Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 229

Chapter 229

Before Julian’s lips could curl into a smile, he cleared his throat loudly. His sudden action startled Diana, who dropped the spoon into the pot from shock.

“What is it now?” Diana asked, annoyed. She turned around, only to see Julian’s expression as black as the bottom of a burnt pot..

“It’s nothing. You can eat once you’re done cooking, but don’t serve it yet,” Julian said, his voice hard.” Kayla wouldn’t be happy if you did.”

After saying that, he left.

Mr. Carter saw Julian’s eyes closed tightly as he exited the kitchen, his handsome features crinkled together, and asked nervously, “Sir, do your eyes feel uncomfortable?”

In truth, Julian was annoyed with himself for saying those things earlier. Without realizing it, he blurted out, “Yes. My eyes hurt from looking at that ugly thing in the kitchen.”

Diana heard his words from inside the kitchen, and was confused. If Julian said she was ugly, wasn’t he calling Kayla ugly as well?

After all, the two sisters looked very much alike.

Apparently, Julian also realized his blunder. He immediately added, “I really don’t know why I mistook Diana for Kayla and kept her by my side for three years.”

At that, Diana’s grip on the spoon tightened until her knuckles turned white from the force. Nonetheless, she remained in the kitchen and did as she was ordered to without saying a word.

If her silence would make him less critical of her and lessen his attention on her, she would continue what she was doing. The less time she spent with him, the safer her babies would be.

No matter what he ordered her to do, she would do it willingly.

As these thoughts raced in her mind, the sandwich in her hand took shape. After a few days of practice, she had become more proficient in making them.

When it was brought to the table, even Kayla was surprised. “Diana’s cooking has improved.”
