Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 23

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 23

Diana didn’t know where he found a change of clothes, but his T–shirt that had gotten dirty from the struggle earlier was gone.

Diana stared at him a few more times. He was not only handsome and had an appearance that wouldn’t lose to Julian, but he also had a warm and pleasant personality that made people feel at ease.

“This is for you.” He put the bag in Diana’s hand. “It’s milk tea. You’ll feel better if you have something sweet after experiencing a shock.”

Diana’s heart instantly grew warm. She said pleasantly, “Thank you!”

“You’re welcome.” The man’s smile was as warm as the sun. He motioned for Diana to sit down first, then helped her to negotiate with the police officer. There was a 180–degree change in the police officer’s attitude. He even asked someone to bring Diana a phone charger.

As soon as her cell phone was turned on, she saw several missed calls from Julian popping up in succession.

He must’ve been very anxious when he found that she was missing when he woke up!

It was a good feeling to be cared for.

A smile appeared on Diana’s face. She recalled the burst of sweetness she felt last night. She looked for Julian’s number, about to return his call when he called first. “Where are you?”

His voice was cold, and anyone could feel the chill over the phone.

He had never spoken to Diana in this manner before.

Diana took a deep breath. The joy in her heart had disappeared instantly. The grievances entrenched in her heart that she wanted to express gradually turned into tears that she held back.

Gradually, she calmed down. “Did you find out that I was going to meet that woman?”

Julian didn’t expect her to be so straightforward and honest. His tone grew harsher as he said firmly, “I

won’t let her meet you.”

Diana understood the meaning behind his words. “Are you afraid that I’ll hurt her?”

Julian’s tone was sarcastic and cold as he said, “You know what you want to do to her, Diana.”

Kayla didn’t even eat breakfast and rushed directly to the cafe because Diana wanted them to meet as soon as

possible!

She had just recovered from stomach cancer not long ago. She couldn’t bear the hunger all morning.

When Julian arrived, Kayla was already curled up on the table. Her face was pale.

He blamed Kayla for waiting so foolishly and for speaking up for Diana. Kayla insisted that Diana must’ve been delayed by something and didn’t mean to keep her waiting on purpose. She also said that she was at fault, and that shouldn’t have stolen him from her sister.

But what did Kayla mean by ‘steal‘?
