Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1080

Chapter 1080

"When will you tell your parents about the annulment?" Julian asked, standing at the doorway. He didn't enter the room.

Cecilia, on the other hand, approached him willingly. Her eyes were red, as if she had been crying. She suddenly pulled Julian forcefully into the room.

With a loud slam, she closed the door.

Being alone in a room with a woman other than Diana made Julian somewhat uncomfortable, especially when this woman was someone Noel held dear.

Noel had been with Julian for so long, and had only offered to leave because of Cecilia.

Noel had been by Julian's side when he needed it the most. Noel had helped him build the foundation of Fulcher Inc., which had grown into what it was today.

Julian wasn’t an ungrateful person, and remembered Noel's contributions well. Despite Noel's resignation letter and his continued absence, Julian hadn't hired a new assistant to replace him.

Even though Noel had no blood ties to him, the man was more family to Julian than Simon, who was his half-brother. Noel was also the only person Julian wanted as his assistant.

Julian looked at Cecilia, and took a few silent steps backward. However, Cecilia continued to advance relentlessly. It wasn't until Julian had backed up against the wall that she finally stopped.

Julian's eyes began to show signs of displeasure, but Cecilia seemed even more upset.

"Why were you trying to please my parents today?" she asked.

Julian was taken aback. He hadn't realized that he had been doing that.

"I was trying to make amends," he said.

He belatedly realized that he might have made a wrong move. At the time, he had only been concerned about not disappointing Sue about the engagement.

Julian had never taken this engagement seriously. He had initially taken Cecilia out because he saw the potential between her and Noel, and also to conveniently have Diana under the same roof.
