Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 788

Julian was afraid the noise might disturb Sean, so he quickly answered the call and spoke softly, “I’m fine. I just had to tell Sean a few bedtime stories before he slept, so my throat is sore.”

Vans was surprised. “Bedtime stories?”

Did bedtime stories cause one to have a sore throat?

“Those kids are torturers, huh?”

Julian was upset when he heard Vans’s words. After all, he had always been a protective man.

“I wanted to let Betty torment me, but Sean didn’t let it happen. He said Betty was a girl, and he was vehemently guarded against me when it was bathtime.”

“They’re kinda young to be gender-conscious, aren’t they?” Vans mused, somewhat impressed with the two children.

“Of course not,” Julian said. “Did you forget who their parents are?”

Vans didn’t sound like he was inclined to forgive Diana anytime soon, even though he had been friends with her.
