Chapter 1092
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Chapter 1092 âYeah,â Vans said.
âHumidity and moisture are eczemaâs best friends.
Some childrenâs eczema conditions flare up during deep winters and intense summers.â Julian turned silent at Vansâs words.
Vans couldn't help but tease him.
âWhy doI seem to know more about your son than you do?â Julian glared at him, effectively shutting him up.
âTâve said enough,â Vans said, waving his hand.
He didnât understand what Julian was thinking.
Julian didn't care about Diana and Sean, right? Yet, he insisted on coming over to help with their clogged bathtub the moment he heard about it.
He even said that hiring a plumber would be a waste of time.
Was it really? Getting a plumber to their door and solve the problem was just one phone call away, and cost only a bit of money.
Yet, Julian insisted on doing it himself.
Perhaps...
He just wanted to do something for them with his own hands.
However, he didnât want them to know about it.
He also forbade Vans to tell them about it.
He really was a contradictory person.
Vans couldnât stand it any longer.
âIâm so glad Iâm not as stiff as you are.â âPm not stiff.
Diana and Sean just donât want to see me,â Julian retorted.
Vans refuted his claim.
âIf so, why did they head out to find you?â âThey werenât looking for me,â Julian said, not wanting to continue the conversation any further.
His face was already dark with displeasure.
âThey were already heading out,â he said as he looked at Vans.
â Didnât you say that they wanted to buy fresh flowers and go to the cemetery?â Vansâs face was now stormy.
Julian was clearly not a fool, given his ability to grow Fulcher Inc.
to its current scale.
He clearly understood the current situation, too.
Yet, why did he refuse to admit that Diana and Sean wanted to see him? âYou just donât have the guts to see them!â Vans yelled.
That was his ultimate conclusion.
âwhat right do I have to see her?!â Julian glared at him, jaw hard as stone and sharp as a knife.
He was furious now.
Vans wanted to say more, but the look on Julianâs face told him that nothing he said would convince the latter otherwise.
In the end, he decided to keep silent.
He took a deep breath to calm himself down, then continued telling Julian about the bathtub.
âBathing in honeysuckle can help prevent and alleviate eczema.
This is a good method.â It was something many parents for their children.
Japanese honeysuckle were also packaged and sold online.
These sachets could be put in a bucket or a tub, which was then filled with water for children to soak in.
The method proved to bea great help to children with eczema.
âThe bathtub was clogged because the Japanese honeysuckle stalks got out the sachet.
Diana thought they were tiny enough to be flushed away.
She didnât expect the tub to be so clogged that water canât flow through.
The water in the tub finally emptied out at three in the morning,â Vans said.
Julian nodded.
He first twisted the drain stopper open.
He shone a torchlight in it, and said, âNo wonder the water flows out slowly.
The inside is completely clogged.â It was filled with honeysuckle stalks.
Vans was inexperienced with handyman work.
âWhat should we do?â âGrab me a chopstick,â Julian said, appearing very experienced with such things.
âIn the past, Dianaâs hair would often clog the tub.
Sometimes, as it accumulates, itâd eventually clog the whole drainage system.â Such trivial and mundane issues were a daily affair.
Oftentimes, one would suddenly realize that the water wasnât draining out halfway through a bath.
It was either a stuck pipe or drain.
During such times, it wouldnât be convenient to call for a plumber.
As much as Albert the butler knew the ins and outs of the house, Julian never allowed him into Dianaâs bathroom.
He always did it himself.
And then...
