Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 441

Julian felt his heart almost stop when Diana jumped out and shouted his name.

Still, he was confident that he hadn't revealed any flaws. Even his voice had been changed with the use of a voice changer, so it was impossible for Diana to hear the difference.

So, she was simply trying to fool him into thinking she knew.

"Who’s Julian?" Julian replied, trying to seem innocent and asking in an even more ignorant tone. "Did you call someone else to come see me today, other than the lady beside you?"

Diana's confidence visibly drained away, and she looked a little confused. "I'm sorry, I called the wrong name by mistake."

Called the wrong name, huh?

Diana had obviously done it to try and surprise him, testing if he really was Julian.

The corner of his lips curled into a smirk, and he looked at the voice changer in his hand.

"It's fine. Go ahead and eat. We'll talk about the investment after the meal. I still have to collect rent after this."

The man behind the screen seemed to be a legitimate rent collector.

Had she been mistaken?

Diana sat back down in a daze and tried to look behind the screen again, but Nina pulled her back. "Let's just eat for now, okay? If you keep trying to look, he might be annoyed and pull back his investment."

"But..." Diana felt the man was just too familiar.

Even if she couldn't see his face or the outline of his back, and even though his voice was unrecognizable, she was almost confident that the man's tone and aura were Julian.

Though, Nina had a point.

Diana slowly reached over to pick up her utensils and dug into the dishes before her.

"This taste..."

The food also tasted a little like what the Fulcher family chef usually made.
