Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 17

Diana’s mind had grown numb.

She could only clutch her lower abdomen tightly as tears streamed down her eyes.

It was a heartbreak that deprived her of all sanity, leaving her with only a mother’s instinct.

Her baby…

She was about to lose her baby!

This was the baby she had been looking forward to for so long!

Yet, he was about to be brutally murdered by his own father!

In her desperation, Diana seemed to have been endowed with infinite strength as she lunged toward Julian.

She jumped over the many doctors and pounced directly on Julian.

She hated him!

She hated the fact that Julian had turned a blind eye to her pleas for help when he was right beside her, and chose that woman instead of her over and over again!

Were it not for that, she wouldn’t have fallen into a coma due to a simple cold. He wouldn’t have found out that she was pregnant, and she would be able to protect her baby!

Diana clenched her teeth in anger. Hatred and resentment toward Julian filled her as she recalled his cruel tone when he announced that the baby must die. “Why did you marry me in the first place if you don’t love me? Why did you treat me so well during our marriage?!”

He let her think that she was the happiest woman in the world, but it was in fact all just a joke. A big, sick joke!

She punched the man in front of her frantically, fury and rage boiling within her as she yelled, “You’re heartless! You’re completely heartless!”

Julian, meanwhile, was a little confused.

It was true he let her down last night.

He shouldn’t have assumed that he could relax when her fever subsided. No one would have expected Diana to be suffering from type B influenza rather than a common cold. This disease mostly attacked the elderly, children, and pregnant women, with repeated high fever and body aches as the main symptoms.

Although Diana didn’t belong to those groups, her physique was indeed really weak.

Julian knew he shouldn’t have let Vans leave last night.

But no matter how much he tried to comfort Diana, she remained agitated. She seemed to be in a trance as tears streamed down her face.

Julian was puzzled. He grabbed her hand and yelled, “Diana! You’re getting too agitated!”
