Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 680

Chapter 680

For Diana to be able to make Julian go all out in getting hold of evidence, and then finally making a decisive move on the Channings and the Pabians...

It clearly showed his deep concern regarding her feelings for him. In fact, he was worried she couldn’t accept his explanation, and wouldn't believe how Oliver had changed into someone so conniving.

He was worried there would be a chasm in his relationship with her, that Oliver or Clifford might assume they have a hold over him by hurting her.

He even went out of his way to put up an act with her at the Pabians' residence, as if they were having a big fight.

The mighty Julian Fulcher, of all people, set aside his pride to act for the garbage that was Clifford Pabian-all for Diana’s sake.

It was completely unlike his usual self.

"It's a pity he doesn’t go into acting." Kenneth smiled as he regarded Oliver. "Don’t you agree?”

But wasn’t life nothing but a huge act?

Kenneth looked at Oliver slumped over dejectedly, and prodded him. "Don't you want that woman, Diana Winnington?"

The photo Simon snapped was clear for all to see.

Oliver had feelings for Diana.

"I’ve already decided to let her go." Oliver could sense the ill intentions in his father’s greasy words. The guilt that was already in his heart grew and festered ever more. "She should just stay with Julian and lead her life well."

This incident proved that Julian had the ability to protect Diana well.

"Oliver." It was Kenneth's first time seeing his son lacking the courage to look straight at him. He suddenly burst out laughing. 'You’re actually quite the impressive actor yourself!"

For so many years, Oliver had acted as if he had neither ambition nor desire.

As if all he wanted to do was to be a doctor and save lives.

It was all a sham!

The truth was, he had been defeated by Julian many times. At the successor training event in the past, he was unable to beat Julian despite multiple attempts. Each time, his schemes against Julian would end up failing just like they did now. He would always come close to beating, only to fumble at the last minute.

Oliver was scared.

Over the years, he kept telling himself that he didn't care for business. Even when he met Julian's woman and grew a liking for her, he had to force himself to bury his feelings and pretend to be able to let things go.

In actual fact, his ambition was still burning brightly in him.

Kenneth had seen through Oliver. Just like an old fox guiding a pup how to seize a prey, he started tempting his son. 'You still have a chance with that woman."

Something at the bottom of Oliver's heart started coming to life, growing swiftly.
