Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 33
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Diana was still trapped in her disappointment toward Julian, so she never expected that he would actually sit down to accompany her.
The two of them remained unusually quiet throughout the meal.
Diana didnât have much of an appetite. All she ate was bread and tofu with some chili oil and vinegar.
She left everything else practically untouched.
Julian asked a maid to take all the food away before finally speaking. âDidnât you used to like tofu pudding?â
The Fulcher family didnât have a habit of eating carbohydrates for breakfast. Back when Diana suddenly wanted to eat these foods, Julian personally drove for an hour to buy them from a stall outside.
Did he give her a kiss at the time?
Julian only realized there was coriander on his face after arriving at the office. For a long time after that, people who came over for business talks would bring him the best coriander in town.
Julian couldnât resist looking at Diana after recalling the past. âYou didnât eat much at Grandmotherâs place a few days ago when she prepared panâfried pork belly and crab cake for you. Has your taste in food changed?â
Being pregnant certainly did change Dianaâs diet. She now avoided cold, oily food and tended to prefer sour and spicy food.
She was already being very careful.
It was similar to the case of pregnancyâderived nausea. Even if she felt extremely nauseous, she would hold it in and behave normally while making her way to the bathroom. She would then turn on the faucet before vomiting, for fear of having someone notice that something was amiss.
However, Julian was surprisingly perceptive each time.
Alarm bells rang loudly in Dianaâs heart. She was afraid Julian might pay even more careful attention.
âIâve gotten used to your western breakfast after eating it every day for the past three years.â
The room suddenly fell silent after she finished speaking.
Julian shrugged. There were mixed emotions in his eyes. âI thought you were only putting up with me in the past. In reality, you probably preferred the eastern style of breakfast more.â
That was why Julian tasked the kitchen staff to prepare these food every day ever since their divorce was brought up. It was his way of trying to make it up to her.
However, the things Diana did yesterday angered him too much. Initially, breakfast was supposed to be canceled today.
When Noel delivered documents to Julian, he suddenly mentioned Lâs store manager dropping by Fulcher Inc some time ago. Apparently, the manager wanted to see Julian. He even left his number behind.
The receptionist only brought this to Noelâs attention today because an appointment wasnât made ahead of time.
This was an insignificant person, and Julian didnât need to see him at all. However, Noel wasted no time when he heard that it was related to Diana. He immediately informed Julian about it so that Julian could decide what to do with the information.
Indeed, Julian called the manager right away.
Only then did he find out that Kayla wanted Diana to apologize to her in person, and that L wanted to recall a skirt.
The fact that the two of them met up might very well be related to this. It wasnât what Julian had thought yesterday. He had assumed that Diana met Kayla only to show Kayla who the boss was, and that Diana wanted to scold Kayla in person.
Suddenly, Julian felt sorry for the words he uttered the day before.
Unfortunately, he would lose control of his emotions whenever Kayla was involved. This wasnât something he could control.
Julian could only do his best to make it up to Diana. Hence, this morning, he kept doing things to show her his good intentions.
Unluckily for him, he had no clue Diana had stopped liking those foods. In fact, he thought she had forgotten about the past they shared together. Now that he heard her saying this, he felt his heart fluttering again.
âI wasnât putting up with you.â Diana didnât want to lie about this. âYouâre the one who stopped putting up with me.â
Her remark made Julian very upset. If he didnât want to make her happy, he wouldâve gone to the office early in the morning. Why would he have stayed here all this time otherwise?
In fact, he stood in the living room and paid attention to any sound of movement from the bedroom, just so they could share a hot meal together once she came downstairs.
Julian gradually lost his patience. He couldnât resist making a sarcastic reply. âYou seemed awfully happy when eating with other people. With me, however, you seem to be very picky. Who do you think has changed, Diana? You, or me?â
They barely talked, yet an argument was already about to start.
âIâm the one whoâs changed.â Diana didnât want to start arguing this early in the morning. âDonât worry,â
she added while looking at Julian, âIâll return you the money. You donât have to keep reminding me with your presence.â
