Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 71

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 71

From the moment Julian barged in, the first thing he did was to hold Kayla. He was very protective of her, and he even escorted her outside to receive treatment. Ever since he started ignoring Diana, she had stopped feeling any pain.

Now… It hurt even less.

Diana could only feel a numb sensation spreading throughout her body. For some unknown reason, even her scalp felt numb.

She once had a nightmare that Julian hurt the baby in her stomach; that he wanted to take the baby’s life. When she woke up from the nightmare, she thought it was impossible. Now, it didn’t seem impossible at all!

However, Julian never intended to harm the embryo.

Instead, he took direct measures to prevent Diana from ever getting pregnant.

How was this different from the nightmare where he demanded someone else to get rid of the baby in her stomach?

He didn’t want the baby. He didn’t love her, and he was merciless!

Was there any point in telling him about Kayla wanting to hurt her?

No.

Diana knew Julian wouldn’t believe her.

Even now, he wanted to personally deal with Luke despite getting himself hurt. Diana thought it probably had nothing to do with her.

In fact, he might have only made it in time thanks to Kayla.

Diana felt weak in her legs. She couldn’t think anymore. All she could feel was terrible numbness. Her entire body felt numb. She leaned against the pillar behind her and slowly slid downward, exhausted.

“Diana.” Oliver saw her zoning out and couldn’t resist handing her a tissue. “Are you alright?”

She looked up. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Oliver was deeply worried to see this. “Diana, wipe your tears away.”

“Tears? Am I crying?” Diana asked blankly.

She didn’t even blink. Why would she be crying?

She was clearly very strong. Why would she cry?

She knew he no longer loved her, but why… Why couldn’t she move her limbs?

“Diana, try to relax.” Oliver couldn’t stop worrying. He moved a little closer and checked her eyes. After that, he suddenly became nervous. His voice grew louder. “Look at me! Look at me!”

Tears were still rolling down her cheeks. Diana’s eyes were wide open. She opened her mouth and tried to say something to Oliver.
