Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 861

“He even said I couldn’t get him even if I wanted to. Well, I don’t even want him in the first place!”

“Cough, cough…” Nina pulled Diana’s shirt. “Err, Diana…”

“Don’t pull me.” Diana pushed Nina’s hand away, and continued complaining as she cleaned the house. “Don’t you think so too? His face looks like an ice mountain, so hard and cold and stubborn.

Where did he get that confidence to say that I’m into him?

My career’s doing much better than before, and I survived the challenging days of raising my children all by myself. I’m looking forward to better days ahead.

Why would I spend my day thinking of such a cold and stubborn old man?”

The thought almost made Diana laugh.

“No way, no way,” she said between giggles. “It’s impossible between us.”

The moment she said that, she heard someone reply through gritted teeth, “It better be that way.”

At once, Diana jumped in fright and looked up. “Why are you still around?”

Hadn’t he left already?

Where was Nina?

Julian saw through Diana’s thoughts. “She hasn’t come clean about how she tricked Vans into stealing my toothbrush, so she scurried away like a rat.”

He didn’t need to say anything for Nina to slink away guiltily.

“I’m here to give you this,” Julian said. He reluctantly took out a bracelet.

This was something Sean had worn since he was one month old.

The bracelet had a clover charm with the word “lucky” carved on it. Conversely, Betty’s bracelet had a little lock charm.

It seemed her son wanted to leave a memento behind.

The smile on Diana’s face deepened. She immediately stood up to take the bracelet, as if her unhappiness had all but disappeared.

Before she could take it, Julian flung it on the couch. The little bracelet disappeared without a trace.

Diana glared at him, seething.

Julian was indifferent. “Look for it yourself.”
