Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 978

Chapter 978

Julian furrowed his brows, and said dryly, 'To the fullest extent... What do you mean by that?"

"Marry Cecilia," Sue said. "As long as you agree to that, you can take her to your house for treatment."

Impossible!

Before coming to the Jarvis family's residence, Julian had promised Diana that he would never agree to any of their unreasonable requests. All the more he wouldn't marry Cecilia.

And yet, Sue had raised such a request using his suggestion.

Was it really right of him to decide to take care of Cecilia?

Sue saw Julian remain silent, and pressed, "Mr. Fulcher? Do you agree with that?"

"I don't." This was non-negotiable.

He had hurt Diana enough yesterday. He didn't want to do anything that would make her misunderstand him further.

Julian rejected Sue so bluntly, it embarrassed her. Her voice turned cold. "In that case, I'm sorry. We can't let you take Cecilia away."

She couldn't let her single daughter move to CoIlina Villa without the promise of marriage.

There were eyes and ears everywhere. If rumors were to start spreading, and if Cecilia didn't end up marrying Julian, it would be tough for her to find another match.

Ultimately, many wealthy families were still concerned with reputation.

While Julian had rejected Sue's suggestion and killed his idea of bringing Cecilia back to the villa, Diana entertained the notion of bringing Simon to CoIlina Villa.

That thought had been in her mind for days.

At the start, she found that idea inappropriate.

Later, she realized that Julian kept asking about Simon's condition, day in and day out. Diana couldn’t deny that Julian did care for his brother, after all.

What’s more...

She was feeling the strain from shuttling between her studio, the hospital, and the kindergarten. She didn't even have time to take care of Betty.
