Lahat ng Kabanata ng Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Kabanata 881 - Kabanata 890

In the past...When they were married, did Julian have this caring side to him?Maybe… Maybe the chamomile tea and sanitary pads he brought for her today weren't just for show. Maybe he made the bed for her on purpose.Bang!As Diana pondered about the past, she suddenly found herself being lifted and thrown onto the bed.It was Julian.He actually tossed her from that height, and straight to the bed!She was overthinking! Even when they were married, they must’ve been very unhappy together.Diana turned around angrily, and pulled back the covers without saying a word.Julian stood there, feeling a bit awkward. Had he...tossed her too high and hurt her?"I just wanted to tell you not to get any ideas." He scratched his nose, then pulled her arm abruptly. "Get up! Drink all the tea first."'Ugh! Go on and keep pulling me! Pull me till I die if you want to!'She must have a screw loose to think that this man was genuinely good to her, instead of acting.She refused to get up

This very book contained all the doodles Sean made from the moment he could hold a pen.Diana lamented, “This is filled with precious memories. I hope it’ll come in handy and let the principal see how talented you kids are.”Julian glanced at the book. He found the childish, yet heartwarming pieces beyond interesting.He leaned in to take a closer look, but Diana pretended not to see him and closed the book. Her sudden movement sent a gust of wind that blew on his shocked face.This woman…Was very temperamental.Julian decided not to look anymore. Either way, the principal would flip through the book when they entered the kindergarten. He would take that chance to look at it with her. By the time they got out of the car, the principal was already waiting at the door.Diana didn’t expect such treatment, and hurriedly greeted her. However, the principal focused on talking to Julian instead.She was full of praise for him.Julian managed to convince the principal not with his

Right now, thoughts about him that Diana shouldn’t be having were creeping into her mind—more frequently than they should be.The best thing to do was to nip them in the bud.After pondering over it for a moment, Diana made up her mind. She looked at Cecilia, and chased after the latter.“Ms. Jarvis, please don’t misunderstand! There’s nothing between Mr. Fulcher and me! He told you the truth. We’re staying together purely for the twins,” she explained. Then, she pulled out her design draft and showed it to Cecilia. She showed Cecilia the photo of the finished dress. “Look, this is the custom-made dress Mr. Fulcher paid for you. He pesters me about it every day, and I was rushing it out the entire day in my studio.”The beauty of the dress took Cecilia’s breath away. Her excitement grew the more she listened to Diana. “Is that so?”“I need one more week,” Diana said. “Come to my studio and try out the dress. Julian said that he’ll be there, and that he won’t miss such a beauti

He clearly held Cecilia in high regard.Sue continued teasing her daughter. “Why are you being so shy?”“I’m not talking to you anymore!” Cecilia was like a little girl, unable to take the stares everyone was giving her. She stood up and ran into her room. Right after she shut the door, she flopped onto her bed. She could feel her heart beating like a drum.She opened the jewelry box containing the pink diamond necklace, her fingertips running over every single detail.She shut her eyes, as if trying to feel Julian’s heart.The date one week later…She looked forward to it!Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, a week passed.Diana had been rushing out the dress over the past few days, and didn’t get much sleep. She looked sallow and haggard.Julian didn’t tease her about looking like an old hag, as he usually did. He didn’t look good, either; his face was dark in a way that differed from his usual look.He usually looked purely cold and disdainful. But now…There w

Cecilia was getting excited.Not only because of this dress, which exceeded way beyond her expectations, but more so because Julian was on his way here. “Here, help me wear this.” Cecilia opened the jewelry box containing her pink diamond necklace, and asked Diana to put it around her neck. “This is Mr. Fulcher’s gift to me. I think it matches the sky blue dress you made for me very well.”Cecilia was thankful she brought it out. She hoped Julian would never forget how she looked today.Julian truly would never forget today.When he arrived at the studio, he knew that something was off. The air didn’t feel right.Although there were no customers in sight, and there was even a sign that says “Closed” hanging on the studio door, he could feel a joyous ambience in the air the moment he entered.It didn’t feel like… Like Diana was going to talk to him about Aster and Star’s death anniversary.Displeasure rose in his chest as he walked upstairs to the second floor, calling out
