Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 34

Julian was enraged. “Reminding you with my presence? Do you think I care about fifteen million dollars?”

“Don’t you?” Diana seemed very calm in comparison. “If you didn’t care, why did you want me to repay you?

Diana did have plans to return the fifteen million dollars to him, but she thought she would take her time to do it. She wasn’t expecting Julian to threaten her into paying him back.

“Because!” Julian immediately stopped himself. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was an air of superiority about him. Suddenly, he changed his mind.

“Why should I tell you?”

Diana chuckled. “It doesn’t matter.”

Anyway, the fact he was forcing her to repay him proved he didn’t want the best for her.

He was simply trying to make life difficult for her. She was certain he was merely punishing her on behalf of the woman who had been pointlessly waiting for her all morning.

“Don’t worry,” Diana said after taking a deep breath. She suppressed her sadness as she spoke. “I won’t go back on my words. I’ll definitely repay you fifteen million dollars within a month.”

She wanted to spare Julian the trouble of being present and thinking of ways to remind her of the unhappy incident yesterday.
