Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 564

Chapter 564

This year's autumn was a very rainy autumn one.

Diana looked at the rain through the window. It was just a drizzle and not a heavy rain, but the entire city was overcast and everything looked dreadfully gray.

Pedestrians shuffled endlessly along the roads, holding up their umbrellas, in a hurry to get to wherever they needed to be. They looked like tiny ants zooming right below her.

Suddenly, Diana thought of Oliver.

He said that to return him the favor, he wanted her to bring an umbrella to him in the rain.

It wasn't appropriate to stay indebted to him for too long. Diana glanced at her work, which was almost done, and stood up. She grabbed an umbrella and braved the rain outside.

It was just about noon when she reached Central Hospital.

Many doctors and nurses were coming in and out of the canteen.

Diana remembered what Oliver said, and was afraid that he would get caught in the rain and walked hurriedly to the outpatient clinics.

She was wearing a white lace dress today, which made her look like a pristine white flower under the gray weather. No matter which angle one looked, one couldn't help but be astounded by her beauty.

Oliver saw her from afar.

"Dr. Channing." A colleague walked past him, "Shall we go for lunch?" He had his eyes on the umbrella in Oliver's hand and added, "I forgot to bring an umbrella. Can we share?"

"More than happy to." Oliver was even more anxious for his colleague to take his umbrella. "It's all yours."

The colleague was slightly taken aback, and felt touched. "Everything tells me that it's hard to get along with you. You look mild but, in fact, you have some sort of pride that reeks of a sense of superiority. But from what I see today, no one else is as approachable and helpful as you are!"

By now, Diana was walking closer to them.

Oliver was afraid she might find out the truth about his umbrella, and urged his colleague, "Quick, go ahead for lunch. This umbrella's tiny. If we both use it, we'll end up drenched."

The colleague grew even more touched upon his words. "All the more I can't take it."
