Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 970

Before she reunited with Julian, she was clearly doing well in Stirling City.

She was independent, self-assured, and confident. She didn’t know when it happened, but she began becoming reliant on Julian. It was an addiction she couldn’t remove herself from.

This time, she would never give in to him!

She would never, ever rely on him for comfort and peace of mind!

Meanwhile, Julian was in bed and staring at the ceiling in the master bedroom. The look in Cecilia’s eyes and her bony arms flashed in his mind non-stop.

Her arms were covered with injection marks and bruises. Clearly, she wouldn’t have survived without getting hooked up to the nutrient solution.

Julian had asked Sue for details about Cecilia’s condition. She told him that Cecilia would usually behave crazily at home.

A bright and kind young lady like her would suddenly scream at the wall and her clothes, and call them vixens.

Sometimes, when Sue entered the room, Cecilia wouldn’t even recognize Sue as her mother. She would just keep yelling at Sue, and call Sue a vixen.
