Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 996

Diana's eyes showed her stubbornness.

At that moment, Julian looked at her.He wanted to say something, but nothing concrete came to mind.

Then, he remembered that he had already agreed to the engagement with the Jarvis family.

The moment he brought Cecilia back home, there was no point pursuing the thought that crossed his mind—no matter what it was.

"You have your responsibilities, and I have mine," he said.

Things had come to this point; whether he genuinely loved Cecilia, or simply felt a sense of responsibility toward her.

There was no reason for him to give up on Cecilia, who had already lost her senses.

Diana thought so as well—but when she had to face up to reality, all she could think about was Julian looking tenderly at Cecilia, helping the latter straighten the hem of her shirt with a bright smile.

"You and my brother..." Julian started.

Meanwhile, Simon had heard about Cecilia moving into Collina Villa.

Things were getting lively here, with him and Cecilia moving in.

They were killing all hopes of Diana and Julian remarrying.

Joy filled Simon’s heart.
