Chapter 1132
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Julianâs Stand-In Wife chapter 1132-When Diana came out, Julian was leaning against the car, smoking.
The flickering flames accentuated his exquisite features, making him look just as captivating as the first time they met.
However, it had already been more than six years since that first encounter.
Even though they had gone around in circles, they finally ended up together.
Diana quickened her pace and walked toward him. Julian heard her approaching and quickly lifted his head, extinguishing the cigarette near him.
Then, he changed into a different coat to get rid of the smoke smell. He didnât want her to inhale the smoke smell.
At the same time, he approached Diana.
He turned her around, examining her. âHow did it go? Youâre not injured, right?â
âOf course not.â Diana saw how nervous he was, and couldnât help but laugh heartily. âItâs all settled.
From now on, your engagement with Cecilia is invalid. We can be together openly and without any hindrance.â
She stretched her arms towards him, indicating that she wanted a hug. âJulian, am I amazing?â
Julian chuckled softly, unable to resist ruffling her hair. âYou are.â
He didnât hug her, and he didnât seem as happy as Diana had expected.
She tugged at his sleeve. âWhatâs wrong with you? Arenât you happy about ending the engagement?â
Julianâs eyes revealed a hint of sadness. âItâs not that. You shouldnât have been the one to handle the annulment of the engagement.â
He knew how stubborn Sue was about this marriage. Even if Diana had returned unscathed, she would have definitely suffered emotionally.
Letting a woman stand in the front lines was something a man shouldnât ever allow. That was what Julian felt.
âWhat are you thinking about?â Diana took the initiative to hold his hand, and walked with him towards the car.
The Jarvis residence faded into the distance as they left it behind, and Dianaâs heart grew lighter. She leaned against Julianâs shoulder, feeling a sense of comfort that she had never felt before.
âIf you had confronted them, Sue would never agree. I also donât want you to get involved with the Jarvis family again, just because of this annulment.â
As Diana spoke, her tone became considerably more serious. âIâll get jealous.â
Her eyes sparkled.
âIâm serious, you know? If you had to spend another day with the Jarvis family, I wouldnât be able to bear it. Maybe Iâll even decide that I donât want you anymore.â
Julian was amused by her solemn tone. âI must have misunderstood you.â
âHow so?â
âI didnât realize you were a woman whoâd deny knowing someone once you got what you wanted from them.â
Diana was speechless. She cleared her throat awkwardly to avoid answering.
Well, last night, she really hadnât been thinking about anything. She just wanted to succumb to the power Julian provided and drift to the ends of the world with him. But after waking up today, her rationality gradually returned.
If the engagement between Julian and Cecilia couldnât be dissolved, how could she be at peace with herself while staying with him?
Seanâs vigilance against Julian would also grow stronger. It was uncertain whether Sean would acknowledge this man as his father in the future.
Fortunately, everything was settled.
Julian and Ceciliaâs engagement was finally annulled. Everything was back on track.
âIâm not denying it, okay?â
Diana lay on his chest and listening to his strong heartbeat. She wrapped her arms around his waist, and laughed wholeheartedly.
âPlease, Mr. Fulcher. Rest assured that Iâll always be your wife!â
At first, Julian didnât react much to this statement. After a few more seconds, he wasnât so composed anymore. He felt somewhat nervous-something he hadnât experienced in a long time.
âWhat did you just say?â
Diana saw astonishment in his expression, together with disbelief and restrained joy. Julian seemed to be treating Diana like fragile porcelain; as if speaking a little louder would shatter her.
This feeling of being cherished⦠It had never changed.
Since their marriage began, he had always treated her this way. Whether it was Kayla or Cecilia, they were just some minor bumps in their life.
Julian had always cherished Diana.
Diana lay on his chest, and her laughter synchronized with the rhythm of his heartbeat.
âI said, Iâm your forever your wife-Mrs. Fulcher.â
