Chapter 1175

Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1175 Strange.

Lina never felt this kind of fear, even when standing before her brother.

And yet, she felt her heart almost stop when Julian glanced at her.

Her wrist hurt so badly.

She mustered up the courage to say, “My wrist hurts…”

Julian glanced at Noel.

Noel immediately walked over, and popped Lina’s wrist back in place.

“I didn’t know Noel had such skills,” Diana said admiringly. She teased Noel, “If Cecilia knew, she’d love you even more.”

The corner of Noel’s lips lifted, but because Julian was around, he didn’t dare to laugh out loud. His ears gradually turned red, though.

Diana thought Noel would remain silent, but he suddenly said, “Ms. Jarvis already loves me very much.”

He was clearly proud of himself when he said it.

Diana couldn’t hold back her laughter. “Julian, I can’t take it. Why do I find Noel so adorable now?”

Julian’s face remained cold and hard, but something shone in the bottom of his eyes. “Because he met the right person.”

Just as Julian did.

Diana had long gotten used to his expressions.

Julian seldom smiled in front of others. He would only show such tenderness with people he was familiar with. He was used to being guarded.

If there were outsiders, he wouldn’t let his emotions show so easily and allow them to guess his emotions.

The old professor was rather taken aback by Julian. “Mr. Fulcher, why are you so stern today?”

The old professor’s name was Ian Lemmington.

His impression of Julian was formed on the new year’s eve, when Diana and the twins called Julian over to help with the wall decorations at his home.

That was his and his wife’s first time interacting with this young man.

Although they were neighbors, houses in this estate were far apart from each other, especially from Julian’s CoIlina Villa, which could be considered the king of all the villas here.

Ian and his wife knew that whoever lived in CoIlina Villa was very powerful and wealthy. It wasn’t someone an ordinary family like them could come close to.

They never expected Julian and Diana to come knocking on their door. The two even gave them a happy, unforgettable new year’s eve.

Winnie could no longer hold herself back when she saw Diana, and burst into tears. “Our daughter… If she hadn’t been tricked by that bastard Enzo Jennings, she’d be just like you. She’d bring home an outstanding young man like Julia, and they’d lead a happy life together.”

Enzo Jennings…

The mention of his name made alarm bells ring in Diana’s mind. Something felt wrong.

Why did everything popping up recently involve the Jennings family?

In consideration of the old professors, however, Diana exchanged discreet glances with Julian to remind him to not say a word about their daughter’s demise.

She held Mrs. Lemmington’s hands, and tried to comfort the old lady. “Tell us more about it, ma’am.

How did your daughter get involved with Enzo Jennings?”

“Yeah!” Lina said.

She stood right there, water still dripping from her clothes. Her wrist had been popped back. She was cold and wet, but all she dared to do was take her bodyguard’s jacket and wrap it around her shoulders. Without a word from Julian, she didn’t dare leave.

For one, Lina feared Julian greatly. She instinctively felt that this man was way scarier than she imagined.

Another reason was that her brother had instructed her to deliver some oranges here.

She looked at the basket of fruits, and sighed helplessly.

She hadn’t given them the oranges yet. Not only that, but she even got splashed with water for her trouble.

Lina clenched her fists, not daring to look at Julian. Instead, she turned to the old couple, and said irritably, “Speak! How is your daughter related to my brother?”
