Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1509

She smiled at Jim, then turned to look at Julian with disdain.

"Take Betty away."

She was willing to do anything as long as they stayed safe.

As for the babies in her womb...

She would never let Jim take them away.

She was useless as a mother.

All she could do at such a critical moment was to consider dying with her children.

Julian’s hand, which held Betty's, was trembling.

He didn’t dare to let Betty see the scene unfolding before them.

Julian turned around and gave Betty to Simon.

"Simon, take Betty away."

Jim didn't talk to or look at Simon since they came in.

It was clear that Jim looked down on Simon, as if mocking him for overestimating himself.

It was enough proof that Simon brought Julian here today of his own accord, and not that he was in cahoots with Jim.

Thus, Julian felt assured leaving Betty in Simon's hands.

Simon refused to, and pointed at Julian's chest instead.

That was where Julian kept the letter that Simon gave him before they entered the office.

Julian must stay alive and give Diana the letter.

Simon couldn't speak, but the meaning in his eyes was clear.

A thought flashed past Julian’s mind; but before he could wrap his mind around it, Simon shoved him hard.

Both he and Betty were pushed out of the office.

A heavy stone door closed them out of the lab, shutting them out of Jim’s life.

Jim didn't expect this turn of events.

Confusion flashed past his eyes.

"Simon, what are you trying to do?"

Simon remained silent, but he kept glancing at someone next to Jim.

The person who had been helping Jim restrain Diana suddenly grabbed a rope, and wrapped it tightly around Jim’s neck.

Diana finally had the chance to escape from Jim.

Seizing the chance while Jim was still under control, Simon hurriedly pulled Diana over, opened the door to the lab, and pushed her out.

His eyes made it clear that he was bidding her farewell.

Diana’s heart trembled, and she instinctively yelled, "No!"

She wasn't leaving! She couldn't leave! "Simon, what exactly are you trying to do?"

There were still explosives tied to Jim.

If anything were to happen, Simon would be blasted to smithereens! "We can leave together!"

Diana grabbed his hand, trying to pull Simon out of the lab.

Simon refused, and glanced at Julian.

He mustered his strength and managed a feeble command, his voice sounding as rough as sandpaper, "Take her away!"

Julian wanted to say more, but the door started to close.

If he couldn't get Diana out, she would once again be trapped inside.

There were only two minutes left on the timer of the explosives.

There was no time left.

Even the person restraining Jim was about to lose control.

That was the only way to ensure that Diana, Julian and Betty could leave in one piece.

If Jim were broke free and chase after them, none of them would survive! The explosives tied on Jim were very destructive.

Beep, beep! The timer on the explosives was counting down the final minute.

Even if Julian ran out with Diana right now, it would be tough for them to even reach the entrance.

If the explosives harmed her while she was pregnant...

Simon knew things couldn't go on like this.

He hit Diana's neck, and Julian caught her in his arms.

Both men didn’t say anything, but they understood the look in each other's eyes.

Someone had to die here today.
