Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 709

Wasn’t it disrespectful of him to pull out the card from her phone?

Diana stared at him, a slight annoyance in her eyes, as she took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Julian, my life can’t possibly consist of you alone.”

It was just an ordinary statement.

However, it sent Julian’s keen senses into overdrive. He looked at her in disbelief, “Are you giving up on me just because of a phone card?”

Diana was baffled. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

She just didn’t want him being so overbearing.

She had done so much and worked so hard in running her work studio. She had rebuilt her own career and expanded her network just so that she could earn the ability to stand side by side with Julian and be seen as his equal.

As much as she knew that her achievements were nothing compared to his.

All along, she had been working so hard to achieve equality and respect in their relationship so things could be sustainable between them.

But right now, him pulling out the card from her phone made her face up to reality.

Julian…

Was still so overbearing.

He hadn’t changed one bit.

If what happened with Kayla were to repeat itself, they might not do better than before.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t get so jealous just because of one phone call.

“Give me a chance to explain things.” Despite realizing the state of reality between them, Diana couldn’t bear to fight with him and sour the mood between them since it was his birthday.

She was trying her best to control her emotions. “I’ll give you a clear explanation regarding New Years’ Eve and Simon Channing, but you must give me my phone card back.”

This was a show of respect to her.

“No need for that.” He had flung the phone card into the trash can. If he had to pick it out from the trash and clean it…

That act alone made him, a clean freak, shudder in disgust.

Still, if it was Diana’s request, he would overcome his preferences.

But since he was in a hurry to leave, he said, “I’ll get Noel to prepare a new card for you. He’ll do it soon.”
