Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1525

Now, the hands that remained there have changed owners.

Nina couldn’t express the mockery and bitterness deep within her heart.

After casting a glance at Vans, she said, “Ms. Jennings, you’ve misunderstood. I have a boyfriend.”

As she uttered these words, her gaze never left him. Vans, however, didn’t avert his eyes either. The two of them stood there staring at each other. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Seeing this, Lina turned red with anger, “Dear!”

Her hand trailed up Vans’s chest. Without hesitation, she grabbed the back of his head, planting a kiss on his lips.

Vans wanted to pull away, but found no opportunity.

Lina held on too tightly. Given the weight of her wedding gown, if he were to push her away forcefully, she would undoubtedly fall.

If she did fall, it would be even more troublesome for Nina.

Vans didn’t want to cause any more trouble for Nina, so he let Lina proceed.

However, to Nina, this passionate scene wasn’t what it seemed.

She had thought that Vans and Lina were merely putting on an act. But now, it appeared there might be genuine feelings involved.

For the first time, she began to doubt her judgment.

“Mr. Stanley, Ms. Jennings, I’ll take my leave.”

Nina couldn’t bear to stay any longer.

Seeing her distress, Vans finally managed to find a chance to push Lina away.

He wanted to go after Nina, but was once again stopped by Lina.

The anger in her eyes was almost uncontrollable. Yet, Vans couldn’t care less.

“I’ll see her off.”

“No need.”

Sensing his dilemma, and perhaps softening a bit, Nina took out her phone. She flashed a bright smile as she waved it and said, “I’m meeting up with my boyfriend. He’s waiting downstairs for me.”

Lina’s interest was piqued. “Downstairs?”

She had assumed Nina and Vans hadn’t genuinely broken up, but now she realized she had misunderstood.

Lina refused to let Nina go. She wanted answers.

The staff members blocked Nina’s path.

Vans was on the brink of losing his patience.

Yet, unexpectedly, Nina spoke up again, “Yes.”

She approached the window, seemingly indifferent to Lina’s attempts to corner her. “He’s waiting downstairs.”

At this moment, there was indeed a luxurious black SUV parked below the bridal store. With a license plate full of sixes, it clearly didn’t belong to an ordinary person.

“I’ll head down first.”

This time, Lina didn’t stop Nina.

Downstairs, the taxi driver from earlier was growing impatient. Seeing Nina emerge, he demanded extra money for the delay.

“It’s my fault for taking too long,” Nina said generously, handing the driver a hundred-dollar bill. “Please put my purchases into that black SUV over there.”

At that moment, Marcus Jensen was sitting inside the black SUV.

He had been filming all night yesterday. Early this morning, he discovered that photos of him and a female co-star from a few days ago during their rehearsal had been leaked.

They were even given misleading captions suggesting inappropriate activities in the room.

Despite the studio’s clarifications, his fans wouldn’t listen, believing that he was engaging in inappropriate relationships on set.

The damage to Marcus’s image was severe.

Normally, he wouldn’t bother addressing such matters himself. If fans abandoned him, it merely indicated they weren’t loyal.

Furthermore, even if he lost all his fans, he remained unfazed. After all, he relied on his acting skills. Sooner or later, he’d gain new fans.

However, the journalist who leaked the photos had some connections with Fanny.
