Chapter 1138

Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1138 Julian smiled along with Diana. Tracing back his earlier thoughts, he said, “It was a bit rough around the edges.”

He wasn’t entirely satisfied with this proposal.

“When we have the chance, I’ll formally propose to you again.

“What? Are you looking forward to us separating again?” Diana retorted.

Julian grew anxious. “No, that’s not what I meant!”

Diana had never seen him so nervous and anxious before.

She chuckled, and then laughed heartily. “Considering how big and beautiful this ring is, I’ll forgive you.”

Julian immediately sighed in relief, and replied quickly,” Thank you, my darling.”

Diana accepted this term of endearment with a smile. She stopped in her tracks, and locked her eyes on Julian amidst the onlookers. Smiling sweetly and her eyes sparkling like stars, she tiptoed and said, “It’s been a while, honey.”

As the two held hands and returned to the car smiling, the driver was still in shock. He couldn’t help but exclaim,” You’ve made up-just like that?”

Diana’s eyes widened, and she raised their clasped hands high in the air. “We’ve never been anything but good!”

The driver was speechless.

Why was he unexpectedly served a face full of public affection?

The world of couples, especially married couples, was something he truly couldn’t understand.

Seeing the envy in the driver’s eyes, Diana felt even happier.

Seated in the back of the car, she looked at Julian and said,” Thank you so much. This proposal was actually quite unforgettable.”

Then, she couldn’t resist asking, “How did you arrange for the fireworks to be ready so quickly with such short notice?”

Julian pointed at the enormous diamond ring on Diana’s finger. “I had them arranged when I bought the ring. I told the manager to set it up.”

Diana sighed, content. The security from having Julian by her side had been sorely missed. She couldn’t stay still in his embrace, and Julian’s hand had to follow her movements to apply the ice pack to her injured face.

“I also prepared some medical ice packs,” Julian added. When discussing this, he couldn’t help but admonish her.” Next time you go off like that, please let the driver know. When I got back, he said you insisted on leaving the car. He turned pale with worry, you know?”

Diana chuckled, embarrassed. “At that time, I was still angry at you. I was being difficult. I thought you really didn’t want to remarry me.”

Going off to buy medical ice packs was also her way of letting off steam.

“Did you give the store employees a hard time?” she asked.

“No. Also, I still don’t get you.”

He tapped her nose gently. “If you truly wanted to get out of the car, even with me inside, it would’ve been difficult to stop you.”

Diana’s smile widened once more, and she reached for his hand. There were indeed some scars on his otherwise porcelain-white fingers, which were quite striking.

She suddenly felt a bit sad.

“Are these scars from three years ago? When they said I was dead, and when you dug up the grave?”

Julian abruptly pulled his hand back. “How did you know?”

He had never mentioned this incident to Diana before, fearing it would upset her. Yet here she was, knowing about it and clearly feeling distressed.

Her bright eyes shimmered with tears.

Julian was afraid she might start crying, so he quickly said,” We were just celebrating a happy moment.

Why bring up such unpleasant memories?”

He touched Diana’s cheek gently. “It’s all in the past.”

They could return to being married like before. He would cherish her like a treasure for the rest of his life.

Even so, Diana still felt a bit sad
