Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1264

Diana hurriedly wiped her tears away, then gazed at her daughter. She calmed down, so that Betty wouldn’t become more upset.

“I’m okay. Come here.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

She carried Betty up on the stool before the sink.

“Mommy will help you squeeze out some toothpaste and brush your teeth.”

Betty behaved and did what Diana told her to, but she was clearly in low spirits.

Memories of Sean kept running through her mind. She remembered how she would stand at the sink and brush her teeth with him by her side.

Sean had been with her ever since she was a zygote. Now, she suddenly found herself apart from her brother after being with him for four years.

“Sean’s heartless,” she said out of the blue, not in a rush to brush her teeth.

Her brows were knitted tightly, and she was pouting so hard that her lips could pull a horse cart.

Seeing her daughter looking like that, Diana’s low spirits were lifted. She pinched Betty’s cheeks.

“Sean just left and here you are, badmouthing him and saying he’s heartless.

You brat! You’re heartless, too.” As if realizing what she had just said, Betty stuck her tongue out and smiled.

“You’re right, Mommy. I’m as heartless as Sean. I’m still the same as Sean, hehe. I can’t call Sean heartless. I have to say he’s good-looking, which means I’m good-looking too!”

She looked at her reflection in the mirror and even kissed it, saying vainly, “Beautiful! Kissy-kiss!”

Diana chuckled at her daughter’s antics. While Betty brushed her teeth, Diana took the chance to braid her hair.

Betty’s hair was in great condition. It was thick and lustrous, and ended at her waist.

Betty liked tying her hair up in different styles. Today, Diana did her hair into two braids that hung down her shoulders. Coupled with her long lashes and huge eyes, she looked like a beautiful doll. She looked like an online child model, as lovable as could be.

“Mommy, I’m done brushing my teeth,” Betty said after spitting out all the toothpaste and washing her face. She was waiting for Diana to rub oil on her face.

Betty used to do that herself. Diana was only in charge of tying her hair.

Now that Sean was no longer around, she had become more clingy to the point that she wanted her mother to rub oil on her face.

Betty couldn’t bear having Sean leave her.

At the same time, she finally had the chance to monopolize Mommy and escape the one who always watched her. Now that Sean had left the house, she could finally let herself go and be free!

Diana saw through Betty’s thoughts.

She began rubbing oil on Betty’s face as thoughts about Sean flooded her mind.

She wondered if he slept well last night. Was he already up now? Had he grown used to the food and the accommodation there?

“Did you see mattresses on the bed frames when you visited Sean’s dormitory?”

Diana asked.

“Mattresses?” Betty shook her head. “No.”

Right after that, she corrected herself. “Yes.”

Diana asked exasperatedly, “Is that a no or a yes?”

Betty scratched her head sheepishly, and even started feeling bad for making Diana rub oil on her face. “Mommy… I forgot.”

The moment she said that, she clapped her hands and yelled, “But! But I remember! I remember!”

Even her cheeks flushed red with excitement.

Diana probed her, “What do you remember? Take your time and tell me all about it.”

She thought Betty would say something that had to do with Sean, but she didn’t expect to hear the words that soon came out of her daughter’s mouth.

“Daddy and Mr. Channing lied!”

That was the last thing that happened yesterday, and it had left the deepest impression on Betty.

She spilled the beans, and described the situation back then to Diana. She even imitated Julian, and said, “Carry the secret to your grave!”

Betty rubbed her arms.

“Sigh! It sounds strange trying to carry something like that!”
