Chapter 1113
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Diana was at a loss over how to explain things to Sean, when she suddenly felt a strong gust of cold winter wind coming at her, making her shiver involuntarily.
At that moment, the chill she felt from her surroundings was suddenly replaced by a warm embrace from a broad shoulders.
She felt as if she had dropped into a furnace.
She looked up into a pair of familiar eyes.
âJulianâ¦â She was shocked and surprised, and comforted by his appearance. âYou really came.â
âSilly. Would I ever lie to you?â
He lifted her high up, just as he did on their wedding night. He held her waist tight, as if wanting to melt her into his body.
He missed her terribly.
Diana missed him, too.
Still, now wasnât the time for them to express their love for each other. Diana jabbed Julianâs shoulder shyly and whispered, âSeanâ¦â
Sean was stunned.
He had never seen Daddy and Mommy hugging each other like this before.
Daddy had appeared out of the blue, lifting Mommy high up in the air.
Although both of them were smiling, Sean looked very solemn.
Julian crouched, wanting to speak to his son and carry him in his arms. However, Sean took a step back and said to Julian seriously, âDonât do that again next time.â
Julian and Diana exchanged glances.
Right now, they looked more like children than Sean, who for some reason appeared more like an adult. They stared blankly at him.
Sean was doubtful, but he decided to be firm in expressing his own thoughts. He tried to imitate what Julian did just now when he lifted Diana high up and even twirled her around.
âItâs dangerous,â he said.
There were so many people around. What if Mommy fell down?
Julian and Diana were stunned into silence.
Why did Diana suddenly find her son so iron-straight?
She was right.
Diana would never be able to forget this scene until very long later, when Sean grew to become slightly taller than Julian.
Seanâ¦
Was too much of a straight man that he didnât understand romance. He would end up being badly teased by Diana and Betty for that.
However, there would be a girl who adored him for it.
Perhaps that was what a perfect match looked like. People would end up finding their perfect match and living their best lives with each other.
However, that would be a story for another day.
Diana and Julian looked at the solemn and tense expression on their sonâs face, filled with mixed feelings.
Diana couldnât help but pinch her sonâs cheeks. âSean, Daddyâs here. Didnât you say that you missed him? Why donât you come closer to Daddy?â
With that, Julian stepped forward again, stretched his arms out, and carried Sean up. Thankfully, this time, Sean didnât reject him.
Yet his face remained solemn, his eyes shifting left and right as if thinking of something. It was only until they went upstairs back into the apartment that Diana found out what Sean was thinking of.
âWill you still bully Mommy?â he asked Julian.
Julian was stunned by Seanâs question. âMe? Bully Mommy? When did I do so?â
He didnât even care about the Jarvises.
The moment he sensed that Diana was indignant, his heart would ache until he felt he was about to die.
How could he possibly bully her?
If anything, Diana was the one who had an utter hold over him.
Sean said seriously, âFrom now on, youâre not allowed to hug Mommy.â
He had a niggling feeling that Daddy was a dangerous man. The look in Daddyâs eyes whenever he looked at Mommy and his actions resembled the wolf Sean saw on Discovery Channel.
And Mommyâ¦
Was the rabbit that got torn apart heartlessly by that wolf.
