Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 676

Diana started to panic. She grabbed the corner of the suit, and hurried to move.

Yet Julian held on to it even more tightly, wrapping both of them in a tight embrace.

Diana didn’t understand why he was acting this way. “Julian!”

She looked at him, and her voice was trembling as she stammered, “Nina…Nina’s scalp got torn off! She needs me right now! I have to…”

She had to protect Nina!

Only by doing that would make her feel better.

Julian understood where she was coming from. Despite that, he said quietly, “She doesn’t need you now, Diana. She needs Vans.”

Diana looked like she was struck by something. When realization dawned upon her, she finally calmed down and stopped struggling.

Julian looked at her, and his heart ached. “Your face…”

He never expected Lina to slap Diana.

How could Lina have the nerve to slap the woman he cherished so dearly and cared for so carefully?

At that moment, Julian wished for nothing more than the complete annihilation of the entire Jennings family—as if that was the only way he could vent the anger burning in him.

As if influenced by the fury he exuded, Diana finally realized that Nina wasn’t the only one hurt by the incident. She was as much of a victim as Nina was.

What’s more, Julian was gazing at her with such deep affection.

Ouch…!

The heartbreaking look in his eyes inevitably made her yelp, as the pain from the slap earlier finally registered to her.

Julian’s heart ached deeper to see it. When he spoke, it was in a voice that told of a storm brewing inside him.

“Don’t you worry.” He looked at Diana, his eyes piercing. “When the lights went out just now, Vans slapped Lina back ten times. If it weren’t because he needed more time to tear off the hair on her head, my anger wouldn’t be appeased even if he slapped her a hundred times!”

Diana was stunned. “You two were behind the black out?”
