Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1050

Chapter 1050

Julian returned Layla’s call when he got the message.

"Miss, you're back."

He heard Layla talking to someone as soon as the call connected.

Julian had no doubt that the person on the other end was Diana. He wondered where Diana had gone.

He was curious and wanted to ask, but then he remembered the abruptly ended video call. His interest waned after he recalled the incident.

Layla was engrossed in conversation with Diana, unaware she was holding the landline phone receiver.

"How's it going? Did the house purchase go smoothly?" Layla asked. She was genuinely concerned about the matter.

"It was fine," Diana replied calmly, completely different from her assertive tone when she spoke to Julian.

Julian listened to her conversation, and strangely felt a sense of satisfaction. It was good to hear her speak so calmly.

"Before making my final decision, I need to meet with one of my investors. He supported me before I lost my memory, and I need to calculate whether I can afford the debt," Diana added.

At this point, Julian was slightly puzzled. He realized belatedly that, hidden beneath Diana's calm tone, she was talking about buying a house.

She wanted to buy a house?!

Why did she want to buy a house? Wasn't living in Collina Villa good enough? He had moved out, and he had even taken Cecilia with him.

What was she dissatisfied with?

After Diana found out from Noel that Julian had used Albert's identity to test her, she had already been angry once.

Julian didn't want to reveal the identity of Mr. Whatever and strain their relationship even more than it already was.

Now, it was crucial that Diana didn't find out about his true identity as Mr. Whatever.

"Layla!" he quickly interrupted her, histone harsh. "Have you forgotten the rules of the Fulcher family?"

When had Layla started to sneak a peek at his texts? She even dared to enter his room without his permission!

It was then that Layla realized that she had answered Julian's phone call. In her distraction, she had almost committed a major workplace taboo by inadvertently revealing the texts on her master's phone to Diana.

After all, Diana and Julian were no longer a married couple.
