Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 280

With that thought in mind, he retracted his gaze from Kayla. “If it hurts, go take a rest.‘

He walked to the first aid kit and retrieved the medical ointment. He poured Kayla a cup of warm water, and made sure that everything that she needed was within reach.

He looked just like a caring and thoughtful boyfriend.

That was how he used to treat Diana.

Yet now, he was treating another woman in the same way, right in front of Diana.

He even threatened her for the sake of another woman.

Diana’s heart began throbbing with pain again. She was unable to see more, and took a deep breath before quietly leaving the room.

Thankfully, the besotted couple didn’t seem to notice where she went.

Diana heaved a sigh of relief, and hailed a taxi back to the villa.

After Diana left, Julian stood by the window and personally watched until she entered a taxi. He took a photo of the car plate, and instructed Noel to track her location in real–time and ensure her safety before finally leaving Kayla’s ward.

Right now, he was in no mood to stay by Kayla’s side and take care of her.

First things first, he had to get to the bottom of the matter.

In fact, he was going to see Michael Gibson right now.

Julian was no longer in a rush to punish Michael; he wanted to first and foremost ask about Kayla’s state when she first appeared at the hotel.
