Chapter 1148

Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1148-

Simon still wanted to claim Diana as his own.

He looked possessively-almost obsessively-at her. However, that look gradually gave way to clarity.

Diana didn’t know what was going through Simon’s mind, and didn’t notice his obsessed expression.

She smiled, and said, “Please don’t take it personally. Julian needs time, too.”

Simon nodded in understanding. “It’s good enough that you came out.”

“Thank you for remembering the wall decorations,” Diana said smilingly, taking hold of the wheelchair handle.

The wheelchair shook slightly. She had to try pushing it a few times before it could budge. Pushing it along the road, she said, “Why did you leave right after sending your blessings?”

She chuckled, and her next words shocked Simon. “Didn’t we agree to celebrate the new year together? We have to at least have dinner together.”

Never had Simon expected Diana to describe him as someone who would give others his blessings. It impacted him so much, his hands started trembling.

He remained silent all the way as Diana continued pushing his wheelchair. Julian didn’t even chase him out when Diana brought him into the villa. It all felt so unbelievable.

Simon grabbed the armrest tight as he stared at Julian.

Julian didn’t tell Simon to leave. Instead, he said to Diana,” Come and wash your hands. I’ll call the twins.”

Julian turned to glance at Simon, who remained unmoved. He looked like he had bestowed a great favor upon Simon.

“Did you cripple your brain on top of your legs?” he sneered. ” For you to willingly paralyze your own legs, your brain must be addled.”

He brought such misery upon himself, all for the sake of earning a woman’s pity. Julian didn’t know if he should call Simon a fool in love.

Simon mocked him back. “Takes one to know one.”

In the past, when Julian took the knife for Diana, he probably didn’t even consider whether he would survive the attack.

Julian was stunned for a moment.

Simon refused to go further inside.

Julian sneered again. ‘The kitchen prepared too much food for dinner. It’ll go to the dogs if you don’t eat it. Just come in.”

Diana returned from washing her hands, and heard what Julian said. She rolled her eyes at him immediately.

He obviously wanted to ask Simon to stay for dinner, and invited the latter voluntarily. Despite that, he had to say such nasty words to Simon.

She went to hit Julian, but he did not retaliate at all. Neither was he shocked-he acted as if he was used to such treatment.

He just turned around and called the twins.

Everything was happening out of Simon’s expectations.

He thought it was already good enough that Julian allowed Diana say a few words to him. That would already bring new hope for him in this new year.

But now…

Simon picked up the spoon, and looked at the Fulchers seated at the table in disbelief. He suddenly didn’t understand what was going on.

“Having dinner with you doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven you,” Julian said. “Don’t think too much.”

Although Simon wasn’t all out wicked, he was definitely no saint.

“And if you dare to do anything against us again,” Julian warned, glaring at Simon during the meal, ‘TH throw you into a river full of crocodiles!”

Diana was flabbergasted to hear Julian talk about crocodiles when the twins were around, and during the new year eve’s dinner to boot.

What’s more, Simon wasn’t a child. Julian sounded like he was trying to frighten a kid.

She kicked Julian under the table. “Hurry up and eat.”

Julian relaxed his tense jaw, and began eating. Things soon quietened down around the table.

Betty even offered Simon some food. “Uncle Simon, eat.”

Children tend to be forgetful, but Betty still remembered her days with Simon in Stirling Cit
