Chapter 1102
"Time flies," Diana said. She raised her glass, and sincerely toasted Nina. "Thank you, Nina, for your unwavering
belief in me since I returned."
Nina had always supported Diana's decisions. This included when Zachary came to visit them before. Nina was the
one who protected Diana and the twins.
Nina was touched by Diana's sincere tone, and her eyes became a little moist. "What's with all this all of a sudden?
If you had been willing to discuss it with me three years ago, I would never have let you go on that journey alone.
Especially since you were pregnant."
At the very least, Nina would have gone with Diana.
"Although Simon was despicable, thank god he never harmed the twins."
Luckily, Diana had raised them safely to this point.

Diana couldn't bear to think how the twins would have ended up if Simon had been even more ruthless back then.
Fortunately, everything was in the past now.
Nina finished her drink, and gently squeezed Diana's hand for comfort. As the conversation continued, Nina became
happier and even opened a bottle of wine.
Diana had a low tolerance for alcohol, and only took a small sip. Nina, on the other hand, drank quite a bit.
"Congratulations, Diana, on having your own house in the vast city of Richburgh," Nina said. "From now on, you'll
have your own sanctuary. No one can drive you away. You'll never have to move again, only return home."
Nina was genuinely happy for Diana.
They ate and chatted until it was time for the two kids to bathe.
Nina was already a bit too drunk to stand up, so the kids had to help Diana assist Nina to her room before they
could take their baths.
But Nina wouldn't allow it. "No!"
She waved her hand at Diana, refusing to let the kids touch her. She held her clothes up to her nose, and pretended
to dry heave.
"Auntie is stinky," she said, keeping herself away from the kids and pushing herself away from the table. "Don't
touch me, don't touch me."
With that, she pushed herself against the table and struggled to get up. "I'll go brush my teeth first."
She was afraid the smell of alcohol would affect the kids. She also made sure to tell Diana, "Wait for me!"
Nina wanted to help Diana bathe the kids.
Of course, Diana wouldn't allow Nina to do so; she was already too drunk. If she bumped into something or fell,
there were no other adults in the house to assist her.
Unfortunately, Nina refused to listen. She was determined to bathe the kids with Diana. Diana had no choice but to
send Sean to knock on the neighbor's door, to ask for Vans to come and take care of Nina.

"Why is there such a strong smell of alcohol?" Vans asked. He heard Nina vomiting profusely in the bathroom, then
noticed the empty wine bottles on the table. He turned to Diana. "Did you two have a bit to drink?"
It was more than just a bit.
Diana was embarrassed. "It was a celebration, since it's a happy occasion today. I bought a house."
She had said it to keep Vans from being upset with Nina.
Vans was surprised. "You bought a house? You're getting a house?"
"Yeah, it's already done.”
"Isn't living in CoIlina Villa good enough?"
"That's someone else's house, even if he's my ex-husband. One day, he'll move in with another woman," Diana said
with a smile.
It was a smile that held no sorrow or joy.
"I've wanted to move out for a long time, but I couldn't decide before."
Ultimately, she had too many lingering attachments and reluctance to let go of Julian before.
But, as he became increasingly distant and indifferent towards her...
