Chapter 529
It also sounded more like a command, as everything Julian said did.
In the past, when she loved him, hearing him speak this way sounded wonderfully sweet.
But now...
Having seen through his true intentions and desires, she only felt a deep sense of repulsion from the bottom of her
heart.
"Sure."
After her firm answer, Julian belatedly realized...
Was Diana’s intention to reconcile with him genuine? Was that why she left the note back in the hospital?
Otherwise, why didn't she argue back when he spoke with such a forceful tone?
Instead, she smiled and went along with him.
Before, he would’ve noticed the displeasure in her eyes. But now, Julian was too intoxicated by joy.
He only considered seizing the opportunity where he could as he said," Diana, can I see you more often from now
on, just like before?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Okay," Diana replied with a nod. ’It's not like I'm angry with you anymore."
Julian was once again pleasantly surprised. He jumped up from his seat so quickly that he might as well have been
flying.
He almost stumbled on his long legs due to the lack of space. Before Diana could react, he had already picked her
up in his arms.
As he raised her up slightly in the air by her waist, her skirt swayed and bobbed along the movement. The layers
looked like blooming ripples, creating the most beautiful scene Julian's eyes had ever witnessed.
The more he looked at her, the more beautiful she seemed.
Julian let himself sink into the blissful mood, and he desperately wished he could pull her tightly into his embrace.
He wanted to talk about the longing and frustrations he had experienced in the past few days.
Yet, for now, simply having her permission to meet and hold her like this made him content.
He couldn't be too greedy.
He thought for a while and asked, "Can I come to see you tomorrow?"
He held her slender waist and gently placed her on her desk, then took out the clothes he had just bought. "Wear
this tomorrow."
It was white.
And it was a dress.
Even after all this time, Julian's taste still remained the same.
It seemed after Kayla had been disfigured, he had become even more determined to mold Diana into the perfect
substitute-thoroughly and completely.
The momentary pleasure of being lifted up by him faded, and Diana's gaze dimmed.
She took the clothes from his hand and said, "Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow."
Julian thought he had misheard.
"You won't change your mind?"
His eyes were wide, and there was no trace of the usual coldness on his face. Only a look of astonishment was
present.
Diana wasn't accustomed to such an open expression on his face, so she averted her eyes from him slightly.
"Yes."
If she wanted to snatch away everything Kayla cared about, she needed to obtain Julian. If giving him false
promises would help her cause, she would do it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJulian was elated, completely unaware of Diana's current thoughts. He was so ecstatic, he almost bumped into the
glass door on his way out.
It wasn't until Diana let out a soft laugh that he turned around and glanced at her as if waking up from a dream.
There was still a smile on his lips, one that gave him the impression of a noble deity descending into the mortal
world. There was a touch of aloofness and extraordinary air around him that didn't blend with the mundane; it
made Diana momentarily forget that this man was indeed known as a god in Richburgh.
As long as he was in Richburgh, its economic lifeline would survive.
And yet, only the image of his silly smile remained in her mind.
Only after Julian had walked far away did she realize she was also smiling foolishly. The pen in her hand abruptly
stopped, leaving a deep black ink mark on a blank sheet of paper.
"Don't be moved, Diana," she told herself sternly.
She stared at the paper, gritting her teeth as she continued to remind herself. 'Before, he treated you as a
substitute and didn't care about your babies. Now, you're willingly becoming Kayla's substitute.’’
Don't be moved!
Otherwise, she would end up even more miserable in front of Julian and Kayla!
