Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 501

“You already know the answer to that. Why bother asking?”

That sentence easily summed up all the bitterness in Diana’s heart.

“At first, I planned to die with Kayla today. That’s why I bought the knife. I even slashed her face. I only needed to exert a little more force, and I could’ve cut a major artery on her neck…”

Diana said it without any hint of remorse or regret. Rather, her only regret was that she had never done such a brutal thing before, and that she had been too slow to plunge the knife into Kayla’s neck.

“Diana…” Nina was choked up, and her heart ached fiercely. “You should’ve contacted me as soon as possible.”

Diana shouldn’t have had to be alone in such a situation.

“I can handle myself,” Diana said as she pulled Nina away from the doorway. “Even if you were with me, I wouldn’t have asked you to do anything. I don’t want anything to happen to you.”

In fact, if Nina had been there, Diana would be in a tougher situation and even more restricted. She was afraid Kayla and Julian would retaliate against Nina and hurt her friend.

But if Diana faced them alone, she was ready to take responsibility for whatever that would follow.
