Chapter 1398
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Even his voice was different.
This manâs voice was quite hoarse, rich, and deep. It could be considered pleasant; in fact, it had a unique feeling.
Cecilia took a sip of coffee.
âIâm not saying you should have worn a voice changer. I didnât want to wear it at first, either. It was the waitress who suggested that wearing it would make blind dates more fun. So I thought, âYeah, wearing it will give it a cosplay vibe.â So, I decided to wear it.
âAs for whether you wear it or not, it doesnât matter. The most important thing is whether we can have a good conversation.
âIf two people are in love, then voicesâ¦â
Cecilia trailed off, and her voice suddenly became melancholy.
Inevitably, her thoughts turned to Noel.
Noel was Ceciliaâs first true love.
She had liked Julian before, but that didnât count as love and didnât leave a deep impression in her heart.
Noel, on the other hand, was someone who made her feel happy and experience the pain of happiness being shattered because of love.
Such a profound past couldnât be ignored.
At that moment, she was sitting across a man.
She couldnât help but compare them.
Comparing them in conversation.
âIf two people are in loveâ¦â
They certainly wouldnât be like Noel, accepting the Jarvisesâ money and putting them both in an impossible situation.
âDonât talk about voices. Even if thereâs a disparity in family background, appearance, or even one being disabled and the other having a mental illness, or maybe if one is ordinary and the other a genius, they can still be together.â
As long as they loved each other.
Unfortunately, she didnât have that kind of luck.
On the other hand, Diana and Fanny seemed to have found men who didnât care about anything and still wanted to be with them.

Meanwhile, Fanny was lying in despair in the villa.
She didnât even go to bed. Every day, she lay on the floor.
In the summer, it was stifling to stay outside the window.
The room didnât have air conditioning on. Lying on the floor wasnât cooling. In fact, it made her feel uncomfortable all over, but she didnât care.
She just wanted to get out of here.
Yet every exit, the walls, the windows, and even the sewer, had been rechecked by Oliverâs men. They were all sealed airtight.
It was as if he wanted to imprison her until she died in here.

Must she really give Oliver another child?
He had said that as long as she got pregnant again and gave birth to their child, he would let her go.
However, there were too many things she hadnât done yet. She didnât even know the surname and name of her own parents, or whether they were properly buried after the accident all those years ago.
These things were all unclear.
She must seek revenge for her parents and make the man she had called Dad for over twenty years pay the price!
Most hateful wasâ¦
The fact she had to bear a child for the son of her enemy.
That pained her. It suffocated her!
The phone was already in her hand.
Fanny bit her lip, and tightly clenched her fist.
Finally, she called him.
âHello⦠Oliver.â
There was no affection in her tone, like there had been when they were siblings. The adoration in her voice when they were married was also absent.
She sounded like she had been thrown into icy water in winter.
Oliver, who should be happy to receive her call, couldnât muster any joy at all. An invisible heaviness and gloom enveloped him.
His heart grew colder. âWhatâs wrong?â
He sounded impatient. Disgusted, even.
Fanny gripped the phone even more tightly. âWas what you said before true?â
âWhat did I say?â
She hesitated, finding it difficult to speak.
In an instant, Oliver seemed to suddenly realize something.
Did Fanny calling him mean she had completely changed her mind?
Did she want to reconcile with him?
