Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 120

Chapter 120

“Holy sh*t!” Nina was unable to hold back from cursing. “So James is planning to use that contract so that you’d owe the Winningtons thirteen million instead?”

“I think that’s his plan,” Diana said, exasperated. “He kept going on and on about how he wanted justice for himself and Kayla, but essentially…”

James had simply never seen Diana as his daughter.

It seemed the Winningtons would do anything to keep Kayla happy.

“That’s weird,” Nina said as she pondered over the flawed logic of the story. “No matter how angry James is, he should know that you want the money to pay Julian so that you can divorce him. Isn’t that exactly what the Winningtons want? But now that they’re not giving you the money, then…”

“I don’t know.” Diana shook her head. “Perhaps he thought I was being too outrageous when I said all those things. There’s also Kayla’s throat…”

Before Diana could finish, she spotted a luxury car stop at the hospital’s entrance.

It was a sleek, black Rolls Royce; one of Julian’s cars.

Suddenly conscious of which department they were in, Diana immediately turned around nervously. “Nina! Julian and Kayla are here!”

Nina was startled by the sudden exclamation, and all thoughts about why the Winnington family refused to give Diana the money flew out the window. She followed closely behind Diana and ducked behind a tree, only emerging once they saw Julian and Kayla entering the surgical department before they made their way carefully back to the gynecology department.

“If Julian’s here, staying in Vans’s office isn’t safe either,” Diana said. “Let’s just wait here for a bit. If Julian goes to meet Vans and we run into him…”

If Julian noticed anything, it would be a problem.

Nina agreed without hesitation. “Okay. I’ll send Vans a text to explain things so he won’t panic if he doesn’t see us in his office.”

Strangely enough, Vans never replied. Even when it was Diana’s turn to enter the ultrasound room, he never appeared.

Fearing that he might be in trouble, Nina rushed to Vans’s office to check on him. Meanwhile, Diana stayed in the ultrasound room.

However, Vans never returned to his office.
