Chapter 1263

Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1263 The dark sky looked as if a huge hand had torn a hole in it. Everything was still hazy and gray; Diana could barely see the flowers that had bloomed outside the window.

She pulled the curtains close and glanced at Julian, who was deep asleep.

Quietly, she tiptoed out of the room.

Diana had no idea what time Julian returned home. At first, she really wanted to wake him up and ask him about Sean.

Seeing him sound asleep showed her how tired he was. Sean had just joined the training squad and didn’t come back with Julian, proving that he didn’t change his mind at the last minute as Diana had secretly hoped.

She and her son were probably going to meet only one year later.

The thought made her uncomfortable.

She could only try to distract herself by not thinking about what could happen to her son at the training squad.

As she forced herself to calm down, a thought sprung to her mind. Suddenly, she recalled where she placed the folder Jim had given her.

She smacked her forehead. The folder was in the car!

When she came back from the funeral, she was so anxious to talk to Sean that she chucked the folder into the car’s glove compartment.

What’s more, she was scheduled to meet Professor Hughes today.

Once that realization dawned upon Diana, she quickly got changed and headed to the garage.

CoIlina Villa had been renovated after Enzo made a mess of the place, and there were many thoughtful and enhanced features added in the process.

For example, a thick carpet layered the floor. When Diana stepped on it, she felt very comfortable.

The woven carpet didn’t feel warm despite the early summer. In fact, it felt slightly cool on her soles; it was very cozy.

She walked out of her room and into the courtyard. After going through a long corridor, she finally reached the garage.

There were many cars parked inside. Diana had to spend some time to find the one that they drove yesterday.

All the cars were equipped with an automatic car lock feature that didn’t require a key, and Diana had previously input her fingerprint. Right after she touched the door handle, the lights blinked and the car door opened with a click.

Diana pulled the car door open, and bent inside. Pulling the glove compartment open, she found the folder almost immediately.

It was still early in the morning, and everyone was still in bed. Diana wasn’t in a rush to get back, and decided to just sit in the front passenger seat and open the folder.

As she had guessed, there were papers inside.

However, they weren’t property deeds. They were long- winded documents.

Diana was about to buckle down and read them properly when she heard Layla calling.

“Mrs. Fulcher, why are you here at the garage early in the morning? It’s cold here!”

Layla grabbed a shawl, and walked toward Diana.

“Don’t think you can ignore the morning chill just because the weather’s getting warmer. You’re pregnant, so you must be more careful.”

Diana didn’t expect Layla to wake up so early.

Layla was showing concern for her, and she couldn’t possibly disregard that.

She could only put the papers back into the folder and follow Layla back to her room.

Under Layla’s watchful gaze, Diana changed and washed up.

Right after that, Betty woke up.

Betty didn’t feel good on her first night apart from her brother, and didn’t sleep well. The moment she heard a commotion outside her room, she jumped out of bed.

She hugged Diana’s leg, then sat on Diana’s lap. “Mommy, do you miss Sean?”

Diana felt her face freeze. Tears welled up in her eyes and fell down her cheeks.
