Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 37
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Diana was stunned. She looked at Kate in disbelief. âWhat do you know?â
Kate knew everything!
Upon recalling the way Julian looked at her previously, Kate didnât dare to say too much.
âIf nothing went wrong, why would my wonderful sonâinâlaw not care about you when that incident happened last time? Besides, you wouldnât have shown up out of the blue for the first time in three years just to demand money. The only explanation is that Julian no longer wants to spend money on you, but youâve gotten used to the good life. You donât want to live like a poor person. Thatâs why you came to me for alimony.â
It was all an excuse! Diana merely wanted her money.
Kate behaved as if she was the bigger person. âTo be honest, Iâll give you any amount you want as long as youâre willing to leave him.â
Diana found this a little odd. âWhat do you mean, as long as Iâm willing to leave him?â
Nobody else should have found out about her getting a divorce with Julian.
Did Julian leak the news?
Yet, he had promised her he wouldnât tell anyone about them getting a divorce. Even Grandma was in the dark. He probably wouldnât go back on his promise.
A thought suddenly occurred to Diana. She looked up at the panicâstricken Kate. âThat dayâ¦â Diana said slowly.
âOn the day you organized the welcoming party for Kayla, whose daughter did Julian attend with?â
Diana asked.
Kate frequently mingled with rich housewives, and they had their own social circle. As a result, their daughters usually hung out together.
When Kayla returned to the country and held her own welcoming party, many rich children from respectable families attended the party.
If Julianâs woman really was one of them, it wouldnât be surprising if Kate heard about Diana getting a divorce with him.
However, Diana wanted to find out who exactly leaked the information so that she could tell Julian about it once she went home. She wanted him to tell that woman not to spread the word.
Otherwise, Grandma would find out sooner or later. If anything were to happen to Grandma because of their divorce, Diana would blame herself for the rest of her life.
A look of panic flashed briefly on Kateâs face. Was Diana unaware of what had happened between Kayla and Julian? Was that why she asked the question?
Did Diana not come to the Winnington residence to give Kayla a hard time?
However, she ended up slapping Dianaâ¦
Kate didnât know why she could never keep her emotions in check when Diana was standing before her. Recalling the scenes during the welcoming party made Kateâs hands tremble slightly. She looked at Dianaâs face, one that reminded her of her husband. Suddenly, her heart went out to Diana.
In realityâ¦
Diana was her biological daughter. Kate understood that.
Unexpectedly, Kate blurted out, âIf only you hadnât gone missing when you were threeâ¦â
Dianaâs tears instantly trickled down her cheeks.
This was the first time she felt genuine kindness and sympathy from her biological mother.
Seeing Kate like this made her feel a little embarrassed. She picked up a glass of water and pretended to drink from it to conceal her turbulent emotions. However, before her lips even touched the glass, Kate shouted at her. âDonât touch that glass! It belongs to Kayla!â
Kate ignored Dianaâs stunned stance and quickly snatched the glass away from Diana, as if it was her prized treasure. Kate then asked a servant to give Diana a paper cup instead. âI made this back when I took her to a pottery class, and she was still a child. She adores it. She normally doesnât let anyone use it. You donât come here often anyway. Just use a singleâuse paper cup.â
Kate realized she had said something wrong again when she saw the look on Dianaâs face.
Kate knew this would happen!
Whenever Diana showed up, her peace would be disrupted, and she would behave as if she was a criminal. Kate suddenly became upset again. âTell me, how much money do you want from me?â
