Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33

Diana was still trapped in her disappointment toward Julian, so she never expected that he would actually sit down to accompany her.

The two of them remained unusually quiet throughout the meal.

Diana didn’t have much of an appetite. All she ate was bread and tofu with some chili oil and vinegar. She left everything else practically untouched.

Julian asked a maid to take all the food away before finally speaking. “Didn’t you used to like tofu pudding?”

The Fulcher family didn’t have a habit of eating carbohydrates for breakfast. Back when Diana suddenly wanted to eat these foods, Julian personally drove for an hour to buy them from a stall outside.

Did he give her a kiss at the time?

Julian only realized there was coriander on his face after arriving at the office. For a long time after that, people who came over for business talks would bring him the best coriander in town.

Julian couldn’t resist looking at Diana after recalling the past. “You didn’t eat much at Grandmother’s place a few days ago when she prepared pan–fried pork belly and crab cake for you. Has your taste in food changed?”

Being pregnant certainly did change Diana’s diet. She now avoided cold, oily food and tended to prefer sour and spicy food.

She was already being very careful.

It was similar to the case of pregnancy–derived nausea. Even if she felt extremely nauseous, she would hold it in and behave normally while making her way to the bathroom. She would then turn on the faucet before vomiting, for fear of having someone notice that something was amiss.

However, Julian was surprisingly perceptive each time.

Alarm bells rang loudly in Diana’s heart. She was afraid Julian might pay even more careful attention. “I’ve gotten used to your western breakfast after eating it every day for the past three years.”

The room suddenly fell silent after she finished speaking.

Julian shrugged. There were mixed emotions in his eyes. “I thought you were only putting up with me in the past. In reality, you probably preferred the eastern style of breakfast more.”

That was why Julian tasked the kitchen staff to prepare these food every day ever since their divorce was brought up. It was his way of trying to make it up to her.
