Chapter 1192
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
To be on the safe side, Julian had Noel investigate. As it turned out, there was no history of twins in the Winnington family for generations.
Julian even had Kateâs ancestors thoroughly looked into, but there was still no evidence of a genetic predisposition to twins.
Where could the problem be, then?
Diana having twins three times in a row was definitely not a coincidence.
But whose fault was it?
After much thought, Julian decided to focus on James and Kate. He believed he must have missed something.
However, the couple had disappeared after being taken away in a mysterious luxury car. There had been no news of them since.
Even if Julian wanted to find James to question him, there was no place to start.
No.
Something was wrong. Who had taken James? Why hadnât he returned to Richburgh yet?
Perhaps, from the very beginning, Julian had missed something important.
He instructed Noel to quickly find out what had happened to the couple.
However, he couldnât bring himself to eat because of his troubled thoughts.
Diana noticed something was amiss, and nudged him with her hand.
âWhatâs on your mind? Are you keeping something from me?â
Julianâs mind was still a mess, and he didnât want to burden Diana with the chaotic situation just yet. He feared it would make her anxious as well.
He simply smiled, and replied calmly, âWhat could I possibly hide from you?â
He picked some of Dianaâs favorite dishes, and placed them on her plate.
âFocus on eating, honey. You need to take care of your health for our baby.â
Diana nodded, and took a bite of the fish. She couldnât help but sigh as she looked at the twins.
âWhen Mommy was pregnant with you two, she also had a strong craving for fish, just like now.â
She smiled, and asked them, âDo you think Mommyâs belly will have a pair of twins like you, a boy and a girl?â
The odds of that happening were too small.
Julian smiled and shook his head, not interrupting Dianaâs daydream.
The twins, however, had given it some serious thought- especially Betty. She pondered on this for a long time before finally saying, âMommy, I donât think so.â
âWhat do you think it is, then?â Diana asked.
âI want two little brothers.â Betty put down her utensils, and made a wish towards Dianaâs belly. âThey must be little brothers.â
Bettyâs earnestness made Diana laugh. âAnd what about you, Sean? What do you think?â
âSisters,â Sean calmly replied, glancing subtly at Julian. âI believe itâs going to be two little sisters.â
Julian knew that Sean hadnât been happy with him lately.
Some time ago, during a conflict between him and Diana, he had only taken Betty away. According to Diana, Sean had been hurt deeply by his actions.
This time, he had forced Sean outside the room.
Coincidentally, Diana started bleeding at the same timeâ¦
With everything that had happened, Julian didnât expect his son to be particularly friendly towards him.
At the moment, he was just glad that Sean was willing to join them for a meal.
He decided to go along with Seanâs words. âYes, I also hope itâs two little sisters.â
âOpposites attract, indeed,â Diana commented with a smile as she continued to eat.
Even though they were in a hospital room, there was no unhappiness among the family.
This was the joy brought by childbirth. It was the only thing that didnât make being in the hospital feel gloomy.
Diana couldnât help but tease her two children. âOne wants cute sisters, while the other wants little brothers. But Iâm different.â
She wanted a pair of twins of different genders.
A boy and a girl!
A combination like Sean and Betty, one boy and one girl, was simply perfect!
However, she didnât know if her wish would come true.
Sean remained silent after that.
