Chapter 1367
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Wasnât it normal for her to get fat when pregnant?
She didnât expect Julian to pay so much attention to her figure.
When they first found out that she was pregnant, he even told her that no matter how she changed, he would always find her as beautiful as she had been when they first got to know each other.
Yet now, despite her efforts to keep her weight under control, he could see that she had grown fatter.
Was he really that indifferent about it?
Diana was very frustrated.
She wished she could throttle Julian right there and then, and stuff his face in a toilet bowl.
A pity she could neither grab his hair nor any part of his body right now.
To be fair, Julian couldnât touch her as well.
Diana decided that over the next few days, she wouldnât answer his calls or talk to him.
With that determination, she switched off her phone. She even did the same with Bettyâs phone.
âDonât you dare secretly contact Daddy,â she warned.
That was fine for Betty. She was confident Daddy could contact them regardless.
Butâ¦
âIf our phones are off, how are we going to take photos?â
Betty was vain, and she paid special attention to the pursuit of beauty. When she just turned one and learned how to walk, she would hold onto Dianaâs bag and saunter around the house.
She even tried wearing Dianaâs high heels, crashing onto the floor each time she tried to take a step.
She loved beautiful and sparkly things.
When she grew older and knew how to use a phone, she fell in love with taking selfies.
She would make all sorts of poses using various selfie apps, picking photos she liked for Diana to print so she could insert them into an album and look through them whenever she felt like it.
In fact, taking her on a holiday but stopping her from taking photos was worse than leaving her all alone at home while the whole family went out on a holiday.
âWe have a camera,â Diana said, pulling a camera out from her bag. âYou can take selfies with it. Try it.
The effectâs the same as when you insert filters in your photos. They look great.â
Before Diana was done speaking, Betty had already positioned herself before the lens.
Her fair and round face filled the screen, her cheeks blushing bright red, and her large eyes sparkling like the sea under the sunlight. She looked so vibrant and full of life, anyone who saw her wouldnât be able to look away.
Diana looked at her daughter affectionately, immediately forgetting the displeasure that she felt over Julian.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
Betty was completely captivated by the camera. She kept tinkering with it and posing before it. She took many photos, and was happy with every single one of them.
âThese look even better than the ones taken with the phone!â
Betty was in love with the camera. She would ask Diana to take photos for her at every scenic spot they went.
The daughter-mother pair enjoyed their time, but Julian was steeped with anxiety. He realized he couldnât contact them anymore.
Oliver had just calmed down, and Julian didnât dare to leave him alone for too long. He could only keep trying to contact Diana while walking back to Oliverâs room.
The moment he pushed open the door to Oliverâs room, he saw Oliver still lying on the bed.
The man was lying on the pillow, with nothing in his hand. His face was still slightly pale, his eyes all hollow and empty.
When he saw Julian come in, light entered his eyes. âWere you able to contact Diana?â
âYes, I was,â Julian said with a nod. âBoth of them are off on a holiday.â
Julian explained Dianaâs current situation to Oliver. âShe was quite affected by Fannyâs death.â
Diana had lost a child before. Although she turned out fine, what happened to Fanny reminded her of her painful memories.
She considered Fanny a friend, and they were business partners who appreciated each other. It was inevitable for her to miss Fanny after the latterâs death.
âDiana doesnât look like someone whoâd go on solo trips,â Oliver said.
She preferred staying at home rather than going out. The most she did was go to her studio to work.
She seldom headed out by herself, especially when she was in low spirits.
Whatâs more, she was currently pregnant with a child in tow.
Oliverâs words served as a reminder to Julian.
