Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 767

“How could such parents exist in this world?” Diana asked, shocked.

Simon looked at her helplessly and said, “It’s possible. And you were ‘lucky’ enough to meet them. I’ve never mentioned these to you before because they aren’t exactly happy memories.”

He sighed. “I’m sorry, I actually knew you before you lost your memories. It’s just… Your story of coming to Richburgh in search of your kin was too tragic, so I didn’t want to tell you all over again.”

Diana trusted Simon’s lie-ridden story with all her heart.

“No wonder you gave me the name Diana Winnginton.” As it turned out, that was her real name.

That fact alone was enough to convince her that Simon didn’t deliberately hide the truth from her.

A pity that her real parents weren’t happy with her existence. Simon didn’t need to fear that her parents would be looking for her even though she had the same name.

Come to think of it, losing one’s memory wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. At the very least, one would forget those unhappy memories that weren’t worth recollecting.

But…

A flame of hope rekindled in her heart. “Since you knew me before I lost my memories, do you know who the father of the babies is?”

Simon’s face changed. The next moment, he shook his head. “I wasn’t very close to you before.”

That wasn’t exactly a lie.

In the past, she didn’t give him many opportunities to interact with her.

Diana asked casually, “So why does Julian keep saying those strange things to me?” He would even behave overly-intimately at times.

Diana didn’t dare to say the latter statement, for fear it would hurt her relationship with Simon.

However, Simon could guess what was on her mind.

“It’s fine. He probably just treats you as your sister, Kayla,” Simon continued lying through his teeth to deliberately mislead Diana. “He loves Kayla, but it was a pity that she did something wrong and had to go to jail… Ever since then, my brother has become slightly off and would behave inappropriately each time he sees a woman who bears some sort of resemblance with Kayla.”

He smiled apologetically. “That’s why I never mentioned it to you.”

So, Julian had merely taken Diana as a replacement.

He was a dedicated man, though.

Diana smiled with relief. “Did Kayla and I…share a good relationship?”

The thought of her having a sibling like Betty and Sean had each other made her rather glad.
