Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 288

Chapter 288

This soon became known to Kayla, and the resentment she harbored for Diana deepened.

Last night, Diana had given such an insincere apology and quietly left, looking as upset as Kayla felt.

She obviously thought herself to be Kayla’s better!

In addition, Julian hadn’t returned to stay with Kayla as he had promised. Kayla knew it must have been because of Diana.

As such, Kayla made sure Diana would feel her rage today in the company. She couldn’t help but think that… that Diana and Julian must have slept together again.

How shameless of Diana!

She was already pregnant, yet she was still seducing men!

Kayla had gone through all the trouble of acting out such a tedious play, but she still failed to keep Julian by her side. Even his concern for her had been short–lived.

She had racked her brains to come up with so much… Was it true? Was she not destined to win Diana? Would she always only be second best?

No! That was impossible.

There must have been something Kayla had yet to do.

Suddenly, an idea popped into her mind. If it was difficult to break through on Julian’s side, she could start with Diana! Kayla’s eyes flashed with excitement as the thought entered her mind.

Diana had always wanted the title of being the eldest daughter of the Winnington family, and for them to openly acknowledge her identity as so.

Kayla’s eyes sparkled as she called James. With a smug smile on her face, she greeted him affectionately, ” Daddy!”

James was equally happy to hear from his daughter. “My dear, what’s wrong? Come, tell me.”

“That b*tch!” James cursed under his breath, just as Kayla expected him to. “What the hell does she want?!”

“Thieves would never admit themselves as one. Similarly, Diana will never say out loud what she really wants,” Kayla said, deliberately talking like a philosopher. “But I understand her very well. She wants nothing but your and Mommy’s love. She wants to be known as the Winnington family’s eldest daughter so she’d have our family’s blessing behind her after the divorce.”

James was silent for a moment before he said disdainfully, “If she wants our family’s blessing, it depends if she’s capable enough to get it.”

“Now’s not the time to be petty about this,” Kayla quickly cut him off. “The most important thing right now is to get them divorced as soon as possible. We can’t allow Diana to drag this on. I can only serve our family’s welfare better once I become Mrs. Fulcher.”

Kayla had hit right where it hurt, and James said, “You’re right. She and Julian have been married for so long, but the Fulchers have never given us any help or business deals on her behalf. Every time we talk about business, they say they’re doing it for you.’

There was a hint of relief in his tone. “You’re my darling daughter, Kayla.”

In his beloved daughter’s time of need, of course he would do what she wanted!

And so, a happy family reunion would soon be staged in the Winnington family.
