Chapter 1259
Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1259
Keh had thought he would meet his end that day, so he finally said the words he had kept hidden in
his heart for a lifetime.
“Do you think I’m a kind person?” Keh asked his son.
“No,” Oliver answered sincerely.
In Oliver’s eyes, Keh was a shrewd businessman, and that could be seen from how he treated
Simon. The secret adoption of Simon years ago was also motivated by the benefits the Fulchers offered.
“Why do you think I would adopt Fanny out of the goodness of my heart?”
Oliver was instantly struck by this question. It was as though a hammer had hit him on the head, and his
temples were pounding.
He instinctively asked, “Why?”
“Because her parents were killed in a car ident caused by my drunken driving.”
Back in the early days, the city’s surveince system was not yet as advanced.
There were many areascking camera coverage.
At the time, if an ident urred and the parties involved were quick to respond and had enough
money, they could cover up any wrongdoing.
Fanny’s parents were one of the poor people who had been run over by Keh’s car, an incident which
had been covered up for over twenty years.
As for their daughter…
“For all these years, I have never mistreated her.”
Oliver didn’t understand how Keh even managed to smile as he narrated his story.
“I even gave my most outstanding son to her. I think I’m actually a kind person.”
A kind person? i Would a kind person pay off their sins after killing someone’s parents in a car ident?
Would a kind person bring the daughter of those they had killed into their home, and make her call him
father as she sought vengeance?!
Oh, what a truly kind person he was!
Oliverughed sarcastically, unable to bear looking at his father’s demeanor any longer. He forcefully
pushed the door open, and stormed out of the room. His mind was in turmoil.
From that day on, he never mentioned divorce again and prohibited Fanny from bringing it up. Oliver
thought that this matter would quietly pass, but he never imagined that Fanny would overhear his
conversation with his father at the office door.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
From then on, she repeatedly asked him what sins Keh hadmitted against her.
This put Oliver in a difficult spot. If he opened up about it, everything between him and Fanny would
crumble.
And Fanny…
She might break down as a result. Who could ept falling in love with the son of their enemy? Who
could ept recognizing the enemy as their father for so many years?!
“This script is good,” Fannymented after reading the script and handing it to her agent. ’This kind of
rtionship has a lot of dramatic potential.”
She summed it up for her agent.
“A wife unknowingly marries her the son of her father’s killer’s, and recognizes the enemy as a father. I
mean, she marries the son! Why won’t it be popr?
Especially when the wife has been secretly in love with her husband for a long time, and they had a
contractual marriage because her husband hasn’t forgotten his first love.”
This secret love story reminded her of her own experiences. Fortunately, she didn’t have any enmity with
the Channings.
Fanny quickly decided, “This drama will be a key project for our studio. We’ll push it forward in the
coming months, and as for the cast… We’ll assign it to one of our current rising starlets.”
She had a feeling this drama would be a hit!
When the time came, she would invite Oliver to visit the set. With a story this intriguing, he might also be
interested.
While Fanny was energetically advancing the project on her side, Oliver was discussing
countermeasures with Julian. Both of them had worried looks on their faces.
“Everything you said today, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear,” Julian told Oliver. “Let’s just forget about it all.”
Only by keeping the secret could Oliver continue his rtionship with Fanny.
Though it was far from an ideal solution, it was a necessary one.
Just as Oliver was about to agree, a young voice spoke up,” Daddy, Mr.
Channing, are you trying to deceive someone?”
