Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 796

Julian saw Sean looking him straight in the eyes, and knew that he had said something wrong.

When it came to Diana and these two kids, he had experienced many firsts in his life with them.

For example, right now, it was his first time lying and feeling so lost and uncertain about how to respond to someone else’s question.

He hemmed and hawed for a few moments before finally saying lamely, “She’s just not awake yet.”

Sean was still a child after all, and didn’t think things too complicatedly.

He didn’t doubt Julian’s words.

But he, along with his sister, did feel indignant.

His usually cool face cracked under the pressure, as if a fissure had formed in a mountain. “I want to video call Mommy.”

This was the first time he and Betty were away from Mommy.

Didn’t Mommy miss them?

Or did Mommy no longer want them both?

Sean started panicking, and his eyes turned red.

Julian was used to seeing Betty crying and kicking up a fuss, but it was his first time seeing Sean like this.

He felt remorseful and guilty, wishing he could cut off this stupid and dull tongue of his.

“She can’t video call you now,” Julian said helplessly.

Sean’s tears rolled down his cheeks.

In the end, he didn’t continue crying.

However, the indignation in his eyes was clear for all to see.

Julian panicked.

He had to tend to the other after settling one, and his head started to pound. “Sean, are you alright?”

He began to regret not waiting for Diana and returning together with her.

How was he going to deal with this situation?

Sean remained silent.

He was always prone to keeping his feelings to himself. All the more he wouldn’t pour his feelings out to Julian.

Betty knew her brother very well, and she cried even harder upon seeing her brother like that.

“Mommy doesn’t want us anymore,” she sobbed as she said to Julian. “She…doesn’t seem to want us anymore? Boo…boo hoo…”
