Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 712

But when he returned to the villa, he realized that Diana had left.

Mrs. Lay said anxiously, “Mrs. Fulcher asked me to get the cake, but when I came back, I realized that even the luggage was gone and there was a letter left on the table.”

She handed it to Julian. “Look.”

The pen ink on the letter hadn’t dried yet.

It seemed the letter was only recently written.

Julian’s smile froze on his face. He dropped the bouquet, and flower petals scattered across the floor.

He took the letter from Mrs. Lay, but didn’t open it. “Where did she go?”

“I have no idea, sir.” Mrs. Lay placed the cake on the table. “The surveillance cameras at home were all switched off, and I can’t tell the direction she left the house.”

Was she so bent on leaving him?

Julian collapsed on the chair as he recalled everything that happened this morning.

Back then…

Did he hurt her too deeply?

She said she wanted to explain things to him, but what did he reply to her?

No need.

But… He was in a hurry to head out to meet Simon.

It wasn’t that he was unwilling to hear her out!

And that phone card.

He admitted that he had been too brusque.

Diana wasn’t his pet canary, neither was she an object that belonged to him.

She had her own thoughts and insights, as well as her own career that she worked hard to carve out. She was a living, breathing, whole person. He should have sought her opinions before coming to a decision.

What’s more, on the first day of the new year, he had rejected her proposal to get remarried.

After recalling all that had happened, he realized he had done so much to break her heart over the past few days.

He was always thinking about giving her the best relationship and giving her as much love as he could; as big as the whole world.

Yet in the end, he always ended up being the one hurting her the most.

Julian began assessing himself in earnest.

The moment he shut the door, he collapsed on the floor dejectedly.

Then, he slowly opened the letter.

“Julian, hope all is well.

This is my first time writing you a letter. I didn’t expect it to be under such circumstances.”

Diana’s handwriting was neat and elegant, reflective of her character. It exuded a sense of grace that somehow managed to calm one down.

Her face emerged in Julian’s mind as he went on reading.

A smile broke across his face, and he chuckled.

The letter had her scent on it, which he took in while reading the contents.

“We have gone through many ups and downs over the past three years.

I’m not afraid of you laughing at me for saying this, but sometimes, when I get so heartbroken, the indignation I feel would disappear the instant I see you.

What a loser I am, right?

But what choice do I have? I really love you.”
