Semua Bab Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Bab 221 - Bab 230

She had a feeling Kayla would target her stomach next, with the goal of causing her to miscarry.Sure enough, she could see that Kayla's eyes were always focused on her belly, intentionally or otherwise. There was a sinister glint in them, and Diana shuddered at the wicked thoughts running in Kayla's mind.At this point, Hannah finally reacted. Knowing that Kayla was standing up for her, she gained her courage and screamed at Diana, "You hag! How dare you!"After saying that, she tried to push Diana. However, she wasn't the only one doing so. The rest of her colleagues also surrounded Diana. As for Kayla, she was already bringing out the waterworks. To top it off, she was trembling and shaking like a leaf. "Oh, Diana! Why must you go against me everywhere? Hannah’s a good friend to me. Is that why you’re giving her trouble? I-I’ve already endured so much at the Fulcher residence… Can you please stop harassing me?” That statement twisted the entire situation, placing Diana in the

It was a divorce plan.Diana recalled the diet plan that Fanny had provided her. Since she was giving birth to twins, she could only hide her pregnancy until she reached the fifth month, even with a strictly controlled diet and guaranteed nutrition.After that, others would definitely notice her bulging belly.She had to finalize her divorce with Julian and disappear before the time limit was up, which was around New Year's Eve. How could she ensure that the divorce was finalized within this time frame?Diana pondered about the issue for a while, but came up empty.In the large, white document before her, only one word was written on it. Patience.She hadn't finished her day's work, but when Diana saw that everyone had left and was alone in the office, she lost the desire to work late. As she was distracted by this thought, she received a call from the villa.Albert's voice came through the other end. "Ms. Winnington, it's time for you to come back and prepare dinner.Diana

Kayla thought that after she returned, Julian would end his ridiculous marriage with Diana and make Diana disappear from their lives completely.Yet, despite the excruciatingly long wait, their divorce kept getting delayed.Instead of things going smoothly for her, Julian's heart seemed to be gradually changing.Diana sighed, breathing slowly as she pondered about what to say. She glanced at Kayla; she decided to throw out some bait under the pretense of confiding in the latter in a heart-to-heart talk, and said, "Let's be honest. I understand your feelings. As you know, I'm going to be a mother. I want to leave Julian more than you think. I want to hurry and divorce him because I'm afraid he’d do something to my babies. But..."Diana's tone suddenly changed. "It doesn't seem like he wants to divorce me at all.”Kayla was shocked.Diana's words had merit; it was exactly what Kayla was seeing at this moment.Indeed, Julian was wavering.The thing was, he didn’t realize it himsel

So, Julian wanted her to wear a maid uniform?Diana was stunned speechless once more. "This is humiliating!" Diana finally understood why Julian had set the alarm to wake her up in advance. He even had Albert deliver the dress to her personally!It was an apparent attempt to humiliate her."I won't wear it," Diana said firmly, looking straight at Albert.Albert had a serious look. "If you don't wear it, we’ll have someone come and help you. It's the master’s orders."It meant that Diana had to wear it, even if she didn’t want to.Diana was sure Julian was capable of such a feat. After all, what's the difference between doing this and forcing her to the cold operating theater for an abortion she desperately refused?Julian had never respected her, and did as he pleased based on his mood swings.He truly meant it when he claimed he didn’t love her.All the more reason Diana wanted to get a divorce.Diana stood rooted to the spot, thinking about how empty her divorce plan was.

Kayla didn't want boring things like those dull chrysanthemum flowers to taint her room. Diamonds and jewels suited her so much more!Diana didn't say a word about it. She simply carried the flowers away and continued placing them in the other rooms.When Julian returned from work, he saw the flowers as soon as he entered the room. Some of them were in bloom, and some were still budding; they added life and cheer to the empty room.More importantly, he knew who had placed the flowers here.Whenever that woman saw beautiful plants and flowers, she posted pictures of them on her social media. Whether they were expensive or didn’t cost much, it didn’t matter; all of them were equally exquisite in her eyes.Julian felt his mood gradually improve, and he went downstairs after changing his clothes. As he reached the bottom of the stairs, he bumped into Albert, who was heading to the kitchen to prepare the dishes."Are there chrysanthemums in your room?"Albert froze, guilt flashing in
