Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1497

Sue didn’t want a daughter like this!

“I’m sadder than any of you about Cecilia’s current situation, ” she said. But the important thing now is to solve the problem.”

Noel sneered. “So instead of dealing with that scumbag, the plan now is to get rid of Cecilia from the Jarvis family?

Because she’s no longer the pampered, obedient, and perfect young lady you used to cherish? Because she’s now a woman who has suffered from madness, one who has just experienced sexual harassment?”

Sue couldn’t bear it any longer. “Shut up! You don’t understand!”

He simply didn’t understand her love for Cecilia.

If Cecilia had called him first when she was in trouble, it proved she still loved him.

Since Cecilia loved him, then why not marry him?

Sue wasn’t stopping them now!

The only way to divert attention from the pre-arranged blind date was to announce Cecilia and Noel’s engagement, claiming that the couple was deeply in love and perfect for each other. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Sue didn’t want to waste more time talking with Noel. Her long-standing high position had made her very authoritarian and decisive.

“I’ll buy you a house for a wedding gift, and the date is set for next month. I will also inform Julian about this.”

In other words, Noel’s opinion was irrelevant.

Why would it be?

The Jarvises were great, and allowing Noel to become their family’s son-in-law was already a high honor.

Yet, Sue didn’t offer to explain to Cecilia how she had accused Noel of taking money from the Jarvis family.

Moreover…

She treated Noel like Julian’s dog. It was as if Noel had no room for opposition as long as Julian agreed.

Fortunately, Noel was loyal to Julian.

Noel closed his eyes, and sighed. He stood outside the door, peering into the room through the window.

Cecilia was looking outside eagerly. When her gaze met his, surprise appeared on her face.

She had just asked him not to leave.

Noel’s heart was in a mess.

He thought the Jarvises would take care of everything, since they cared so much for her. He didn’t expect Sue to treat Cecilia as a hot potato and throw her to his side.

He wondered if Cecilia had heard their conversation just now.

Noel suddenly felt sorry for her.

Sue had already gone downstairs, and he could still hear her talking to the servants. It seemed she was asking someone to change her clothes and put on light makeup.

Even when her daughter was in such a state, Sue was still more concerned about maintaining her proper and dignified image.

For the first time, Noel realized that terms like “proper” and ” dignified” could be so ironic.

The longer Noel stayed outside the room, the dimmer Cecilia’s eyes became.

She was already humble enough.

Even disregarding past frustration and expressing her plea for him to stay, Noel crushed her feelings underfoot.

She recalled the scene at Larry’s house-his hand on her body, his mouth…like a nauseating, sticky insect crawling over her legs.

“Ugh!”

Cecilia sat up abruptly, vomiting. The trauma she had experienced this time had only just begun.
