Chapter 938
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
v Seeing Simonâs face, fear crept up Kikiâs heart.
She had always felt that Simon was far crazier than her. Still, this wasnât exactly a bad thing for her.
Kiki suppressed the ridiculous thought of Simon being Doreenâs father. She swallowed past her constricted throat in a bid to calm her wild thoughts down. âThen, nowâ¦â
âIâll definitely be able to contact that hypnotist,â Simon insisted.
No one was better at hypnosis than that man.
Despite Diana returning to a familiar environment and receiving so many triggers, she still couldnât recall her part.
She only fell in love with Julian once more.
That thought pierced Simonâs heart like a thousand needles.
How exactly was he inferior to Julian Fulcher?!
It had been three years.
He had watched over Diana for three years. It was nothing compared to the three months Julian spent with her!
Back at CoIlina Villa, things werenât going smoothly for Noel.
He found many hypnotists and brought them all to Diana. However, each attempt ended in failure.
They all told him that the hypnotist who worked on Diana was very skilled. The only way to release Dianaâs locked-up memories was to find him.
The problem was that without her original memories, Diana couldnât remember who hypnotized her in the first place. If she couldnât recognize him, they wouldnât be able to find him.
It was a dead end.
Noel shrunk back as he meekly raised a suggestion to Julian. âSir? Why donât weâ¦ask Madam to seduce Simon like what you did with Kiki?â
Most likely, Simon was one of those who knew the truth.
When Noel saw Julian seriously considering his idea, he grew bolder, and went on, âKiki has already fallen into your trap once. We can only pin our hopes on Simon.â
âSirâ¦? Are you listening to me?â
Julian nodded. âYes, I am.â
Noel looked awkward. âThen⦠Why arenât you responding to me?â
âIâm thinking.â
Noel was slightly happy. âDo you think that my idea is feasible, sir?â
âFeasible.â
Julianâs long fingers tapped against the table, his gaze slicing through the air like a knife. It sent chills down Noelâs spine, and he stood stiff on the spot.
Julian glared at Noel, and said firmly, âIâm just not sure if youâre willing to be sent to Adorn for another year.â
Noel was stunned. âWhat has that got to do with this?â
Julian sneered. âOh, theyâre completely related. If you dare come up with lousy ideas again, I wonât just ship you there for a year. Iâll make sure you stay there for the rest of your life!â
At that, Noel no longer dared to speak. He was worried about his own life.
Julian wasnât in the mood to joke around with Noel and instructed, âLetâs wait it out. Since we canât find the right one in the country, search abroad.â
He didnât believe for a second that only the one who hypnotized Diana could release her memories.
Surely, a skilled hypnotist could do the same.
One month passed, and the hypnotists from abroad didnât even dare to try. The moment they heard about Dianaâs condition, they refused to come.
They claimed that no one could hypnotize Diana to the point she couldnât remember a single thing.
And so, things had come to a dead end once more.
Even Diana began suggesting having a chat with Simon.
However, she couldnât bring herself to seduce him. Even until now, she refused to believe that Simon was involved in hypnotizing her.
âI did doubt and misunderstand him in the past,â she said,â but I wonât do that now.â
She thought about it and concluded that hypnotizing her brought Simon no benefits whatsoever.
To assume he had done so because he wanted her was even more ridiculous.
