Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1217

Chapter 1217

The sudden change in attitude...

Did Enzo sense the police coming, and decided to back down in hopes of being spared by the law?

That couldn't be.

Julian sought the help of the most reliable people he knew before coming here alone. They couldn't possibly expose his plan before reaching here to gather hard evidence.

What exactly went wrong?

If Enzo released Julian earlier than expected, his plan would be botched.

Could he still successfully stop Enzo from listing his company?

Julian was still pondering how he had to adjust his plan, when he saw Diana and Noel standing at the door.

He thought he was hallucinating. He rubbed his eyes, and looked again. It was really Diana in the flesh!

Her eyes were filled with tears. There was also anger in them.

Even without asking, Julian knew he must have worried Diana.

The fact that she had to worry about him even when she was pregnant filled Julian with guilt. He immediately stood

up to run toward her, but Diana stopped him.

"Don't move.”

She made Julian continue lying on the floor, but she was in no rush to go to him. Instead, she turned around and said something to someone. Very soon, a man appeared.

At that time, Noel had already taken Sean away to safety.

The tall, smartly-dressed man approached Julian.

Diana was worried Jim might get angry. She quickly apologized to Jim, seeking his understanding.

Then, she lowered her volume and said to Julian, "Julian, Mr. Shiloh isn't coming. He's still in Jacroaof, and I heard that he has fallen sick. Given your condition right now, even gastric lavage wouldn’t help you."

Diana explained to Julian about the drug he just took, and forcefully pulled his hand toward Jim. Caressing her tummy, she said through tears, "Julian, if you don't let Professor Hughes treat you and damage your health, can you bear to see me lose my husband? Can you allow the baby in my stomach be fatherless?"

What was she thinking? She made it seem as though he would die the next moment.

Still, it was true he felt more breathless than he usually did. It wasn't just pain-even his face had turned ashen.

Diana was frightened. "Professor Hughes..."

Jim remained calm. He pulled out a pink pill from a small container he brought around with him.

As he took it out, his expression became exceptionally tender. It was as if he was holding onto a precious child of his.

Seizing the moment Julian was busy observing him, Jim stuffed the pill into Julian's mouth.
