Chapter 1279
Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1279
La was busy setting the table. The Fulcher family had many traditions; they had different tablecloths
for every meal, a rule established by thete Madam Fulcher. She believed that anyone who enjoyed
their meals was someone who loved life. As an elderlydy, she wanted to be one who loved life.
Now, she was gone, but her habits and spirit remained forever.
Diana watched La bustling around, and suddenly felt her eyes welling up with tears.
Julian had followed behind her. Upon seeing her standing still, he understood her emotions instantly. He
held her hand again.
“Let’s not argue anymore, okay? If Grandma finds out, she might want to take me away in her dreams
tonight.”
“…What nonsense are you spouting?”
Madam Fulcher wouldn’t want to take her beloved eldest grandson away so early.
“Are you not angry anymore?”
Seeing Diana talking to him again, a smug smile graced Julian’s lips. Before Diana could react, he swiftly
nted a kiss on her cheek.
Their affectionate rtionship was well known within the Fulcher family, but such intimacy was rarely
disyed so openly in front of others. Today, everyone around them was getting a taste of it. They also
witnessed the look in Julian’s eyes-one that showed that Diana was the only person in his world.
“Don’t worry,” Julian said. He embraced her, and they returned to their affectionate state, walking toward
the chairs at the dining table. “In two weeks, I’ll definitely satisfy you.”
He said it as if they were discussing their dinner ns. With so many people around, Diana couldn’t
refute him. All she could do was blush and pinch his hand lightly.
La saw this, and sighed in relief.
She thought she had once again misspoken and given the wrong impression, potentially causing discord
between the couple. She had felt guilty-to her surprise, Julian and Diana seemed to be getting along
better than ever.
It looked like the couple wasn’t affected at all.
“I won’t bber anymore,” she vowed, smacking her own mouth twice as a self inflicted punishment.
In the past, Julian would’ve certainly made La return to the Fulcher Manor on her own for a while, to
cool off and see if she’d still be so talkative next time.
However, this time, he didn’t. Since remarrying Diana, he had indeed be much moreposed,
especially when around her.
“It’s alright,” Julian said. “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to give away the shares
and the houses so quickly.”
Diana became a bit nervous as Julian mentioned this.
Julian had a more rxed attitude about the houses since the transfer had already beenpleted, but
Diana still had some reservations. The houses were incredibly expensive, and transferring them back
would incur significant expenses.
Diana had a thrifty lifestyle, and considered this expenditure unnecessary.
She exined, “I can ept keeping the houses, but the shares… They’re too important. I can’t imagine
participating in high-levelpany or shareholder meetings to vote on important decisions. I have no
knowledge about Fulcher Inc.’ s business, and I’m not capable of handling such important matters.”
Julian replied confidently, “What’s wrong with you participating? When the timees, you can sit on my
lap. Well see who dares to pull you down.”
Diana blinked. “…You really want me to sit on yourp during important meetings?”Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
