Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1275

It took hard work to maintain a marriage.

Diana subconsciously rubbed her stomach as her fingers clasped tightly over it.

Julian didn’t notice her subtle movement, but Jim did.

He charged toward Diana like an arrow shot from a bowstring, his face pale with anxiety as he stared at Diana and asked in panic, “Does your stomach hurt?”

He immediately reached out to feel her pulse.

Her wrist was tender and fair.

Julian’s eyes turned red as he grabbed Jim’s hand. “What are you doing?”

Julian had to admit that his feelings toward Jim were complicated. He did feel that Jim wasn’t interested in Diana in that way, not in the romantic sense.

The look Jim gave Diana and the way he spoke to her was straightforward and natural. He never attempted to hide anything.

But just now, for some reason, Jim displayed extraordinary care and concern toward her .

“She rubbed her stomach too hard just now,” Jim explained kindly. “I was just worried that she felt discomfort in her stomach.”

Julian looked at Diana.

Diana nodded at Julian, and turned to shake her head at Jim. “Professor Hughes, thank you for your kind intentions. I don’t feel any discomfort. I’m just slightly taken aback by all these property deeds.”

Even Fulcher Manor alone was worth at least 15 million dollars, not to mention Collina Villa. They were property that many wealthy families in Richburgh coveted.

Yet, Julian gave them all to her.

Even the name of the owner of these properties had changed to her name.

Julian’s speed…

Diana was shocked beyond words.

“Didn’t I tell you about it just now?” Julian saw the dazed look on Diana’s face, and he teased her for being slow on the uptake. “I’ve already done the transfer procedures.”

He had wanted to give her these property deeds a long time ago. It was just that he couldn’t find a good time to do so.

Today, having heard from Layla that another man wanted to give Diana a house, he decided to give up looking for a good time and simply retrieve all these property deeds.

It was all too much, and too valuable. She couldn’t bear it all.

“It’s like this even with other husbands and wives,” Julian said, puzzled. “Husbands hand their pay over to their families, and wives are responsible for being beautiful and poised. Why don’t you want that for us?”

Diana broke out in a cold sweat.

How could his pay be compared to an ordinary worker’s salary?

She refused to sign the document, no matter what he said.

“Fine,” Julian sounded as if he was ready to come to a compromise.

Yet, just when Diana was about to sit on the couch, Julian immediately grabbed her hand, and pressed her thumb onto the ink pad and then onto the letter of transfer of shares.

A bright red thumbprint appeared just like on the document. Billions of dollars were transferred in a snap of a finger.

Yet Julian, the one who did the transfer, was over the moon. “It’s done.”

He looked at the bright red thumbprint, and said, “A thumbprint is legally enforceable as a signature. Mrs. Fulcher, I’m penniless right now. Are you willing to take care of me for the rest of my life?”
