Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 407

Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 407

“Mommy,” Kayla said with a pout. “What’s so great about those flowers? I’ve got you a treasure that will make many people envious of you!”

As she said that, she turned around to pick up a jewelry box.

However, Kate wasn’t as happy as she thought she would be. Kayla was the daughter she had raised with her own hands. Even if there was no blood relationship between them, Kate still used all her strength and energy to bring Kayla up. The fact that Kayla had brought her gifts, was considerate of her, missed her, and often made her proud, should have elated Kayla.

Yet somehow, upon hearing Kayla’s words, Kate felt her heart stutter.

The flowers that Diana had given her…

Were quite nice.

However, Kate didn’t dare say this to Kayla’s face for fear of angering the latter.

“Mommy, look!”

Kayla quickly opened the jewelry box to reveal a golden lotus flower inside.

“It’s very thick. It’ll definitely look good on you!”

Kate had seen a lot of nice things. For a moment, she felt that there was something wrong with the gold flower, but the thought quickly disappeared.

It was a gift from her beloved daughter. What could possibly be wrong with it?

“You’ll look really good when you wear it out,” Kayla said cheerfully. “I’ll do my best to marry Julian so everyone will always congratulate you and envy you!”

After saying that, Kayla suddenly covered her mouth and said, “Mommy, you won’t be angry with me if I say that, will you?”

“Silly child.”

The gold necklace around Kate’s neck was heavy, and there was a jewel set in the middle of it. Kayla must’ve gone through a lot of trouble to find such a beautiful necklace. Kate couldn’t help the happiness gradually seeping in heart when she envisioned the praises she would receive when she wore it out.

“I won’t get angry. Diana was just unlucky that she couldn’t keep Julian.”

Just like her birth.

Even after the loss of their children, it seemed Julian still couldn’t bear to hurt Kayla, not even a little bit.

What a deep love.

Unfortunately, that deep love was not directed at Diana. Yet, she was the one who had to bear the consequences of it.

“What are you thinking? Are you regretting divorcing Julian?” Fanny asked, still wearing the dress that Diana had just designed. Another dress hanging in the most conspicuous space in the cloakroom was the starry sky dress Diana had given her before.

Fanny held a cigarette between her fingers and took deep pulls from it while speaking with Diana. At the same time, she exuded an aura of a mysterious beauty.

Even though Diana had seen Fanny multiple times, she would always be amazed by the latter’s ethereal magnificence.

“Of course not,” Diana said as she turned to look at Fanny. “Why did you ask such an outrageous question?”

Divorce was a path the two of them were bound to take, so Diana had no reason to regret it.

“From the moment we lost our babies, our marriage fell apart,” Diana explained again. “He doesn’t love me one bit, but I just kept lying to myself to hold it together until now.”
