Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 271

“Oh…” Kayla lowered her head, seemingly disappointed that Diana wasn’t here.

After less than a minute, tears fell down Kayla’s cheeks.

“Julian…”

She looked at the wounds covering her body as tears hung pitifully from the corners of her eyes.

“Don’t tell Diana about what happened to me. Otherwise, she’ll feel guilty about it. Today… She was supposed to come today, but since everyone knows about Michael, she probably felt scared about it and procrastinated a little in the office. Professionally speaking, I’m the leader of her design team. Privately speaking, I’m her sister, her family. I thought I should take her place in attending the dinner, since we resemble each other so closely. But I didn’t expect Diana to not come at all…”

Kayla began sobbing mid–sentence, so wracked with sorrow that she was unable to speak further.

It looked just like she had suffered a terrible betrayal.

She had effortlessly created the image of her heroically turning up for Diana’s appointment on her behalf, whereas Diana had left Kayla in the lurch because of her fear of Michael.

Despite that, Kayla was still defending Diana and thinking for her.

Julian’s heart ached for Kayla as he looked at the wounds on her body.
