Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1040

Chapter 1040

As soon as Diana returned to her room, Layla came looking for her.

Layla told her that Simon was leaving, and had asked her to relay the message that he couldn't face Diana anymore after what he had done.

"Would you like to go see him off?" Layla asked.

"No." Diana shook her head. "Parting ways like this is fine."

Diana didn't know what to say to Simon if she saw him again.

"Please convey a message for me. I hope he can live a good life."

Simon heard this, and disappointment flickered in his eyes. He had thought she would come to see him off when he left, but...

"She really won't come to see me off?" he asked Layla.

"No, she won't," Layla replied. "Please have a good rest once you return home. Ms. Winnington said she hopes you can have a good life."

Even in this situation, she still wished him well.

Simon couldn't help the mocking smile that curled on his lips, and looked down at his disabled legs.

"Please thank her for me, for not getting the police to pursue me further."

Meanwhile, Julian took Noel and Cecilia back to the Fulcher Manor.

It had been a while since they had come here. When they entered, they strangely felt that the manor had weathered many storms and looked much older than before.

Noel couldn't help but say, "When Madam Fulcher was here ... The manor used to be so lively."

Thinking of his grandmother, Julian couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

"I'll go to Grandma's room for a while," he said.
