Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 652

If it weren’t for the fact that she had given birth to Diana, or for the noodles, Kate wouldn’t even have the chance to come into the villa’s porch.

Kate was shocked by the cold look on Diana’s face, which clearly told of the fact that Diana had no intention whatsoever to treat her like a mother.

Fury tainted her face red.

She didn’t even feel so cold anymore. Her head buzzed as she screamed, “What do you know? Your father and I are suffering right now, cowering in that lousy place and eating terrible food! Doesn’t your heart ache one bit for us?”

“Eating terrible food?” Diana recalled her old memories. Her tone was gentle despite the harsh words she was about to say. “I’m sure that food still tastes great. After all, it was my staple food when I was young. Now that I’m with Julian, he’s not used to eating such food and prefers fancier delicacies and feasts. Even his vegetables are flown directly from Switzerland. Now that you’ve mentioned it, I rather miss the taste of that food I used to enjoy.”

Diana was deliberately reminding Kate the terrible life she suffered in her youth, as well as showing Kate the great contrast between the miserable life she and James were leading compared to the delightful and luxurious life Diana was enjoying.

Diana wasn’t leaving Kate any dignity, nor was she intending to offer Kate any form of help or consolation.

Kate’s face went black, and she no longer wanted to speak any further.
