Chapter 1345
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
He treated her as a spare tireâeven worse, just a tool for reproduction.
After all, the one he loved was still Diana. Why should she continue to feel heartache for him? From now on, they were just a couple carrying the burden of an ancient feud.
Perhaps, soon enough, they wouldnât even be a couple anymore.
Fanny didnât believe it.
This time, she couldnât escape. She wouldnât be able to escape in the future.
But, one dayâ¦
She would definitely escape.
Fanny closed her eyes, holding back the tears that threatened to fall. Snot seemed to have formed in her throat.
The discomfort gradually made her forget the pain in her body, but the blood was still flowing freely.
âFanny,â Oliver said. His eyes showed some reluctance, but it quickly disappeared. âSince you want to leave me so much, Iâll grant your wish.â
He bent down, and lifted her into his arms. He walked slowly towards the villa that was about to be reinforced and completely sealed.
This used to be the embrace she craved the most.
When she was young, Fanny couldnât adapt to the life of the Channings. Seeing some beautiful and delicate dishes, she was afraid of breaking them and dared not touch anything during meals.
She would just pick up the utensils, not taking any food, claiming she was already full.
This continued for a long time, and she eventually made herself suffer from hypoglycemia and fainted at the Channingsâ dining table.
Although Kenneth didnât say much, it was evident that he was displeased. After all, everyone knew he brought an adopted daughter from outside. And now, she was suffering from malnutrition in his family!
At that moment, Kenneth harbored thoughts of getting rid of this girl and sending her back with her parents.
It was Oliver who, at that time, lifted the unconscious Fanny from the ground. He gave her the strongest support.
But now, this embrace had become a prison that confined her. His voice extinguished the hope that had just ignited in her.
âWithin the next month, I will make you pregnant as soon as possible.â
Pregnancy meant intimacy.
Intimacy meantâ¦
He would once again possess her body.
It would be an insult to her parents.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
Fanny felt humiliated, and almost bit her lips until they bled. âOliver, Iâll neverâ¦â
Before she could finish her sentence, he lowered his head and kissed her fiercely. No matter how she struggled and fought back, he refused to adjust the angle even a little.
In the end, her lips were swollen. Any movement brought pain, entwining her in a tight web of agony.
After the pain came deeper humiliation, but she couldnât push him away.
âCooperate, and get a medical check-up.â
Finally standing up, he looked at her with a familiar gaze. In the past, that look was part of their marital playfulness. Now, it was disgust, insult, and agonyâa profound lack of understanding.
âCooperate for a medical check-up? Then you also want me to cooperate with you to get pregnant?â
He touched on the sensitive subject.
âIf your father knew about our current relationship, knew that I harbored murderous intent towards him, would he still be willing to keep me as his daughter-in-law?â
Wouldnât the most rational and calm decision be to divorce her now?
Leaving her here would mean having a potential threat to the Channings.
Oliver, who had been in the position of the Channingsâ head for three years, couldnât possibly be ignorant of this logic.
To the Channings, Fanny was a lurking wolf, ready to pounce from the shadows and bite off the familyâs neck at any moment. She knew too much about the Channingsâ business.
âHe doesnât have the final say,â Oliver said, his response catching Fanny off guard. âBecause heâll soon receive news of your death.â
Oliver intended to permanently conceal Fannyâs existence. He wanted to turn a living person into a dead one in everyoneâs minds.
He aimed to cut off all of Fannyâs escape routes, so she would peacefully stay in this villa as his prisoner!
