Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1520

To their surprise, upon returning home, they were greeted with unexpected joy that somewhat alleviated the grief and helplessness from Simon’s demise.

Diana’s face was radiant with genuine delight.

“Sean!”

As soon as she opened the door, a little boy rushed towards her, wrapping Diana in a tight embrace.

“Mommy!”

It had been so long since they were apart. Sean’s eyes welled up with tears.

Turning his gaze upwards, Sean looked at Julian and remarked cheekily, “Hey, lousy dad.”

Julian blinked, taken aback. Had he offended this little troublemaker?

“He said you upset Mommy,” Sean recounted, referring to what he had heard from Lucas.

Julian’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Are you telling me you’re really the one who sabotaged my company’s computer system?!”

Sean nodded confidently. “You weren’t treating Mommy right, so I thought you needed a lesson!”

Julian was left speechless.

With both Sean and Betty around, Diana was in high spirits. She was constantly surrounded by her two little treasures, leaving Julian with hardly any chance to converse with her.

It wasn’t until nighttime, after Julian had prepared a bath for Diana, that he finally managed to secure some alone time with his wife.

Diana, immersed in the bathtub, looked at him playfully.” Aren’t you leaving?”

Julian stood beside the tub. “Just want to chat a bit.”

He simply wanted to be close to her.

Noticing the moisture in the bathroom, Diana tapped the edge of the tub. “Why don’t you join me?”

For a split second, Julian’s eyes darkened. “You’re playing with fire.”

Diana realized the implication, and glanced at her prominent pregnancy belly.

She stuck out her tongue playfully, resembling an adorable bunny.

“Sorry, Julian. You’ll have to wait a bit longer.”

Under normal circumstances, certain intimate activities would be acceptable and gentle. However, Diana was carrying twins. It would be more prudent to wait until after childbirth.

Julian averted his gaze, making a vague sound of acknowledgment. He grabbed a bath sponge, applied shower gel, and lathered it until it was foamy. Gently, he began to clean Diana, treating her with utmost care as if she were the most precious gem to him.

Diana could sense his deep affection. Even without physical intimacy or any marital activities, she felt warmth and happiness she hadn’t felt in a long time.

“Thank you, Julian,” Diana expressed sincerely, “thank you for giving me such a wonderful life and such amazing children.”

“You mean your wonderful son,” Julian said, with a hint of frustration. “Do you have any idea why I was delayed in Jacroaof? It was because Sean tampered with the company’s system!This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I was worried that if anything happened to the company, it might be traced back to you, especially since you’re the actual shareholder. I couldn’t just leave without ensuring everything was fixed. That’s why I took so long to get there.”

Even the issue with his identification card not allowing him to purchase a ticket was because of Betty’s mischief. After Jim’s death and Madam Hughes’ arrest, a lot came to light.

This included details about the training camp, leading to the conclusion that Leonard’s death was due to consuming harmful substances.

In any case, all these matters were intertwined with the Hughes family. Julian had made it clear that he held grudges against them.

Their irregularities in the drug development process, combined with Madam Hughes’s disregard for human life, soon caught the attention of the authorities.
