Julian's Stand in Wife

Chapter 1139

She couldn't bear to see the scars on his hands, and her mood had noticeably soured. To distract her, Julian shifted the conversation to Noel.

"Have you figured out how to persuade Noel? Will he really accept Cecilia?"

Diana instantly perked up at the mention of this topic. "I've already persuaded him."

Julian was skeptical. "...You've already persuaded him?"

They had been together the whole time, and Diana hadn't had a chance to speak with Noel. How could she have persuaded him?

"Yes," Diana replied confidently. "He's already met Cecilia."

As she spoke, Diana took out her phone and showed Julian a picture. "Look, Cecilia sent this to me. They took this photo not long ago."

While Julian was engrossed in examining the photo, Diana said, "I have to admit, Noel’s quite crazy. After he finally came to terms with everything, he didn't even care about Sue anymore. He went straight to where Cecilia was staying, and shouted with a loudspeaker, 'Cecilia, I love you!'"

Diana vividly described the situation, as if she had been there herself.
