Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1357

That thought made her relax and give up on the urge to find Julian. She continued talking to Jim. “Professor Hughes, how have you been?”

“I’m fine,” Jim said with a smile. “In fact, I’ll continue being very fine from now on.”

His health was something he had the most confidence in.

“Have you found your father, Ms. Winnington?”

Jim always asked the most private questions.

“I’m going to give you a present to put you in a better mood.”

With that, he hung up.
