Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 661

Julian naturally had a way to bring the plummeted stocks back up. But who exactly was the person behind the scenes causing trouble, and how far did this troublemaker's reach extend in Fulcher Inc.?

...

With the year end approaching, Diana hadn't received many orders so the studio was relatively idle. Julian wasn’t at home as well. With nothing to do, she decided to have the driver and the bodyguard take her to the mall for a bit of shopping.

Last time she went out, she had forgotten to buy lucky charm decorations.

She told herself that this year, she needed to buy more lucky charms to place around the house in hopes they would ward off the year's misfortune.

Holding up the lucky charm decorations, she sensed she could foresee a future of happiness. The thought brought a joyful smile to her face.

Today, Diana was wearing a single-velvet long coat and pants. It was loose in style but not bulky, instead accentuating her gentle and slender figure. She looked as if she had stepped out of a fairytale, and her appearance drew a lot of attention when she stood in front of the shelves.

After getting kidnapped last time, she had developed the habit of having bodyguards with her at all times.

Now, she didn't mind being seen.

Yet as she stepped out of the supermarket, holding her purchases and waiting for the driver to open the car door for her, somebody suddenly pulled her arm.

It was Simon Channing!

The beauty mark beneath his eye was his trademark. The moment Diana saw it, warning alarms blared inside her.

"Why are you here?"

The last time Diana parted ways with Oliver at the hotel, she had told him about her encounter with Simon and requested that he have a talk with Simon about it.

But now, here he was again!

"Who were you expecting? Julian?" Simon asked, a sinister undertone in his words.

Diana sensed the hostility in the air and remained silent. She saw Simon's smirk, and his fan moved around in his hand, as if he was playing with her.

It felt as if he was being handsy with her.
