Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1011

Chapter 1011

Diana sighed in relief, then shot Julian an annoyed glance.

With her daughter present, she couldn't say much. She could only warn him not to speak recklessly with her eyes.

But with Betty causing a scene like that, Diana's plan to slowly discuss the matter of letting the children choose who to live with was put on hold.

Later, Simon urged her a few times, asking if she had talked to Julian and the kids. Each time, Diana said it wasn't urgent.

It only made Simon more anxious. "And what about what I said about leaving with you? Have you considered that?"

Without waiting for Diana to answer, he continued, "Do you find me repulsive now that I'm disabled, Diana? You...”

"Simon!"

For the first time, Diana snapped at him.

Knowing that she had reacted badly, she rubbed her forehead in frustration and apologized, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap."

However, his continuous self-deprecation exhausted her. Lately, even in front of him, she found herself speaking with extreme caution.

"Your legs... It's my fault. Rest assured-no matter what, I won't abandon you."

"Deep down, you've grown weary of me, haven't you?" Simon asked.

For the first time, a mocking smile played at the corner of his lips-a smile aimed at Diana. She could hardly withstand it.

"I'm not tired of you. I'm just..."

She truly was just so exhausted. Besides, she didn't want to return to Stirling City with Simon. Going back there would truly mean separating the two children. Eventually, one of them would be unable to see their dad or mom. Over time, even the siblings would become strangers.

She didn't want that. She couldn't bear to part with either of the twins.

Yet Simon continued to press her relentlessly, demanding an answer from her. After some contemplation, Diana softened her tone.
