Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 885

Right now, thoughts about him that Diana shouldn’t be having were creeping into her mind—more frequently than they should be.

The best thing to do was to nip them in the bud.

After pondering over it for a moment, Diana made up her mind. She looked at Cecilia, and chased after the latter.

“Ms. Jarvis, please don’t misunderstand! There’s nothing between Mr. Fulcher and me! He told you the truth. We’re staying together purely for the twins,” she explained.

Then, she pulled out her design draft and showed it to Cecilia. She showed Cecilia the photo of the finished dress.

“Look, this is the custom-made dress Mr. Fulcher paid for you. He pesters me about it every day, and I was rushing it out the entire day in my studio.”

The beauty of the dress took Cecilia’s breath away. Her excitement grew the more she listened to Diana. “Is that so?”

“I need one more week,” Diana said. “Come to my studio and try out the dress. Julian said that he’ll be there, and that he won’t miss such a beautiful moment.”

Diana’s words were rather exaggerated. Cecilia began doubting her.

“Did he really say that?”

“Of course!” Diana suppressed the guilt in her heart and went on, “You’ll know if that’s true a week later.”

If she lied, Julian wouldn’t appear in the studio. If she spoke the truth, Julian would surely appear in the studio, bright and early.

It was just a week.

Cecilia was willing to wait.

She nodded, and said to Diana, “Thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve thought that Mr. Fulcher didn’t like me anymore…”

Diana recalled Nina’s words, and commented, “Nonsense! He’s just cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He’s stubborn and has a sharp tongue.”

Cecilia nodded again. In truth, she found their relationship slightly awkward.

“You’re Mr. Fulcher’s ex-wife and the mother of his children. If I were to…” she said shyly, “if I were to be with Julian, won’t you get angry and jealous?”
