Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 543

"Why did she come looking for you?" Julian asked. "I thought you two were still at odds."

"Did you think I was like you?" Vans shot back with a smirk. "You gotta coax a girl, you know? My relationship with Nina is still okay."

Julian was stunned. He didn't expect that Nina could even forgive Vans for getting engaged.

"What will happen now, then?" Julian asked.

"I don't know," Vans replied. "We'll take it one day at a time, I guess."

"You better tread lightly," Julian warned. "She's Diana's friend."

The implication behind Julian's words was for Vans not to do anything excessive.

Vans nodded somewhat helplessly. "I'll do my best."

That was the biggest assurance he could give as someone from the Stanley family.

In any case, Julian didn't intend to intervene too much in his friend's personal affairs.

"I'll be hanging up now."

He still needed to call the dean and dispel the rumors.

"Hurry up and prescribe the medicine."

Julian couldn’t care less about where the dean was at the moment.

"He'll call you soon. I want something that works immediately."

Diana was still carefully spraying her lips with the medicine her employee had given her. However, since the car was moving, there were several occasions when the powder sprayed into her nose instead.

"Don't use that-"

Before Julian could finish his sentence on how he would get a more effective medicine, his eyes landed on her bloodied lips.

"How did this happen?" he asked, his expression darkening instantly.

Diana was prepared for his reaction in advance and said, "I'm sorry."

Her expression was calm, and there was no sign that she was in pain. Her face only showed remorse as she continued, "I shouldn't have messed up my lips like this."
