Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1044

Chapter 1044

"No... This can't be possible..." Noel grew more confused as he listened.

"If you don't believe it, you can ask her," Julian said." Sometimes, it's best to communicate openly."

Noel had good reason to believe that Julian was testing him. So, he asked, "Why don't you do the same with Ms. Winnington?"

Julian was caught off guard by Noel's words.

"You have some nerve! Do you think you're impressive now that my fiancee likes you?!"

He and Diana were in different situations. Their love could not be explained in just a few words. He always felt that his love with Diana was more special than anyone else's.

Julian's anger was still intimidating, even after all the time Noel had spent with him.

Noel shrank back and said firmly, "Sir, don't lie to me!"

There was sadness and stubbornness in his eyes. "Ms. Jarvis can't possibly like me!"

As he spoke, he became increasingly frustrated. "You can't just push her off to someone else to break the engagement. It's highly irresponsible of you!"

Clenching his teeth, Noel pushed through his fear of Julian.

He bowed and said, But I really do like Ms. Jarvis. You saw through this a long time ago, I know."

He took a deep breath, avoiding Julian's gaze guiltily. "I'll consider this as you giving me permission to resign, and leave now. Sir, I wish you and Ms. Jarvis a lifetime of happiness."

Noel had dirty thoughts about Julian's future wife, so he no longer deserved to stay by Julian's side.

With that, he turned and left.

This turn of events ended up making Julian chuckle, despite his initial anger.

He was infuriated! This fool! Such a lovesick idiot! He couldn't even recognize it when a woman liked him.

"What's wrong?" Julian's expression turned icy.

On the other hand, Diana immediately regretted her decision. She shouldn't have made this call. Yet Layla had urged her to do it, explaining that the emerald was something the late Madam Fulcher had loved and had intended to gift to her.

Unfortunately, the old woman had passed away.

Layla had broken down while talking, mentioning how close the old woman had been to Diana. She also said that Madam Fulcher had given Diana shares of the Fulcher company, which were substantial enough to ensure Diana’s financial security for a lifetime.

Diana had forgotten this, but Layla reminded her, "Originally, the late Madam instructed me to keep this share transfer a secret and act as if I didn't know anything. She believed this was the safest option for you."

The shares were incredibly valuable. With how Diana and

Julian kept arguing, Layla felt compelled to remind Diana of the late Madam Fulcher's intentions.

If Diana was unhappy with Julian, she could use this share to secure a comfortable life for herself. The money was enough to sustain her for generations.

She wouldn't need to continue working so hard.
