Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 558

Seeing how anxious Diana was, Julian felt the same sense of urgency as well. “One minute.”

He tapped away on his phone screen as he sent a text to Noel. Noel immediately understood him without any further questions. One minute later, he replied, “Done.”

Julian showed Diana the text. Although Diana had always known that Julian was quick and decisive, she didn’t expect him to be efficient to this extent.

She immediately felt a weight lifted from her shoulders. “Thank you.”

Julian didn’t need her to thank him, and didn’t want to hear it from her. He wished she would simply take it for granted when he did things for her.

That would prove that things between them have returned to how they were in the past.

Yet, he knew full well that it was impossible for them to return to the past.

They could only start anew.

“If you really want to thank me, are those two words enough?” His words were like a weight hanging above her head, so heavy that she couldn’t bring herself to lift her head up.

Diana bit her lips, “What do you want, then?”
