Chapter 1137
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Julianâs Stand-In Wife chapter 1137 There was a deep and lingering sentiment within his eyes. Diana couldnât stop gazing into them.
She couldnât help but lament, âHaving a handsome face really works wonders. Even though you rejected my proposal, I canât stay mad when I see your face.â
âI didnât reject it,â Julian replied. He immediately knelt down on one knee.
Diana didnât have a chance to think about what he was doing. Shocked, she grabbed his arm and tried to pull him up.
â What are you doing in front of so many people?!â
Julian remained silent; he only had eyes for her. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a velvet box. Inside the box lay the priceless pink diamond.
âDiana, marry me.â
He had never refused her proposal.
In fact, it was the opposite.
Hearing her bring up the topic on her own initiative brought him immense joy.
âI canât let you propose to me first,â Julian said, his eyes even turning slightly teary. âThat would be too unfair to you.â
So, he had prepared everything for the proposal in record time.
âWhen we got married last time, I didnât formally propose to you. This time, following the traditional customs, Iâve prepared six pieces of jewelry for you. Of course, the two little ones have their gifts too.â
Julian took out the pink diamond, and continued, âHowever, this proposal is a bit hasty. But if I donât propose quickly, Iâm afraid youâll get angry, and then Iâll never find you again.â
He never wanted to endure the heart-wrenching pain he experienced three years ago again.
âDiana, marry me!â
Julian looked at her with hope and anticipation. All he needed was her agreement, and he would immediately place the ring on her finger.
Diana could see the sincerity in Julianâs eyes-but right now, they were on a busy street. She asked Julian to stand up first.
âGet up, then we can talk.â
His expression immediately dropped. âYou donât agree?â
Before Diana could respond, purple colored fireworks lit up in the distance. They burst into the sky, creating a dreamy atmosphere. They were inscribed with the words,â
Congratulations to Ms. Winnington and Mr. Fulcher on their eternal union.â
Diana was speechless.
She hadnât given her answer yet. Thanks to the fireworks, though, more and more people were gathering around.
Julianâs status and every move could potentially impact the companyâs stock price.
Diana didnât want him to randomly show himself on the street, especially not by kneeling in front of her in a public spectacle.
Thinking about their past, Dianaâs eyes welled up a bit. She sniffled, and said seriously, â A true man doesnât need to kneel.
Youâve already knelt for me so many times, and thatâs worth a hundred proposals in my heart.â
Julianâs eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he seemed to have found a glimmer of hope.
He looked at Diana anxiously, and asked, âDo you want me to propose a hundred times? If I propose a hundred times, will you say yes? Then, letâs count today as the first time.â
He began to contemplate the timing for the next proposal in all seriousness.
Diana couldnât help but chuckle at his foolish appearance. She poked his forehead playfully. âWhat are you thinking?â
However, he still didnât get up. So, Diana knelt, took the ring from his hand, and put it on her own finger right before his bewildered eyes.
âHere, youâve already got me tied down.â
In this lifetime, she belonged to him-and in death, she would still be his.
Why bother with a formal proposal?
âJulian, please get up.â
She pulled him up, and they both looked at the fireworks still blooming in the distance. Dianaâs smile was filled with happiness and radiance.
âYouâve worked hard to prepare so much in such a short time.â
This proposal was unforgettable. Most importantly, she hadnât expected that when he got out of the car at SK Mall earlier, he was actually buying a ring for her and the engagement jewelry.
The formalities he had gone through felt more significant than their first marriage.
Diana felt satisfied, and her smile conveyed her contentment.
