Julian’s Stand-In Wife

“He’s just a poor loser who found success in this city, and is trying to climb the social ladder by sticking to my family. I’ll never give him the chance!” Cecilia yelled.

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.”
