Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1431

Even if Jim created some questionable medicines in the process, it wouldn't matter. After all, he wouldn't be the one to suffer the consequences of the experimental drugs.

Take Simon, for example. After consuming the latest concoction from Jim's research, he transformed into someone incapable of uttering a word.

Even when Jim asked him to leave the pharmaceutical laboratory, Simon refused to budge.

Little did Jim expect that Diana would call Simon. Jim glanced at Simon, his eyes an indescribable emotion.

Eventually, his mocking tone turned into sarcasm.

“You seem to have deep feelings for her.”

Simon smiled, neither confirming nor denying Jim's words.

Whether the feelings were deep or not, Simon couldn't even figure it out himself.

He recalled that warm Christmas dinner, unsure whether he should continue treating Diana as a woman or regard her as his sister-in-law.

Hah...

Even if he wanted to see her as a sister-in-law, Julian probably wouldn't agree.

Thinking about Julian's disapproving face and the tacit approval he received during the dinner at the Fulcher family table, a warmth he couldn't express flowed within him.

Throughout his life, it seemed like he was always compared to Julian. Because of this comparison, he sought recognition from the Fulchers.

Now that Madam Fulcher was no longer around and

Julian's parents were gone, the only recognition he sought was from Julian.

His brother.

Simon silently pronounced the word in his heart, and his smile widened.

In fact, saying that word felt quite pleasant. His mouth was filled with sweetness, and the sharp burning sensation in his throat was gone.

He was halfway reclining on the sofa. After a few minutes of silence, Simon picked up a black pill in front of him. He grabbed a glass of water, and tilted his head back to swallow it.

Fanny had another dream.

In her dreams, there was always a child crying out for his mother.

He was so small and chubby. Sometimes, he glowed white, as if he was radiating light. Other times, he seemed to frown.
