Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1085

Julian held back his laughter. He put back the disinfecting lotion into the first aid kit.

“That’s great! Betty’s so strong and brave! Daddy doesn’t need to give Betty an injection anymore.”

“Yes!” Betty nodded repeatedly, feeling that she had escaped death. She even waved her hands at Julian, worried that staying in the car a minute longer would make him think of giving her an injection again. “I’ll go find Mommy myself, then.”

She had long grown familiar with Nina’s place. Even if no one picked her up, she could make her way around this estate by herself.

Ever since she acknowledged Julian as her father, she had attended many self-defense classes—something members of wealthy families often insisted upon.

Julian wasn’t worried that anything could happen to Betty right under his nose.

He waved his hands. “Go ahead, but don’t forget what you promised Daddy…”

He deliberately stopped mid-sentence, waiting for Betty to complete his sentence and tell him that she promised not to tell Diana he had sent her here.
