Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 667

To think Clifford dared attack her so openly!

Diana immediately suspected that he probably held one of Julian’s weaknesses. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the guts to treat her like this.

With that thought in mind, she decided not to resist.

When she was by Julian’s side, she was a petite woman who needed to be pampered and comforted. Once he wasn’t around, she was a strong and independent woman.

Diana furrowed her brows slightly, her gaze appearing particularly sharp. She made an effort to calm herself down.

“Sure.”

If she agreed to Clifford’s demands, Julian wouldn’t be threatened no matter what cards Clifford held. All she had to do was wait for Julian to come back. He had promised to return before the new year, and now, there were only two days left until New Year’s Eve.
