Chapter 828
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
âIâll order delivery,â Diana said. âCome and see what youâd like to eat.â
Sean shook his head. âI want something from the canteen.â
He had asked the nurses about it.
Although the food in the canteen didnât taste great, it was easy on the stomach and great for Mommyâs wound recovery.
He insisted on getting food from the canteen by himself.â Donât worry.â
He showed Diana the meal card that he got from the nurse and said, âI wonât go to the canteen for patients. Iâll go to the one for doctors.â
There were fewer people there, and therefore safer for a child like him.
The food in that canteen also tasted better.
Diana was shocked. âWho gave you that?â
âOne of the nurses.â He smiled. âI didnât do anything but flash them a smile. After that, they asked me how I would get food.â
Sean received many meal cards after replying to them.
He picked one and thanked them, telling them The nurses shrieked in excitement over his docility, reaching out to pinch his cheeks.
Since he was in the hospital and in need of help from others, Sean bore with it despite his reluctance.
Diana was taken aback. âSonâ¦â
âHuh?â
Diana choked on her saliva as she went on, âWhy do I find youâ¦rather schemingâ¦?â
The aura he exuded bore some resemblance to that of Julian.
Why did she think of that man�
Diana drove the ridiculous notion away from her mind, and looked at Sean.
The more she looked at himâ¦
The more she found him resembling Julian.
She was going crazy!
Diana patted her cheeks to sober up.
Even if what Nina said was true-even if she and Julian used to be husband and wifeâ¦
The DNA test results were clear. Sean and Betty werenât his.
Julian and his best friend had behaved as if she had betrayed Julian.
Her so-called betrayal was probably making a cuckold out of him.
It was merciful enough of him that he didnât take her life.
She could finally understand the disappointment and hopelessness on Julianâs face the day he saw the DNA test result.
However, she couldnât remember anything at all-why she betrayed him, and for whom she betrayed him.
Whatever it was, he made it clear he would never contact her ever again.
Perhaps that was best for both of them.
She shouldnât be thinking about him, or anything related to him at all.
âMommy.â Seanâs calm voice interrupted her thoughts.â Shall I go and get our meals?â
Diana nodded. âBe careful on your way, and donât get scalded by the food.â
Before she could say any further, a swarm of nurses flooded her room. âMs. Winnington, please donât worry. Weâll take Sean there.â
Sean pursed his lips unhappily upon seeing so many women in the ward, but the moment he lifted his head, there was an angelic look on his face. âSure, thank you so much!â
âOh, heâs such a good boy!â
âQuick! Let me pinch his little cheeks!â
âSo smooth! So tender! So soft!â
Diana heard the nursesâ shrieks and thought about the fake smile on her sonâs face. It was both funny and heartbreaking at the same time.
Her cocky and cool son seemed to have grown up overnight. He had learned how to come to a compromise.
