Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1278
Was that man truly so clean?
Was he just an ordinary and promising pharmacy professor at a university, or had he reached a level where not even Julian could uncover any information about him?
Putting those thoughts aside… Based on their few interactions, Julian decided, “In any case, he’s not a bad person.”
Diana smiled, as if she had seen through his tough exterior. She simply wrapped her hand around his neck, and the two of them walked towards the room. She maintained her warm smile, and let up on teasing him.
“You clearly already think Jim is a good person, but won’t admit it due to your appreciation for him. Julian, why are you so cute and like to get jealous?”
Even though she was in her mid-twenties, she seemed to become more youthful as she aged. The way she spoke was almost as cute as Betty. In an instant, Julian’s heart softened.
A tough man with a tender heart.
That was who Julian was at this moment. Facing his wife’s gaze, he nodded, effectively agreeing with Diana’s assessment of Jim. However, he didn’t say it out loud, and instead decided to tease her.
“I don’t like to just get jealous. I like something else, too.” “Mango? Durian? Or is it my specialty soup?” Diana asked. The little scatterbrain had developed a stronger craving for food since her pregnancy. Mango and durian had clearly become her favorites.
Now, she was attributing this craving to him.
Julian smiled. With a simple turn of his head, he signaled Layla to prepare the two fruits as dessert after dinner.
Then, he continued to look at Diana. “It’s not the soup.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Not my soup…”
What could it be?
Diana was momentarily at a loss.
“You really don’t know me at all.”
Way to hit it where it hurt, huh? Seeing how Diana was unable to say anything, Julian wore a wounded expression.
“You can’t even figure out what I like?”
“Royal blue cuffs? The black shirt you’re wearing?” Diana asked. She began to think more broadly.
Julian’s hand gradually tightened around her waist.
“You.”
His breath grew warmer. When it was directed at her ear, it made her earlobes tingle.
Diana instantly understood what was happening. Julian had been abstaining for a long time, and was starting to miss the action.
However…
She glanced around the room, and felt timid. Clearing her throat, she said shyly, “I haven’t reached the third month of my pregnancy. There’s still two more weeks to go. Once I reach three months, my pregnancy will be stable. So…”
After all, it was daytime, and there were servants bustling around in the villa.
Diana felt a bit embarrassed to continue.
Looking up, she saw Julian encouraging her with his gaze. She swallowed, then leaned on him. Reaching up to him on her tiptoes, she smiled and whispered in his ears, “In two weeks, you can do whatever you want.”
But Julian shook his head repeatedly, and refused. “No.”
Diana paused, feeling a bit embarrassed. She had already said it like this, but she still faced rejection.
What was the difference between this, and taking off her clothes yet the other party wouldn’t even look at her?
She felt like she had humiliated herself.
Instantly, she was unhappy. She flicked her hand, and turned away from him.
She decided not to snuggle up to him any longer and headed to the dining room alone, huffing in frustration.
