Chapter 423
After Oliver mentioned this, Diana also sensed that something was wrong.
"Yes/ she replied as she finished disinfecting his wound. She added seriously, "You were dressed in somewhat formal
attire and sitting in a car when you gave me the sweet potatoes/
At that time, cars were rarely seen in the countryside.
Even though Diana didn't have a deep impression of Oliver when they were children, she could vividly remember
the black car.
"The boy I saved was also dressed quite well/ Diana continued.
She had a keen sense when it came to fabrics since she was a child, and the delicate feel of the material still
remained in her memory.
"So... Do you know who it was?" Diana couldn't help but ask, since Oliver kept bringing up this topic.

family like me/
"Why would you think that?"
"Back then, it wasn't by chance that we were in the countryside. Master Fulcher had been the one to propose a
group activity for the heirs. Those who could participate were either from wealthy or noble families," Oliver
explained. "I’ve always felt that the boy you saved could’ve been one of the heirs, but I'm unsure which family he
came from.’
Diana nodded. "Actually, it doesn't really matter who it was. It's something that happened so long ago. I only
thought it was quite amazing since you mentioned it."
She hadn't expected to have crossed paths with Oliver when they were children.
"Aren't you curious if the boy you saved survived?"
Diana pondered for a moment before agreeing. "Well, I am a little curious..."
Still, it wasn't something she was fixated on.
"It's fine," Oliver said, seemingly grateful that he had finally found something he could do for her. "I'll find out for
you/
Diana was stunned. "That’s okay. You're already so busy every day. It's not worth hanging onto something so small.
Besides, the boy left the cave on his own, so he must’ve been alive and well enough to do so.*
"If he was well enough to leave, that meant he was conscious, right?" Oliver asked. "Then, why didn't he stay to
thank you?"
"I don't know..." Diana said. "Perhaps he was in a hurry to leave.’
Deep inside, she did think that the boy had been a little ungrateful.
"I'll look into it and find out who the boy was," Oliver said with an eager glint in his eyes. "I'll contact you if I find
anything."
Diana finally understood. Oliver's interest in investigating the identity of the boy she saved was a secondary goal.

But... What had she done to deserve such attention?
Diana studied Oliver's radiant eyes. She sighed uncomfortably when his wounds caught her eyes again, and
swallowed the words of refusal on her tongue.
Just as Oliver had said, she could refuse him once his wounds were healed.
But before that could happen, Diana's studio faced a crisis.
Although her studio was small, it was still located in the heart of the CBD.
As such, the renovation and venue cost a lot of money.
She stocked up on a lot of high-grade fabrics at the start of the business in order to please her customers after her
studio's opening, which took up even more money.
The that Fanny gave her at the beginning wasn't enough, so she transferred more later.
By the time Diana's business officially opened, very little money was left.
Recently, however, not only did the landlord tripled the rent, but the stockpiled fabric had also become moldy due
to the weather.
The rent increase was absurd. Forget the dry weather in the north, it was even more outrageous for the fabric to
grow mold in such a short time!
