Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 370

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 370

Julian looked up and felt the ache in his heart deepen. He gazed at the sky, hoping that it would keep his tears from spilling out.

He placed his hand gently on Diana’s back and patted her.

“Look up in the sky, Diana. They’re watching us from above.”

Diana refused to move. Her mind was numb.

It was as if her mind had split into several people. One was cursing Kayla, another was condemning Mr. Carter, another was cursing Julian, and the last was cursing herself.

“You’re an idiot. An idiot!”

Diana answered her inner thoughts out loud, “Yes. I’m an idiot. I was the one who failed my babies. I shouldn’t have been sad during my pregnancy, and I shouldn’t have been so slow to notice that something was wrong with Mr. Carter…”

After saying that, she suddenly pushed Julian away and pulled out her divorce certificate.

“Look at this!” Diana said, seemingly to empty air. “I’m divorced, so I won’t be sad anymore. I won’t be stupid anymore…so will you return my babies to me? If I could turn back time and have them back, I would’ve left Richburgh the first chance I got. I’d leave to a place where no one can find us, and bring them into the world peacefully…”

Her eyes were so swollen, and she could barely see out of it. Despite that, tears filled her eyes again, and her entire face looked puffed up.

“If they can’t find us… If they can’t…that would be great. My babies and I would be safe…”

There was so much regret in her voice.

The intention to talk her down instantly vanished from Julian’s heart.

He was also blaming himself.

He blamed himself for not being able to protect the woman he loved and his children.

“So, the divorce really was a way to be free for you,” Julian muttered as he hugged her. He didn’t ask her to look

up into the sky again and said gently, “Aster and Star are watching us. They’re seeing how bad of a father and husband I am.”

And at the grave of their children, Julian finally shed a tear.

Diana was still caught up in her drunken world, so Julian didn’t get any response from her. That didn’t anger him. He simply continued patting her back, and slowly massaged her stomach. He hoped she wouldn’t feel too bad after drinking so much.

In the darkness of the night, Diana cried as Julian listened.

After an unknown amount of time, Diana’s emotions finally settled down a little.
