Chapter 1516
Diana was rather worried. "Where did she go?"
Julian tried to calm her down. "I think I know."
Diana glanced at him, anxious. "Do tell!"
Diana was clearly very worried for Kate, given how anxious she was.
Julian hemmed and hawed, deliberately teasing her. "Tell you? Tell you what?"
He seized the chance while Kate and Betty weren't around to lean in close to Diana.

breathed hot air into her face.
"Hmm? Tell me, what do you want me to say?"
They hadn't been this intimate for a long while.
They had been fighting before Diana came to Jacroaof.
After witnessing Jim and Simon’s death, they weren’t in the mood to catch up with and whisper sweet nothings to
each other.
It was only until this moment that Julian could no longer hold back his desires for Diana. He missed her badly. He
really wanted to draw close to her.
But because of Simon, he didn’t dare to tell her that directly.
He was worried that Diana might feel guilty and push him away.
In fact, after seeing Diana, he didn't dare to look her in the eye. He had to muster up the courage to draw close to
her. Somehow, he kept feeling like a sinner.
"Julian," Diana said, sensing the hesitation in his eyes.
This man was always so firm and determined. "What's the matter?"
She reached out, and hugged him.
Just like before, whenever Julian felt down, she would patiently pat him on his back.
She could sense the sorrow and trepidation in his eyes. She swallowed past her constricted throat and said the

She slowly tightened the hug, and said, "You must be very sad...about Simon’s death."
He was Julian's younger brother. Although Julian had never acknowledged him as part of the family, blood ties were
forever.
Before, when Julian allowed Simon to celebrate the new year with them at Fulcher Manor, she could tell that Julian
didn't detest Simon that much.
And this time...
If it weren't for Simon, none of them would have made it out alive.
Even if Diana could be brought out, it would be under the name of research. She would probably have to suffer
much pain during childbirth.
