Julian’s Stand-In Wife

That was true.

Julian gradually realized what was amiss. “She didn’t even tell me about it before leaving, or discuss it with me.”

He had been eager to have a good conversation with Diana, but he overlooked the simple logic behind her travel decision.

“No, I need to contact Layla first.”

He felt an urgent sense of being caught off guard that left him vulnerable.

After Diana boarded the plane, Layla had been worried all day. What if something happened to Diana and Betty?

Julian hadn’t followed them. What if something really did happen?

Layla quickly updated Julian on Diana and Jim’s interaction, and how Jim had booked the tickets for them.

Julian immediately caught on. “Jim Hughes invited Diana to Jacroaof?”

“Yes. There was originally a ticket for you too, but Madam couldn’t reach you and was afraid of delaying the flight, so she left with Betty first.”

It was just a plane ticket. Couldn’t the Fulchers afford that?
