feeling uneasy. As she dressed and applied makeup, she used the time to calm her panicked heart.However, Cecilia's words lingered in her ears. "Mom, I've been violated. If you don't let Noel marry me, I'll kill myself!""Madam," the servant reminded her as she seemed lost in thought. "Mrs. Lambert, whom you're

When Julian turned fierce, he resembled a demon straight from hell.His menacing presence frightened Jim's mother, who was already terrified. Even Jim himself felt the powerful pressure from afar.When Jim saw Julian back in Richburgh, he seemed so gentle when standing beside Diana. He appeared to have no lethality whatsoever. At that time, Jim even thought that the legendary Julian was nothing special.But now, he deeply regretted that thought. Was he still just a romantic rival?However, the experiment had reached this stage. Jim only needed to wait a few more months, and they could extract the child from Diana's belly to see if the drugs she had taken would have any genetic impact. This would validate whether their medicine could become the genetic code to control humans.Now, they couldn't afford to fail! Even his mother couldn't become an obstacle on this path!Taking advantage of Julian's attention on his mother, Jim signaled to the butler and whispered a few words in h
