Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 850

Julian's fingers brushed against her neck as they combed through her scalp.

That day in her studio's dressing room, his breath was just like the hot air from the hairdryer, spraying forcefully all over her skin.

Diana wriggled her shoulders.

Julian’s hold on her became gentler.

She dared not move at all.

When her hair was almost dry, Julian suddenly said, "Before, I used to blow-dry your hair. I was also a jerk. Seeing your hair wet like this makes me uncomfortable."

His self-deprecating words softened his harsh demeanor.

She could feel the tenderness from his fingertips lingering on her scalp.

Diana couldn't help but glance at him. "Julian…?"

"Hmm?"

"Why did we get divorced before?"

This woman was just like muddy ground; if he gave her a little leeway, she would climb along the pole.

Julian put away the hairdryer immediately. "Have you become addicted to acting?"

Diana choked.

She had just remembered.

He didn’t believe she had amnesia.

If it were in the past, she would have definitely argued with him.

But today, she couldn't refute his sarcastic remark—not after she had pretended to be sick.

She could only move on, and act as if she hadn't asked anything.

She shouldn't have asked.

He already had Cecilia and his new life. Her visit today was already impolite; there was no need to drag him into the past again.

She was the only one who wanted to recover her lost memories.
