Semua Bab Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Bab 561 - Bab 570

Julian Fulcher was no fool.That was clearly seen from how he investigated Kayla when she was abroad and found out about her true nature.He was way smarter than she could ever imagine.The more Kayla thought about it, the happier she became. “I feel like I love him even more than I did in the past.”Therefore, she would never give up on marrying him.“Let’s go back home.” Kayla looked at James, “I want to recharge and rejuvenate.”James saw how calm and composed she was. “Not going to make preparations for our event participation?” The event was going to start in a week.Given Kayla’s current state, how was she planning to defeat Diana?“Achoo!” Diana was sneezing throughout the afternoon at work. In order to emerge as champion at the exhibition, she had been working for the past two days in her studio.Julian was very upset with that.He would sit in her office everyday with a black face as he stared at her busy figure.At the start, she couldn’t get used to having an

“I have something else to attend to.” The kiss left as quickly as it came. “I’ll be off now.”With that, he walked to the door and Diana was left watching his retreating figure.He was becoming sillier and sillier nowadays…That was Julian’s own honest take of himself.He knew he would only desire her more with every touch, yet he couldn’t hold himself back from drawing closer to her.Simply touching her lips was enough to send his body burning, making him instinctively want to hold her tight.Each time he kissed her, he felt like an addict on overdose.If he didn’t stop himself in time, he knew what he was capable of doing to her.He didn’t dare to go that far.He was afraid that he would go overboard, and that she wouldn’t be willing.He had to go slow.Go slow…He warned himself that countless times.If it weren’t for the mess in the studio, Diana would’ve thought that what just happened was a dream.Even the few times he told her to look at him felt especially unreal.

The smile on Diana’s face deepened as she replied graciously, “Thank you.”She thanked him for his praises, which untangled the knot in her heart and made her less resistant against white.“This umbrella is for you.” She fished out a black and white umbrella from her bag. “See if you like it?”Oliver was sharp, and immediately understood what Diana said. “You picked this out specially for me?”“Yeah.” Diana didn’t want to tell Oliver about it, but that would make it look like she was overly concerned about it. But since he had asked about it, there was no need for her to lie. The more casual she was about things, the more it would calm things down between them. “I prepared it, since you requested for me to bring you an umbrella as a way of repaying you.”She was simply repaying his kindness, nothing more.Diana caught the tinge of disappointment flashing past Oliver’s eyes.She knew Oliver’s feelings for her, and didn’t want him to be sad. So, she changed the subject rather awkw

Julian’s hands were hot. The past memories of hatred and love between them blurred Diana’s vision, and she almost couldn’t see what was in front of her.All, except for that dark pair of eyes looking at her so intently, filled with powerful emotions.But what if, just as it had been in the past, he was actually looking at another woman through her? What would she do? Diana hesitated.She clearly had expectations, love, and rashness that gave her the courage to take a step forward as long as Julian reached his hand out to her. Yet, overwhelming fear made her pull back the arm that he was holding.The umbrella wavered in the rain along with her movement.Rain landed on her shoulders, awakening her from her dreamlike trance.The man standing right before her was the man who chose Kayla over their babies!He was also the man who chose Kayla over her without any hesitation! How could she let her heart be moved again?How could she…She was a complete failure of a mother!Julia

That was when Julian remembered the 15 million dollars that he threw out of the window and the exhibition that Diana cared so much for. “Let’s go.” He was no longer satisfied with mere texting. He wanted to see her.She would definitely be there.He wanted to ask her personally if she was being double-minded and two-timing by giving another man her umbrella, all the while caring for him and texting him at the same time.Yet when Julian arrived at the exhibition, he didn’t see Diana anywhere.Kayla appeared much earlier than Diana did. She kept looking at Julian, and ended up walking toward him when she saw his poker face and concluded that he didn’t detest her.“Julian,” she greeted him with a smile. “What a coincidence. I didn’t expect you to come.”Julian didn’t believe that it was pure coincidence. “I came here to see Diana.”Everyone knew that he invested 15 million dollars in this exhibition. It was impossible for Kayla to not have heard about it.“You’ve become even mor
