Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1485

With his hand over her mouth, Cecilia found it difficult to breathe. She could only struggle with all her might.

“Mmm…”

But she was too weak, and all she could muster was some weak grunts. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The knocking soon stopped. Noticing the silence, the hope in Cecilia’s eyes dimmed.

Suddenly…

Bam!

The knocking on the door continued; this time, it was even harder.

“Delivery! Please open the door!”

Larry had ordered a bunch of room decorations before.

“Are they here already?”

They were very important. They helped to enliven the mood. He also hoped that Cecilia would feel happier upon seeing them.

Larry wanted a festive feel; he didn’t want to feel miserable, especially with all the crying and shrieking that he was hearing right now. It made him feel as though he was a kidnapper and a murderer.

They were clearly in a relationship of their own will!

Cecilia came to his house of her own accord. He didn’t kidnap her here.

Larry flashed Cecilia a smile. “Be good. Go to the bedroom and wait for me there.”

With that, he dragged her by force all the way to the bedroom.

Before Cecilia came, he had upgraded the locking mechanism of all the doors in the house. These special locks could only be opened with him standing outside.

No matter how much Cecilia banged the door from inside the room, she would never be able to open the door.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

To prevent her from yelling out loud, he even taped her mouth.

He said valiantly, “I’m trying to work hard for our beautiful future! Cecilia, we’re bound to suffer if we want to stay together. Don’t panic, I’ll be back soon.”

He said it so thoughtfully, with such a kind look on his face.

Had Cecilia not seen through how cruel he really was, she might still think of him as a simple and honest man until now!

She felt so much regret, she had the urge to jump down a building.

If she compared Larry and Noel, Noel’s greed for money didn’t seem like such a major problem. At the very least, he didn’t try to kill her!

Thinking of Noel, her heart sank.

She finally had the chance to call him via the shortcut button, and even texted him. She was behaving so abnormally, yet he didn’t respond to her at all. He didn’t call her back, either.

He probably couldn’t be bothered with her anymore.

Why was she always so unlucky? Each time she tried to look for a partner, she always ended up getting hurt.

If she had a chance to go home, she would never get into another relationship ever again!

All she wanted to do was to stay by her mother’s side, and be a little girl forever.

But…

She seemed to have lost the chance to do that.

Cecilia sank in hopeless misery. Tears sprang into her eyes and regret filled her heart.

Meanwhile, Larry had opened the door. A bunch of men in black squeezed in through the entrance.

“Who are you?!” Larry yelled, trying to stop them from coming in. However, there were too many of them, and each of them were trained personnel.

They were the bodyguards of the Fulcher household. Right after Noel called them, they hurried over to Larry’s place. The moment they opened the door, they saw the mess inside and a phone with a furry keychain placed atop the cabinet.

Their faces turned solemn, and one of them asked, “Where is Ms. Jarvis?”

Larry’s eyes widened. “Ms. Jarvis? What Ms. Jarvis?!”

Seeing Larry acting dumb, they pushed him away and began searching for Cecilia in the house.

Very soon, a bunch of old men and women appeared at the door.

“What are you doing?! Everyone, quick! Come over and help! Larry’s house is getting burgled in broad daylight!”
