Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87

In three weeks…

Another three more weeks, and she need not kick him away or be put in a difficult spot. He would leave her even quicker than she wanted him to.

When that time comes, Julian Fulcher wouldn’t exist in her world anymore.

Diana buried her face in the pillow, silently rubbing away the tears in her eyes.

She wanted this to be the last time she cried for him.

It would also be the last time she remembered all the good things about him.

In less than five minutes‘ time, Julian returned to her room once again. Diana felt the side of her bed sink down, and felt him pulling an additional sheet up her body. “The weather turned chilly today. Your hands and feet turn cold easily at night.”

He used to always put her feet on his body, but now…

“Cover yourself with more sheets. It’ll make you feel warmer.”

“Okay, thank you.” She clenched her fists tighter and refused to turn to look at him.

Julian stood right where he was. “I’ll be off, then?”

“Okay.” Diana’s voice was sullen. Her cold feet felt like ice and she shrunk them back into the depths of the sheets. Julian could tell that she was trying to warm herself up.

“You need to learn to take good care of yourself.” Julian rubbed his nose, trying to stop himself from stepping forward and helping her warm her feet. Instead, he turned around and left the ward.

She wasn’t the woman he was in love with. The longer he was with Diana, the more he wanted to tease her.

However, he knew that wasn’t fair to Diana at all.

It was better for him to avoid her and go to Kayla instead. That was what he should do.
