Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 436

"Diana," Mr. Crawford sounded a little awkward from the other end. "I didn't invest in your studio because I didn't think it a good fit after some consideration. It's quite normal in business, right? There was no need to curse me like that, was there?"

Diana was stunned. "You're not going to invest?"

"Yes. I just sent you an email explaining my reasons," the old man replied, still awkwardly. "But your reply..."

Oh crap!

Diana hurriedly glanced at her email and blanched. "Sorry! I'm so sorry!"

She felt so guilty. "I didn't mean to send you that! I replied to the wrong email... I'm so sorry! It's okay if you're not investing."

She held back the loss and disappointment washing over her, and hurried to assure the old man. "Please don't feel bad because of my email. I sent it by mistake."

"Did you really send it by mistake?" the old man asked. "Or were you upset about it and were blinded for a moment?"

"No!" Diana said. "You've also ordered a lot of clothes from me before. Do you think I'm such a petty person?"

Mr. Crawford shook his head. "No, of course not."

That's why he called Diana immediately after receiving the email to clear things up.

"So, who was the email intended for?"

"Uh..." Diana was afraid that Mr. Crawford might misunderstand, so she replied honestly after a few moments. "My ex-husband."

At that, the old man didn't press further and said, "Okay. Let's keep in contact if there's anything else apart from the investment, okay?"

Diana nodded. "Of course. I was happy to be able to meet you the other day."

Mr. Crawford smiled, the brilliance of an old fox in his eyes as he said, "I hope we'll have many more chances to meet in the future."

Diana assumed he was only being polite. After all, even the relationship of being an investor and working together hadn’t been established. Even if the older man ordered clothes from her, he didn't need to meet her in person to do so.
