Chapter 1374
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Sean couldnât help but think of the rumors surrounding Julian and Diana when they were young.
Back then, Diana was said to be just a stand-in, and Julian had once deeply hurt her.
However, those were past misunderstandings. His parents had long overcome them.
Now, if there was any unhappiness, it could only be becauseâ¦
Daddy didnât love Mommy anymore.
Daddy wanted to abandon his pregnant mommy.
The more Sean thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility.
With Lucas having nothing urgent to attend to, he noticed Seanâs surprised expression, and instantly felt like he had a gossip partner.
âWhatâs the matter? You seem so surprised. Do you know Julian?â Lucas asked.
âNo,â Sean denied once again, continuing to feign innocence to lower Lucasâs guard. âIâm just curious.
Why would the professor punish someone for not cherishing their wife? Isnât the professor just a teacher? Aside from teaching, are teachers supposed to care about whether their students cherish their wives or not?â
âThe professor Iâm talking about isnât a regular teacher,â Lucas clarified. Since Lucas had abandoned the idea of framing Sean for a murder he didnât commit, he had become more patient with Sean. âHeâs my boss.â
âYour boss?â
Lucas didnât elaborate further, and skillfully changed the subject. âHeâll be your boss too in the future. If you join us, I guarantee youâll soar to great heights. Also, your family will become prominent figures in Richburgh. No one will ever question your existence. As for Julian Fulcher, he wonât be the professorâs student anymore. The professor couldnât stand how Julian treated a pregnant woman, so he decided to give him a lesson.âBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
This statement worried Sean even more. He furrowed his brows, pretending as he gently probed, âHis wife is pregnant?â
Lucas nodded. âYes. His wifeâs friend passed away recently, and sheâs been feeling down these days.
Our boss wanted Julianâs wife to come out and relax. Julian not only failed to accompany her, but he didnât even go to the airport to see her off.â
This angered Jim, leading to the subsequent decision not to allow Julian to come to Jacroaof.
Sean felt that this wasnât something Julian would do, so he continued to ask, âBut you⦠I mean, our boss, the professor, in your words. What is his relationship with Julian Fulcherâs wife?â
âHeheâ¦â Lucas chuckled. âItâs not much of a relationship. It seems to be just a concern for a pregnant woman. Our boss cares a lot about her.â
After saying this, he glanced at Sean, signaling him not to ask any further.
âJust complete the tasks on time. If you do well, Iâll let you go and return to the normal training of the training squad.â
It seemed Sean was still not allowed to leave. He had to continue staying in this interrogation room, enduring a humiliating way of life.
Lucas believed this was how he could break and control Seanâs genius and spirit.
Sean understood Lucasâs intentions to some extent, but he couldnât help feeling disappointed. He didnât want to continue living like a dog and eat in such a degrading manner.
He wanted to go out, have regular meals, undergo normal training, and receive proper treatment for his injuries.
However, he was now more concerned about Diana. This time, she was pregnant with twins, and her health wasnât as good as before. She needed someone to take care of her.
If her mood wasnât exceptionally bad, Diana wouldnât have come to Jacroaof alone.
Which of her friends had died? Which one would make her so upset?
The only person that Sean could think of was Nina, his godmother.
Did his godmother pass away?
Sean wanted to search the internet for information, but feared that Lucas would find out.
He had to continue finding a way to extract the information he wanted from Lucas.
âWhich friend of Julian Fulcherâs wife passed away?â
