Chapter 421

After Julian returned home, he flew into a rage and smashed almost all the vases, antiques, and any other visible cutlery in the villa. Every item around the villa… had traces of Diana in them.They were filled with memories of their time together.Noel stood at the side, listening to the crashing of glassware. He wanted to say something to stop Julian, but he didn't know where to start. He could only watch as Julian continued to smash everything in sight, at the same time anxiously calculating all the prices in his mind.In the end, the price reached an amount that made him want to shed bitter tears.When Julian raised the last plate in sight, Noel couldn't take it anymore and exclaimed, "Sir! That's Madam’s favorite china from her jade collection! It was the first gift you bought at an auction for her! You…"Noel wasn’t able to finish his sentence, as Julian's emotions visibly stabilized. Her favorite... Diana's favorite...He used to be her favorite too. Yet now, she had f

Chapter 422

Noel couldn't bear to see such a despondent side to Julian, so he slowly retreated out of the room after he had called for his staff to clean up the mess.However, he was also deeply worried.While he had done many things for Julian over the years, he had never done any matchmaking before...But if that was what Julian had ordered him to do, he was willing to study it and be the best. In the end, he came up with a plan that, although crude, was probably the most effective and efficient way."Sir..." To be on the safe side, Noel decided to give Julian a chance to back out by explaining the entire plan to him. After briefly going over it, Noel asked, "Do you think this is feasible, sir?"Julian felt a little uneasy, but upon thinking about how Diana had panicked over Oliver's injuries, was willing to wear a red dress for him and even wore his coat, he still nodded in agreement for Noel to proceed with the plan; albeit quite reluctantly. "Go ahead."As long as the result would s

Chapter 423

After Oliver mentioned this, Diana also sensed that something was wrong."Yes," she replied as she finished disinfecting his wound. She added seriously, "You were dressed in somewhat formal attire and sitting in a car when you gave me the sweet potatoes."At that time, cars were rarely seen in the countryside.Even though Diana didn't have a deep impression of Oliver when they were children, she could vividly remember the black car."The boy I saved was also dressed quite well," Diana continued. She had a keen sense when it came to fabrics since she was a child, and the delicate feel of the material still remained in her memory."So... Do you know who it was?" Diana couldn't help but ask since Oliver kept bringing up this topic."No," Oliver replied with a smile. "But I can guess that he should also be from Richburgh, and comes from a wealthy family like me.""Why would you think that?""Back then, it wasn't by chance that we were in the countryside. Master Fulcher had been t

Chapter 424

Unfortunately, Diana didn't have time to investigate the obvious foul play in this odd situation. Customer orders had been placed, and she had to ensure that the clothes were shipped out as scheduled to maintain the integrity of her business.In recent days, Diana grew increasingly busy.On one hand, she contacted the landlord to inquire if the rent could be reduced. On the other hand, she contacted her fabric supplier to find a substitute for the moldy fabric. Apart from that, she was also hard at work raising funds. She didn't want to ask Fanny for further help or let Oliver know about her problems; she wanted to avoid the increasing amount of favors she owed them.However, it wasn't easy to handle all three problems simultaneously. "Ms. Winnington," the landlord said as he stood before her with raised brows. "If you can't agree to the rent increase, I'm willing to compensate you the entire amount for the penalty of the breach of contract. You just need to move out in a week."

"Understood?"Noel nodded. "I got it, sir.""As for the person behind the landlord..." Julian glanced up at Noel with a sharp gaze. "Look into it too. Find out why he suddenly came out to make trouble."The location of Diana's studio was good, but the sudden increase in rent which was obviously way beyond market price was too sudden. There had to be someone pulling the strings behind the scene.Noel noted Julian's instructions and said, "By the way, sir. Recently, Ms. Kayla has been asking to see you..."Julian immediately recalled Kayla putting on makeup that made her appear similar to Diana, and snapped, "No."Now that he had already decided to stay away, it was better to let Kayla to give up completely, lest she try to turn the tables on Diana and attempt something ridiculous again.-The fabric prices kept going up, and the losses Diana suffered in the warehouse only kept increasing.She had been searching for new investors to make up for the shortfall and quickly get new

Chapter 426

When Noel told Julian what happened, Julian grew furious."Why the hell did you bring up my name to help her? Who told you to say we needed to help her openly?!"Noel knew he had done it wrongly. "Then, you don't want Madam to know it was you...?""Obviously!" Julian couldn't help but roll his eyes. "You're not usually such a blockhead. Why are you so stupid when it comes to matters like this?"Julian was seething with rage. "Now, Diana might think I'm making fun of her!""You're right," Noel admitted sincerely. "Madam did say that...""...Noel," Julian hissed through gritted teeth, a bitter feeling behind his throat. "You're really something else."Noel finally realized that he had completely screwed up, and went pale. "S-So... What should we do now to help her?"Julian was also out of ideas. He was afraid that if he did anything wrong, it would only lead to Diana becoming increasingly disgusted with him."Forget it," Julian said after thinking for a while. "I'll contact he

The receptionist flushed and subconsciously lowered her head. "H-How can I help you, sir?"Julian's face remained blank, but the indifference in his eyes increased. He retreated a little, putting more distance between the two as he said, "I'm looking for someone.""I'm sorry, sir, but I can't help you. We're unable to reveal the whereabouts of any guests who come in. If it's your friend, perhaps you could call that person and ask personally instead."If Diana had answered his call, Julian wouldn't have had to chase her all the way here now, would he?Annoyance flashed in his eyes, and he snapped, "Where's your manager? Ask him to come to see me."Seeing how confident and well-dressed Julian was, the receptionist didn't dare to delay it and immediately called her manager.Soon, Julian was invited to the hallway where Diana's private room was located."You don't have to follow me," Julian said to the manager and the group of people behind him. He held up a hand to stop them in

Chapter 428

Marvin leaned his fat body against the door."Miss Winnington. If you go out now, it'll be an insult to me," he said bluntly. His gaze felt like repulsive leeches crawling all over Diana, and it made her deeply uncomfortable. She shifted slightly and forced a smile as she said, "Mr. Trotter, I really need to use the restroom."Marvin had taken the chance to touch her hand when he pressed the teacup into her hand just now, and it made Diana's skin itch with the urge to clean it immediately. Yet, the man refused to let her leave."I'll be upfront with you, Diana," Marvin said with narrowed eyes. "I'm willing to invest in your studio, but I'll never invest in people who don't matter. If you want money from me, you'll have to perform well."After saying that, Marvin pulled out a room card and placed it on the table. The meaning behind his words couldn't be any more obvious.But Diana clearly underestimated how nasty the man could get as he added, "As long as you go, I'll always ha

Chapter 429

Diana didn't want to involve her past, and she was even less willing to do anything in the name of D&J. Alas, there was nothing else she could think of.She couldn't contact any good investors, and those she could were trash like Marvin. If she continued to deal with people like him, forget losing her money; she would also endanger herself in the process.After considering all her options, it seemed talking to Mr. Crawford was the only way to go.But… What was she to say to him? She still needed time to consider it properly.After Diana finally calmed down, she flung the room card into the trash before leaving the private room and heading straight for the restroom.When she exited the restroom, she only took a couple of steps into the lobby before the receptionist called out to her. "Ms. Winnington?"Diana froze and turned to look at her. "Yes?"The girl rushed forward and placed a bottle of disinfectant in her hand."You've been asked to disinfect before you leave."Diana was

Chapter 430

Sadly, Julian didn't see her at all.Diana had hidden behind a wall, carefully and clearly memorizing Julian's smile.Was it that great to be with Kayla?That nasty man who kept insisting she needed to be disinfected, had turned into a gentle and indulgent man with a bright smile on his lips.In his heart...Had he ever thought about her and their babies at all whenever he was with Kayla?Diana felt a terrible pang shoot through her heart; she grew even more determined to secure an investment for her studio and get through this challenging period.She had to...She had to have the power to compete with Julian, crush Kayla, and make that witch kneel at the grave of her babies and apologize!Diana walked away with her heels clicking as she did, leaving only cold indifference in her eyes.Julian, on the other hand, hadn't noticed Diana. His smile vanished when he turned to see Kayla.His face turned cold, with an indescribably frightening chill radiating from him.Kayla couldn
