Chapter 886
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Guess Diana wasnât so heartless after all.
She didnât use her excuse of amnesia to claim that she forgot about Aster and Starâs death anniversary.
Julianâs eyes were sharp as an eagle, piercing right through Diana.
Diana found it ridiculous. She had just helped him make Cecilia happy, yet here he was, glaring at her.
But she was in a good mood, so she decided to ignore him.
She was very satisfied with Ceciliaâs dress.
She had slogged the entire day, and had done a great job with the groundwork. Next up, she would officially go into plate-making before rushing out the dress. She would be very busy next week.
The thought of her burying herself in work made her feel guilty toward her children. She hurriedly hugged the twins.â Mommyâs back. Did you miss me?â
Julian stood next to them. Seeing Diana treat the twins with such tender, loving care reduced his anger.
Although she had let him down, she treated the twins excellently.
For all he knew, she wanted to take the chance of Aster and Starâs death anniversary to come clean to himâthat she didnât actually lose her memories.
He had no idea what tricks she had up her sleeves.
However, he would take things as they come. He was ready to deal with her. Anyway, everything was under his control. What trouble could Diana really cause?
Julian couldnât help but chuckle at the thought.
Diana heard a sound above her head, and looked up to see Julianâs face right above her.
What a madman!
Why did he sneer at her? Was he bothered by her playing with the twins?
Still, Betty was right there. The doctor had reminded them to create a relaxed environment at home for the twins. She couldnât go crazy like Julian did. She would tolerate it.
As such, she returned his disdainful sneer with a kind smile.
Her smile was so warm, it pierced right through the layer of coldness over Julianâs heart. He hurried upstairs immediately, as if he was fleeing for his life.
After calming down, he called Noel and ordered, âNoel, send Ms. Jarvis a gift.â
He hadnât been a good host to her today. He wasnât sure whether Diana said anything she shouldnât have, either. He was busy earlier, and had no chance to go out and stop them from talking to each other.
Even so, that was no way to behave as the host.
Noel was stunned for a moment. âAre you sure you meant Ms. Jarvis, and not Ms. Winnington?â
Julian was almost rendered speechless. âWhy would I send that woman a gift? Are you getting dull in the head now that Fulcher Inc. lacks competitors?â
Noel explained in a hurry, âN-No. I thought that since you two were staying together, youâve reconciled.â
Diana was such a lovely woman. In Noelâs opinion, no one aside from her was more suited to be Mrs.
Fulcher.
âReconcile?â Julian laughed. âNoel, are you dreaming? Diana and I will never reconcile, not ever in this life!â
He was going to pursue Cecilia Jarvis officially right now!
He had to demonstrate his sincerity!
âSend Ms. Jarvis jewelry,â Julian said after a momentâs thought. âIt must be one-of-a-kind. When you give it to her, tell her that I personally picked it.â
When Cecilia received Julianâs gift, she was ecstatic.
It was a pink diamond of superior quality. A ring of diamonds surrounded it, and it shimmered around her neck.
Everyone in the Jarvis family crowded around her to look at the necklace.
Sue Chimmery, Ceciliaâs mother, leaned over and teased her with a smile. âCecilia, what do you think Mr. Fulcher means by giving you something so expensive?â
Cecilia cupped her cheeks. âMom, donât look at me like that!â
Sue said, âAw, canât I look at you now that youâre all grown up?â
âNo.â Cecilia took the necklace off and placed it back into the box carefully. âI justâ¦feel rather shy.â
She had just left the Fulchers, where Diana had said so much to her.
And now, Julian sent someone to deliver jewelry to her.
