Chapter 907
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
Diana finally relaxed after Julian said that.
Before, she saw a rare look of anxiety in his eyes. She thought he might be plotting something against her again- especially when he appeared with that disheveled attire, and his alluring collarbone glistening with droplets of water.
She almost thought he wanted to seduce herâ¦
Listening to his explanations, she understood.
His goal was never her. The children were the only remaining link between them, the only point of intersection.
She mustnât let her imagination run wild. Otherwise, she might end up hurt once again at some point.
Forget about any seduction or ulterior motives. She just hoped he wouldnât plot against her.
âItâs settled,â Diana said, still uncertain, emphasizing once again, âI wonât go anywhere.â
Leaving the capital wasnât an option. Leaving this room wasnât an option. This was the closest place to her childrenâs rooms.
Vansâs plan of having Julian charm her with his handsome appearance had failed. Julian felt a bit defeated hearing Dianaâs words, which seemed to revolve around not leaving the children.
He buttoned up his clothes somewhat irritatedly. âI got it.â
The toilet had been fixed.
She could do as she pleased.
As long as she stayed in this villa, he would bide his time. There would eventually come a day when he could win her back.
Nina looked at Julian, who had specifically invited her for coffee. His face was full of humility.
She couldnât help but tease, âNot arrogant anymore? You donât doubt that Diana and me faked her amnesia anymore?â
For someone as intelligent as him, how could he repeatedly stumble in matters of the heart?
Julian chuckled awkwardly. âActually, there are still some uncertain areas. There isnât any definitive or ironclad evidence to prove Dianaâs amnesia right now.â
When Nina heard this, the smile on her face instantly disappeared. She picked up her bag, ready to leave.
However, Julian quickly stopped her and said hastily, âIâm not saying this to doubt her. I just want to uncover the person who harmed her in the past. We can only restore her memories once those people are exposed.â
In truth, he now firmly believed in Dianaâs amnesia. After all, he was a meticulous person. He reached this conclusion after numerous analyses and deliberations. There would be no more variables in this matter.
Nina slowly sat down, and Julian quickly replaced her coffee with pleasantly surprised, feeling a sense of pride as a relative in front of the renowned Mr.
Fulcher for the first time. She couldnât help but take a photo to post on her social media, with the caption, âMr. Fulcher poured me coffee.â
After posting, she even showed it to Julian, asking, âIs it okay for me to post this?â
âWill Diana see it?â
âOf course.â
Both she and Diana paid special attention to each otherâs social media.
âNo problem,â Julian assured. He actually wished his presence would appear more around Diana.
Nina felt relieved, thinking that Julian was indeed sincere this time. He genuinely wanted to make amends to Diana, and help her discover who had caused her amnesia as well as recover her memories.
She regained her composure and asked, âWhy did you call me out today?â
âItâs nothing much,â Julian said. âI just wanted some advice on how to pursue a woman.â
âPursue a woman?â
An unnatural expression flashed across Julianâs face. âI only have eyes for Diana.â
âThen you shouldâve just asked how to pursue Diana.â
Nina was deeply annoyed with Julianâs stubbornness, even when faced with imminent danger. But as Dianaâs best friend and practically family, she had to maintain a certain attitude.
She said solemnly, âDiana isnât someone you can pursue just because you want to.â
Julianâs expression tightened.
Ninaâs sharp gaze caught his emotions, and she cleared her throat. âFor the things youâve done to her in the past and the many times youâve hurt her, how do you intend to make amends?â
âIâll make it up to herâ¦â Julian paused briefly, then said with determination, âwith the rest of my life.â
