Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448

Before Kate was a mother, she would always be first and foremost James’s wife.

In that case, why should Diana do something that could ruin Kate and Kayla’s relationship? She had to admit that she had already lost to Kayla in terms of love; and now, she had also lost to the latter in terms of familial ties.

Kate had indeed hurt her today because the truth was within reach, but Diana could see the clear resistance

Kate exerted.

Perhaps Kate wasn’t a fool. Perhaps it was Diana who was one who was a fool in the entire world.

She at first assumed that Kate had been kept in the dark all these years; but in reality, it seemed Kate knew everything all along.

“Since you don’t want to accept it or face the music, I won’t force you,” Diana said, looking straight in her eyes. “I hope you take care of yourself.”

With that said, Diana turned to leave.

Kate stepped forward and handed the packed bowl of soba without looking into Diana’s eyes throughout the exchange. She said stiffly, “I already made it, and food shouldn’t be wasted. Take it with you.”

Thus, the joy of Diana’s birthday celebration was thoroughly gone.

Diana accepted the packed soba, not bothered to argue with Kate again.

“Fine.”

Walking to the door, Diana glanced back again and said, “Thank you for remembering my birthday.”

“You’re welcome,” Kate replied. “Your birthday is also the day of my suffering. When you celebrate your birthday in the future, I hope you consider the hardships of being a mother a little more.”

Diana was speechless. In reality, she was aware that every member of the Winnington family was ridiculous and unreasonable. And yet, Diana would always hold onto that elusive, damned blood relationship between them, and be unable to help but empathize with them and feel heartbroken about it all.

But tonight, she didn’t turn back.

She was afraid that if she did, she wouldn’t be able to stop the tears of anguish from falling.

Diana was speechless.

Who in the Fulcher family would dare write such a thing?!

Was it…

Madam Fulcher?!

Diana recalled the last time Madam Fulcher had promised her that Julian wouldn’t be allowed to come to the mansion as long as Diana was here, and her heart skipped a beat. She had a feeling that Madam Fulcher might have escalated this restriction.

It felt good to be spoiled and pampered, but…

Treating her own grandson this way must be giving Madam Fulcher discomfort.

Diana couldn’t simply accept the kindness of Madam Fulcher and not do anything in return for the latter.
