Julian's Stand in Wife

The joy she felt when she first learnt she was pregnant and her desire to share the good news with Julian had long disappeared. Now, she only wanted to protect the child’s right to stay by her side. Thus, she must protect and keep the baby’s existence a secret. “I wasn’t the one with a stomach ache. It’s Nina. Vans lied to you.”

Julian’s hand paused, but he did not lose his temper.

On the contrary, he was a little relieved, as if he was glad that Diana wasn’t ill.

How could he still be so concerned about her when he already had another woman by his side?

Diana rubbed her eyes and stopped looking at him. She always felt that she was prone to overthinking when looking at his charming face.

She shouldn’t be sentimental, or she might not want to leave again.

She recalled the scenes she saw at Winnington Mansion, the Forget Me Not flower shop, and SK Mall today. She suddenly raised her head and said, “That banquet.”

Julian did not understand what she meant. “Hmm?”

“The banquet at the old mansion that Mr. Carter wouldn’t let me enter. You held that banquet for her, right?”

“It’s all in the past, so why are you still bringing it up?” Julian didn’t answer directly, but Diana already knew the answer.

To think she actually felt moved because of the way he reprimanded Mr. Carter for her sake! In truth, he was the culprit and Mr. Carter was simply covering up for him.

The two of them were silent all the way home.

When they arrived at the villa, Diana was surprisingly kind to Mr. Carter. She even served him a bowl of congee from the kitchen that she had stewed before going out.

There were yams, red dates, and lotus seeds in it. Although these were all common ingredients, the main point was that this was Diana’s specialty congee.

She could always cook this congee in a flavor that was different from others.

Her congee, which was good for nourishing the stomach, was also a big part as to why Julian never suffered any stomach pains in the past three years.

“Please enjoy it, Mr. Carter.” Diana didn’t give him too much. She served him the right amount of congee that was comfortable to drink. She also glanced at Noel, who was standing not far away, and said, “I’ll get you a bowl too.”
