Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 120

“Holy sh*t!” Nina was unable to hold back from cursing. “So James is planning to use that contract so that you’d owe the Winningtons thirteen million instead?”

“I think that’s his plan,” Diana said, exasperated. “He kept going on and on about how he wanted justice for himself and Kayla, but essentially…”

James had simply never seen Diana as his daughter.

It seemed the Winningtons would do anything to keep Kayla happy.

“That’s weird,” Nina said as she pondered over the flawed logic of the story. “No matter how angry James is, he should know that you want the money to pay Julian so that you can divorce him. Isn’t that exactly what the Winningtons want? But now that they’re not giving you the money, then…”

“I don’t know.” Diana shook her head. “Perhaps he thought I was being too outrageous when I said all those things. There’s also Kayla’s throat…”

Before Diana could finish, she spotted a luxury car stop at the hospital’s entrance.

It was a sleek, black Rolls Royce; one of Julian’s cars.

Suddenly conscious of which department they were in, Diana immediately turned around nervously. “Nina! Julian and Kayla are here!”
