Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 314

Seeing that Diana was really embarrassed, he stopped teasing her and took the bowl of soup Mr. Carter handed him.

It was Greek lemon soup, which was especially good for pregnant women. He had checked the recipe personally and asked the chef to make it.

When Julian took the bowl, Mr. Carter’s heart was on edge. He was afraid Julian would keep that bowl for himself. Fortunately, the bowl with the drug in it eventually reached Diana.

She took a sip. “It tastes good.”

Soon, the bowl was empty.

Mr. Carter breathed a sigh of relief inwardly, and relaxed.

“Please enjoy your dinner, sir, ma’am. Feel free to call me if you need anything else.”

When Julian heard this, he raised his brows and shot Mr. Carter a sharp look.

All of a sudden, Mr. Carter felt like there were thousands of knives above his head. The pressure was so intense that he almost couldn’t lift his head. He couldn’t think of what to say in this situation, and prayed fervently that Julian couldn’t tell what was on his mind.
