All Chapters of Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

“What’s more, Kayla is outstanding. She’s such a good girl! When Diana knocked on our door three years ago, Kayla went abroad so that we wouldn’t trouble us even though she was suffering from stomach cancer. Can you really bear to hurt such a considerate daughter?” “I want to dote on both of them, but Diana’s going through a divorce right now.” Tears welled up in Kate’s eyes. “We owe Diana too much! Why can’t we keep both daughters by our side?” James stood up and embraced Kate, sighing. “I’m sure Kayla will agree to it, but what about Julian, who loves Kayla? He’d never allow Kayla to be hurt in any way. The moment Diana visited, he immediately got worried that we’d mistreat Kayla, since she’s our adopted daughter. He even called me and threatened to pull out of our project! What would our entire family survive on without that project? Do you want to go back to those days of suffering before you married me?” Kate didn’t want that! No way! Kate’s tears fell on James’s shirt. “W

The agreement that James wanted her to sign obliged her to get a divorce right after getting the money from the Winnington family. “Julian’s even more anxious about it than you two.” Diana did not want to sign it because she did not want to erase that bit of kinship between her and Kate. If it were in the past, she might have agreed to it. But with the baby growing inside of her, she couldn’t help but feel sentimental toward Kate. It wasn’t easy being pregnant. Whatever happened, she was grateful to Kate for giving birth to her. “No!” James objected. “If you don’t sign this, what’ll we do if you trick us and refuse to divorce after you get your hands on the money? You could destroy Kayla’s happiness with your hands.” “Yes,” Kate added, “just take it that you’re giving us some assurance in return for the money we’re giving you. Will that work?” “Hah.” Diana couldn’t help but chuckle. “James has never acknowledged me as his daughter. Even you…” She didn’t feel much affectio

How could Julian be jealous of Diana and Oliver? He didn’t love Diana, and he wouldn’t care about who she is with. It was just that she couldn’t be with anyone else before they divorced; the Fulcher’s reputation cannot be sullied! “Didn’t you say we shouldn’t let Grandma find out about the divorce? You should be careful not to expose your relationship with Oliver.” She knew it. Julian had thousands of reasons for being upset about her sharing a meal with Oliver. And none of them had to do with him being jealous. Diana hid her broken heart behind a calm and composed face. She repeated herself, “Step aside.” This time, Julian didn’t try to stop her. Except that after Diana left, he called Vans to ask for Nina’s number. He called her and said, “I’ll leave Diana in your care in the next few days. She likes to eat the crispy toast and sandwiches that I make. I’ll deliver them to your doorstep every day. Please bring it in, and don’t ever tell her I’m the one who sent it.” Ni

“But at three in the evening, I have to go to Springlake Garden to meet Kayla.” Diana glanced at her watch and said apologetically, “We can’t be late.” “I know,” Nina agreed verbally, but her mind was busy coming up with ways to buy time and stop Diana from going to the meeting. If Kayla was going to such great lengths to meet Diana, it was surely ill-intentioned! What if Diana saw how similar they looked and collapsed? “No way.” If the meeting was inevitable, then Nina had a proposal of her own. “Diana, why don’t I accompany you in the afternoon? I don’t feel at ease with you going alone.” Diana immediately came to a realization. “I knew you wouldn’t make me go shopping with you on a workday for no reason!” Nina was the editor-in-chief and was outstanding in her work. Who would be able to upset her at work? “Please don’t worry about me,” Diana said to Nina. “What could happen to me in broad daylight? What’s more, I’m prepared. I bought a lot of personal defense items. Wh

The pain at her back forced Diana to follow in his footsteps. Luke appeared smug as he leaned closer to Diana. They looked just like a couple in an intimate embrace. Each time Diana dared to tilt sideways, Luke would press the dagger deeper into her back. Just an inch more, and the dagger would pierce right through her skin. Diana dared not make a careless move, but the moment Luke brought her away from his place, things would not look good for her. An idea popped into her mind. She pretended to casually touch her hair as she flung the earring that Kate had returned to her on the floor. The agreed time to meet Kayla was in half an hour. If Kayla saw the jade earrings, she would surely be able to tell that they weren’t ordinary earrings. What’s more, Kate would have worn them before. She would surely know that something was wrong, and might even be able to guess that she was in danger. In other words, in around half an hour’s time, someone might come to her rescue. Howev
