Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 327
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
The smile on Dianaâs lips gradually fell away.
It was precisely because she was pregnant that she was worried.
Worried that his love for her wasnât sincere, and that he was only doing it for the babies and to fulfill Madam Fulcherâs wish to have greatâgrandchildren.
Even if those reasons were only a small part of why he had chosen to reconcile with her and not bring up divorce anymore, she still felt like cold water had poured down on her. Her anticipation vanished instantly.
The actual fact, in the end, was that he had done it all for the babies.
Men were liars through and through.
At this moment, Diana once again experienced the true meaning of that saying, and pushed Julianâs heartfelt confession to the back of her mind.
If his feelings werenât completely genuine, thenâ¦she didnât need to surrender her whole heart to him either.
They only needed to uphold the status quo for the babiesâ sake. As long as they were healthy and happy, then as their mother, she felt it was worth it.
When Diana remained silent for a long time, Julian leaned down and kissed her forehead. âWhatâs wrong? Why did you become so quiet?â
âItâs nothing,â Diana replied, turning her head to rub against his shoulder, effectively wiping away the traces of his kiss. âIâm just feeling rested and comfortable right now.â
Julian smiled and continued to rub her abdomen gently. âItâll be even better when they start to move.â
He eagerly looked forward to seeing if the babies would take after Diana or not.
âShould we check their gender when they get older?â Diana asked, thinking he was still quite concerned about this matter.
âNo,â Julian replied without hesitation. âThereâs no point doing so. Iâll like them no matter their gender.â
After all, they would be his and Dianaâs babies.
Madam Fulcher was also looking forward to their birth.
âAnyway, Grandma would break my legs if she found out.â
Diana couldnât help but laugh at the thought of the kindly old woman doing such a thing. 1 âThatâs true. But if they really are girls, are you sure itâll be fine?â
She was afraid Julian would recall his bad memories, and feel upset and disappointed when the children were born. It would certainly affect their parentâchild relationship. If Julian knew their genders earlier, perhaps heâd have had enough time to prepare himself so that his disappointment wouldnât surface.
âOf course itâs fine,â Julian said, pinching her nose gently. âDo I look that fragile to you?â
âNot really,â Diana said, shaking her head. She added truthfully, âI was only afraid itâd affect the babies.â
Her expression turned serious as she looked at the handsome man before her. âI wonât allow anyone to hurt them, not even you.â
Diana had never shown him such a tough and determined side of herself. Rather than feeling threatened, Julian looked highly amused.
âYou look like a mother hen defending her chicks against all odds.â
As he said that, he reached out to tickle her. When she squealed in surprise at the action, he laughed and said seriously, âDonât worry. Iâll love them as much as you do.â
They were both looking forward to meeting their children, after all.
When Diana saw the serious, domineering man showing her such goofy actions, the previous bit of unpleasantness in her heart dissipated completely. She laughed along with him.
Their happy laughter was clearly infectious, as even the driverâs lips quirked up into a smile as he drove.
It would be great if time could go on like this where they were happy and at peace.
Yet, it wasnât meant to be.
The next day, Diana returned home and did some overtime after work. After sending the monthly dress design she had promised Fanny, she was suddenly hit with a wave of dizziness.
Since it was her first pregnancy, she didnât want to be careless and brush off anything that happened to her.
