Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 862

“Sir.”

“Yes?”

“Women need to be coaxed.”

“Coaxed?” Julian didn’t understand. “Coax who?”

Which woman was worthy of such effort?

“Grandma isn’t around anymore, and Di…” He paused for a moment before continuing viciously, “Do as I say and treat Diana Winnington like she’s dead.”

Since their reunion, Julian knew Diana was no longer the same Diana he knew.

He didn’t have a place in her heart. She would even criticize him harshly.

Mrs. Lay disagreed with him.

To her, Julian was being too harsh.

But before she could persuade him, he spoke first. “Mrs. Lay, if you gave birth, could you possibly not know who the biological father of your children is?”

Mrs. Lay shook her head, stunned by Julian’s question. “No.”

Julian said, “But that’s what happened to Diana.”

He acknowledged that she was a good mother, but it didn’t mean he approved of her actions.

If she hadn’t deliberately hid the truth from him, he would have reunited with his children much earlier. He wouldn’t take so long to realize that the twins were his flesh and blood.

He wouldn’t even need to be apart from them in the first place.

Diana was the one who stripped him of his right to be with his children over the past three years.

Rather than believing that she had come clean about the twins’ origins and made peace with him because of her conscience, he would rather believe that her and Simon’s relationship had gone wrong.

That was the only reason for her to think of him.

“Don’t forget. She wanted to be my sister-in-law before. A week ago, she was acting right here—pretending to suffer from heat stroke,” he said.

A drama queen had no right to expect people to believe her.

Mrs. Lay felt sensed something was wrong.

However, she couldn’t say anything when faced with Julian’s icy expression.

She could only do as she was told, and not take any liberties.

Right after Julian decided to ban Diana from entering the villa, Diana came calling the very next day.
