Chapter 1207
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Sue Chimmery would never allow Noel to be her son-in-law!
She could finally vent all her pent-up anger today, after so long.
âTodayâ¦â
Sue looked at Diana, and pointed to the floor.
âTo be honest, I knew the ones behind Enzo Jennings a long time ago. I also knew theyâd attack your family sooner or later. But your appearances messed everything up. You made the engagement I agreed with Julian seem like nothing but a joke.â
Thinking that, fire burned in Sueâs heart. She clenched her fists.
âDiana, kneel and beg me.â
She might be benevolent enough if she could see Dianaâs knees rot away, and perhaps give Diana some useful information that could save Julian.
The moment Sue said thatâ¦
Plop!
Diana immediately went on her knees.
âMrs. Jarvis, I was wrong.â
Diana had always been good with adapting to circumstances. As long as she could help Julian and save her children, forget kneeling, she wouldnât mind even cleaning Sueâs shoes!
She apologized sincerely to Sue. âPlease be benevolent and forgive my mistakes. Please show us mercy and give us a way out. Iâ¦â
Before she could complete her sentence, she felt a pain in her abdomen. It wasnât very sharp, just a dull throb.
However, it was enough to make her face change.
Could it be�
Would she lose this pregnancy as well?
She shouldnât have pierced the condom! She shouldâve listened to Julian and not get pregnant again.
Butâ¦
She had thought her life from then on would be smoothsailing.
Who knewâ¦
That there was more waiting for them.
Dianaâs heart was in sorrow, but she couldnât deal with it.
Aside from the fetus in her stomach, she had to protect Julian and her twins too.
If she couldnât protect them all, then so be itâ¦
It would be painful sacrificing either of them.
Despite the pain in her heart, Diana kept smiling.
âMrs. Jarvis. If you sell me some information out of the kindness of your heart, I swear that the Fulchers will always back up all business dealings with the Jarvises. We will never interfere.â
âThatâs business. I donât care about that,â Sue said, not tempted by the huge profits dangled before her.
Her smile sent chills down Dianaâs spine.
âWhat I care about most is still my daughterâs marriage.â
Sue removed the lid of her ceramic tea cup, and it made a piercing clinking sound.
âDiana Winnington. You remarried Julian Fulcher, but what about my daughter?
What is she to do now? If you can give me a satisfactory answer today, Iâll give you the information you want.â
What could Diana do about Ceciliaâs marriage?
Marrying Noel was naturally the most appropriate option. He was a loving and caring man. Most importantly, he and Cecilia loved each other.
Their relationship had lasted close to a year, despite the Jarvisesâ opposition.
That itself proved the depth of their love.
However, it was an answer Sue would surely hate.
Should Diana mention Julian? But they were already remarried!
Left with no option, she could only try her luck and use the Fulcher name again.
Crash!
Suddenly, Sueâs tea cup landed right on her forehead.
The pain in Dianaâs abdomen intensified as blood trickled from her forehead.
She never expected Sue to injure her like this.
