Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 971

Chapter 971

Julian...

Was the only who thought he was spoiling and doting on Diana. It had all been in his own head.

In actual truth, he never prioritized her when problems really arose, like he thought he would. Why else would he have been so negligent today?

At that moment, deep regret overwhelmed him.

That silly girl was probably crying all alone right now.

Suddenly, he didn't have the courage to go to her.

Meanwhile, Diana originally thought that he might come back after leaving. However, he didn't appear at the dining table even when it was dinner time.

Her heart gradually turned cold. Slowly, it hardened as well.

She pretended as if Julian didn't exist and took care of her twins as usual, hiding her emotions with a smile.

By the time she was done putting the twins to sleep, she felt like things had returned to how they were back at Stirling City.

It seemed there wasn't much of a difference between having no one and having someone to rely upon.

Either way, she was able to do whatever she needed to do, and she could do them well.

What's more, having someone to rely upon would only make her weak. It would even affect her mood.

Now that the children were asleep, it was time for her to go to the hospital and visit Simon.

Even at night, the hospital was still brightly lit and filled with patients. Even the corridors were swarmed with people.

Diana looked on at the many invalids lying on the beds, with tubes sticking out of their bodies. They struggled with even turning around.

Seeing them, compassion overflowed her heart.

It seemed that upon losing mobility, one would be stripped of all dignity.

While some others...

Turned from an ordinary person into a madman, with no clue what dignity was.

Like Cecilia-

Now that Diana had time to calm down and think things through, she realized what Julian said wasn't wrong.

Everything was fine when she left the hospital just this afternoon.

Everything went well.

The operation was a success.

"At that time, the doctor said he might not be able to feel his legs, or even stand.”

But at that time, Diana was in an unstable state. They didn't dare to tell her the truth.

Now that she was here to visit Simon in the ward, they knew it was impossible to hide the truth from her. She was going to find out sooner or later.

They would rather stand outside the door and make things clear to her, so she could be mentally prepared.

Diana felt as if the bees swarming around her had flown into her ears and up her brain. They buzzed non-stop, rendering her incapable of thinking and taking the next step.

She felt her knees grow weak, as if she were the one who lost the ability to stand instead of Simon.

She would rather be the one crippled.

Now, she had become guilty of crippling Simon. She had ruined the life of another person!
