Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1511

The bodyguard knew they were unable to exit the lab safely.

He counted down to the final second, then yelled at Kate, "Get down!"

Kate was stunned, but she managed to follow suit and threw herself on the floor.

A huge sound exploded right behind them.

The entire lab exploded in that instant.

By a stroke of luck, Kate and the bodyguard weren't hit by anything heavy, and only suffered some minor scratches.

It was ultimately due to Simon's quick thinking.

In order to prevent Diana from being hurt, he decided to jump out of the window with Jim.

The farther they were from the lab, the farther Diana would be from the impact of the explosion.

That would also allow both of them to die without leaving any part of their bodies behind.

Firstly, he didn’t want Diana seeing his corpse in a terrible state.

Secondly, having seen Jim get physically close to Diana, he wanted Jim to die a terrible death! Julian heard the explosion right behind them.

After passing Diana and Betty to the doctors, he headed to the scene of the explosion by himself.

The shocking impact of the explosion reached ten floors high.

Jim and Simon's bodies were completely unrecognizable.

Julian couldn't even tell them apart.

He didn’t even have a chance to talk to Simon before the latter died.

Julian saw a blade stuck to a burnt corpse.

It was the blade Diana brought everywhere with her after the incident with Luke, to defend herself.

She had given it to Simon, who eventually used it to protect her.

Simon had done it.

Diana would never forget him his entire life.

Julian stood right there, looking at the burnt remains all around as he picked up the blade.

He then pulled out the letter from his pocket and read through it.

"To Julian," the letter read.

Doctors and policemen swarmed the place, along with passers-by who came over out of curiosity upon hearing the explosion.

Despite the gathering crowd, Julian couldn't hear anyone at all.

He seemed to have entered another dimension.

He leaned against a wall, and slowly read through the contents of the letter.

By the time he was done reading it, he was crying.

Julian clenched the letter in his fist before smoothing it out and putting it back into the envelope.

He walked back to Diana.

She was still unconscious.

Betty sat by her side, grabbing her hand and calling out to her.

Meanwhile, the bodyguard carried Kate out of the rubble.

Kate was still confused as to what was happening, but her heart ached upon seeing Diana on the stretcher.

Her heart felt deep sorrow and joy for another.

She instinctively made her way to Diana.

Julian was stunned for a moment when he noticed Kate, but he quickly realized what was going on.

It was most likely I Jim's doing that Kate was here.

The bodyguard came over and said to Julian, "Mr.Simon Channing gave his instructions.He wanted me to bring Ms.Renforth to you, Mr.Fulcher.He said that your wife will need her mother by her side after she regains consciousness."

Julian couldn't let anything happen to Kate.

Simon had it all thought out right from the beginning.

Since he couldn't gain Jim’s trust, he would let Jim underestimate and disregard him.

That was what gave Simon the chance to die alongside Jim.

Julian suppressed the shock and sorrow in his heart, and asked the bodyguard, "His leg...He’s crippled.How did he manage to walk?"

"He’s using a prosthetic."

"Prosthetic?"

"Yes.Mr.Channing underwent a surgery before coming here.He said that he wanted to stand up once again, no matter how painful it would be.Being able to walk would ensure that he wouldn't drop the ball at the critical moment."

Even the bodyguard was moved by Simon’s actions.

"He has sacrificed much for your wife." This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Julian nodded, tears filling his eyes as he looked down.
