Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1007

Chapter 1007

"And are you willing to come with me? We'll leave Richburgh and never come back."

After the meal, Noel brought Cecilia back to the room to rest. In the past, at the Jarvises’ residence, Noel took care of her most of the time, as Cecilia didn’t let Julian get close to her.

Cecilia always said that she wanted to keep her distance from him.

She needed to be reserved and demure.

She wanted "mommy" to take care of her instead.

And that "mommy" was Noel.

If Sue were here and saw how Cecilia relied so much on Noel and continued to call him "mommy", she would probably get so angry she might burst an artery.

But Julian was not very bothered by it.

'Til take the night shift again tonight," Noel said, "I rested for a while in the afternoon, and I'm feeling quite energetic now."

"Okay," Julian said, nodding. He smiled and continued," Cecilia can't do without you anyway.”

Noel’s face flushed a bright red.

"Sir..."

"Say no more,” Julian said. "Just take good care of her."

He knew that Noel was aware of his boundaries.

It was quite late in the day by the time Diana returned.

Julian was in his study while Noel was standing at the door of Cecilia's room.

Cecilia appeared to be pestering him and telling him something. She was also leaning in very close to Noel.

Their faces were almost plastered together, yet the two seemed unperturbed by it as they chatted and laughed happily.

During their conversation, Noel would even help Cecilia tuck a loose strand of her hair behind her ear.

Cecilia would also lean lazily against Noel and even pester him to carry her.
