Chapter 1234
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Julianâs Stand-In Wife chapter 1234 Julian hesitated for a moment.
He didnât want to agree to it.
However, Diana beat him to it. âJulian.â
She didnât say anything further, but her intent was clear. She wanted to know what Jim wanted to tell her.
Julian had no choice but to agree to it.
âIâll send you both over there where thereâs shade,â Julian said as he looked up at the sky. âItâs raining, and I canât let Diana catch a cold.â
Jim agreed to it.
After Julian left the both of them in the pavilion, Jim handed Diana a document.
âWhat is this?â Diana said curiously.
The document looked way too formal. It was sealed up with tape, looking just like a piece of confidential document.
Rather than being in a rush to open it, Diana glanced at Jim and asked, âWhat is this?â
âA present for you,â Jim said with a small smile that looked so natural on him, it didnât seem impolite at a funeral.
Everything he did was always so appropriate and fitting with the occasion.
Diana was shocked to receive a present from him. âMr. Hughes.â
She tightened her hold over the document, her curiosity toward Jim surpassing her curiosity over the contents of the document. âDo we know each other?â
She did nothing to deserve this present.
Whatâs more, as far as she could remember, yesterday was the first time she met Jim.
Why did he give her a present upon seeing her today?
It even looked as if he came to this funeral specifically for her.
Diana wasnât a narcissist.
Whatâs more, Julian also told her that the look in Jimâs eyes whenever he looked at her wasnât a look of lust that men would have toward women.
She trusted Julianâs judgment.
It made it all the more strange that Jim suddenly gave her a present upon seeing her today.
How were they related to each other?
How could she just accept this document?
Jim didnât seem to have heard her question. He didnât answer.
He simply said, âIâm making amends on Enzoâs behalf. He offended you and Mr.
Fulcher, and even made a move on your children. You two didnât report him to the police on my behalf, and Iâm very grateful forthat.â
That explained why he gave Diana this document as a present. He felt guilty toward her and wanted to make it up to her.
That lessened the worry in Dianaâs heart. It also gave her the guts to accept the document.
âMr. Hughes, whatâs inside?â
âYou can take a look at it anytime.â
Diana was finally curious enough about its contents to open the envelope. Just then, Sean walked toward her.
Both Sean and Betty were dressed in black, as they were attending a funeral.
Betty still looked as adorable as always despite being in all black, and not in her usual pink and white colored dresses. Her puffed up cheeks made her look just like an adorable little animal.
Sean, on the other hand, looked even cooler and colder in black.
Even Diana felt slightly taken aback at first glance by the cold aura Sean was exuding. She immediately crouched low, subconsciously wanting to hug Sean.
But Sean took a step back and warned, âMommy, be careful with your tummy.â
