Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 57

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 57

Every day, Julian would hear the door opposite his unit close before coming out from his room and staring at Nina’s door.

Diana was just on the other side of the door.

Many times, he wanted to just push the door open and barge right in. Upon thinking about her open

admission and questions, he would retract his outstretched hand.

He could sense that he was crossing the line. What’s more, Diana had been staying at home most of the time. the past few days and didn’t meet with Oliver at all. This delighted him.

Another thing that made him especially happy was her admission that she was jealous.

Thinking about it would always make his mood improve by leaps and bounds.

He bought the apartment opposite Nina’s because he was worried that she would go to the Winningtons again and chance upon Kayla. He would deliver breakfast to Diana every morning because he remembered the look of disappointment in her eyes when she had dim sum for breakfast.

Since she had gotten used to the breakfast he made, he would do his best to prepare it for her every day.

Doing so brought him joy, even more so than earning millions at work.

Julian didn’t know if something was wrong with him. Even when Kayla called him to ask him when he would have time to spend with her, he found himself in no mood to do so.

He heard Nina’s door open once again, but this wasn’t the usual time that Nina headed out to work. Julian immediately switched on the surveillance camera on his door and took a closer look.

It was Diana. She was carrying a simple duffel bag, looking ready to head out.

It wasn’t convenient for him to immediately follow her, so he called for Noel to instruct the driver outside to

take note of her movements.

The driver trailed her all the way and noticed that she had gone out to buy a bunch of items for personal defense, such as pepper spray and a police alarm. She only returned after walking around a bit more.

The short trip out made Diana feel exceedingly uneasy.

She kept sensing that there was a pair of eyes watching her from behind. She even texted Oliver to confirm that Luke was not yet released from prison. Only then did she feel calmer.
