Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 113

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 113

“Kayla,” Julian started once the door closed behind the two older women. “Have you ever lied to me?”

Kayla’s hands, which were hidden under the covers, tightened immediately. She couldn’t stop her brows from furrowing as she endured the pain in her throat and asked, “Julian… What’s wrong?”

What the hell did Diana and that blasted old lady say to him?!

Why did Julian leave the room and return as if he had turned into a different person? He even let Diana leave the hospital!

However, Julian didn’t let her change the topic and insisted, “Have you ever lied to me?”

Kayla’s heart thumped wildly in her chest. In fact, she had lied a lot!

Even from the first day Julian saw her, she had been impersonating Diana to claim that she was Julian’s savior. She had also lied about being kidnapped by Luke, and how she came to damage her vocal cords today. She had lied about everything that involved Diana!

But she couldn’t tell Julian any of that. The moment she confessed, things between them would come to an immediate end.

Julian was perceptive, and she couldn’t avoid answering him, or it would only give rise to more doubt. Kayla thought hard about it, then mustered up the courage to say, “Yes, I lied to you.”

Her voice was hoarse, and every word she spoke sounded like glass scratching on a blackboard. “I wanted you to look at me more, so I pretended to be sensible and lied about how I didn’t care that my sister was your wife. Even the fact that I’m not having a hard time because you can’t divorce yet. Julian… I lied because I love you too much… When I was abroad during those three years, I was afraid of losing you every single day, and I…”

Every single word Kayla uttered seemed to give her great pain. She spoke as if she were enduring terrible torture, and she was speaking so much.

Julian finally placed a finger on her lips and said gently, “Stop. I understand.”
