Chapter 1175
Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1175
Strange.
Lina never felt this kind of fear, even when standing before her brother.
And yet, she felt her heart almost stop when Julian nced at her.
Her wrist hurt so badly.
She mustered up the courage to say, “My wrist hurts…”
Julian nced at Noel.
Noel immediately walked over, and popped Lina’s wrist back in ce.
“I didn’t know Noel had such skills,” Diana said admiringly. She teased Noel, “If Cecilia knew, she’d love
you even more.”
The corner of Noel’s lips lifted, but because Julian was around, he didn’t dare tough out loud. His
ears gradually turned
red, though.
Diana thought Noel would remain silent, but he suddenly said, “Ms. Jarvis already loves me very
much.”
He was clearly proud of himself when he said it.
Diana couldn’t hold back herughter. “Julian, I can’t take it. Why do I find Noel so adorable now?”
Julian’s face remained cold and hard, but something shone in the bottom of his eyes. “Because he met
the right person.”
Just as Julian did.
Diana had long gotten used to his expressions.
Julian seldom smiled in front of others. He would only show such tenderness with people he was
familiar with. He was
used to being guarded.
If there were outsiders, he wouldn’t let his emotions show so easily and allow them to guess his
emotions.
The old professor was rather taken aback by Julian. “Mr. Fulcher, why are you so stern today?”
The old professor’s name was Ian Lemmington.
His impression of Julian was formed on the new year’s eve, when Diana and the twins called Julian
over to help with the
wall decorations at his home.
That was his and his wife’s first time interacting with this young man.
Although they were neighbors, houses in this estate were far apart from each other, especially from
Julian’s CoIlina Vi,
which could be considered the king of all the vis here.
Ian and his wife knew that whoever lived in CoIlina Vi was very powerful and wealthy. It wasn’t
someone an ordinary
family like them coulde close to.
They never expected Julian and Diana toe knocking on their door. The two even gave them a
happy, unforgettable
new year’s eve.
Winnie could no longer hold herself back when she saw Diana, and burst into tears. “Our daughter… If
she hadn’t been
tricked by that bastard Enzo Jennings, she’d be just like you. She’d bring home an outstanding young
man like Julia, and
they’d lead a happy life together.”
Enzo Jennings…
The mention of his name made rm bells ring in Diana’s mind. Something felt wrong.
Why did everything popping up recently involve the Jennings family?
In consideration of the old professors, however, Diana exchanged discreet nces with Julian to
remind him to not say a
word about their daughter’s demise.
She held Mrs. Lemmington’s hands, and tried tofort the olddy. “Tell us more about it, ma’am.
How did your
daughter get involved with Enzo Jennings?”

“Yeah!” Lina said.
She stood right there, water still dripping from her clothes. Her wrist had been popped back. She was
cold and wet, but all
she dared to do was take her bodyguard’s jacket and wrap it around her shoulders. Without a word
from Julian, she didn’t
dare leave.
For one, Lina feared Julian greatly. She instinctively felt that this man was way scarier than she
imagined.
Another reason was that her brother had instructed her to deliver some oranges here.
She looked at the basket of fruits, and sighed helplessly.
She hadn’t given them the oranges yet. Not only that, but she even got sshed with water for her
trouble.
Lina clenched her fists, not daring to look at Julian. Instead, she turned to the old couple, and said
irritably, “Speak! How is
your daughter rted to my brother?”
