Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 694

Diana needed to give herself and Julian some time. She needed to figure out how to tell Julian that Simon was his biological brother, but she couldn’t let him hear it from someone else. That was the only way she could minimize the blow to him.

It was almost midnight, but Diana had yet to return.

The pastries on the table had turned cold, and they looked pitifully flat on the plates. Combined with Julian’s gloomy expression, it all looked depressing.

But no one dared to ask how to handle the situation.

In the end, Julian ordered in a low voice, “Dump it all.”

The servant was hesitant. “What about the ones that ma’am personally made…”

His emotions were hidden beneath his long, thick lashes. His voice sounded low and restrained as he spoke again,” Don’t leave anything out.”

Instantly, everything was cleared away, and the food was dumped into the trash.

At the same moment, when the clock struck twelve, Diana hurriedly sent the message in the conversation box that had been kept on her screen. It was a simple message: [Happy New Year, Julian.]
