Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 397

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 397

The plaque Diana gave to James had undoubtedly moved him deeply; just as the flowers had done to Kate.

“How did you get this…?”

The plaque had Master Winnington’s own inscription underneath it. James’s name was also on it.

It clearly meant that the inscription on the plaque had been meant for James.

“That’s not important.”

Actually, it had been thanks to Mr. Crawford that Diana was able to have this plaque. It seemed Mr. Crawford had been close to Diana’s grandfather, whom she had never met. When Diana requested Mr. Crawford to send the flowers over, she happened to mention James in the passing. Mr. Crawford had sent the plaque together with the flowers.

However, she didn’t bring up Mr. Crawford’s existence to James and said, “Hang it up wherever you like.”

Although it was a gift from Diana, the inscription on it was indeed done by Master Winnington. If they hung it up in James’s courtyard, no one would be able to say anything against it.

This meant that James would no longer have any reason to be ridiculed by his relatives, which dissolved the huge knot that had been in his heart for what seemed like forever.

Regardless, it also added to his pain and anguish. After all, he had pushed Diana out of the family with his. own hands…

That, and the fact that he needed to prioritize Kayla’s plans right now.

Even if this gift was satisfactory and meaningful, he couldn’t show his happiness too much.

“Well, it’d take up unnecessary space if I don’t hang it up,” James said as he called out to two of his men.

“You two, go and hang it up.”

The plaque was soon hung up in the foyer for display.

James looked up at the plaque with mixed feelings. For a moment, he was tempted to show Diana some

kindness.

But then he remembered Kayla’s words, and had no choice but to banish those thoughts from his mind. He couldn’t afford not to listen to her.

If Julian discovered all those outrageous things he had done to Diana before, it would be disastrous!
