Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 964

Chapter 964

At the Jarvis family's residence, Julian had been waiting in the living room for a while.

He was rather distracted when he appeared before them. The uneasy feeling lurking in his heart was at its peak.

He couldn't be calm when he thought about things on Diana's end. He was about to call her to ask about the situation, when Sue walked toward him. Sorrow was etched on her face.

When she saw Julian, a mix of hatred and hope filled her eyes. She cried, "Mr. Fulcher, I'm begging you!"

Before she went further, she bowed at Julian.

He had no choice but to keep his phone in his pocket for the time being.

He helped Sue to her feet, and asked, "Why exactly did you call me here today? Where is Cecilia?"

"She..." The mention of Cecilia deepened the sorrow on Sue's face. "You'd better take a look upstairs."

A bad feeling rose in Julian's chest. "Where is she?"

"On the second floor." Sue composed herself before going on, "Come with me."

As they walked, Julian noticed pink diamonds scattered along the way, each a few steps apart. They formed a route

leading all the way to Cecilia's room.

Sue saw the doubt in his eyes, and nodded at him. "That’s from the necklace you sent to her before."

Cecilia had undone the diamonds on the necklace, one by one, and placed them like this on the second floor.

"When she came back from the studio, she did that to the necklace and refused to let anyone else touch it. Even our housekeepers have to avoid the diamonds carefully when they clean the house."

Sue sighed. "We ourselves want to know what exactly happened that day. Cecilia has been behaving...so strangely since then."

Julian looked at the pink diamonds, and immediately told Sue what he had heard from Diana.

"I was anxious that day. I really shouldn't have splashed the paint on her."

There were a hundred other ways he could use to dash Cecilia's hopes for him. Yet, of all ways, he chose the most direct, most brutal, and most hurtful way.

"That day was my children's death..."

"Julian Fulcher!" Sue screamed.
