Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Rather than a poor man who found success in the city, he could be considered a golden bachelor.

Cecilia’s face darkened with displeasure.

“If you really don’t think that there’s any misunderstanding between you and Noel, and you really don’t want to be with him anymore, I won’t talk about it anymore in the future. Please don’t feel uncomfortable.”
