Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 497

Though Diana didn't go looking for trouble, that didn't mean she was afraid of it either.

Especially now, when the situation had found her instead.

"Enough!" Diana yelled as she turned around. She looked at Simon, whose alluring eyes carried a glint of malicious mischief. "What do you want?"

"Nothing," Simon replied easily, snapping his fan open and lightly placing it under Diana's chin. "I simply wanted to introduce myself to you."

Diana leaned back, avoiding his fan. "You're nuts!"

"Yes, and you should remember that," Simon said. Though his fan had missed its mark, he didn't get angry. He simply moved closer to Diana and said in a low voice, "I am crazy."

With that, he tapped her on the head with his fan and disappeared down the hospital corridor. The victim's family member, who had been screaming and shouting earlier, had also vanished without a trace.

When the security guard arrived, everything was peaceful again.

If it wasn't for the blood on the ground, Diana would’ve thought the entire thing to be a bizarre dream.

Just what did that madman want from her?

After being in surgery for four hours, Oliver finally exited the operating theater. The first thing he did was to approach Diana with a solemn look. "Did he do anything to you?"

Diana quickly understood who Oliver was referring to, and asked, "Do you know him?"

"He's my younger half-brother," Oliver explained. "We have the same father, but different mothers."

Diana was surprised. "You two don't look alike at all!"

"He probably takes more after his mother," Oliver said with a shrug. "My father brought him back into the family when I was very young.”

Diana felt like she had touched a sensitive topic, and quickly apologized. Oliver understood her well-meaning intentions, and said, "It's fine. Our family has a lot of dirty secrets, and a b*stard child is nothing compared to those."

Saying that made it seem like the Fulcher family was much cleaner compared to the Channing family.

Diana couldn't help but sigh. "Julian's family doesn't seem to have such complicated issues."

"Perhaps," Oliver replied, neither confirming nor denying it. However, he couldn't help but feel sad over the fact that Diana’s mind was still filled with thoughts of Julian.
