Chapter 831

The apartment Simon previously found had withdrawn the lease offer, so Diana told Oliver, “I’ll stay in this hotel for a couple of days until I find another apartment.”Ideally, it would be in the suburbs with a good environment.“Coincidentally, I have a vacant bungalow,” Oliver suggested when he heard about Betty’s current condition. “It’s located in the suburbs. There’s a river outside, with mountains at the back and beautiful scenery all around. There are also many children in the neighborhood, which would be great for Betty and Sean to make new friends. If you want, you can bring the twins there.”“No need,” Diana said. She instinctively didn’t want to have too much to do with Oliver.Not just because of her instincts, but also because of his forceful approach that restricted her movements by force.He was fast, accurate, and vicious—completely unlike his warm and gentle appearance.“I’ll give you the key and the address. It’s up to you whether you want to go.”Before Diana

In a restaurant opposite the studio, a woman asked, “Mr. Fulcher, what are you looking at?”She was seated opposite Julian, wiping her mouth with a napkin and looking in the direction of Julian’s gaze. However, she didn’t notice anything.“Nothing. Just a kite trapped in a gunny sack.”“A kite trapped in a gunny sack?”Julian nodded, but didn’t explain further. He retracted his gaze from Diana and covered up the worry in his eyes. “Are you done?”The woman seated before him was Cecilia Jarvis, the heiress of the Jarvis family in Richburgh. Julian had selected her from a list of women Vans had shortlisted for a blind date with.Cecilia blushed when Julian looked at her. “Yes, I am.”He nodded, and looked at the lipstick mark on the napkin she used to wipe her mouth.She didn’t reapply her lipstick after her meal, and it made her look rather haggard.Julian stood up swiftly. “Let’s go.”Cecilia was stunned. “Where to?”“To the shopping mall opposite. I’ll buy a new lipstick fo

Cecilia didn’t want the money to go to waste.“Let’s go to the studio over there,” she suggested, wanting to regain her dignity as the heiress of the Jarvis family. “Coincidentally, I need a dress. I heard that the owner of that studio is an excellent tailor and makes great designs. It’s a pity her shop was closed for three years. Now that she’s finally back, business has been booming for her.”She had wanted to come and check it out, but didn’t have the chance to.Custom-made dresses weren’t cheap.Now, she had a chance to let Julian take a look. It wasn’t that she couldn’t bear to part with the money, or that she was petty. She simply wanted to spend money on things that she really needed.That was the rational way of spending money.Julian hesitated for a moment.However, Cecilia had gathered the courage to hold his arm and pull him toward Diana’s studio.Although it was a working day, there were many people inside.Diana was surrounded by people, and she was busy introduci

“Mr. Fulcher,” Sean said, looking up at Julian. “Are you my daddy?”His innocent question pulled at Julian’s heartstrings.He wasn’t.The results were out.He had nothing to do with the twins.Diana was dumbfounded by what had happened.She immediately hugged Sean. “Sean! What nonsense are you spouting?”She chided him harshly.Sean pouted indignantly and said, “Mommy, I’m just…”“Just what?” Diana felt so awkward she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it. She had no idea how to face Julian and the woman he brought here.She could only scold Sean loudly in a bid to dispel her awkwardness. “Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Fulcher!”With that, she turned to Cecilia and said apologetically, “Ms. Jarvis, I’m so sorry. My son was being silly. Please don’t mind him.”But Cecilia was no fool.She could already tell that there was something between Julian and Diana.Now that she heard the boy calling Julian “Daddy”, all the more she couldn’t pretend that nothing had happened.

Before she could make it upstairs, she saw Simon coming through the door.Diana had called him here.She didn’t expect Julian to be here today as well.Sean, who had just been scolded by Diana, was happy to see someone he knew. What’s more, he was very familiar with Simon. He immediately ran toward the latter.Simon instantly carried Sean in his arms, in a way that was natural and clearly well-versed.Ever since he confessed his feelings for Diana, he hadn’t met her for close to one month.This time, it was Diana who contacted him and told him about the many things that had happened in the month.More importantly, Diana had reopened her studio and even met Oliver.When Simon first heard the news, he was anxious and panicky.So much so, he rushed to the studio without a second thought.Seeing Julian there as well, his eyes turned dark and stormy.When Simon noticed Cecilia standing next to Julian, their arms linked, he guessed that Julian and Diana had yet to reconcile. Both

Right now, Sean was certain that Julian was the best candidate to be his and Betty’s father.The most important factor was that he was once married to Mommy. He checked it out—people who got married had babies together. Were he and Betty babies they had after they got married?Also…Julian was tall and strong.He could protect them perfectly.Compared to Simon, who had been very much missing in action recently, Julian gave Sean a much stronger sense of security.But he didn’t understand adults’ affairs, so he couldn’t figure out what they were thinking.In the end, he was but a child.At most, a child who was slightly smarter than other children.With a goal in mind, he would do everything he could to achieve it.Right now, he had to work hard and correct his past mistake of switching out the test samples in order to confirm if he was Julian’s child.Having decided his next course of action, Sean glanced at Betty, who was fast asleep, and gently pulled the door open.He

Julian and the rest probably wouldn’t even know of her whereabouts had she not suddenly returned to Richburgh for the sake of her twins’ schooling arrangements.Julian was all-powerful.He couldn’t possibly not receive any news about her, unless someone was deliberately clamping down on the news.What role did Simon play in hiding her whereabouts?Diana had no idea.That was why she needed an answer from Simon.Diana’s question made Simon’s rapidly beating heart return to normal.The hypnotizer responsible for Diana’s memory loss did not lie to him.As long as Diana didn’t get hypnotized by him again, Diana would never be able to restore her memories.No matter how strong the natural or man-made stimulus was, it was useless.Diana was asking him that only because she had come into contact with more people upon returning to Richburgh. Apparently, she managed to piece together some pieces of the puzzle of her past from their words.Otherwise, she couldn’t possibly be asking hi

“Not romantically as a woman to a man, but as a friend I appreciate and as family who depend on each other.”In fact, before he came clean about the fact that he liked women, she had treated him as she would a sister.The expectant look in Simon’s eyes vanished completely.“Your feelings for me…” she continued, turning away and pretending not to see how hurt he looked.Her fingernails dug into the flesh of her palm as she tried her best to remain firm and not be soft-hearted toward Simon.“They have nothing to do with whether you deliberately hid the truth from me or lied to me. You were wrong,” she concluded. Had he told her that she was once married to Julian, she would have made preparations long ago.She wouldn’t have let Betty follow Simon back to Richburgh earlier.All the more she wouldn't abruptly visit Julian at his place.She even told Julian that she was going to get married to Simon, for crying out loud!On top of it, she brought gifts to him and assumed the posi

She couldn’t possibly betray Julian.In fact, even now, despite being deeply hypnotized, she began having feelings for Julian the moment she laid eyes on him. He could tell from the uneasy and guilty look in her eyes each time she mentioned Julian.An unwillingness to admit defeat sprang in Simon’s heart, drowning him and his rationale like tidal waves.***Downstairs in the studio, Sean was still waiting for Julian’s answer. Ever since the incident with Zachary, Sean wasn’t as confident as he used to be. On the surface, he still retained his cool kid aura.He was small, but he had loved ones he wanted to protect.For the sake of Mommy and Betty, he was willing to be rebuked by Julian.Yet this man, who was a lot taller than him, didn’t look displeased with him.He even crouched down low and caressed Sean’s head tenderly.He looked at him with a sympathetic gaze and asked, “Sean, where’s your mommy?”At that moment, Cecilia could feel a shift in the aura Julian was exud

Even after that, Julian wasn’t any gentler.He pulled Diana harder, as if he were hauling something heavy. He was so violent, Diana’s wrists turned red.The redness was like a special mark that burned a hole in Diana’s heart. That feeling of being treated so coldly by him…Was terrible.She looked at Julian in a daze, as if they had returned to the beginning, when she had just arrived at Richburgh from Stirling City. At that time, Julian was still a complete stranger to her.Bam!Diana was pulled into Julian’s embrace so swiftly, he didn’t give Simon a chance to react. He immediately pulled and dragged her into an empty dressing room.The space was suffocatingly small.He glared at her, his eyes burning with cold fury.“Is Simon not enough? Do you need Oliver around to help you reopen your shop too?” He smirked sardonically, his words pinning her down. She had no room for escape.And so, she was forced to look into his eyes. “But you ended up getting harassed by Zachary.
