Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1517

Chapter 1517

"Julian, we've been through so much, it can be written into a thick book. Do you still not understand? We must always look ahead in life. If we remain stuck in the past, it’s not fair to anyone. Simon is dead-we have no way of bringing him back to life, but we can live better and happier.

"In fact..." Diana went on, biting her lip.

"I will remember him my whole life. I’ll be grateful to him, and I may even love him. However, it's not the romantic love between a man and a woman. It’s love between family members, gratitude to people who have left us but done so much for us."

Julian finally revealed what he had been hesitant to say." There's a letter here. Take a look at it. Even if you have a change of mind after reading it, I'll accept whatever decision you make."

Diana was stunned. "Letter?"

"Yes. Simon asked me to pass it to you."

Diana took it.

The words 'To Julian" were written on the envelope. However, the first line of the letter was addressed to Diana, wishing her well.

Diana had lived with Simon for three years. She smiled the moment she saw the letter.

"Your brother," she said to Julian even before she read it. " He's plotting against you."

Just like his legs, Simon knew what would happen the moment he crashed into the car. However, he chose to do it without any hesitation for the slimmest possibility of being with Diana.

"I know," Julian said with a shrug. "He wants me to feel guilty my whole life, and that goes for you as well. It’s best if we split up because of this guilt."

Diana nodded, assured to see such clarity in Julian.

Simon was just that kind of man. He had to make it clear what he had done and sacrificed. He would then make use of his sacrifice to make one stay by his side.

He didn't understand that true love didn’t require emotional blackmail.

Diana read through the letter very quickly.

"He’s exactly the same as he was before."

She remembered when they were in Stirling City. Simon would always tell Diana that he was cooking for her, buying flowers for her, and arranging for a short getaway for her and her children. He told her they need not care about him, as he would stay in Stirling City by himself, and wait for their return.
