Chapter 502
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Not long ago, Diana wished Julian a speedy marriage with Kayla. But now, she realized that this fact was causing her immense pain. The pain wasnât because Julian and Kayla were getting married, but because it was revealed that Julian truly didnât care about her.
It didnât matter what had happened to the babies, even if it was the very reason for the huge argument today. Julian hadnât even asked the reason she had erupted, which implied he couldnât give a damn about anything concerning her.
Thinking about this, Diana pursed her lips. âCome back.â
She pulled Nina into the room again and said, âEven if Julian favors Kayla to the point of ridiculousness, it doesnât matter.â
Her long lashes fluttered, covering the churning emotions in her eyes.
âThis time, I wonât let Kayla off so easily.â
When a person was entirely too determined, that was when they feared nothing.
âWhat are you planning to do?â Nina asked worriedly.
âYouâll know when the time comes,â Diana replied vaguely, clearly not wanting to talk about it anymore.
Nina felt uneasy and wanted to talk to Vans, but she couldnât very well leave Diana alone in the state Diana was in. In the end, Nina gripped Dianaâs hand tightly and said, âNo matter what happens, donât do anything stupid, okay?â
Diana didnât reply, but she held Ninaâs hand just as tightly.
Nina still felt that something was off, so she went on, âOkay. Since Julian is downstairs, why donât we go to the balcony and see if heâs really living here with Kayla? If heâs really favoring her like an idiot, then weâll give up on the idea of talking to him, okay?â
She pulled Diana outside., âBut if his attitude towards Kayla isnât what we think, then weâll head down and have a proper conversation.â
Nina wouldnât budge about this. Ultimately, Nina didnât believe Dianaâs judgment of a person could be so bad, and that she could fall in love with a cruel man who didnât care about his own children, even after their graves had been dug up and their ashes washed away.
The more Nina thought about it, the less she believed Julian would simply sit idly by. After all, he was Vansâs best friend. From the bottom of her heart, Nina refused to admit that people in their circle could be so cold blooded and ruthless.
Diana couldnât resist her best friend, so she followed Nina to the balcony. From there, she could indeed catch a glimpse of the unit below if she leaned in a little.
Julian had been listening downstairs for a while, but he hadnât heard any movement from upstairs. He thought about going out to the balcony to listen; upon recalling Dianaâs firm words on that rainy night, however, he immediately dismissed the idea.
Never mind. If she could calm down today, then that was already good enough for him. He couldnât let her get angry because of him again.
Butâ¦
Did Diana agree to get together with Oliver?
Julian couldnât help but ponder as this new question floated about his mind. He sat on the couch in the living room, looking up as if he was trying to see through the floorboards.
Kayla naturally had her own thoughts and schemes, and she was also thinking about some questions.
However, what she was thinking was completely different from what Julian was mulling over.
âJulian,â Kayla called out, unable to resist anymore.
She came out of the room and stood before him before continuing coyly,â You called me your fiancee today. Does that still count?â
Julian was stunned, and a surprised look crossed his handsome face.
âFiancee?â
He had obviously forgotten that he had uttered such a thing.
Kayla was also stunned. But she stubbornly pressed, âToday in front of Diana, you called me thatâ¦â
He had said that she was his fiancee!
