Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 346
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
âSir.â
Noel wasnât even wearing a raincoat as he arranged for maintenance outside.
âItâs raining too heavily, and more than six manhole covers are missing. Thatâs not the only problem.
The covers on this entire road are loose, and someone may fall in if they donât pay attention. Even our car might drive right into one, especially with how bad vision is now.â
r. Even The rain was heavy, and the weather was poor. Even with money and power, it was difficult to find a large number of workers on such short notice.
Whatâs more, this was clearly a security issue.
It would be more troublesome if a worker were to have an accident during this period.
âIs there still no signal?â Julian asked.
Noelâs face looked like it was going to turn deformed under the heavy rain, and he raised his hand to wipe away the water multiple times before he could speak clearly, âNo.â
The nearby signal source seemed to have been cut off from them, and it was difficult to contact anyone. It was probably the same the other way around.
That was how he and Noel were stuck on the road.
N âDianaâs already gotten off work,â Julian muttered. He had promised he would pick her up.
Based on her character, she would contact him if she didnât see him after he promised something; if she couldnât reach him, she would get flustered.
Especially because she had been a little restless in the past few days.
Besides, the weather today was terrible.
Julian looked up, glancing at the water pouring down on them like curtains of beads. He was shocked to find that it seemed to be getting heavier instead of getting lighter, as he had thought earlier.
The dark cloudy sky above made a depressing image.
Julian gripped his tie and pulled it violently, throwing it aside in irritation as he said to Noel, âIâll walk on my own. Return to the company and take those two workers with you. Go back and stay safe.â
Noel was reluctant. âSir⦠These incidents donât seem like simple coincidences. You canât leave on your own.â
Julian obviously understood. Accidents like this wouldnât happen on Scenery Street as it was an area under his territory, after all. He had made a lot of effort and invested a lot of capital to maintain it.
But today, so many covers had gone missing and loose; even the signal source had been cut off. The heavy rain definitely wasnât the reason for all these things.
âIâll be fine,â Julian said, already stepping into the heavy downpour. âHead back to the company and contact the communications and engineering department. Solve the problem. Iâll be back soon.â
Noel was still unwilling to do so and shouted, âSir! Is maâam that important? Perhaps she has already returned to the villa. Why take a big risk to get out of here like this? What if thereâs an ambush waiting for you? What-â
âWhat if she hasnât?â Julian answered simply. He turned around and gave Noel a firm look. âYou donât understand. Even if itâs just a ten in one thousand chance that sheâs worried about me, I need to go to her and stand before her and show her that Iâm fine and unscathed so she wonât worry anymore.â
Julian wouldnât let himself cause any anxiety to Diana.
What was more, there was no way to put up a warning sign on this road now. Julian didnât dare to imagine the consequences if Diana was really on the way to Fulcher Inc. and got stuck on this road.
As such, he needed to find her first.
He didnât look back and said loudly to Noel, âDonât worry.â
Julian knew enough selfâdefense to protect himself. Even if there were gangsters on the street waiting for him, it would be fine.
More importantly, he needed to see his wife.
There was no way he was going to wait here and risk Dianaâs life on the street.
Noel wanted to follow him, but it was equally important to solve the issue they were facing right now.
They couldnât afford to have any accidents on this road that was under Julianâs care. Otherwise, public opinion would tear Fulcher Inc. apart and cause heavy losses once the rain passed.
That was the reason Julian had asked Noel to return to the company and settle the issue.
So, there was nothing Noel could do as he watched Julian venture out in the heavy rain and walk further away from him.
