Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 683

Oliver’s heart hardened with determination.

He looked calmly at Julian, with no intention of stopping the latter from recording their conversation.

He knew that any struggle would simply be in vain.

Diana probably sensed his real character by now.

The thought made Julian’s lips arch in a smile. His fingers landed on the chair with self-assured confidence. “Are you here to apologize, or to plead for me to show the Channings mercy?”

“Neither.”

Oliver knew Julian. Even if he were to plead with him, Julian would never agree to it.

It was because he had made a move on Diana.

Julian would never let it go.

“I admit defeat,” Oliver said. “I lost to you this time, and I’m willing to bear the consequences. As for an apology…” He paused for a moment, as conflict flashed past his eyes. “Even if I were to apologize, it wouldn’t be for this.”

He had figured things out.

Anyone had the right to pursue happiness and ambitions.

How could he give up on what he wanted, just because he shared a past with Julian?

No matter from the angle he looked at the issue from, Oliver had used Diana to scheme against Julian because he wanted to fight for what he wanted.

Julian never expected him to be so shameless.

He was about to flare up when Oliver said something even more infuriating. “But I still wish to apologize.”

Julian’s anger was mildly appeased, and for the first time, couldn’t figure out what tricks Oliver was hiding up his sleeves.

The next moment, the urge to hit someone arose swiftly in his chest.

Because Oliver said, “I apologize only for breaking my promise.”

When did he break his promise?

“I shouldn’t have pretended to have let things go and given you my blessings at the hospital. I shouldn’t have claimed that I’ve let go of my feelings for her.” He took a deep breath, and fixed his gaze firmly on Julian without any intention of retreating. “In actual fact, I can’t let her go.”

He finally added, “I still want her.”

Whoosh!
