Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88

To be able to see Kayla’s smile and make her happy every day was a dream Julian wanted to fulfil the moment he recognized Kayla as the one who saved him when he was a child.

Aside from himself, no one knew that the Julian Fulcher of that night was seeking death.

However, that was also the first time he truly felt like there was someone in this world who was willing to risk her life for him.

Strangers they may be….

It was a beautiful moment he wanted to guard with his life, and also a kind heart that he wanted to protect with all he had.

Thankfully, things never changed even after Kayla grew up.

She remained gentle, kind, and genuine, and was always caring toward Diana.

Yet during those three years when Kayla disappeared, Julian began a relationship with Diana when he shouldn’t have.

In the process, treating Diana well became a habit he cultivated.

Unfortunately, Diana knew nothing.

She mistook it all for true love.

She even thought that her experience was a once–in–a–lifetime romance, just like what champagne roses

meant.

It was why she felt so angry and helpless upon discovering that Julian fancied another woman.

But just now, when she asked him about the child, she clearly sensed that he was lying and that he had never considered things from her perspective. Despite that, she couldn’t help but greedily take in the paltry warmth he offered. She almost forgot all the pain he brought to her, just for the sake of his lie: “I want to see you happy.”

That itself made her happy.

Julian saw the tears welling up in her eyes and a silly smile hanging on her lips, and couldn’t hold back a

smile.

Very soon, a thought popped up in his head. Without realizing it, he asked, “Do you think Kayla will be happy knowing how I’m treating you?”

Kayla was clearly indignant when he left her today.

“I like Kayla,” he emphasized even before Diana responded to his question. “I really like her.”
