Chapter 479
Love wasn't always at first sight, nor was it a matter of fate. It was those plain and simple moments in daily life that
touched the heart and stayed with one forever.
When Julian thought of Diana, the phrase "Love starts from unknown origins and runs deeper” came to mind.
He was no longer worried about when or how he fell in love with Diana, and instead lamented the fact he had lost
the right to love her.
A tinge of melancholy laced his handsome features.
Julian let out a small sigh and set the lightbulb aside.
Without exposing Kayla's hidden motives, he bent down and picked up the screwdriver from the toolbox before
returning to work in silence.
"Done."

"Julian, there's no need to be so polite between us..."
"Yes, there is," Julian said firmly. "I didn’t want to have any contact with you ever again. But you did help Diana with
the information you gave me before."
Julian was emphasizing their relationship while warning Kayla not to overstep her boundaries.
Kayla was uncomfortable hearing it, and clenched her fist tightly.
"Okay..."
No matter her thoughts, she would have to submit to Julian's words for the time being.
"But..." Kayla said, her voice slightly louder. "Julian, I really know that I was wrong..."
Her voice hadn't always been this way. Although it was her own doing, Julian's heart wasn't made of stone. He had
watched her grow up by his side; there were still some lingering feelings toward her, despite them not being love.
However, he still couldn't forgive her; every time he thought about her malicious intentions toward Diana, a wave of
uncontrollable anger rushed just underneath his skin, waiting to burst out at any second.
"Knowing you're wrong is a start," Julian said casually. "Now, it's time to control yourself."
She shouldn't have any inappropriate thoughts toward him, nor should she have any toward Diana either.
At that, Kayla's nails dug deep into the flesh of her palms.
"Okay. You don't have to worry."
Julian noted that she had the same submissive look before she left the country. Perhaps she knew she had done
something wrong; and yet, the trust between them couldn't be salvaged anymore at this point. He knew that any
feelings he had towards her were simply an illusion that could never be regained.
Julian nodded, and immediately informed her that he was leaving. He had seen two women today already; one who
looked like Diana in terms of clothing, and another who looked like her in terms of appearance.
It seemed everyone in this world looked like her, but none were her.
Besides, it wasn't like he had any reason to stay here any longer anyway.

"What the hell? This is the twenty-second floor! We need to go to the twenty-third, you idiot! You pressed the wrong
button!"
It was Nina's voice.
Julian instantly grew alert and subconsciously stepped back, accidentally stepping on Kayla's foot without realizing
it.
He was too busy looking outside.
And he saw...Diana standing in the elevator!
She and Nina seemed to be moving, as they had many bags and boxes with them. Were they moving to the twenty-
third floor? Wasn't it also the same building Kayla lived in?
"What's our room number again?"
"2302."
Julian quickly looked up at Kayla's door, and realized that 2302 was just above them.
He couldn't help but feel excited again.
It seemed the distance between him and Diana had suddenly become closer.
