Julian's Stand in Wife

“I’ve encountered some issues on my end, and can’t go to Jacroaof to accompany her for now,” Julian didn’t disclose details to Jim. “She’s over there with Betty, and I’m counting on you to take good care of them.”

Jim nodded. “Rest assured.”

Jim would take better care of her than Julian would.

“I bought strawberries, cherries, durian, and other fruits for her. They have already been delivered to the hotel she’s staying at,” Jim said, intentionally showing Julian how to take care of a pregnant woman. “I also prepared some recipes that are good for pregnant women. Starting tomorrow, I’ll replace the hotel chef with someone I know to make special dishes for Diana.”

Julian was pleased with Jim’s thoughtful consideration.

But in his joy was slight unease.

Julian couldn’t figure out Jim’s intentions, couldn’t understand whether he was good or bad, and what kind of feelings he had towards Diana.

That, and the fact that Julian was unable to leave Richburgh to go to Jacroaof might be related to Jim.

Julian didn’t ask, fearing that it might be a misunderstanding.

However, Jim took the initiative to speak. “Julian, Diana’s pregnant, but she came to Jacroaof alone. However it happened, you shouldn’t have let her come alone.”
