Chapter 941
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
This was something she wanted to do so badly for a long time. Yet now, she found herself holding back.
âIs this man really the one who hypnotized me three years ago?â she asked.
So many hypnotists had visited her, but they all left defeated. Was this man really going to help her regain her memories?
Julian could sense that Diana was slightly nervous. He could understand why.
For someone who had lost her memories for three years, it was akin to losing over twenty years of her life. She needed time to pick up all the pieces of her past-all the sad, happy, and bitter moments of her life.
âI was hasty,â Julian said.
He didnât want to force Diana. His dark eyes were crystal clear, like a blue sky with clouds. The look in his eyes could calm and soothe anyone. Yet at the same time, there was infinite darkness in them.
That was Mattâs conclusion after spending an entire night with Julian in the car. He didnât know if he and his masterâs plan could still go through.
And so, he said in a heavy voice, âTruly.â
There was a mysterious look on Julianâs face. He was smiling slightly, and he kept staring at Matt.
âEat,â he urged.
He looked warm and hospitable on the outside, but Matt knew that his smile hid unknown intentions.
This man was unfathomable, indeed.
The night they met, Julian only pinpointed Mattâs identity as a hypnotist. Aside from that, he said nothing. After that, he immediately brought Matt to see Diana.
And now, he kept urging Matt to eat.
On the other hand, Diana and Julian didnât eat or drink a single thing.
The more Matt thought about it, the more he began to doubt. He feared Julian would harm him.
Subconsciously, he placed his fork back on the table.
âMr. Fulcher, Iâm already full.â
Julian nodded, and turned to look at Diana. âWhen do you want to start undoing the hypnosis and get back your memories?â
Diana had her own plans, and she needed time to mentally prepare herself. âLetâs wait for a bit more.
Maybe after I send Sean to kindergarten.â
Julian nodded again. âIâll go with you.â
He turned to Matt. âPlease wait here a little longer. We need to make a trip to the kindergarten first.â
Matt wondered if he had overestimated Julian Fulcher. He kept thinking that Julian was unpredictable.
Yet, Julian didnât seem as shrewd as he thought.
In fact⦠He sensed that Julian was quite stupid.
Julian seemed to have lowered his guard completely before the unfamiliar hypnotist who suddenly appeared before him.
Back then, Simon was like that too.
When Matt appeared at a time Simon needed him the most, Simon trusted him wholeheartedly.
It was the same now, too.
Matt just needed to send Simon a text, saying he could fulfill Simonâs wish once more. That fool would probably help him willingly.
There was nothing to fear about these two brothers.
Matt stared at the floor for a while. In the end, he couldnât hold himself back from looking at Diana. His eyes held disdain, respect, and expectation at the same time. That look made Diana uneasy.
After Diana took Sean out of his room, she asked Julian, â Have you looked into that man? Is there no problem with him?â
She kept having a strange feeling about Matt.
âI didnât,â Julian said, âbut heâs definitely the one who hypnotized you.â
âWhat makes you so sure?â she asked.
After being disappointed so many times, Diana didnât want to fail again.
âBecauseâ¦â he began.
He took a seat in the back, and folded his legs together. He leaned backward, and covered Seanâs eyes with one hand. Then, he pointed to his cheek.
âKiss me, and Iâll tell you.â
Dianaâs face fell at once.
