Chapter 1246
Julian nodded. "Things like horse riding, guns, and some self -defense and offensive tactics will be taught. They will
also undergo physical and intellectual training."
It was very physically and intellectually demanding of the children.
"No way, no way!" Diana cried.
Her heart thumped harder the more she found out about the squad. She even felt her stomach churning. She
caressed her tummy, trying to comfort her babies, as she looked up at Julian.
"I can’t let Sean join this."
She took a deep breath, held her stomach, and marched out.
Julian wanted to say further, but seeing her walking unsteadily because of her pregnant stomach made him swallow
his words.
Diana had painstakingly given birth and taken care of the children.

children when it was time to, nothing could compare to the actual sacrifice mothers made.
He decided it was better for Diana to make the decision on this matter. Whatever it was, he would support her.
The two of them left the room in quick succession. They saw Sean in the same spot, seated formally on the couch.
Betty, on the other hand, was scrunched up into a ball on the couch, hugging her legs and occasionally asking to be
fed some fruits; she was clearly enjoying herself.
Every child was different indeed.
Diana felt that deeply as she stared at her two vastly different twins.
"Let's eat first," Diana said, deliberately ignoring Sean's expectant expression and avoiding the topic of the training
squad.
Her attitude clearly spoke of her rejection.
Sean was inevitably disappointed, and wasn’t in the mood to eat. Even though the kitchen prepared his usual
favorites, he only took two nibbles without much interest. He looked vulnerable and pitiful.
Diana had never seen him like this before, disinterested in everything around him. Seeing her son behaving like this
made her anxious.
However, she stubbornly insisted that she wasn’t wrong.
"Sean, you’re still too young. After you turn six, which is the average age of the members in the training squad, I'll
send you there."
"Why must I wait till I reach the average age?" Sean refuted, feeling like Diana’s words were like a ray of hope in
the dark
night sky.
He was quick-witted, and could sense it immediately.
"Mommy, you asked about the training squad. Who did you ask? Mr. Channing?"
Diana didn't expect Sean to even know that Oliver was the person-in-charge. He even remembered who Oliver was.
Betty looked up, confused. "Mr. Channing? Who's Mr. Channing?"
Why did she have no impression of him at all...?

That was how an ordinary child's memory worked. They would easily forget things that happened before they
turned three. In fact, Betty had once cried for three whole days and nights because of a friend who transferred to
another kindergarten.
She kept crying, insisting that she couldn’t be without that friend of hers. She even wanted Diana and Julian to drive
to her friend’s house to tell said friend how upset she was.
However, her friend’s family had already undergone immigration procedures. How could they give up on their
immigration plans just because of a little girl's cries?
Betty ended up feeling hurt and dismayed. All she could say was, "Mommy, my best friend’s gone..."
Diana looked at her daughter, finding it heartbreaking and hilarious at the same time.
Thankfully, the family wasn't able to see what Betty looked like. Otherwise, they might mistakenly think that their
daughter had died instead of leaving the country.
'Your friend's just leaving the country. She'll come back again next time, and you two can meet up and play
together. If not, after Mommy gives birth, Daddy and I can also bring you overseas to meet her."
Betty blinked back the tears in her eyes, and nodded. That was when she finally started eating her food.
Less than a week later, Betty began having fun and enjoying herself at school again. Diana asked her whether she
missed her best friend.
