Chapter 924
Diana’s heart sank when she saw Betty like that.
Julian had been taking care of Betty during this period, when she was busy with work. At his high position, work was
flexible for him. Sometimes, he would even bring Betty to his office.
After the work day ended, he would bring Betty to Diana’s studio. Then, he would take Diana to the kindergarten to
wait for Sean to be released from school. He deserved credit for his patience and thoughtful care, which
contributed much to the improvement of Betty’s condition and recovery.
Those were the times when they resembled a family the most.
No.
Resemble wasn't the right word.
They were a family of four to begin with.
But now, their family was on the verge of separation. Julian was single- minded in pursuing Kiki. Diana had to take
the kids away from CoIlina Villa.

"Mmm.” Betty nodded, her fingers intertwining uneasily. She kept glancing back and forth between Sean and Diana,
worried that they would be fierce toward her because of that.
Since when did Betty become so cautious?
Diana folded Betty into her embrace, and said sadly, "It’s alright for you to miss Daddy. I'll get him to bring you
home."
When Betty missed her and Sean, she would come and take her back.
"I was rash to move out of the villa so suddenly," Diana apologized to
Betty. "I shouldn't have disregarded your opinion and simply decided with Sean where you would go."
Although Betty was the younger twin, she was still a person with her own thoughts.
However, Diana didn't expect Julian to reject her call.
"Diana's calling.” Julian had much to drink. He lifted his phone, which started ringing, to show Kiki the screen-as if
expressing his determination. "I’m not picking it up."
Kiki burst out laughing. She couldn’t help herself from stumbling over to Julian with hazy and unfocused eyes. She
took the chance to collapse next to him.
"Mr. Fulcher, you’re so bad! You're really doing as you said and ignoring her."
Julian immediately leapt off the couch. He covered his mouth with his hands, and pointed to the washroom. "I... I
need to puke."
They really had a lot to drink.
They almost finished up two bottles of expensive champagne that Kiki had been keeping for a long time.
Her stomach was filled with alcohol right now, too. However, she kept holding herself back from puking, for fear
that Julian would see her in a terrible state.
"Go on." She left his side, giving him space to walk toward the washroom.
The moment the door of the washroom was shut, Julian's eyes turned bright and alert.
He twisted the tap open, subconsciously washing Kiki's touch away from each of his fingers, his brows furrowed. He
then took off his jacket, which Kiki had rubbed against, and drenched it with water before flinging it into
the bin. It fell with a clang.
When he walked out of the washroom, Kiki realized that he was only wearing his white shirt. He looked so dashing.

"I dirtied my clothes with my puke," Julian explained casually. "Shall we continue? I probably won't be able to go
home today."
What did Julian mean by that?!
In her agitation, Kiki kept swallowing.
"Stay if you can't go." She immediately grabbed another bottle of whiskey from the second floor. "I'm all out of red
wine. I hope you won’t find whiskey a bad choice."
"I don't."
Julian looked amorously at her, the white shirt stretched across his torso, blindingly bright. It made him look like a
cross between a dashing young man and a confident, suave man who matured with time and was successful in his
career.
Kiki heard him say, "I like whatever alcohol you bring."
The smile on her face widened, and she found herself drinking even more. She drank so much that she started
getting tongue-tied. She saw Julian's figure floating before her, slowly becoming two.
"Mr. Fulcher, Mr. Fulcher!" She grabbed his "hand" as she called out to him.
"You’re mine now. You're mine now!"
