Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1366

The weather at Jacroaof was different from that of Richburgh.

Although it wasn’t cold, the change in temperature made Diana’s nose itch. She kept sneezing.

“It’s humid there,” Julian voiced his doubts. “Why does your nose still itch?”

Betty listened in on their conversation. Hearing her daddy’s question, she subconsciously glanced at Diana.

Mommy didn’t look too well.

Quick-witted Betty immediately got on tip-toes. Before Diana had a chance to reply to Julian, she said, “Daddy, don’t you know why Mommy doesn’t feel well?”

Julian replied, “Of course I do. It’s just, she’s at a different place. Her nose has always been sensitive. When she was a child, she suffered allergic rhinitis, but she didn’t take care of it. She—”

Beep.

Before he was done talking, Diana hung up on him.

True, she suffered from allergic rhinitis. Her condition couldn’t be treated completely, even after trying over so many years. She would always suffer from a relapse during seasonal changes.

Still, the relapses were never severe. She would sneeze and suffer a runny nose for a few days, and would usually recover very quickly.

This time round, she was slow to recover because her immunity had taken a hit due to her pregnancy. Not only did her allergic rhinitis worsen as she advanced in her pregnancy, but it was slow to recover each time.

Each relapse was worse than the previous.

Julian didn’t realize that her allergic rhinitis was related to her pregnancy. The thought of associating both of them never crossed his mind.

Because of that, Diana felt that he didn’t care enough about her.

She was pregnant! Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

And she was his wife, no less.

How could he disregard her this way?

She couldn’t take it lying down! She had to punish him.

Julian thought Diana had hung up on him because the signal was poor, and immediately called her back again.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

However, Diana rejected all of his calls.

That was when Julian belatedly realized that he might have touched a nerve and upset Diana.

But his conversation with her had been brief, and he uttered less than ten sentences to her. He ran through everything he said in his mind, but he couldn’t find anything wrong in what he said.

If there was anything he did poorly…

That would be…

He smacked his forehead, and immediately identified the problem.

“Betty!” He video-called Betty, wanting to speak with the mother-daughter pair.

However, Betty refused to answer his call.

On account of him being her father, she reminded him with a text. “Daddy, did you forget what changed when Mommy got pregnant?”

Julian pondered for a moment. What changed?

“Is Mommy angry because I said that she got fat?”

He paid special attention not to say anything like that, precisely because he was worried about angering her.

And yet, why was she still upset?

Julian texted Betty. “How about this? Answer my video call, and let me tell Mommy that she got fat. That would make everyone happy, wouldn’t it?”

Diana must be upset that he hadn’t been paying enough attention to her, and failed to realize what had changed about her.

If he pointed out the changes, wouldn’t that solve the problem?

Betty looked at Diana, who had leaned over and was staring at the screen. Her hands were trembling with frustration.

The last thing she texted him was a furious “Shut up!”, and then she switched off her phone.

Betty grinned at her mother. “Mommy…”

“Hmm.” Diana nodded, unable to smile.

That darn Julian! How dare he tell Betty that she got fat?
