Semua Bab Julian’s Stand-In Wife: Bab 971 - Bab 980

Julian…Was the only who thought he was spoiling and doting on Diana. It had all been in his own head.In actual truth, he never prioritized her when problems really arose, like he thought he would. Why else would he have been so negligent today?At that moment, deep regret overwhelmed him. That silly girl was probably crying all alone right now.Suddenly, he didn’t have the courage to go to her.Meanwhile, Diana originally thought that he might come back after leaving. However, he didn’t appear at the dining table even when it was dinner time.Her heart gradually turned cold. Slowly, it hardened as well.She pretended as if Julian didn’t exist and took care of her twins as usual, hiding her emotions with a smile.By the time she was done putting the twins to sleep, she felt like things had returned to how they were back at Stirling City. It seemed there wasn’t much of a difference between having no one and having someone to rely upon.Either way, she was able to do whatev

She must be in great remorse, her heart broken, when she said such words—especially last night.She probably felt so helpless when he argued with her.Julian wanted to treat her so well—but somehow, so often, he would inadvertently cause her even more hurt.“I’m the one to blame,” he said, patting her back gently. “I want to take care of Cecilia because I want to correct the wrong I’ve done, and bear the responsibility that I should.”That might be right, but if Cecilia had truly gone insane, how long was he going to take care of her for?What exactly did the Jarvises want from him?Do they really not want Julian to marry Cecilia and bear the fullest responsibility?Julian didn’t consider that last night, but Diana did. That was why she wanted to first confirm whether Cecilia had truly gone mad or not.If it was true, then it was right of Julian to do whatever he could to make it up to the Jarvises.And yet, she had merely raised a suggestion when Julian started yelling at her

He looked up, almost unable to keep his eyes open.He got into the car, leaned back against the seat, and instructed Noel, “To the Jarvises’ residence.” By the time they arrived at the Jarvises’ residence, Sue had been waiting for Julian for a long time.“Mr. Fulcher,” she greeted him, feeling grateful from the bottom of her heart.Despite everything, he had come. This meant there was hope for Cecilia’s condition.Julian even brought gifts; some for Sue, and some for Cecilia’s father and the other family members. His gesture seemed like an attempt to make things better for Cecilia.Some of the gifts were also for Cecilia.Noel carried the gifts, and walked in with Julian.Cecilia had just completed a dose of nutrient solution. A doctor was removing the needle from her arm when she saw Julian. That made her jump from the bed.Because of that, blood started oozing from the injection point. It left a shocking red stain on the pure white sheets.Julian patiently stepped forward,

Cecilia wrapped her arms tightly around Noel.Noel, who had never been in such close proximity with a woman, flushed brightly. His face turned as red as a tomato.He raised his arms, awkwardly and stiffly, like a bird flying precariously in the air and almost falling from the sky. He didn’t dare to touch Cecilia. “Mrs. Jarvis…”Noel had heard what Sue said earlier. He could tell that she wasn’t pleased with his status as an assistant.No matter Cecilia’s mental condition, she was still a rich heiress.Noel put himself in Sue’s shoes. If Betty were closed in a room and behaved intimately with a man like him, forget Julian, Noel himself would beat that man up. He could understand where Sue was coming from, and immediately explained things to her. “For some reason, Ms. Jarvis thinks I’m you… She refuses to let Mr. Fulcher touch her, and even insisted for Mr. Fulcher to leave the room just now.”Now that Sue thought about it, she noticed that Cecilia didn’t look very happy when J

That way, there was no need to worry about Julian disagreeing.On this day, Julian returned home from the Jarvises’ residence as usual.Upon reaching home, he saw an ambulance parked in the courtyard. Thinking that the twins might have had an accident, he hurried inside, shouting their names as he ran.Just as he entered the living room, several pairs of eyes turned toward him simultaneously. Among them were doctors, nurses, Diana, and the twins.When Betty saw that Julian was home, she ran towards him as fast as she could. She stretched out her hands, saying, "Daddy, carry."Julian bent down, picked up Betty, and walked toward the rest. Diana saw him coming, and smiled at him.It had been several days. The two of them only exchanged brief glances when sending Sean to kindergarten. Apart from that, they didn't even have time to eat together.Before, Diana had never smiled at him like this.Seeing her smile at him right now, Julian didn't feel happy. "Who’s the person lying in
