Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93

Diana couldn’t believe this was what her own mother planned. She even felt like she was beginning to let go of things. “I finally understand why you chose to abandon your biological daughter and keep Kayla in the family. You’re all birds of a feather!”

If this was how things were, she would rather not have a mother like Kate.

“You’re audacious!” Kate’s body trembled with anger. “Do you know why you’ve lost that uncouth air, and why so many people praise you for being classy and beautiful? Because of money! I’m helping you find a back–up plan! Do you understand?”

Diana looked at her coldly as disappointment filled her eyes. “Why can’t you say something affirmative, like that I am indeed beautiful and outstanding, which is why others praise me and look at me in amazement? Even if you claim to be searching for a back–up plan for me, why must it be a path so filthy? Did Kayla teach you that? Because she walked down the filthy path of breaking someone else’s marriage and benefited from it, you think I should do something just as dirty?”

Hearing Diana insult Kayla wiped the smile off Kate’s face immediately. She raised her hand, fully intending to slap Diana. “Shut your mouth! You have no right to say that about your sister!”

It was a reaction Diana fully expected, but not the result she wanted.

As such, she moved faster than Kate and stopped the latter’s hand from coming down on her.

At the same time, a large hand covered hers, grabbing Kate’s wrist together with her.

A pleasant smell of disinfectant solution drifted from the newcomer’s body.

“I’m sorry you had to see something so embarrassing,” Diana immediately guessed who it was who came. She pulled her hand back and smiled apologetically at Oliver.

Oliver, in his typical gentle fashion, did not deliberately expose her. He simply shook his head and said, “I’m the one who should be sorry. I wanted to accompany you here to avoid having anything bad happen. Yet, I went to the washroom right after getting out of the car and almost let something happen to you again.”

This man put all the blame on himself.

completely ungrateful!” Kate wished she could dunk Diana’s head into a pail of cold water to wake her up so she could see who was truly family to her!

“Tell him to let me go right away! It’s my birthday party! Are you trying to embarrass me in front of my guests?!”

She spoke at a volume audible only to the three of them.

She looked clearly upset, completely different from the pride she felt when she was showing off her purple gemstone brooch just moments ago.

Upon seeing Oliver grabbing Kate’s wrist, someone wanted to make a joke out of the entire situation. He came over and asked, “Kate, this is…?”

Diana was truly scared that Kate might just introduce Oliver as her lover.

To her surprise, Oliver released Kate’s wrist and said slowly, “I am a bodyguard hired by Mr. Fulcher to protect his wife.”
