Chapter 939
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
If he wanted her, he wouldnât have let her give birth to the twins. Instead, he wouldâve taken advantage of her amnesia and lied to her all the way to her deathbed.
In fact, that was what Simon regretted the most. At that point, his heart softened. He was now struggling to find that hypnotist, so he could earn for himself another chance.
Yet, he didnât expect it to be so challenging.
âHow did you contact him in the past?â Kiki asked.
Making Diana vanish from Richburgh again was her wish, too. She was just as anxious as Simon.
âI didnât exactly contact him,â Simon said.
He pondered about it for a moment, and began to realize that something was wrong. Fear filled his eyes as he slowly turned to look at Kiki. He told her a frightening fact that he had neglected all this while.
âHe⦠He reached out to me first.â
The problem was, why would someone so skilled reach out to Simon? That man even gave such a precise suggestion to hypnotize Diana.
Kiki didnât think much of it. âLetâs just wait and see.â
Whatever it was, to her, whoever wanted to harm Diana was her friend.
âFor all you know, he might resurface again.â
She was correct-he did resurface. But this time, Julian was the one he sought out.
In the deep of the night, all was quiet in CoIlina Villa.
Summer was coming to an end, and the leaves on the trees were turning yellow. Everything looked depressing and lonesome. The dark night added a chilling aura to the villaâs surroundings.
Just then, the security guard in the guard house realized that a man was standing right outside the villa.
He was wearing a fitted black suit. It almost made him blend into the darkness of the night, if one didnât look closely enough.
A hundred meters away from him, a silver Porsche drove off in the silence-like the tail of a cat slinking away.
Chad was the first to notice him. He immediately turned the floodlights at the door on.
âWho are you?!â Chad demanded.
Anyone behaving sneakily outside the entrance at such an hour was surely not a good person!
Upon closer look, he sensed that the man wore expensive clothes.
Before Chad became a security guard at CoIlina Villa, he had spent a lot of time in various districts. He had a penchant for being extraordinarily observant.
Chad realized that the cheaper the real estate of a district, the more crumpled the clothes the people there wore. Even new clothes looked old and dirty.
On the other hand, districts with more expensive houses were filled with people who wore well-fitted and ironed-out clothes.
As for rare villas like that of Julianâs, the visitors were always very well-dressed. Even if carry it off with an air of elegance and charm.
Afterward, Chad concluded that it had nothing to do with clothes.
It was money. Money could solve a commonerâs problems with ease. It functioned as an iron that smoothed all troubles, much like how a real iron could neaten an outfit.
To put it simplyâmoney maketh man.
Right now, the man standing right at Collina Villaâs entrance had that expensive aura about him.
Without any hesitation, Chad immediately rang Julianâs room. He didnât even bother questioning the stranger. âSir, I think you have an important guest.â
Who could it be at this hour? Julian immediately stood up and headed to the living room without delay.
âLet him in.â
The heavy metal gate gradually opened. The stranger walked slowly to the living room, as if crossing over into another century.
Matt Hughes spoke first, a confident smile on his lips. âMr. Fulcher.â
Julianâs eyes turned sharp. Something immediately clicked in his mind, and he concluded excitedly, âYouâre that hypnotist!â
Surprised flashed past Mattâs eyes. He didnât expect Julian to guess so accurately.
His boss was right. Julian was a tough rival, indeed.
