Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 806

The look on her face was the same as the look of enjoyment on Betty’s face when she ate the dumplings.

Betty certainly loved the dumplings.

Julian pulled Diana, who was still standing there awkwardly, to a chair and sat her down.

She was in such a daze that she didn’t resist him drawing near her.

By the time she snapped back to attention, everyone was already eagerly preparing for the meal to begin.

If she were to bring up how he touched her shoulders, it might seem overly pretentious.

As such, she pretended nothing happened and stood up, saying, “I’ll go wash my hands.”

“No need for that,” Julian said as he brought a wash basin over. “You shouldn’t be moving your arm at all. Just wash them here.”

It wasn’t like she had broken her legs.

“I’ll just go to the washroom.”

With that, she stood up and headed to the washroom.

She left Julian standing all alone with the basin in his hand, looking disappointed.

Don’t turn back.

Don’t turn back.

Diana chanted to herself, as if trying to hypnotize herself.

This man’s face was simply too mesmerizing.

Coupled with his thoughtful actions, he always gave her the wrong idea that he might like her.

But…

She looked up at her reflection in the mirror.

That would be impossible.

Her entire body was swollen.

Even her brain seemed to be swollen, as her recent behavior has all been a mess out of concern for her twins.

How could a woman like her, in her current state, attract Julian Fulcher?

Rather than liking her, Diana would rather believe that he liked her children and that he wanted to snatch them away from her.

The thought made every single cell in Diana’s body awake and alert.

She cupped her right hand with water and splashed it on her face.

“Come on, pull yourself together!” she told herself.
