Chapter 1508
The atmosphere in the room turned awkward.
Diana concentrated on leaning into Jim’s ear, pretending as though no one was around.
From Julian's angle, it looked as if they were kissing.
However, Diana didn't really kiss Jim. She simply wanted to provoke Julian and make him leave.
She didn’t expect Jim to suddenly hold her down when she was about to stand up.
Diana was caught in his hold, unable to leave his embrace. This time, desire filled his eyes. His eyes clearly spoke of
his desire to possess Diana.
His lips drew close.

Diana instinctively shrank back, but she was trapped within his arms.
He whispered into her ear, 'Trying to run? You started this first."
If she dared to leave him, he would never let Betty go!
Betty was still with his men. Diana didn't dare to act rashly. She didn't expect her plan to backfire.
"I thought you didn't like me?” she asked.
Locked in his embrace, she felt overwhelming panic and discomfort. She wanted to take a step back, but he kept
her trapped in his arms. Helpless, she could only ask.
"Yes," Jim said, "I didn't, and I still don’t."
He thought that he simply liked her being close to him. His had heart trembled when she leaned in toward his lips
just now.
"Diana." He looked at her, and couldn't help but caress her stomach with his fingers. 'You must give birth to your
babies."
He was beginning to dislike the idea of Diana living together with Julian’s children.
"I will let my mother provide you with the best post-surgery care, but both babies must remain with the Hughes
family. Don't worry, my mother will raise your children for you."
Raise her children? Did he mean in the same way they treated Kate?
They were clearly good friends who trusted each other. Yet, the Hughes had the heart to destroy Kate's life in the
name of scientific research.
What irony!

"Diana, you’re resisting me so much. Do you want to see
both Julian and Betty dead? I'll push you out and leave you behind for my mother, but I won't spare them.
Cooperate with me before I change my mind and make Julian take Betty away. That will ensure both of their safety."
Diana's heart trembled at Jim’s words.
She knew that a person like Jim was capable of anything. His mindset was different from that of ordinary people.
From her angle, she could clearly see the green numbers that kept counting down right in front of him. That was
the timer for the explosives.
There were five minutes left on the clock.
If things were to go on like this...
Diana didn't dare to think about it. She immediately became much more agreeable to Jim. Despite that, she dodged
Jim's kiss when he leaned in toward her lips.
