Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 135
“Julian!” Grandma’s face turned pale. Her eyes rolled back, and she passed out yet again.
At the same time, the monitor’s alarm began to ring.
Julian stood frozen in place. It felt like he had gone back in time to when he was still a child, when his parents and
grandfather left him one after the other.
Although Grandma was getting old, he never once considered the fact that she might leave him.
He was encapsulated by the fear of losing someone important. “Doctor! Doctor! Get the doctor!” He shouted
without even realizing he was shouting.
There was a moment of panic.
“Don’t make her upset.” None of the doctors in the hospital dared to give Julian a direct order. Vans was called over
by the director, and he spoke to Julian after receiving suggestions from his other colleagues who were specialists.
“Her physical condition isn’t as good as it was in the past. You have to do your best to agree with her. If her blood
pressure level gets too high, I can’t guarantee that we’ll be able to save her from another episode of cerebral
hemorrhage in time.”

After everyone else left the ward, Julian stayed by Grandma’s side for a while longer. She finally woke up
after some time.
This time, she didn’t need to say anything. “I agree to your requests,” Julian said.
Firstly, he would apologize to Diana. Secondly, he wouldn’t get a divorce with her.
However, he couldn’t find Diana after leaving Grandma’s ward.
Downstairs, in City Hospital’s cafeteria.
Diana was sitting inside the cafeteria with Nina while she leisurely ate her bowl of pork belly casserole that
happened to be the specialty dish here. The pork belly was fresh and a little on the sour side. Not only did it look
and smell good, it was also extremely appetizing.
Diana enjoyed it a lot.
However, Nina seemed very worried. “Diana, aren’t you upset that Julian forced you to get an abortion?”
“Of course I’m upset.” Diana took another few bites before chuckling. “I’m not a saint.”
This wasn’t the only thing he did that made her upset.
If she had to hold a grudge over everything he did, she would be the one suffering in the end. Julian wouldn’t
even be affected.
However, Diana’s facial expression turned a lot gloomier at the mention of her baby. She couldn’t resist caressing
her stomach. “I managed to keep the baby with Vans’s help this time, but I don’t know how much longer I can stand
doing this with Julian.”
How was Vans going to help her once her stomach grew larger?
Julian wasn’t blind.
“Stop mentioning Vans!” Nina said in a huff. “He wasn’t helping you at all. He clearly believes Julian isn’t such a
cruel person. That’s why he keeps making excuses for Julian! In reality, he wants to keep your baby alive, and he
thinks you shouldn’t have said the baby belonged to Oliver. He thinks it’s okay to side with Julian. Who forced you to
enter the operating room? Wasn’t it Julian who forced you to get an abortion?” Nina pierced her fork into a slice of
pork belly, furious. She wanted to tear it to shreds while imagining it was Vans. “He’s on Julian’s side. If he refuses
to admit that, he’s a bastard!”
Diana chuckled at Nina’s violent actions, but she couldn’t quite understand what was on Vans’s mind either.
However, she knew she had Vans to thank for protecting her baby this time.
If Vans hadn’t found an object to shape it into a developing foetus to fool Julian, Diana would’ve lost her baby

That was something Diana didn’t even dare to imagine.
“Grandma always says that she cares about you and adores you, but why was she so careless this time? Why would
she send a fake pregnancy test result to Julian? None of this would’ve happened…” Nina added.
“Grandma only wanted to help me.” Diana never once doubted Grandma’s intentions. “She had no other choice
after finding out that Julian and I went to the Civil Affairs Bureau. She wanted to salvage the marriage by using our
child as an excuse…” Diana trailed off and took a sip of her soup.
“She was already in such poor shape back in the ward, but she still apologized to me while she cried. She said she
shouldn’t have done something as stupid as this,” Diana added.
Madam Fulcher was a respectable person. Besides, she used to be a business legend in Richburgh. The old woman
had no reason to lower her standards for Diana.
Whether it was the apology or the faking of Diana’s pregnancy results, Grandma did all those with the intention of
helping Diana.
As such, Diana neither blamed her nor hated her for those things.
The wind started howling outside, and Diana was worried she might catch a cold. She urged Nina to finish her meal
quickly. She also told Nina not to be angry with Vans. On the contrary, she wanted Nina to thank him for helping her
out. Finally, Diana asked the kitchen staff to pack some porridge and a side dish.
