Chapter 1285


    Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1285


    Julian’s posture visibly rxed.


    He leaned back in his chair, allowing his entire body to recline, emphasizing his aristocratic figure even


    more.


    Noel, surprised, gazed at Julian. His eyes shed with doubt.


    Even now, despite confirming his romantic rtionship with Cecilia, Noel couldn’t fathom why Cecilia


    would abandon her feelings for Julian and turn to him, her assistant.


    After all, she was such a beautiful girl.


    Even when she was sick, she was beautiful.


    During her illness, she would smile at him, and hide behind him as if he were the most important


    person in the world.


    Noel rarely got lost in thought while reporting his work. Julian nced at him a few times, then raised


    his hand to tap the table gently.


    “Continue.”


    Noel snapped back to reality, and quickly resumed where he left off.


    “As I’ve said, Jim Hughes developed the fever-reducing medicine. During the development year, he


    gave up the patent and profits. He also provided the prescription for free to all pharmaceutical


    companies, saving many lives.


    “People with such greatpassion deserve respect. That’s why he’s the most aplished person


    in this generation. A physician with a kind heart, not only saving lives but also imparting knowledge to


    the next generation. Such a person truly deserves recognition.”


    “Is there anything else?” Julian asked.


    Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    “No,” Noel replied. “That’s all the information Ms. Jarvis could get.”


    Sue wouldn’t have disclosed anything if Julian had asked her directly. Cecilia had done well to obtain


    this much.


    At least it proved Jim’s character.


    Julian’s guard against this man was nowpletely lowered.


    “Alright.”


    As long as Jim wasn’t a bad person, Julian was no longer concerned about how he interacted with


    Diana.


    In the Jarvis residence, Sue sat on the edge of the bed. Frederick stood to the side, listening to her


    speak.


    “Cecilia asked about Jim, and I believe it’s rted to the Fulchers,” Sue said to him, as she kept


    ncing towards the door.


    She was afraid Cecilia mighte looking for her and overhear things she shouldn’t.


    “I told her some irrelevant information, but it did have some bias towards Jim being a good person,”


    Sue continued.


    As she spoke, she clenched her sleeve. Just thinking about Jim made her heart tighten. It was a


    different kind of shock than the chilly sensation Julian brought.


    Recalling Jim, she felt like someone had a grip on her throat.


    “If we reveal everything and it affects Jim in some way, I’m afraid he might look into us in the future.


    That would cause us a lot of trouble.”


    “You did the right thing,” Frederick said, patting Sue gently on the shoulder.


    “In the face of danger, self-preservation should alwayse first. As for Jim’s intentions towards the


    Fulchers, that’s not something we can control. And as for Cecilia… Keep an eye on her, make sure she


    doesn’t have any further contact with Noel. She shouldn’t get involved with the Fulchers ever again!”


    Sue felt a shiver run down her spine as she listened to Frederick’s low,manding voice. They had


    never spoken so seriously to each other before.


    “The Fulchers… There might indeed be a catastrophe for them brewing,” Sue said, patting her own


    chest.


    Over the years, wherever Jim appeared, trouble followed.


    This time, it was clear he had set his sights on Diana, who had an inextricable connection with the


    Fulchers.
