Chapter 1381

To be accurate, Betty needed her greatly.Sean, on the other hand, had become independent way too early and was now in his own little world.The thought made Diana feel slightly down.Her children had all grown up. She had to keep warning herself to retreat from their lives in a civil manner. That was her first lesson as a parent.They were children she had painstakingly raised since their birth, and she had inevitably grown deeply attached to them.Retreat from their lives…To learn how to constantly retreat and draw further away was truly tough.Diana held back the tears in her eyes as she untied Betty’s hair.Betty’s hair had just been washed this morning, and the sweet scent of her shampoo was still lingering in her hair.Diana couldn’t help but rub her nose at the scent. “Does the shampoo at our house smell so good?”“No.” Betty shook her head. “The shampoo we use at home doesn’t have a scent.”Where did that sweet scent come from, then? Diana could smell the strong

Every room in this hotel came attached with a balcony. There was practically no gap between one balcony to another. In fact, two balconies of two separate hotel rooms shared one single pane of glass. Essentially, one could effortlessly get from one hotel room to another just by jumping across the glass.A woman in white uniform grasped the glass separating Diana’s balcony from the neighboring balcony, and tried jumping a few times. Very swiftly, she leaped like a spring from the balcony to Diana’s.Right after that, someone handed her something. She reached out to take it.Things continued being handed to the woman who jumped into Diana’s balcony, and she continued taking them and putting them on the ground.All of this made quite a ruckus.Diana finally sensed that something was wrong, and she began to panic. She let Betty continue soaking in the tub, and said, “Mommy needs to head out for a while. I’ll come back soon to shower you later.”There was still a lot of foam on Bett

The woman nodded. “It is Professor Hughes.”Noticing that Diana had her guard down and was willing to talk, the maid went on, “The professor instructed us to deliver some things to you, but we didn’t get any response when we knocked on your door. We couldn’t only go by the balcony.”When they knocked, Diana and Betty were immersed in the fun of soaking in the tub.Not only were the sounds blocked out by the room door and walls, but they were also blocked out by the glass door in the washroom.What’s more, Betty loved chatting and singing in the bath. It was completely understandable that Diana did not manage to hear the knocks on the door.Diana began walking closer to them. “Deliver some things?” She trusted Jim very much. She genuinely saw him as a friend. Upon realizing they were his subordinates, she relaxed. “What things? Why is Jim staying next door to me?”The woman quickly replied, “Professor said that booking both rooms on the left and right of your room and prevent ra

The ladies found Diana incredibly beautiful.No wonder their professor was spending so much effort on a pregnant woman!“Over the years, the professor has never given anyone food he made himself,” the woman said, trying their best to portray Jim in the best light possible. “There are herbs in them, so the taste is extra special.“They taste good, and are good for your health. Whenever you get hungry at night, feel free to take them to fill your stomach.”No wonder Diana felt like the buns smelled special. Even the strong stench of the durians couldn’t mask that special scent.“Okay,” Diana said with a smile. She turned her attention to a huge gift box on the floor. “What is that?”“Birds' nests and bedsheets.”The maids nodded at Diana as they spoke. With Diana’s permission, they entered the room to move everything slowly.“These things are heavy. Please don’t touch them.”They rolled up their sleeves and grabbed brushes and disinfectant liquid. One of them handed Diana a room

Only in the Hughes residence, no matter what happened to them after taking any pill—be it death—their family members would have no way of seeking compensation from the Hughes family, even if they pursued a lawsuit.“Wait!” Diana yelled.Seeing their clothes, Diana had a thought. Very soon, she caught up with the maid whom she spoke with just now.The maid’s back tensed up ever so slightly. She turned, around and asked, “What’s the matter, Ms. Winnington?”“Your clothes.” Diana pointed at their uniform. “Does everyone working at the Hughes household have to wear the same white uniform? Even the men?”This time, the lady didn’t reply to Diana’s question.Diana explained, “I’m in the fashion design industry. I think the fabric used in your uniform is of great quality.”She didn’t even need a closer look to feel the fabric’s smooth and silky texture. The detailed embroidery on the uniform made it look very expensive. Jim had used it in his uniforms.The maid said, “Both men and w

Julian was busy.So much so, he didn’t even have the time to check his phone.The earlier he resolved the crisis that Fulcher Inc. was facing, the earlier he could get to Jacroaof and look for Diana and Betty.He threw himself into working on Fulcher Inc.’s back-end financial system, tirelessly keeping an eagle eye on his technicians as they worked.“This hacker is very cunning,” the technician said. It wasn’t easy fulfilling the task this time round. “We’ve never seen a destruction program in these settings, and it looks just like a children’s game. It looks very simple—childish, even—but when we actually tried to decode it, we realized there was nothing childish about it. Little children have nothing to do with this level of difficulty.”The technician’s words erased Julian’s doubts regarding Sean. His son couldn’t possibly have done something so wicked to Fulcher Inc.For all he knew, Sean was probably sound asleep right now, recovering from the fatigue of his training.I

Lucas heard that before, Sean couldn’t even lift a bow and arrow.Sean even issued Leonard a challenge, wanting to compete against him, but when the time of the match came, Leonard didn’t appear. He didn’t even want to fight against this pipsqueak.With that thought in mind, Lucas was more forgiving toward Sean. He even gave Sean a set of new clothes to change into. “One week later, I’ll let you out of this room.”During this period… “You don’t need to interfere with Julian Fulcher’s affairs from here on.”Lucas handed Sean a set of documents.“Make it so that these two rooms in this hotel can only be unlocked on our end one week—no, three days later.”Lucas thought through it. Nowhere was safe and private enough. He’d rather let Diana remain in that hotel all the way.Anyway, he heard that the servants at home helped tidy up her room till it was spick and span. Jim even booked the neighboring rooms, which meant that Diana had a lot of space to move about.Over the coming

No wonder people said that unfaithfulness and violence in a marriage were both completely unacceptable. If it could happen once, it could happen twice.Over these two days, Sean made use of the internet to search through all the information he could find about the past between Julian and Kayla Winnington. Although Julian wasn’t exactly considered unfaithful at that time, Sean could tell that Julian had considered being unfaithful. He simply stopped himself before he made a big mistake.Even so, the hurt that he caused Mommy was real.Mommy gave him a chance, which was why he and Betty came about. And now, Mommy was pregnant with two more babies.But now, Daddy wasn’t cherishing her as he should!The thought of Julian’s disappointing actions infuriated Sean. “Probably!”Aside from being bewitched and blinded by another woman, what other reason could Julian possibly have for not rushing to Jacroaof the moment he had the chance to?Why did he have to make Mommy and Betty wait her

That was impossible.Getting Noel to quit being Julian’s assistant was worse than making him fall out of love. It was almost akin to murder. That would really make Noel lose all aim in life.“Fine, I’ll go,” Noel said. All he needed to do when he was there was to politely reject the lady. Not turning up for the blind date would indeed disappoint Diana.Diana was so kind to him, so Noel couldn’t bear to make Diana appear dishonest.However, he didn’t get changed. By the time Julian realized what happened, Noel was already on his way.Julian decided not to pursue the matter.Anyway, Noel’s blind date wouldn’t be able to see him.To help Noel choose a better partner this time, the blind date Diana prepared involved a thick layer of curtain in between the parties.

The café by the road had recently become a very popular café in Richburgh.The special thing about it was that it was by the road. In fact, it wasn’t really by the road. There was actually a road stretching around it.The owner of this shop was a holdout. When the government tore down the buildings in this area, he decided to build a road around the shop. That resulted in a very interesting sight. Either way, it was clear to the original owners of the property that they could no longer live there. The only thing they could do was to rent out the property.Over the years, they had many tenants. However, the most successful one that became famous was this cafe.Wealthy socialites, white-collared workers in the city, students, and even tourists from all over the world, would come to visit this café.
