Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 203

If she could have his baby, that would be even better.

“Kayla…” Julian began.

Kayla placed her finger over his lips. “Julian, I know you treasure me and my reputation, but now… Who else in Richburgh doesn’t know that I’m yours?”

They were even living under one roof, for crying out loud!

What’s more, with James’s deliberate spreading of the news, their relationship had become household knowledge.

“Though I do want to give you my virginity on our wedding night…” She lowered her head shyly, and Julian wasn’t able to see her face. When she looked up once again, she said with a pleading gaze, “I just…feel very upset having been misunderstood by Diana, and just want you to be by my side today.”

Julian didn’t reject her.

Kayla was mesmerized at the sight of him, and gaped at him speechlessly.

Julian did exactly as he said he would and stayed by her bedside to accompany her.

However, the sight of him keeping his distance made her heart sink.

Kayla heard him getting up and quickly held him steady. “Be careful.”

She seized the chance to grab his hand.

This time round, he didn’t reject her and didn’t push her away firmly.

Kayla wanted Diana to see how intimate they were, so she suggested to Julian, “There aren’t enough toiletries in the guest room. Shall we head downstairs to wash up?”

“Okay,” Julian replied mildly. “Remember to ask Mr. Carter to replenish one more set of toiletries in this

room.”

Kayla’s heart thumped as her face flushed. “I’ll do that.”
