Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1395

He was a man! Couldn't he take the initiative?

Just as she was thinking this, Noel reached out with his other hand and held hers.

He looked at her with bright eyes, just like he had done when she was sick, and announced, "Cecilia, I'll treat you well for a lifetime!"

What was the use of such a solemn promise?

Just like his efforts when she was sick, everything had been done deliberately with ulterior motives!

He had only wanted to elevate his status by becoming the Jarvis family's son-in-law.

Marrying her wasn't important. What mattered was that by marrying her, he could transform his status as an assistant in the Fulcher family to the distinguished son-in-law of the Jarvis family.

With just one wedding, Noel could shake off the traces of his roots and transform into something so much better.

This was the result of Sue's analysis for Cecilia.

"Sweetie."

That was a term of endearment for a girl in the South, something commonly used when they were young, but less so as they grew older.

When Sue called her that day, Cecilia was immediately moved—she felt as if she had returned to her childhood. There's no one in the world as good as her mother.

She nodded. "Mom."

Sue patted her hand. "You might think I'm exaggerating, but I've walked a longer road and seen more marriages than you can imagine. In marriages where the families don't match, very few last. As for you and Noel... He couldn't even pass the test of taking money. Do you expect him to marry you, take care of you, and love you for a lifetime?"

Cecilia's heart was completely shaken after hearing these words.

Yes, Noel took the money. The moment he took money from the Jarvises, there was no doubt he desired something from them.
