Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 631

They walked in slowly. Diana saw the morgue room straight ahead, and her eyes widened at the sight.

Was Kayla locked in a morgue?!

Diana suddenly shuddered and quickly looked at Julian, who nodded in confirmation at her thoughts.

As expected from someone like him.

Now, she found herself in awe of him.

Being locked in such a place would frighten anyone, let alone someone like Kayla, who had been pampered to high heavens since childhood.

Tricking and deceiving others was one thing, but experiencing such a terrifying scene firsthand was another.

Diana felt a chilling breeze blow past, and shivered. Looking inside, she saw rows of bodies covered in white cloth.

Even though she had grown up in the rough countryside and wasn’t a weak-hearted person, she still struggled to hold herself together in a place like this.

When she heard some strange sounds, she jolted like a shrimp jumping out of the water and shifted closer to Julian. Julian's lips curled into a smile at her reaction, and he took the initiative to hold her hand, which was within arm's reach.

"Come here," Julian beckoned.

As long as Diana stayed by his side, there wasn't any need to be afraid.

Diana did indeed feel more at ease. She followed him inside, and soon, they heard screams echoing.

"Ahhh! Stay away from me! Who the hell is it?!"

The screams continued as the two made their way further in.

"Ahhhh! Don't move! Don't! Sob, sob... Please! Please spare me... Sob..."

The one screaming was none other than Kayla. She was crouched in the corner, her hands covering her ears and face buried between her legs. She trembled all over, and her body was twitching uncontrollably.

She had assumed that the sounds Julian and Diana made while coming in were the corpses coming to life.

"Ahhh!"

As their footsteps approached her, Kayla's screams grew louder. Her hoarse and shrill voice pierced through the room, like glass shattering in the night sky.

"Enough!" Julian roared.

Luckily, he didn't ask anything about her nervousness. He simply accepted everything in silence.

"Noel,” he said, “step aside for a moment."

Then, he pulled Diana forward with him to show a united front. The moment they stood before Kayla, he raised a palm to slap her.

"Grandma passed away," Julian told her calmly, but his voice was filled with pain and disgust. "Are you happy now, Kayla?"

"That old hag is dead?"

Saying she wasn't happy or satisfied would be a huge lie.

"She deserved it!" she snarled.

Ever since the failed wedding and Diana informing her that James was no longer a reliable support, then being kept in the damn morgue by Julian's men, Kayla had long since reached her limits.

Dissatisfaction filled her blood, and now, she finally received good news!

"It's that old hag's fault we were separated! Everything was because of all her lies! She deserved it! She said I was too involved in the scandal of the fake and real heiress of the Winnington family, and that I’d never be Mrs. Fulcher! She lied to me! That's why I left the country! That's how this b*tch Diana took advantage of the situation in my absence!"
