Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Diana always felt that the chemistry they shared was an essential element of their marriage.

This remained valid even until now.

Perhaps it wasn’t an essential element of marriage, but rather an essential element of relationships.

As long as they were physically drawn to each other, then…

Diana could feel herself going mad.

Why did her mind keep veering in this direction?

Even when she tried shutting her eyes, the image of Julian’s stubble would flash past her mind.

Right now, he looked as if he hadn’t shaved for a few days. That wasn’t like him at all.

How could a clean freak like him allow himself to become so scruffy?

She glanced at his hands. The scar was there.

The words the security guard said to her at the cemetery resounded in her mind once more.

When she had disappeared while still pregnant with the twins, she wasn’t the only one who suffered pain and hopelessness.
