Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 239

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 239

Kayla saw through Mr. Carter’s thoughts. At the same time, she thought it was ridiculous how he had rejected her jade piece before.

As she had expected, no one could escape the temptation of money and treasures.

Unless, of course, the temptation needed to be something better.

Regardless, it would be good for her if Mr. Carter accepted this pen holder. It would make it much easier to

use him in the future.

“You’ve worked hard to care for Julian and me,” Kayla said, placing the pen holder in a brocade box. She made sure to use flattering words as she baited him. “As long as you do your best, there’ll be more where this came from.”

“I’m only doing what’s expected of me,” Mr. Carter replied. He faltered several times, but ultimately, he took the box in his hand. “The people you asked me to arrange for… Should I have them come in for work?”

Kayla’s smile deepened. “Sure.”

She needed to have eyes in the villa. Once she became Mrs. Fulcher, she would make the villa her own. She would then see if any other woman dared to step in here!

Julian could only be hers, and only hers!

Yet…

Kayla suddenly thought of something. “If we arrange for people to come in, that means someone will take over the cleaning and kitchen duties. Did Julian say anything about Diana’s status in this house?”

Mr. Carter was stunned at the sudden change in topic, but he quickly recovered and replied, “He didn’t, but I think he’s disgusted with her work. It’s mainly because of the sandwich that hurt you. He wasn’t happy about it, so he quickly arranged for someone to take over the work.”

Kayla was delighted to hear that. “Yes, that sounds about right. He even cooked for me personally today.”

Mr. Carter was surprised. “Has he not cooked you breakfast before?”

Kayla shook her head. “No.”

Before she moved into the villa, they rarely spent mornings together.

“But I often eat lunch and dinner that he cooked.”
