Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 665

Now that Diana was here, she could do nothing about it. All she could do was hope that Julian would return to Richburgh as quickly as possible.

Just the thought of him being so far away dimmed her heart. Even her eyes lost their brilliance.

Simon sensed it. He found the long silence uncomfortable, and muttered, "Don't worry. No one will hurt you."

Diana shot him an unexpected look, which annoyed him. "What are you looking at?! If you keep looking, I'll tear off your ears!"

His sudden aggressiveness took Diana aback. She truly couldn't understand the twisted thought process of this little freak. Still, it seemed he had no intention of hurting her. With that in mind, she followed him inside.

After the incident with Luke, the Pabian family moved away. They were undoubtedly too afraid to linger under Julian's watchful eye, so they took the initiative to move to the outskirts, far away from the city center of Richburgh.

The area was more spacious, precisely because it was remote.

However, the Pabian family residence was rather small. The European-style villa only had three floors, with three rooms on each floor. It seemed not many people lived here.

After Diana entered, she realized it wasn’t that there were a few people living there—rather, Clifford was the villa’s only residence!

To think he moved out from the city center all by himself.

"Where are the rest of the Pabians?"

Simon deliberately asked, "Are you referring to Luke?" He shrugged casually. "He's dead."

Of course Diana knew he was dead! And it was all because he lusted after her and got dealt with personally by Clifford.

The revelation made her all the more anxious.

Didn't that mean...that Clifford was equivalent to a murderer?

Was she now a guest in the lair of a murderer? And this murderer had a grudge against her, too...

The more she thought about it, the worse she felt. She silently repeated Julian's name in her mind a hundred times, and her face finally regained some composure.

But because she had repeated it so many times in her mind, she slipped up and said it out loud. "Julian."

Simon was startled to hear her calling Julian's name. Coldness spread through him, and he hissed through his teeth, "Do you miss him that much? Is he all you think about?"
