Julian's Stand in Wife

Despite Marcus’s status in showbiz, he didn’t have the confidence to ask the richest man in the country, who was also a stunning young man, whether he could see his wife.

The best way was to get Nina involved. To his surprise, however, they had unwittingly become a couple in name.

Marcus chuckled at the turn of events.

“I’m not being professional,” he said, “I’m really excited to see my godson and goddaughter.”

With that, he instructed his assistant to retrieve the gift hampers from the boot of the car.

That was when Nina finally took a good look at the hampers—they were filled with toys, nutritional supplements, and even gemstones and calligraphy paintings, which looked as though they were treasures from an auction.

Nina wanted to tell him that he shouldn’t have gone to such an expense, when Marcus started greeting Diana and her children. They looked very pleased with Marcus, and were even more excited to see him than Nina.

That was especially so with Betty. Her bright eyes barely blinked as she stared at Marcus. “Godfather?”

She called out in her adorable voice.

Marcus replied to her in a bright and crisp voice, “You must be Betty.”
