Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 226

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 226

Kayla thought that after she returned, Julian would end his ridiculous marriage with Diana and make Diana disappear from their lives completely.

Yet, despite the excruciatingly long wait, their divorce kept getting delayed.

Instead of things going smoothly for her, Julian’s heart seemed to be gradually changing.

Diana sighed, breathing slowly as she pondered about what to say. She glanced at Kayla; she decided to throw out some bait under the pretense of confiding in the latter in a heart–to–heart talk, and said, “Let’s be honest. I understand your feelings. As you know, I’m going to be a mother. I want to leave Julian more than you think. I want to hurry and divorce him because I’m afraid he’d do something to my babies. But…”

Diana’s tone suddenly changed. “It doesn’t seem like he wants to divorce me at all.”

Kayla was shocked.

Diana’s words had merit; it was exactly what Kayla was seeing at this moment.

Indeed, Julian was wavering.

The thing was, he didn’t realize it himself.

It was why Kayla didn’t have the guts to tell Julian that Diana still had her babies. She feared he would be even more reluctant to let Diana go once he discovered that the baby was his.

For now, Kayla didn’t dare take that gamble.

Diana’s words impacted Kayla so much, she almost fainted from shock.

“And?” Kayla challenged, her nails digging into her palm. Her eyes were as fierce as a wolf, but there was also an undeniable trace of fear in them.

Diana found it confusing. Was there something about her that frightened Kayla?

In truth, it was only natural for Kayla to be afraid of Diana.

Everything Kayla had with Julian had been built on the foundation of stealing Diana’s achievement for saving him as a child. Fortunately for Kayla, Diana knew nothing about it. Kayla knew that if she used her chances well, Diana would be a weapon which she would use to cement the divorce.

Thus, she announced boldly, “Julian will live with me until we grow old, and you’ll be kicked out. You’ll never have the chance to be Mrs. Fulcher ever again!‘

”

“Kayla? Are you crying?”

With those words, Diana instantly understood the situation.

Julian had entered the bedroom instead of the bathroom to avoid embarrassing himself in front of Kayla, in the case she and Diana weren’t decently dressed. It seemed he had just entered the bedroom, so he hadn’t heard their earlier conversation.

In conclusion, Kayla’s tragic little act had been for naught.

Sure enough, a trace of embarrassment flitted across Kayla’s face. “I–It’s nothing. Diana asked me to come in so she could give me a back rub.”

“Really?”

Since when was Diana so kind?

Julian glanced at the bathroom, but didn’t move further\. He simply called out, “That’s fine. Take good care of Kayla, nanny.”

When Diana heard the way he addressed her, she nearly blew her lid in anger.
