Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349

Julian was surrounded by many men. Though they weren’t very strong, there were a lot of them. He was also trapped in the most remote alley of the place, which was obviously planned.

More importantly, these random punks must have taken a lot of effort to plan for this.

After Julian took out one man, another would take his place. Julian’s enemies were using numbers to overpower him, and it was working as it constantly drained his strength.

It had been difficult for them to get close to Julian as he could still parry all the blows, but he was slowly getting overwhelmed as his strength lessened, and his own attacks had less power in them as time passed.

Especially now that Diana was getting closer, what with Luke watching her with hungry eyes. For a moment, Julian got distracted, and a heavy blow landed on his head.

The rain continued to pour down on them. Julian’s ears buzzed from the blow, but he shook his head roughly and his eyes cleared.

“Come at me, Luke,” Julian said with a calm voice, and he even had time to call out to Diana, “Go back to the car.”

He couldn’t let her get hurt.

Diana knew she would be no help. Although she had screamed at the crowd, no one came to help. She was panicking inwardly. She knew at once that Julian had shouted at her to not approach him because he had noticed the strangeness of the situation.

And yet, Julian’s head… There was blood running down his face, and it was an alarming sight as it bled into his previously pristine white shirt.

Logically, Diana knew she should turn around and return to the car. She should avoid this alley and head back into the crowd, then lock the doors and windows so she would be safe. However, her legs were rooted to the ground, and she couldn’t move.

“Julian…” Diana whimpered, her face filled with worry.

Julian smiled at her, even in the dire situation he was in. “It’ll be fine.”

Though he said so, the bat came down hard on his shoulder in the next second.

He staggered from the unavoidable blow, and the men around him saw this moment to pounce all at once.

On the other hand, Luke spun the dagger in his hand lazily before raising it high above Julian’s head, acting like it was a guillotine. The dagger would go right down on Julian’s head if he let go!
