Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1243

Chapter 1243

Fanny walked into the washroom for a shower.

By the time she was done, Master Channing had left.

"It wasn't appropriate for Dad to be around while you were showering," Oliver said.

Fanny nodded as she blow-dried her hair.

"So?” she pressed. "What wrong did he do to me? What did he do that made it worth for you, the son he was most pleased with, to make amends to me with your entire life?"

"Your hair is still wet," Oliver said, not replying to Fanny's question directly.

He even blew her hair dry for her for the first time, just to avoid answering her question.

He didn’t even know how to do it properly.

Blow-drying someone's hair had to be done slowly, from the front to the back. Alternatively, one could hold the ends of the hair and slowly dry it. However, Oliver flipped Fanny's hair over and blew at her scalp at the maximum heat.

Water dripped from the ends of Fanny's hair that Oliver flipped over down her face, which eventually dried up. The entire process left her at sixes and sevens, just like how things felt like with Oliver.

She was about to open her mouth to ask about things

between her and Master Channing when Oliver suddenly bent forward and kissed her.

"Fanny, don't ask."

If she asked...

They wouldn't be able to continue the marriage the way it was right now.

For the very first time, Fanny relented, even though she really wanted to ask that question out loud today.

Suddenly, the number they dialed to Julian and Diana went through.

"Hello?" That was Diana, sounding as clear and vulnerable as Fanny remembered her to be. It was just like her-she looked vulnerable on the outside, but was in fact resilient on the inside.

She was a beautiful woman, indeed. Her beauty came from within.

Fanny had always been confident about her looks, and never found another woman who could surpass her in terms of her beauty.

In fact, someone had even said that Fanny Smith wasn’t just a name or a noun, but more of an adjective used to describe someone who was beautiful.

Now, the thought of how awestruck she was by Diana's beauty when she first saw the latter brought a chuckle to her lips.
