Chapter 1011

Diana sighed in relief, then shot Julian an annoyed glance. With her daughter present, she couldn't say much. She could only warn him not to speak recklessly with her eyes. But with Betty causing a scene like that, Diana's plan to slowly discuss the matter of letting the children choose who to live with was put on hold.Later, Simon urged her a few times, asking if she had talked to Julian and the kids. Each time, Diana said it wasn't urgent.It only made Simon more anxious. "And what about what I said about leaving with you? Have you considered that?"Without waiting for Diana to answer, he continued, "Do you find me repulsive now that I'm disabled, Diana? You...""Simon!" For the first time, Diana snapped at him. Knowing that she had reacted badly, she rubbed her forehead in frustration and apologized, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap."However, his continuous self-deprecation exhausted her. Lately, even in front of him, she found herself speaking with extreme caution.

Diana's face turned red all of a sudden. She hadn't expected Julian to voluntarily admit that he had been cheated on.Very quickly, she realized she didn't need to feel sorry for him."So, you're using me as a backup plan now? You knew Cecilia fell for someone else, so you turned to me?" She was back to blaming him. Julian was speechless at her line of thinking.Never attempt to reason with a woman.Still, he couldn't help but try. "That's not what I meant."There seemed to be plenty of grief in Julian's eyes. Before Diana could react, he suddenly buried his face in her embrace. "From the start, I only thought of you. Agreeing to Sue's engagement request and bringing Cecilia back was just a situation I couldn't avoid."Otherwise, he could never get Shiloh to treat Cecilia.The Stewarts and the Jarvises were part of high society. For Cecilia's long-term well-being, they had to control her illness with slow-acting Western medicine. If news of her illness spread, it would be

They all had their own responsibilities to bear, and everything that happened was intertwined with her. Even Julian's responsibility over Cecilia wouldn't have existed if she hadn't interfered in the first place. In the end, she blamed herself, sobbing, "It's all my fault. Sniff, sniff... Now, Heaven’s punishing me…” She held onto him, crying sadly. Her accumulated frustration and suppressed emotions flew out in a torrential flood. Julian's shoulder soon became wet.She cried and cried, and his heart shed tears for her as well.Julian embraced her. "Heaven can't punish you. If it dares to, I'll stab it through the sky!"She laughed softly. In the dim yellow light, her eyes glistened with tears. She was smiling through her tears. "How can you be so powerful as to do that?""That's how powerful I am—"Before he could finish his sentence, Diana pressed her lips against his. "Mmm..."Although their situation was still a mess, Julian quickly turned the tables.Before anything

After Diana woke up, Julian even had Layla deliver some medicine to her. Layla seemed hesitant. "The master said..."Diana looked at the white pill in her hand, an uncontrollable chill running down her spine. "What did he say?""He said... If you take this, it’d help avoid causing trouble for everyone," Layla replied, her head hanging even lower."Fine." The word seemed to be forced out of Diana's mouth, but she understood. The white pill was probably a contraceptive pill."I'll take it."With that, she picked up a glass of water and swallowed the pill. The bitterness of the pill seemed to leave an acrid taste in her heart.Days went by, but she couldn't shake off the unease. Whenever she saw Julian, she would think of the "deal" they made and that white pill.Gradually, that white pill became a thorn in her heart.Even without words, the twins could sense the turbulent animosity between them.Betty held her doll and sat obediently on the couch. She asked her all-knowing o

Julian even obediently lowered his body, looking almost submissive. Diana found it disdainful. It made her angrier. Without hesitation, she bit his arm."Still the same as before," he said, as if teasing a little dog. He patted Diana’s head playfully and smiled. "Always biting people at the slightest provocation."Saying that, he revealed the teeth marks on his arm to her. Those bite marks seemed to have been there for quite some time. A few distinct tooth imprints remained clearly visible."You're the one who left these marks," Julian reminded her with a knowing smile, aware that she might not remember.Diana was momentarily lost in thought. The marks gave her a glimpse of certain moments of joy she had shared with Julian.However, she couldn't recall those moments at all.That didn't stop her heart from suddenly softening, though.Even so, her gaze soon grew tender, and her voice became gentler. She couldn't help but sniffle slightly. "Tell me already! What's the deal with

Diana was speechless.She had clearly abided by the rules. How did she suddenly become someone with so many shortcomings in Julian's eyes?She stopped, and forcefully pulled her hand away from his grasp. "Can you please stop bringing up that night?"After taking the pill he had Layla deliver, she felt regret. But more than that, she felt shame!She had actually taken the initiative to be intimate with such a scumbag who made her take morning-after pills!She despised herself.And yet, back then…Her body was beyond her control, and was irresistibly drawn to Julian with an inexplicable infatuation."What's wrong?" His hand landed on her lower abdomen. "Are you pregnant?""Julian!"She was genuinely angry now.Angry that he would ask this question, even though he knew it was impossible. Angry that he had her take that pill, yet was asking her this on purpose!He was rubbing salt in her wounds, making her suffer in silence.He stubbornly held her hand, refusing to allow her

"What about Simon and Cecilia?" Diana asked.She stood rooted to the spot, ashamed for harboring the thoughts deep within her heart."Am I acting very irresponsible?" Julian kept looking at her, like a prince gazing at his princess. His expression was so focused, and his voice so captivating. "Life is short. Isn't it better to live following your heart?"Diana remained silent."Did you come to see me today just because Betty wouldn't let you hold her or get close? In the days of abiding by the rules, didn't you ever yearn for me? Did you never wonder why I didn't initiate a conversation with you? Didn't you feel upset? If you do, then it's proof that you still care about me. That night...was a result of strong feelings that went out of control."As Julian slowly dissected her actions, the feelings Diana suppressed in her heart yearned to burst out. However, they timidly retreated. She still had her most pressing concern. "Simon and Cecilia..."She bit her lip, her overwhelmin

"Would you reconcile with Daddy if we didn't do that?" Betty snorted. Not forgetting the mastermind of the plan, she continued, "Sean is amazing!"Sean appeared completely composed, as if he wasn't the one who came up with the idea. Yet, there was happiness in his eyes. He mirrored Julian almost perfectly.Diana looked at them, and smiled contentedly. "Sean’s becoming more and more like you."Julian raised an eyebrow, clearly in a good mood. "After all, he's my son. If he doesn't take after me, who else would it be?"Diana was about to call him out for being cheeky, when a voice interrupted them. "Where are you guys going?"It was Simon.Diana froze, and subconsciously glanced at Julian. She felt a bit embarrassed to let Simon see her and Julian looking so happy together. This would be too cruel for Simon, who was now disabled and had confessed his feelings to her but was rejected.That was also one of the reasons she had been trying to restrain her emotions regarding Julian

With Simon around, Diana couldn't fully let go.She had to suppress her happiness. She needed to take Simon's feelings into account."You go and play with the kids. I'll stay here with Simon," she said."It's okay. The attractions they're playing are child-friendly. I've arranged for an assistant to watch over them, so safety won't be an issue. You can go play on that one." Julian pointed to the carousel. "We'll be waiting for you outside the carousel. You can see me and Simon anytime.""That's right," Simon said. "You're already here. Won't you be disappointed if you don't go on any of the rides? Go ahead."He smiled. "My brother and I will be waiting here. Just look up, and you'll see us."This was Simon's way of saying he was fine with Julian accompanying him.When Simon called Julian his brother, Diana's heart skipped a beat. She instinctively glanced at Julian. Fortunately, it seemed he was immune to the term now."Go ahead," Julian said. Encouraged by their words, D

Continuing the ride wasn't an option, and going to Simon wasn't either.However, Julian didn't give her any time to ponder. "Quick, look over here!"Suddenly, he embraced her from behind and shouted happily to Simon, "Thanks for taking the photo for us, Brother! You're really considerate!"Simon was just about to check the time on his phone when he heard Julian's words. He replied with a slightly forced smile, "You're welcome."He maintained that smile, and opened the camera app.Click!Julian planted a kiss on Diana's cheek.She was shocked. But there was shyness in that surprise. She looked in Simon's direction, a bit bewildered.This scene was captured perfectly in Simon’s phone.She truly looked beautiful.Much, much more beautiful than back in Stirling City. Simon could see a vibrant air around her, one that hadn't existed before.Reluctantly, he had to admit that Julian brought about this change.However... Smiling, he said to Julian and Diana, "Brother, my phone's
