Chapter 1225


    Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1225


    However, she couldn’t use her family’s informationwork to help him while her


    own love life was in turmoil.


    If anything went wrong, it wouldn’t just affect her, but also her entire family-the


    same family that adored her.


    “That’ll put you in a difficult situation, right?” Noel rubbed his hands, feeling


    awkward.


    It was really strange. He wasn’t cold earlier, but now, he felt like stomping his


    feet on the ground to keep warm.


    “If I made you ufortable, I’m sorry. You don’t have to worry about it,” Noel


    said, trying to ease the situation.


    He was grasping at straws.


    He pushed Cecilia inside the gate and said, “You should go inside. It’s cold out


    here.”


    He didn’t say he couldn’t bear to part with her, nor did he request a hug, even


    though he wanted one.


    Cecilia watched his retreating figure, increasingly convinced that this wasn’t


    what dating should feel like.


    It was almost less passionate than when they were in the early stages of


    courtship. Back then, she would have asional rpses, and Noel would


    monitor her meals and prepare gloves for her when it got cold. He would even


    put on a suit and make funny faces to cheer her up if she was feeling down.


    “I really thought I was the most important person to him,” Cecilia said. She


    couldn’t help but call Diana and tell thetter what had happened.


    Diana was half-asleep when she picked up the call. She listened to Cecilia’s


    words, absentmindedly responding now and then.

    When she reached out to touch Julian, she expected to find a warm body.


    However, the other side of the bed was empty.


    The covers were cold. Julian hadn’t been in bed the whole time.


    Diana instantly felt more awake. Holding the phone to her ear, her eyes darted


    around the room. She eventually spotted Julian on the balcony, standing alone


    in the night, looking somewhat deste.


    He was clearly troubled by something.


    Diana got out of bed to go to him.


    However, Cecilia could sense Diana’s distracted state.


    “Diana! Are you even listening to me?” Cecilia asked.


    “Of course I am,” Diana replied.


    Although they weren’t particrly close friends, their interactions were now quite


    peaceful. It was probably because Noel was someone they both knew. Since


    Cecilia and Noel started dating, she was particrly interested in discussing


    Noel’s affairs with Diana.


    She even asked Diana for advice, saying, “How did you manage to tie Julian


    down so tightly?”


    Cecilia hade to terms with Julian’s character, epted his and Diana’s


    rtionship, and knew that Diana wouldn’t steal Noel from her.


    She used to worry that Diana might be a sly fox, but that was pure nonsense. It


    was just that when one was in love, there would be a time when everything they


    did seemed wonderful in one’s eyes, regardless of what everyone else said.


    Even if one’s beloved was taking a dump.


    Cecilia realized that her metaphors have be cruder since she started


    dating. It was quite miraculous that she didn’t mind it.


    Perhaps it was because she had yed the role of the polite and sensible Jarvis


    family heiress for so long, asionally letting herself go and thinking about


    crude things felt rather liberating.


    Cecilia would sometimes wonder about what Noel looked like when he was


    using the bathroom.


    Ahem!


    Okay, that was getting too vulgar.


    Cecilia’s cheeks turned red in embarrassment.


    Diana was unaware of Cecilia’s amusing thoughts, but she didn’t dislike Cecilia.


    She even felt like a protective older sister at times.


    Cecilia was a beautiful and polite girl, who asionally sent nutritional


    supplements to Diana and bought Betty’s favorite dolls.


    It was hard to hate such a consideratedy.


    Moreover, Diana always felt slightly guilty towards Cecilia because of past


    events. So, Diana was very indulgent with her.


    That was why she answered Cecilia’s call, even in the middle of the night. This


    was a level of attention even Julian didn’t receive.


    Diana had a slight backache from sleeping, and a bit of an odd taste in her


    mouth.


    These days, she was eating better than before.


    She casually grabbed an avocado, and started munching on it. This fruit was


    high in nutrients and good for the babies
