Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 508

To prevent Kayla from screaming, Oliver had taped her mouth shut.

It could be said that Kayla was like a fish on Diana’s chopping board, just waiting to be slaughtered.

When Kayla caught sight of Diana, her eyes widened and she began to whimper.

She struggled violently, as if she had something to say.

On the other hand, Diana was in no hurry. She waited until she could thank Oliver properly, and walked him to the elevator before returning to her apartment.

When she came back into the room, she was holding a brocade box. Inside was a safety charm Oliver had told her about.

He had agreed to bring Kayla here on the condition that Diana promised to keep herself safe, but that he would also provide some safety to her in the form of this charm.

Oliver had thought of everything for her.

Yes, there were still many people in this world who cared about her.

Diana felt a burst of warmth in her heart. When she thought about Oliver’s solemn expression, she put the brocade box carefully in her pocket.

Then, she reached out to tear the tap off Kayla’s mouth.
