Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 311

Diana was amazed as she listened to Madam Fulcher recount the past.

“Fate is amazing.”

She married Julian because of how similar her face had looked to Kayla, but he had actually chosen her rather

than his first love.

“That’s right,” Madam Fulcher agreed and solemnly said, “You’re not anyone’s substitute. You’re your own person and a unique existence in my heart. You’re my granddaughter–in–law!”

Now knowing that Madam Fulcher had been part of the reason Diana had walked this path, Diana somehow felt a new level of closeness with the older woman.

“Thank you, Grandma.”

Diana was grateful from the bottom of her heart.

Not only was she grateful for Madam Fulcher treating her so well, but also for giving her and Julian a chance.

“But… I really can’t tell what Julian thinks of Kayla and me.”

“That’s not important,” Madam Fulcher said, trying to guide Diana slowly in this mindset. “As long as you take these shares and pick up designing again, you’ll be fine. Men are only icing on the cake. They’re not the only thing in your life.”

Diana was surprised at Madam Fulcher’s modern take on arguments.

“You…know about my designs?”

“With all the clothes you’ve made for me over the years and the last design you made, I would be blind if I couldn’t see the depths of your skill,” Madam Fulcher replied with a smile.

Diana was still confused. “But Julian’s your grandson. Is it really okay for you to tell me all this?”

“Of course it is,” Madam Fulcher said, looking into Diana’s apprehensive eyes. “Oh, you look like a little squirrel right now! You’re adorable.”

She pinched Diana’s cheeks lightly and her smile widened. “You’re such a delight.”

When Madam Fulcher’s husband, both of them entertained the thought of having a daughter. But the day she gave birth to Julian’s father, she had a hemorrhage on the operating table. After that, she was told she would never be able to have children again.

Thus, the dream of having a daughter was impossible.

“I’d love it even more if you could give me a great–granddaughter,” Madam Fulcher said, quickly changing the subject as she looked at Diana’s stomach. “It’d be wonderful if they were twins of different genders. That would be a complete set.”

Diana was armused at how fast Madam Fulcher was at switching topics..
