Chapter 1271

The agitation in Julian’s eyes faded as he looked at Diana. The coldness in them from when he was at Collina Villa had vanished without a trace as well.If he could be described as the moon just now, then at the moment, he was the sun—able to warm and even burn everything up in his presence.At the same time, he was like a peacock with its feathers open.Diana looked at Julian’s soft hair. Up close, she could tell that he had taken the effort to style his hair. He even had a sapphire blue lapel pin on his sleeve.She looked at Julian, confused. She was about to ask him if today was a special occasion, when he shot a strained smile at Jim. “Professor Hughes, do you need a lift?”In clear contrast with the smile on his face, his eyes blazed coldly. “Oh, I’m so sorry. I forgot that I drove a sports car today. It can only seat two people.”He was making it clear that he didn’t want to leave the zoo with Jim.Julian thought Jim would get the hint and leave. That was what Jim did

Chapter 1272

In a voice so soft and unwittingly pitiful, she asked, “Julian, why are you being so fierce to me?”Julian’s heart melted at once. The troubled and cold look in his eyes faded.“I’m not being fierce,” Julian said as he grabbed her hand, leading her to the front passenger seat. He ignored Jim completely as he started the car, fully intending to bring Diana home. “Don’t cry. I have a surprise for you at home.”With that, he glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that Jim was really following behind them.Julian ignored him.Instead, he focused his attention on Diana seated next to him, asking her in a low voice that was starkly different from how he spoke just now, “Who told you about your family background?”As he had expected, Diana said, “Professor Hughes.”Julian’s heart fell with a thud.Jim had appeared in their lives in a very strange manner. He was also inexplicably linked with Enzo. Now...he even revealed to Diana about her birth circumstances.Julian began feeling upse

Chapter 1273

Diana was the only one who carried twins in all three of her pregnancies.The only explanation was that her birth circumstances were different from what they knew.“I instructed Noel to look into the matter, and he came back with something. You’re not James Winnington’s biological daughter, and James himself isn’t a biological son of the Winnington family.”Diana was able to accept her birth circumstances when she thought of how James and Kate treated her over the years. It was why she didn’t feel so shocked by the revelation.However, she was rendered speechless upon hearing about James possibly not being the biological son of the Winnington family.“Then my father… No, James Winnington. Whose child is he?”“As of now, I have no clue,” Julian said. He had recently been bogged down with dealing with Professor Lemmington and Sean’s affairs, and had no time to continue his investigations. What’s more…He looked darkly at the rearview mirror.Jim’s car was still right behind his

The corner of Julian’s eyes lifted, making him look suave yet affectionate. “Be it Collina Villa, Fulcher Manor, or all the other houses I own, everything has been transferred to you.”Julian pushed the pile of property deeds aside, and pointed at another document. “This is for you, too.”Diana looked down; shocked, she realized that it was a letter of transfer of shares.The letter stated that all the shares Julian held in Fulcher Inc. were hereby transferred to his wife, Diana Winnington, in full.That was equivalent to handing her an entire mountain of gold!Even Jim’s face changed when he overheard what Julian said as he stepped into the living room uninvited.Julian…Treated Diana so well.A sincere smile of admiration emerged on his face.It was so sincere, even someone as guarded as Julian couldn’t find anything wrong with it.When he turned to look at Diana, the smile on Jim’s face grew wider.He admired this husband-and-wife pair from the bottom of his heart.H

Chapter 1275

It took hard work to maintain a marriage.Diana subconsciously rubbed her stomach as her fingers clasped tightly over it.Julian didn’t notice her subtle movement, but Jim did.He charged toward Diana like an arrow shot from a bowstring, his face pale with anxiety as he stared at Diana and asked in panic, “Does your stomach hurt?”He immediately reached out to feel her pulse.Her wrist was tender and fair.Julian’s eyes turned red as he grabbed Jim’s hand. “What are you doing?”Julian had to admit that his feelings toward Jim were complicated. He did feel that Jim wasn’t interested in Diana in that way, not in the romantic sense.The look Jim gave Diana and the way he spoke to her was straightforward and natural. He never attempted to hide anything.But just now, for some reason, Jim displayed extraordinary care and concern toward her . “She rubbed her stomach too hard just now,” Jim explained kindly. “I was just worried that she felt discomfort in her stomach.”Julian look

Diana was stunned into silence.“Why aren’t you responding?” Julian ignored the shock in her eyes and probed further. “Are you unwilling?”Worry began filling his dark eyes.It was as if he had really become a pauper who had to rely on Diana for food and shelter from now on.Her thumbprint was already inked on the document. Even if she refused to sign on the document, Julian had his way to make the letter of transfer of shares come into effect.Diana knew Julian had set his mind on it, and she wouldn’t be able to turn down being the largest shareholder of Fulcher Inc.In that instant, a cheeky smile appeared on her face. “I won’t take care of you.”Julian thought he must have heard Diana wrongly. “What did you say?”He had given her all that he had, but she was now unwilling to take care of him?!“Not that just, but I’ll even throw you out of the house,” Diana said heartlessly. The smile on her face faded as her features hardened like stone. “From now on, you’ll have nothing t

“Diana’s very happy with you,” Jim said with happiness from the bottom of his heart. He showed Julian the photo he took just now. “See?”In the photo, the two of them were like a golden couple. Even the flowers surrounding them bloomed as they embraced each other tightly, making for a beautiful and heartwarming scene.Of course, it was obvious that the one who took the photo was giving the couple his sincerest blessings.The inappropriateness of Jim pursuing Diana all the way here from the zoo was washed away by the message that this photo conveyed.Diana had something else she wanted to discuss with Jim. She exchanged glances with Julian, and he said, “Professor Hughes, stay for lunch?”“No thanks.” Jim rejected them this time. “I have something else to attend to, and need to urgently rush back to Jacroaof. Please excuse me.”With that, he glanced at Diana. His warm yet unexplainable gaze swept across Diana’s face and stomach. “Mrs. Fulcher, I’ll see you again.”He said it in

Was that man truly so clean? Was he just an ordinary and promising pharmacy professor at a university, or had he reached a level where not even Julian could uncover any information about him?Putting those thoughts aside… Based on their few interactions, Julian decided, "In any case, he's not a bad person."Diana smiled, as if she had seen through his tough exterior. She simply wrapped her hand around his neck, and the two of them walked towards the room. She maintained her warm smile, and let up on teasing him. "You clearly already think Jim is a good person, but won't admit it due to your appreciation for him. Julian, why are you so cute and like to get jealous?"Even though she was in her mid-twenties, she seemed to become more youthful as she aged. The way she spoke was almost as cute as Betty. In an instant, Julian's heart softened.A tough man with a tender heart. That was who Julian was at this moment. Facing his wife's gaze, he nodded, effectively agreeing with Diana'

Chapter 1279

Layla was busy setting the table. The Fulcher family had many traditions; they had different tablecloths for every meal, a rule established by the late Madam Fulcher. She believed that anyone who enjoyed their meals was someone who loved life. As an elderly lady, she wanted to be one who loved life.Now, she was gone, but her habits and spirit remained forever.Diana watched Layla bustling around, and suddenly felt her eyes welling up with tears.Julian had followed behind her. Upon seeing her standing still, he understood her emotions instantly. He held her hand again. "Let's not argue anymore, okay? If Grandma finds out, she might want to take me away in her dreams tonight.""...What nonsense are you spouting?"Madam Fulcher wouldn't want to take her beloved eldest grandson away so early."Are you not angry anymore?"Seeing Diana talking to him again, a smug smile graced Julian's lips. Before Diana could react, he swiftly planted a kiss on her cheek.Their affectionate rela

"Why not?" Julian countered. "If you don't sit on your husband's lap, whose lap would you sit on?"Diana didn't want to sit on anyone's lap or participate in shareholder meetings; she simply wanted to return the shares."You have the shares and what Grandma gave you," Julian said sincerely. "With them, you can do whatever you want in Richburgh. Hell, you can even walk into everyone on the streets, and they wouldn't say a thing."He'd be an influential figure among the men, and she'd be one among the women. Diana somehow recalled this line from a TV drama, and couldn't help but laugh."Why would I do that?" she scolded him playfully, her actions making Julian's throat dry. Diana felt that her current body was slightly plumper than before. She was worried about regaining the postpartum weight, which had led to restrictive eating habits."That sounds like such an inconvenient thing to do. It's better to be a decent person."Julian nodded in agreement. "In any case, the shares ar
