Julian’s Stand-In Wife Chapter 697

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Last night, Julian sounded like he was in a terrible state. Even through the phone, it pained Diana

deeply.

But Simon insisted on having breakfast together.

Helpless, Diana could only agree.

However, even the luxurious and rich breakfast food before her tasted bland to her. The sandwiches

Julian made for her were much more delicious.

After sleeping on it, she had fully accepted that Simon and Julian were brothers. Facing Simon now,

she felt their facial features didn’t resemble each other.

Rather, only their temperament was similar.

It seemed the men of the Fulcher family carried a touch of coldness to them. However, Julian appeared

more noble, while Simon looked more melancholic.

This was likely also due to their respective life experiences.

Diana thought of Simon’s attitude towards Madam Fulcher, and her heart couldn’t help but ache. She

was itching to ask Simon about the specific hidden circumstances behind his abandonment.

She was certain Madam Fulcher wasn’t such a heartless person to send Simon to the Channing family

just three hours after he was born.

However, Simon didn’t tell her.

“What hidden circumstances could there be?”

They just didn’t want him. It was that simple.

“Don’t think that old hag is a good person just because she was good to you. Someone who can hold

such a high position in the Channing family can’t be such a straightforward person.”

Having said that, Simon seemed to remember something and chuckled. “Didn’t she use her words to

manipulate Kayla too?”

If they didn’t want her to marry into the Fulcher family, they could have just said so.

Why deceive Kayla into going abroad in such a roundabout way?

As detestable as Kayla was, Madam Fulcher’s actions weren’t particularly upright.

Diana was stunned to hear his reasoning. Although she didn’t like it, she couldn’t find the words to

refute him. She ended up with a flushed face, red from her trying to hold back her anger.

In the end, she hurriedly took a few bites of her meal. “Can I leave now?”

She really didn’t want to stay here for even a minute.

“Sure,” Simon replied easily this time, not insisting for her to stay. “Go wherever you want.”

Whenever he thought about the person Julian longed for being by his side while the latter was forced to

spend the New Year alone…

Wait, Diana said it was staying up late on New Year’s Eve or whatever.

Well, either way, it elated him.

Now that Diana had finally obtained her freedom, she quickly made her way home, excited. Worried

that Julian would figure out the truth, she went through all the lies she had fabricated last night in her

mind. After ensuring that she wouldn’t reveal anything about Simon’s circumstances, she walked

towards the villa’s entrance.

“Julian, I’m home!” Diana called eagerly as soon as she entered the villa.

Soon, a servant came out. “Ma’am, the master went to work early in the morning. He’s not at home.”

Although they were curious about why Diana didn’t come back last night, no one dared to ask. Even if

the two of them had a disagreement, the servants could guess it in secret.

Diana remained ignorant, as the servant’s words coincidentally confirmed what Simon had said about

the reason behind Julian’s unhappiness.

“It seems the situation at the company is really bad.”

Otherwise, why would he be busy working on New Year’s Day?

Diana was somewhat frustrated that she couldn’t help Julian with his work. She could only think about

not causing any trouble for him, and so obediently went back to her room to wait for him to return.

However, before she even reached the living room, she noticed several white lumps next to the trash

bin.

Curious, she approached and took a closer look. Weren’t those the pastries she had personally made?

Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly called for a servant. “Didn’t Julian eat these pastries last

night?”

“No,” the servant said, feeling regretful as well. “Since you weren’t here, he probably didn’t find it

pleasant to eat alone. He waited for you until midnight, but when the clock struck twelve…you still

hadn’t returned.”

As the servant spoke, the image of Julian sitting alone in the living room came back to mind.

Such a handsome man.

Yet, so lonely.

Anyone would feel sorry for him. When the servant spoke to Diana again, it was with a hint of reproach.

“The master waited for you the entire time, Ma’am. How could you not return on such an important

night as New Year’s Eve?”
