Julian’s Stand-In Wife By South Wind Dialect Chapter 399
James’s expression changed drastically at Diana’s words.
“W–What hidden story?” he stammered.
Lucy’s eyes flashed with anger.
“Stop making things up, Diana!”
“I haven’t even said anything about it. How would you know if I’m making it up or not?” Diana asked with a mocking
laugh.
As she stood there, she looked like a charming existence that had emerged from an ancient painting. She seemed
calm, but she exuded a fairy–like aura around her that made it impossible for all who looked at her to disrespect
her.
There was also a majestic and dignified light around her, one that incited admiration in many.
Lucy subconsciously compared Diana to Kayla and couldn’t help but lament deeply in her heart. They should’ve just
killed this little b*tch back then! Had they done so, Diana wouldn’t turn out to be such a threat!
Lucy’s eyes were so vicious that it was impossible to ignore.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Diana wasn’t the slightest bit afraid. She looked at Lucy and said calmly, “I’m still waiting for your reply,
Lucy.”
Lucy remained quiet, and Diana continued, “Did you get so worked up because you knew what I was talking about?”
Lucy felt her breath hitch.
Oh… She had fallen for it!
Diana had set her up for this!
“The Fulcher family has taken care of you well for the past three years, haven’t they?”
That was the only thing Lucy could say now, her face red with anger.
It was true that Diana’s current temperament and the reason she had turned out this way had much to do with the
Fulcher family. However, the biggest reason for her change was herself.
After she divorced Julian, Diana stopped worrying about the pros and cons of the situation and no longer
underestimated herself.
“More than that, I’m just talented.”
While she was stuck in the boonies, her talent for design had given her plenty of opportunities to give herself much
needed exposure to the outside world.
She had her fears and concerns when Julian had first proposed to her. More than that, she had accepted his
proposal with grace.
She had believed from the bottom of her heart that if she worked hard enough, she would eventually gain the same
footing as him and that he would always love her.

Later on, she realized that his so–called love at first sight and marriage proposal had all been a lie. Julian’s wealth
and power were far beyond her imagination.
When she thought about this, she couldn’t help the self–deprecating and bitter look that came to her face.
When James saw her expression, he instantly misunderstood it and assumed that Diana had seen through
everything, and that she was mocking him.
“Just what the hell do you know?”
James knew that he was thoroughly defeated in this confrontation.
For a moment, he even saw the image of Julian in Diana. The overwhelming pressure he usually felt from the man
gradually spread from her body, giving him the subconscious desire to surrender unconditionally.
Because of the fact that Diana had grown up in the countryside, James had been short–sighted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow, the young lady before him was no longer that naive countryside girl.
In fact, it was clearly justifiable how Julian had fallen in love with Diana.
James was seriously regretting the fact he had listened to Lucy in the past, and deliberately lost Diana when she
was only three years old.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be in the position he was in now and be threatened by Kayla.
How had he missed the vicious ambitions of the mother–daughter pair at the beginning?
Alas, it was too late to say anything. He had no other choice but to stay in the same boat they were on now.
So far, everything had only been speculation on Diana’s end. After seeing James’s reaction, she knew that her
guesses had been more or less spot on.
“As a child…”
Diana’s tone was light, as though she was talking about someone else’s misfortune. In fact, she was as calm as
someone talking about the weather.
“You’re the one who lost me on purpose in order to let yours and Lucy’s illegitimate child, Kayla, enter the family as
the eldest lady.”
“That’s rubbish!” James exclaimed, his face flushed an ugly red. He was almost stomping his feet in
And as everyone knew, the more exaggerated one’s reactions were, the more guilty one appeared.
