Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1014

Chapter 1014

After Diana woke up, Julian even had Layla deliver some medicine to her.

Layla seemed hesitant. "The master said..."

Diana looked at the white pill in her hand, an uncontrollable chill running down her spine. "What did he say?"

"He said... If you take this, it'd help avoid causing trouble for everyone," Layla replied, her head hanging even lower.

"Fine." The word seemed to be forced out of Diana's mouth, but she understood.

The white pill was probably a contraceptive pill.

"I'll take it."

With that, she picked up a glass of water and swallowed the pill. The bitterness of the pill seemed to leave an acrid taste in her heart.

Days went by, but she couldn't shake off the unease.

Whenever she saw Julian, she would think of the "deal" they made and that white pill.

Gradually, that white pill became a thorn in her heart.

Even without words, the twins could sense the turbulent animosity between them.

Betty held her doll and sat obediently on the couch. She asked her all-knowing older brother, "Will Mommy kill Daddy?

Sean shook his head and corrected her solemnly. "Killing is against the law. No matter what happens, we must not kill anyone."

He went on to explain the concept of death to Betty. He softened the explanation to spare her feelings, portraying death as becoming a star in the sky.

Betty was filled with more questions, like whether she would become a star with hair or if she could wear pretty dresses like Barbie dolls.
