Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 837

Julian and the rest probably wouldn’t even know of her whereabouts had she not suddenly returned to Richburgh for the sake of her twins’ schooling arrangements.

Julian was all-powerful.

He couldn’t possibly not receive any news about her, unless someone was deliberately clamping down on the news.

What role did Simon play in hiding her whereabouts?

Diana had no idea.

That was why she needed an answer from Simon.

Diana’s question made Simon’s rapidly beating heart return to normal.

The hypnotizer responsible for Diana’s memory loss did not lie to him.

As long as Diana didn’t get hypnotized by him again, Diana would never be able to restore her memories.

No matter how strong the natural or man-made stimulus was, it was useless.

Diana was asking him that only because she had come into contact with more people upon returning to Richburgh. Apparently, she managed to piece together some pieces of the puzzle of her past from their words.

Otherwise, she couldn’t possibly be asking him for the reason she left Julian three years ago.

What was the truth?

The truth was that she was willing to do anything for Julian Fulcher!

But Simon would never tell her that.

He turned solemn, composing himself, and looked straight into Diana’s eyes. “I have no idea. I wasn’t very close to you three years ago.”

His lips were completely sealed.

Diana knew that her attempt at probing for the truth had failed.

Yet, she refused to admit defeat. “Simon, I’ve always regarded you as someone very important in my life. I really hope you’re not lying to me.”

“Since when have I ever lied to you?” Simon asked. “I just don’t think there’s a need for you to know about your memories. Some people are nasty, and so are some memories. Isn’t it good to forget them all?”

“Does that include me once being married to Julian?”

Simon’s grip on the handrails tightened.

He didn’t expect Diana to know about that.

“Julian is your brother. I was once…” Diana took a deep breath. “Your sister-in-law.”
