Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 282

Why did Julian have to bring up the past? It made Diana’s heart throb in pain. By the time he finished treating the bruise, thirty minutes had passed.

Julian handled the wound carefully. When he was finished, the bruised area looked much better.

Diana only realized her wrist hurt badly after he was done, but she hadn’t felt it until now. The seriousness of her injury was more of an afterthought to her; she only realized how bad it was when Julian had finished applying the ointment.

“When I brought up the child, I didn’t mean it that way,” Julian suddenly said after a long stretch of silence. You don’t have to worry. I’ll make sure you deliver the babies safely.”

He would make sure she delivered the babies safely? Then, what would happen after that?

Diana’s heart skipped again. “You…want me to leave the children with the Fulcher family and kick me out? Alone?”

Diana was usually such an intelligent person; yet for some reason, she always went in the wrong direction regarding these matters. Julian was quite upset over how badly she thought of him.

But when he pondered about her question, he couldn’t answer. He didn’t want the babies to leave his family, nor did he want her to leave.

However, he also knew that Diana would think he was lying if he said that. It was to be expected, especially with how she was feeling at the moment.

Fearing she would accuse him as a liar, he kept mum.

It had taken Julian an awfully long time to finally figure out that his feelings for Kayla and Diana were different. Where Kayla was concerned, he simply wanted to be responsible and repay her for saving him. When it came to Diana, however, his heart would beat faster; he loved her and was quite possessive of her.
