Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1012

Chapter 1012

Diana's face turned red all of a sudden. She hadn't expected Julian to voluntarily admit that he had been cheated on.

Very quickly, she realized she didn't need to feel sorry for him.

"So, you're using me as a backup plan now? You knew Cecilia fell for someone else, so you turned to me?"

She was back to blaming him. Julian was speechless at her line of thinking.

Never attempt to reason with a woman.

Still, he couldn't help but try.

"That's not what I meant."

There seemed to be plenty of grief in Julian's eyes. Before Diana could react, he suddenly buried his face in her embrace.

"From the start, I only thought of you. Agreeing to Sue's engagement request and bringing Cecilia back was just a situation I couldn't avoid."

Otherwise, he could never get Shiloh to treat Cecilia.

The Stewarts and the Jarvises were part of high society. For Cecilia's long-term well-being, they had to control her illness with slow-acting Western medicine. If news of her illness spread, it would be difficult to arrange a good marriage for her.

But if Julian could take Cecilia out of the Jarvis family and have Shiloh treat her, it would be different. As long as Cecilia stayed at CoIlina Villa, she was essentially Julian's woman.

In Shiloh's eyes, Cecilia had already been labeled with Julian's name. Her origins wouldn't matter much. This was the only way Cecilia could recover quickly.

Diana listened with a puzzled expression. She even forgot to push away the enchanting man in front of her.

The spotlight inevitably fell on Julian, making him shine too brightly. Her brain seemed to have crashed. Every time she looked at his face, it was a different kind of breathtaking. It was enough to make her pause her breath. She even subconsciously believed his words.

"What about your engagement with Cecilia?"

When Julian heard that, he smiled slightly. He adjusted his position to find a comfortable angle on her body, then lay down on her lap and looked into her eyes.

"Didn't you say you don't care about me?"

Why did Diana instinctively believe him? She even subconsciously thought about how he and Cecilia would break off their engagement.

"What? Are you waiting for me to annul my engagement with her, so you can marry me?"
