Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1120

Chapter 1120

"I had something on last night," Julian said, looking at Diana when he answered the call.

Her hair was still wet from the shower. She wrapped it up with a towel and was holding a hairdryer, waiting for him at the bedside.

When Diana heard him talk about last night, her eyes darkened.

"What did you have on?"

"What did you have on?"

Two voices sounded at the same time; one was Cecilia over the phone, the other was Diana standing right next to Julian.

Julian swallowed past his constricted throat.

"I was with Diana last night," he confessed.

Diana smiled. She mouthed her question, "Who is it?"

"Cecilia," Julian replied to her.

The mention of Cecilia’s name made Diana’s smile freeze. She suddenly felt at a loss.

What happened last night was real. Their feelings and passion for each other were real.

But... Julian and Cecilia’s engagement was real, too!

Diana clenched her fists, feeling upset beyond words.

"Let me talk to Ms. Jarvis," she said after a moment's thought, stretching her hand out to Julian.

However, Julian didn't let her have his phone. Instead, he hung up immediately.

He said solemnly, 'You don't need to step in between

Cecilia and me."

Cecilia had animosity toward Diana-she might get nasty with her words if Diana took the call. Julian didn't want

Diana getting scolded and humiliated.

Thus, he decided to just hang up.

Diana felt uncomfortable with him hanging up just like that." Do you think that what happened between us last night is something to be hidden? It’d make me seem less justifiable if I took the call, is that it?”

'That's not what I meant," Julian said, "I just don’t want you getting hurt.”

He went on honestly, "What's more, Cecilia was already shrieking over the phone just now. If she hears your voice over the phone, she might just...collapse."
