Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1371

His cheeks felt like soft marshmallows. It was a comforting sensation, and the most unforgettable thing Diana had ever experienced.

More than once, Diana thought that it would be perfect if Sean and Betty never grew up. That way, they could forever stay as little bundles in her embrace. Their little heads could snuggle into her arms—unlike now, as they gradually developed their own thoughts with age.

At times, she felt like she couldn't keep up with how fast they were growing.

She sighed.

At this moment, Betty was completely immersed in the world of marshmallows, oblivious to Diana's low spirits.

The colorful marshmallows were mixed into a large mass, resembling a pink blanket against the blue sky. Burying one's mouth in it would yield a mouthful of sweetness.

"Mommy!"

Betty was visibly excited. Usually, she didn't have the chance to try these street snacks at home. Having been on her best behavior lately during the trip, Diana's tolerance for Betty's food requests was growing.

Betty couldn't resist pushing the boundaries, and dared herself to try these high-sugar treats.

Fortunately, Diana didn't stop her.

Instead, she joined in. She opened her mouth, and took a bite of the marshmallow.

"It's so sweet!" she said.

Seeing this, Betty laughed gleefully. "Mommy, I'm so happy I can travel with you!"

Diana smiled. "Mommy is happy, too."

She hoped her regrets of not having her children stay as little bundles would gradually fade away.

"Growing at a normal speed is better, after all."

Growing up had its own advantages. She couldn't be selfish and wish for the children to stay by her side forever just because she missed their childhood.
