Julian's Stand in Wife

Chapter 1279

Chapter 1279

Layla was busy setting the table. The Fulcher family had many traditions; they had different tablecloths for every

meal, a rule established by the late Madam Fulcher. She believed that anyone who enjoyed their meals was

someone who loved life. As an elderly lady, she wanted to be one who loved life.

Now, she was gone, but her habits and spirit remained forever.

Diana watched Layla bustling around, and suddenly felt her eyes welling up with tears.

Julian had followed behind her. Upon seeing her standing still, he understood her emotions instantly. He held her

hand again.

"Let's not argue anymore, okay? If Grandma finds out, she might want to take me away in her dreams tonight."

"...What nonsense are you spouting?"

Madam Fulcher wouldn't want to take her beloved eldest grandson away so early.

"Are you not angry anymore?"

Seeing Diana talking to him again, a smug smile graced Julian's lips. Before Diana could react, he swiftly planted a

kiss on her cheek.

Their affectionate relationship was well known within the Fulcher family, but such intimacy was rarely displayed so

openly in front of others. Today, everyone around them was getting a taste of it. They also witnessed the look in

Julian’s eyes-one that showed that Diana was the only person in his world.

"Don't worry," Julian said. He embraced her, and they returned to their affectionate state, walking toward the chairs

at the dining table. "In two weeks, I’ll definitely satisfy you."

He said it as if they were discussing their dinner plans. With so many people around, Diana couldn't refute him. All

she could do was blush and pinch his hand lightly.

Layla saw this, and sighed in relief.

She thought she had once again misspoken and given the wrong impression, potentially causing discord between

the couple. She had felt guilty-to her surprise, Julian and Diana seemed to be getting along better than ever.

It looked like the couple wasn't affected at all.

"I won't blabber anymore," she vowed, smacking her own mouth twice as a self-inflicted punishment.

In the past, Julian would've certainly made Layla return to the Fulcher Manor on her own for a while, to cool off and

see if she'd still be so talkative next time.

However, this time, he didn't. Since remarrying Diana, he had indeed become much more composed, especially

when around her.

"It's alright," Julian said. "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to give away the shares and the

houses so quickly."

Diana became a bit nervous as Julian mentioned this.

Julian had a more relaxed attitude about the houses since the transfer had already been completed, but Diana still

had some reservations. The houses were incredibly expensive, and transferring them back would incur significant

expenses.

Diana had a thrifty lifestyle, and considered this expenditure unnecessary.

She explained, "I can accept keeping the houses, but the shares... They're too important. I can't imagine

participating in high-level company or shareholder meetings to vote on important decisions. I have no knowledge

about Fulcher Inc.' s business, and I'm not capable of handling such important matters."

Julian replied confidently, "What's wrong with you participating? When the time comes, you can sit on my lap. Well

see who dares to pull you down."

Diana blinked. "...You really want me to sit on your lap during important meetings?"
