Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Chapter 1414

Sue didn’t expect Cecilia’s blind date to do so well.

Since Cecilia believed her lies and was willing to break up with Noel, Sue had been trying to find suitable men in Richburgh for Cecilia.

However, she wasn’t able to find anyone from the heirs of wealthy families, or outstanding students from the Chimmery and Jarvis families.

Finally, a friend of hers told Sue about the café.

“That café is the most popular blind date venue for young people right now. Find someone suitable, and let Cecilia meet him there.

“They’re all youngsters who are there for a blind date. Even if they end up not liking each other, they can be friends and things won’t be awkward between them. It’s pretty good.”

And so, Sue took on her friend’s suggestion.

For the sake of her daughter’s future happiness, she made a trip to the café to confirm that the people attending the blind dates there weren’t bad first. Then, she selected an ex-student of hers.

He was a man of few words, a decent-looking lad who was currently a university lecturer.

However, he was from a humble family background that was pretty far off from the Jarvises’ status. Yet, it was precisely this that gave the Jarvises the control they wanted over him, even after Cecilia married him.

Should Cecilia suffer a relapse in the future, the Jarvises wouldn’t need to feel less worthy.

Why?

Because her daughter was marrying someone unworthy of her in the first place!

If the Jarvises weren’t picky, all the less reason for the other family to be picky.

Sue thought that Cecilia might not fancy him after meeting him. To her surprise, Cecilia came back in all smiles, and told her, “Mom, I decided to continue trying things out with him.”

Sue’s eyes lit up.

That café really was a prime spot for blind dates! Even Cecilia met with success in her first attempt.

“It doesn’t mean that I intend to be in a relationship with him,” Cecilia clarified, her hair standing on end when she saw her mother’s burning gaze. “I’m just willing to try keeping in contact with him for now.”

Sue nodded. “Of course.” She grabbed Cecilia’s hand. “As long as you are willing to walk out of your previous relationship, I’ll support you in anything you do.”

As long as the other party was not Noel. Sue wasn’t even sure of the situation right now, especially after Julian provoked the Hughes family.

Anyway, Noel’s family background was too lowly. She didn’t want to marry Cecilia over and let her suffer.

She patted Cecilia. “How does he look?”

He looked…

Cecilia thought about Larry’s chubby yet sincere features, and furrowed her brows. “He’s not very good-looking.”

That was her conclusion of that man.

“Not good-looking?” Sue said with an arch of her brow. “You have such high standards!”

She tapped her phone, and retrieved the photo of her student to compare it with a celebrity. “If you compare these, then yes, he’s not very good-looking.”

Cecilia pursed her lips. She already had her suspicions about her mother’s taste for this blind date. Now, things were even stranger.

“Why are you showing me these pictures? Neither of them were my blind date.”

Given the power and status of the Jarvis family, it wouldn’t be strange for them to call a for Cecilia’s blind date.

However, the Jarvises didn’t want a son-in-law from the entertainment industry. This, they wouldn’t do that. Therefore, the man that Sue wanted to introduce to her had to be the other man.

The thing was, that man looked nothing like Larry.

“Even if he got fat, he couldn’t have possibly turned so unrecognizable…” Cecilia tapped her phone, and showed Sue a photo of Larry.

It was a photo of Cecilia and Larry together.

It wasn’t an intimate couple photo. Rather, it was a very formal photo the café staff took for them, for documentation purposes. They were seated in their own seats while looking at the camera.

It was obvious that Larry felt rather stiff. He was even looking in another direction.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
