Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 1323

“What misunderstanding could there be?”

Cecilia didn’t believe in that.

“No one would reject money. The 1.5 million my mom offered him allowed him to open such a huge Japanese restaurant in all its glory.

“Even if it wasn’t used to pay for this restaurant, he could buy himself a small house in a decent district.

“Whatever it is, he can certainly put this 1.5 million to good use.

“Those from poor families always need a lot of money to be with people like us.”

She ate up the caviar in one bite and wiped her mouth, stopping Diana from saying anything as she went on, “If anyone thinks there’s ever too much money, then there would be no need for Fulcher Inc. to continue running.

“Even if Fulcher Inc. closed its doors, you and Julian can retire with money that can’t be spent even over ten lifetimes.

“But will Julian want that?

“No one will give up a fortune right before them.”

Not to mention Noel, who came from a humble background and became who he was now through much hard work.

To Cecilia, Noel taking 1.5 million from her mother was the mark of a man who came from the countryside and attained success in a big city!

Diana didn’t agree with what Cecilia said.

She swallowed her food, then turned to look at Cecilia and said calmly, “Julian would be willing to do that. He isn’t actually the one calling the shots.”

Diana told the two ladies about Julian transferring all his shares to her. She successfully earned wide-eyed stares from them.

“Are you serious?!”

The shares of Fulcher Inc. were equivalent to the value of an entire gold mountain! And yet, Julian gave it all to Diana without leaving any behind for himself.

She paused for a moment, realizing that she might have said something inappropriate, and added, “But I’m not thinking about Julian. I really don’t have any feelings for him right now. I just think he’s an excellent husband.”

“I know.” Diana tried to reassure Cecilia. “Julian’s an old man. He’s not worthy of you. You’ll certainly find someone younger and better. But…are you really not going to consider Noel?”

Cecilia’s face turned cold when she heard Diana trying to speak up for Noel again. “Don’t mention his name again!”

She never wanted to hear that man’s name ever again!

They had been enjoying the meal and the company. Yet, the moment Noel’s name was brought up, the mood turned strange again.

The more they spoke, the more they disagreed.

Cecilia started becoming angry.

She was certain Diana wasn’t a genuine friend. Rather, this woman’s ulterior motive was to put in a good word for Noel!
