Julian's Stand in Wife

Chapter 1049

They took turns calling Noel's phone, but it remained unreachable. Julian now realized that Noel truly didn't believe his words and had actually disappeared without a trace.

Fortunately, they checked Noel's immigration records and confirmed he was still in the country. Noel was not only loyal to Julian in his work, but was also a respectful son. If he had the intention to go abroad, he would definitely come back to see Albert.

Julian wanted to bring Albert back to the Fulcher Manor and wait for Noel to return, but Cecilia refused.

"What if he doesn't come back?" Cecilia asked, tears streaming down her face. Ever since she learned of Noel's intention to go abroad, she didn't stop crying.

Julian was getting tired of her tears. "Well, what do you suggest we do now? We can't just keep wandering around aimlessly."

"Wait here," Cecilia suggested.

"No, we can't do that,” Albert said. He was the first to oppose the idea. My home is in the countryside. Even though it's late autumn, there are still many mosquitoes because I grow many fruits and vegetables. Sir, you're of noble status. How could I let you stay in a place like mine? That would be unacceptable."

Cecilia didn't argue with Albert. In fact, she was overly submissive to him.
