Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1006

Noel bore under the torment while obediently serving Cecilia the food she requested.

When she felt happy, she even gave Betty a high-five.

Diana witnessed the heartwarming scene and felt like something was amiss, but she could not pinpoint what was wrong.

A thought crossed her mind that if Cecilia really were to recover from her condition, she might become fast friends with Betty.

As for Julian…

He would undoubtedly be a great father.

But no matter how good a father he was, it had nothing to do with her.

She retreated silently and told the kitchen staff that she wasn’t having dinner today. Instead, she would be bringing Simon out for dinner.

Simon saw how low her mood was throughout the afternoon and how she had avoided the twins for fear that they might notice the wounds on her body. That was why he suggested bringing her out for a meal and a breather.

Diana had no choice but to accept Simon’s suggestion.

Otherwise, he would definitely complain about his disability and being unable to do anything for her.

For the sake of his happiness and satisfaction, she would head out.
