Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 343

Chapter 343

Early on September fourteenth, Diana woke up with an extremely stuffy feeling in her chest. She looked out the window, and sure enough, the sky was dark and gloomy.

“It’s typical autumn weather,” Diana said as she reminded Julian to wear a thicker coat. “It feels like it’s going to be a heavy rain today.”

The clouds were gray and thick in the sky, and there were layers and layers of it, looking as if they were going to fall right down on the people below.

“Yeah,” Julian agreed and brought her a thicker coat. “I have a meeting today, so I can’t send you this morning. I’ll get the driver to send you, but I’ll still see you this afternoon. If you’re not dressed warmly, I’ll beat you, okay?”

Diana knew exactly where he implied he would beat her, and suddenly felt a phantom pain on her behind as she said obediently, “Okay.”

After saying that, she seemed to realize something and added, “We’ll be parents soon enough, and you can’t always do that anymore.”

Julian raised an eyebrow. “Always do what?”

Diana’s voice turned meek and quiet. “…Spank my butt…”

That was what adults did to punish children; she wasn’t a child! She was going to be a mother of two children, for crying out loud!

“Sure,” Julian readily agreed. He knelt and placed his ear on Diana’s stomach, and said, “Listen up, my big and small star. Daddy will never hit Mommy again, so be good and let Mommy eat and dress properly, okay? I’ll pick you all up after work.”

Diana saw the funny image he made as he talked seriously to her stomach, and she couldn’t help but poke his head. “How many times must I say it? Our eldest child is called Aster, not big star! Also, you always talk to them, but it’s not like they can hear you before the third month, you know?”

“Why would that matter?” Julian asked as he straightened up, his taller statue dwarfing hers completely in his shadow. “Perhaps my children will be different.”
