Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30

Julian looked Diana up and down. A hint of displeasure colored his eyes. “Did you change your clothes?”

“Yes, I’ve had dinner too.” Diana would not treat herself and the baby poorly.

The current Diana was as stubborn as the Diana who went to Winnington Mansion to reconnect with her family three years ago. Unlike that time, she had learnt to admit defeat with grace.

This was because she had a baby that she wanted to protect.

On the contrary, Julian was still a little overwhelmed by the change in her. Facing a Diana he was unused to,

he was at a loss.

She was different from before, he couldn’t exactly pinpoint what had changed.

This uncertainty made him feel unusually restless.

When Diana saw that he was silent for a long time, she asked, “Where’s the divorce agreement?”

Since they could no longer find any excitement and beauty in their marriage, as it had been in the beginning, she wouldn’t continue seeking such things anymore.

Otherwise, she and Julian would certainly be no better than derailed wheels that slide out all the way and become even more unrecognizable.

As of right now, there were already signs of it.

She became even more determined when she recalled his indifference today. “After we sign the papers, we’ll have a copy of the divorce agreement. Then, you can go to that woman.”

All Diana needed was the baby in her womb.

This was her last attachment to him. She was reluctant to lose this little life.

“Didn’t you hear me asking you to walk back?” Julian didn’t move, and he didn’t intend to move at all. He simply snorted coldly and said, “You haven’t even made amends for your vicious words this morning, yet you still dare to ask me for the divorce agreement so you can go and enjoy your time with Oliver?”

Diana’s body shook. Only then did she finally realize that the reason Julian asked her to walk back wasn’t because he misunderstood her and Oliver, but because he was punishing her for that woman’s sake.

All this because Diana made that woman wait all morning and didn’t show up for the appointment. Julian

Oliver was her benefactor who had helped her out when she was in the subway, when she was at her most vulnerable. As such, Diana really didn’t want to hear Julian slander Oliver over and over again.

However, she couldn’t raise that much money within such a short period of time…

But the current situation did not allow her to admit defeat so she could only respond, “Fine, I’ll pay you

back.”

“Mm.” Julian appeared satisfied. “Our marriage will automatically be dissolved after you repay the money.” Having said that, he glanced at her and asked, “Why don’t you hurry and ask Oliver to help you solve this problem?”

“Or perhaps he’s not willing to spend one hundred million dollars for you?”

Diana had never seen this ruthless side of him before.

She didn’t want all the good memories between them to be wiped out, so she held back and stopped herself from saying any more unpleasant words. She simply looked at him with a gaze full of disappointment, saying, “Okay, I’ll pay you back within a month.”

Julian did not believe her at all, for he knew her financial situation well.
