Julian’s Stand-In Wife

What first caught Julian’s attention was not the surveillance footage.

Regardless of whether the surveillance had captured Enzo’s violence, he wouldn’t let that man off easily!

But this pill… Julian’s mind lit up with a spark of recognition.

He looked at Winnie and asked, “Who gave you this?”

How could it be identical to the pill Matt Hughes had tried to give Diana before?

Sean and Betty sensed that something was amiss before returning to the hospital room.

Betty tugged on Diana’s hand, and pointed down the corridor. “Mommy, why are there so many people standing there?

She was worried the children might run around, so she added, “For the next little while, don’t go anywhere. Just stay in the

hospital room with Mommy, okay?”
