Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 442

It turned out the man wasn’t making the same taunting remarks that Julian had, but was actually sincerely asking her a question.

Because he didn't want to meet women, he only asked a normal question: if she had wanted to meet a man.

His inability to properly express himself completely matched what her landlord had previously told her.

Diana relaxed and said, "No need. I've already signed it and placed it on the table. Just come out and get it once we leave."

Julian nodded. "Alright."

But when Diana reached the door and was about to leave, she turned around to look behind the screen without much thought. However, the man remained unmoving.

She gave Nina a wink and asked the latter to go out first while making a motion to close the door, pretending that they had both left the room. In fact, she was waiting in the room to see the true face of this man.

Diana wouldn't be completely relieved until she confirmed it. Otherwise, she would always associate this man with Julian.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Whatever said, "Why aren't you leaving?"

Diana was stunned. "You can see me from inside the screen?"

She couldn't see beyond the screen at all from where she was standing, and had thought that the screens were the same on both sides. It was why she had the bold thought of staying behind to see who the man really was.

"Of course."

Julian had these screens made specifically so that he could see outside from the inside, but not the other way around. He had no choice but to put in more effort to see more of Diana.

At the same time, he was also aware of Diana's suspicions and that she wasn't easy to fool.

Now it was all about who had the stronger willpower and who needed the money more. Thus, he continued, "If you don't have the sincerity for this cooperation, Miss Winnington, then we should stop here."

From the way he spoke, it was likely he wasn't Julian.

Diana relaxed again and said, "My friend went to the restroom, and I was waiting for her to return."
