Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1019

With Simon around, Diana couldn’t fully let go.

She had to suppress her happiness. She needed to take Simon’s feelings into account.

“You go and play with the kids. I’ll stay here with Simon,” she said.

“It’s okay. The attractions they’re playing are child-friendly. I’ve arranged for an assistant to watch over them, so safety won’t be an issue. You can go play on that one.”

Julian pointed to the carousel.

“We’ll be waiting for you outside the carousel. You can see me and Simon anytime.”

“That’s right,” Simon said. “You’re already here. Won’t you be disappointed if you don’t go on any of the rides? Go ahead.”

He smiled. “My brother and I will be waiting here. Just look up, and you’ll see us.”

This was Simon’s way of saying he was fine with Julian accompanying him.

When Simon called Julian his brother, Diana’s heart skipped a beat. She instinctively glanced at Julian. Fortunately, it seemed he was immune to the term now.

“Go ahead,” Julian said.
