Chapter 1370
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
For now, he still needed to get used to this life of eating from a dog bowl while lying on the ground.
He was frustrated. If he hadnât come here, none of this would have happened. He wouldnât have ended up in such a miserable situation.
He wondered if his parents missed him.
After perfecting the microcomputer on his wrist, he would return to being useless to others. At that time, would he become a discarded piece once again, the weakest link in the entire training campâs ecosystem?
Sean didnât want to die.
His next goal was to survive at all costsâeven if it meant getting involved with the powerful Hughes family, who were the masterminds behind Leonardâs death. He was determined to live.

Meanwhile, Diana straightened Bettyâs clothes and bent down to adjust Bettyâs collar. She did it to hide the tears welling up in her own eyes.
They came out to have fun, so they couldnât be unhappy.
âSean must be very happy,â Diana said to Betty. âJoining the training camp is his dream. We canât stop him just because we miss him. Weâll be able to see him again in a little over half a year. When you see him, be sure to give him a big hug.â
Diana hugged Betty, and then they walked forward.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
âMommy will give him a hug, too. Our family will be together again. Itâs beautiful just to think about.â
âButâ¦â Betty was somewhat dissatisfied.
She counted the days on her fingers. Her eyebrows scrunched in worry.
âOver half a year⦠Thatâs still a long time.â
Diana couldnât bear to see Betty disappointed. She comforted Betty, saying, âItâs not that long.â
She took Bettyâs hand, and placed it on her own belly. âWhen the babies in Mommyâs belly are born, Sean will be back.â
A few days ago, Dianaâs growing belly wasnât very noticeable. She could easily hide it with loose, oversized clothes.
But today, a sudden oval-shaped bulge appeared.
Betty dared not hug her in the morning, afraid of putting pressure on the babies in Dianaâs belly.
âTheyâre growing up fast, right?â she asked.
Diana nodded.
âYes. The day Sean comes back will come quickly, too. Donât worry, sweetie. By then, youâll be both a big sister and a little sister. Youâll definitely have a great time!â she said, comforting Betty. In truth, she said that to convince herself.
Betty thought about it, and agreed.
Everyone would be around her! Sean would still pat her head and give her candy when she was upset.
He would use his New Yearâs gift money to buy her dolls and pretty clothes. Her little sisters would stare at her with wide eyes. They wouldnât be able to speak yet, but they would surely call her âbig sisterâ in their hearts!
The thought delighted her.
âOkay, Mommy!â
A childâs sadness came and went quickly. She soon tossed aside the melancholy caused by missing Sean.
However, Diana struggled to free herself from this emotional state.
She, too, missed Sean terribly. In the quiet of the night, she even felt like she would go crazy from missing him.
She couldnât help but recall how cute he had been as a baby. His chubby legs were meaty, and his skin was so wonderfully soft.
When he slept, his little mouth would make sucking movements. It was adorable!
Diana couldnât get enough of showering his cute little face with kisses.
She also recalled how bouncy his cheeks were.
