Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 329

Diana looked up, discontent and shock finally showing in her eyes.

Those were what she was truly feeling.

At this moment, she was not happy.

Julian wanted to pretend he didn’t see her emotions, but he didn’t like how she forced herself to smile. It made his throat feel like it was stuffed with rocks, and his heart felt tight.

He placed his hands gently on Diana’s head and continued softly, “Diana, I’m your husband. You can be honest with me. Laugh if you’re happy, cry if you’re sad, and curse if you’re upset. You don’t have to put up an act with me, and you don’t have to pretend to feel what you’re not.”

His voice was loud and clear, and every word he said pierced Diana’s heart deeply.

The things he told her to do were things she could only do if she was sure she was loved and favored by the man standing before her.

But right now, she wasn’t confident that he did.
