Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 103
Having said that, Kate pointed out the earrings to Diana. “They do look like the ones you gave me, so it was clearly fate that you
two met.”
It was much more than a similar resemblance.
Diana could remember anything her grandmother gave her. Even though she didn’t know the exact value, she could remember
every detail of the item.
The ones on Lyra’s ears were clearly the same ones she had left at the lake.
“Since it’s fate, how about we have a drink together?” Kayla suggested happily.
Kate immediately called for wine to be brought over and poured a glass for Diana, Kayla, and Lyra. “Yes, that’s right. This is the
first time you sisters have officially met, and Lyra came to congratulate me on my birthday. I’m so happy to see all three of you
here, so let’s have a toast!”
Lyra and Kayla hurriedly took their glasses.
“Thank you, Mrs. Winnington.”
“Thank you, Mom!”
Diana refused to take a glass as she was pregnant. “I can’t drink.”
“Why are you always such a spoilsport? You always refuse me when I’m happy about something!” Kate was obviously a little
upset, and even Kayla’s face twisted slightly.
The happiness from before was gone almost instantly. Suddenly, Lyra said, “Diana? I didn’t mean to splash water on you in the
washroom just now, but you kept staring at me like I was a thief and it made me uncomfortable. I understand why you did it after
Mrs. Winnington explained the earrings to me. So, I’ll drink first as an apology, okay?”
Diana didn’t expect Lyra to tie the washroom incident to drinking. She quickly stepped back, feeling a headache building. The
smell of wine was starting to get to her. “I appreciate your intentions, but I really
can’t drink.”

Kayla started to become anxious. The poison she and Lucy had prepared was on Diana’s glass.
Kayla hadn’t poured or touched the wine, so when Diana died, she and Lucy wouldn’t be implicated even if the police
investigated. Kate would take the fall and become a disgrace to the Winnington family for poisoning her daughter with her own
hands. By then, Lucy would have the opportunity to rise to the top and
top a
take her seat as the Winningtons‘ mistress.
As for Lyra... She was simply a sycophant who liked to flatter Kayla. Kayla saw her as useful, so she threw the earrings Diana
had tossed to Lyra. She hadn’t expected Diana to meet Lyra in the washroom or for Lyra to splash water on Diana’s face, which
now became an excuse so that Diana would drink.
However, it all didn’t matter now because Diana refused to drink.
Kayla started to get more anxious as time passed. “Diana, you refused to participate in the speech and mingle with the guests.
Now, you won’t even toast to Mom. Aren’t you being a little too selfish? It’s her birthday!”
Lyra followed suit. “Don’t worry, Kayla. Diana grew up in the boonies, so no one taught her how to behave in settings like these.
Right, Diana?”
Seeing how enthusiastic they were about getting her to drink, Diana’s vigilance intensified. Even if she wasn’t pregnant, she
definitely wouldn’t drink the wine. She refused even more firmly, saying, “My wound from two days ago hasn’t healed yet, and the
doctor forbade me from drinking alcohol.”
This served as a reminder to Kate, who finally remembered that Diana had been kidnapped and injured. According to Kayla,
Diana suffered much that day. Her heart ached slightly for Diana, and she called someone to switch the wine with juice.
“Never mind,” Kate said, glancing at the two girls. “Diana’s not feeling well, so she can drink this instead.“
