Julian's Stand in Wife

Chapter 1012

Diana's face turned red all of a sudden. She hadn't expected Julian to voluntarily admit that he had been cheated on.

Very quickly, she realized she didn't need to feel sorry for him.

"So, you're using me as a backup plan now? You knew Cecilia fell for someone else, so you turned to me?"

She was back to blaming him. Julian was speechless at her line of thinking.

Never attempt to reason with a woman.

Still, he couldn't help but try.

"That's not what I meant."

There seemed to be plenty of grief in Julian's eyes. Before Diana could react, he suddenly buried his face in her embrace.

"From the start, I only thought of you. Agreeing to Sue's engagement request and bringing Cecilia back was just a situation I couldn't avoid."

Otherwise, he could never get Shiloh to treat Cecilia.
