Chapter 1222

Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1222 In this situation, receiving Julian’s call made Noel feel somewhat negligent.

He apologized, “I’m sorry, sir, but Mrs. Jarvis didn’t agree. She said she wouldn’t interfere in any matters related to the Fulcher family.”

This was becoming even more strange. Based on Julian’s understanding of Sue, despite her resentment, she wouldn’t stay silent after Diana had kneeled.

It seemed like she initially planned to tell Diana something, only to have a change of heart later.

Julian felt he might have touched on the crucial point of the matter.

’Noel.”

“Yes?”

“When did Jim appear at the Jarvis family?”

“I couldn’t get inside then, so I don’t know the details. It was probably right after Sue wounded Mrs. Fulcher’s forehead.”

Noel remembered this clearly, because Cecilia had witnessed Diana’s head injury. She knew Noel cared about Julian and everything related to the Fulcher family.

Besides, it had been a long time since the Cecilia had slapped Diana. Cecilia had already let go of any lingering resentment between them since then.

Sometimes, she even called Diana to complain about how straight-laced Noel was when they were dating. After that, Diana would help her tease Noel. The next day, during their date, Noel would still act very straightforward, but it would lead to more comedic situations that give Cecilia joy.

Therefore, when Diana got injured, Cecilia immediately contacted Noel to help him come up with a plan to get Diana away.

But at that moment, Jim arrived and helped Diana up in front of Sue. He also tended to her injury.

Julian took a deep drag of his cigarette. He kept thinking about the pills Jim carried, the ones Diana and he had taken, and the pill left by Ian’s daughter.

“Noel, find out if Jim knows Anna.”

“Anna?”

“Yes, Professor Lemmington’s daughter.” Julian’s gaze briefly turned toward Enzo, but he quickly turned away. “I can’t help but feel that everything happening around us isn’t just related to Enzo. Even though Jim has been open about his connection with us and Enzo, I sense that he appeared because he has something against Diana.”

Until he fully understood Jim, Julian wouldn’t rest easy.

He added, “Anna’s death is also suspicious.”

How could a professor’s daughter simply die after eloping with a man? Given Enzo’s reckless behavior, it was hard to believe he could have covered up a person’s death discreetly.

There must be someone meticulous behind the scenes.

Anna was already dead. And now, Jim had his eye on Diana…

The thought sent a shiver down Julian’s spine.

After hanging up, Noel’s expression became even more serious.

Investigating Jim was proving challenging, because the man had a spotless record. Based on the information gathered so far, he was just a university professor specializing in pharmaceutical research. Even his graduate students led quite normal lives.

The only difference was Jim’s propensity for making investments.

He had played a key role in the establishment of Enzo’s pharmaceutical company. Despite Enzo now being on the Forbes list, Jim had shown no interest in seeking the limelight, fitting his character perfectly.

Both Julian and Cecilia had this characteristic to some extent.

Seeing Noel’s furrowed brow, Cecilia couldn’t help but draw closer. Under the moonlight, she held his hand and gazed at him intently.

“Noel, are you worrying about Mr. Fulcher again?”

He nodded, and didn’t conceal his worries. “Yes. I was born to live my life for Mr.

Fulcher.”
