Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 444

Just as soon as Diana said those words, she received a call from Oliver.

Diana was startled by the coincidence, and she quickly answered the call, only for Oliver to start with, "Diana, who have you offended lately? Why didn't you tell me that your studio was in trouble?"

He hadn't spoken to her in such an anxious and urgent tone before. Diana was a little stunned, so it took her a few moments to gather herself before asking, "Where did you hear that from?"

After she finished speaking, the call was cut. She was confused, then looked up to see Oliver rushing into the studio, which shocked her even more.

"Why are you here?"

"I came to check on you," Oliver replied.

He was relieved to see that she was safe and sound.

"I heard recently that there was a deliberate attempt to sabotage a fashion design studio. I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but after investigating, I found out it was your studio."

"That's true," Diana said, handing him a paper and pouring a glass of water for him. She invited him to have a seat before explaining slowly, "Marvin Trotter tried to set me up."

After she finished her version of the events leading up to the current, Oliver shook his head.

"It's not about that."

The version Oliver had heard had nothing to do with Marvin. Seeing the confusion on Diana's face, Oliver hesitated but eventually said, "It's Julian."

Diana's heart skipped a beat when she heard the name, and she tensed even as a fog clouded her mind.

"Why do you say that?"

"Recently, those in the investment circle have been saying that they weren't allowed to invest in B Studio as Julian didn't allow them to," Oliver said. “It so happened at the time when your studio needed additional funding."

Once he finished speaking, Oliver couldn't help but give Diana a hurt look.

"You should’ve told me when something so big happened. Fanny and I would’ve been willing to inject more capital in."

Plus, they weren't limited or controlled by Julian.
