Chapter 1227

Julian’s Stand-In Wife chapter 1227 Diana remained silent for a while.

Julian thought he might have said something wrong and quickly laid down, allowing her to rest comfortably in his arms.

He occasionally poked her petite nose, and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you suddenly feeling upset?”

“It’s nothing.” Diana nuzzled in his arms cutely. “I just suddenly thought about my parents.”

Perhaps it was due to her being pregnant again. This time, with her husband by her side, a child to look forward to, and friends like Nina as her support, it seemed like Diana now had everything she didn’t have before.

“…And Simon.”

The man she met briefly during the new year, and hadn’t seen since.

Julian smiled. ‘ Do you miss him?”

“Yeah,” Diana admitted.

Before Julian’s eyes could darken, she quickly pecked his face and continued, “I do miss him, but only as a friend, or even a sister-in-law.”

Humans were emotional creatures. Even now, Diana’s feelings about Simon were still quite complicated.

Julian responded with a low hum. At the same time, he lowered his head to kiss her.

Their married life had reached a happy balance through this kind of long-term understanding, making Diana feel warm inside.

“You can miss me,” Julian said, “but you’re only allowed to miss him for one minute. So now, let’s talk about something else to distract you.”

After learning about Diana’s pregnancy, Julian had become noticeably gentler.

Diana liked the way he was handling things now. His actions made it seem as if he could solve everything they needed to deal with.

She followed his pace, and asked, “What do you want to talk about?”

“Your parents.” Julian cleared his throat gently, and continued, “I’ve actually been looking for them recently.”

Hearing this, Diana looked at him in disbelief. “Why are you looking forthem?”

Lately, perhaps because of her pregnancy, she often thought about her parents.

Even so, that didn’t mean she wanted to see them.

Compared to Kate and James, it was better for Diana to think about her adoptive parents. It was a pity they had passed away due to an accident a long time ago. That was the only warmth she had during her childhood.

So, thinking of them now made her eyes feel teary.

“It’s nothing.” Julian didn’t want to share his suspicions with Diana without proper confirmation, and burden her.

So, he simply said, “After all, they’re my in-laws. What I fear the most is not knowing anything about them when you talk about them, like now. Especially when you’re about to give birth… I’ve seen many expectant mothers who want their own mothers with them, and I-“

“I don’t want her to be with me,” Diana told Julian. “You can rest assured. I don’t want her to be with me, so please don’t look forthem anymore. It’s a waste of time and energy.”

Since they had abandoned her again, she saw no reason to keep seeking their approval.

“What if…”

“What if, what?”

What if they weren’t your biological parents?

Julian really wanted to say these words, then reveal his suspicions about the twins and their connection to family.

He wanted to tell Diana that her father was likely also a twin, and that James was actually her true father’s twin brother.

That was why she looked so much like James, but had no emotional connection with him.

It was all because of their blood relation.

It was the reason James never had the inclination to be as close to Diana as he was to Kayla.

However, there was no concrete evidence yet. Julian didn’t want to raise these suspicions with Diana so quickly.
