Chapter 603
"You're wrong," Diana replied calmly.
Her pale, tense face finally showed a hint of a smile.
"I started way before that."
In this world, there was never a reason for someone to receive constant harassment.
However, Diana chose to take a detour.
She had thought that Julian's beloved was Kayla. Thus, she tried to find ways to strike at Kayla indirectly.
But in actual fact...
If Diana had been willing to communicate with Julian openly and trusted him a little more, perhaps she wouldn't
have had to take all these detours as she had done. All she would have needed to do was give the word, and Julian
would have moved even mountains for her.
He had proved it, after all. He was willing to throw even his life away for her.
Thinking of the man currently fighting for his life in the operating room, Diana's eyes flooded with tears again.
Uneasiness and fury surged through her, and she snarled, " Whether it's my babies or Julian, your mistake lies in
hurting the people I care about!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf it wasn't for that, Diana would have kept her distance from Kayla. Even if Kayla kept the title of being the
Winnington family's
lady, Diana could still ignore that. She wouldn't have touched James or Kate, either.
But now...
Kayla was also crying, but she was crying for her own plight.
When she couldn't contact Lucy or James before the wedding started, she should’ve noticed that something was
wrong.
For James not to place any importance on something he had been eagerly waiting for was a big clue that something
major must have befallen him.
Little did Kayla know, Diana was the one who had set it all up. She had deliberately lured them into attending the
exhibition, then made sure the factory equipment and the workers in Winnington Fashions weren’t ready for the
increased workload caused by the sudden surge in orders, ultimately leading to the collapse in their reputation and
quality.
The Winnington would definitely hold them accountable for this mess!
James wouldn't be able to escape the blame.
If Kayla wasn't trapped here, she was sure the family head would have also summoned her and even disciplined
her...
Kayla was furious that Diana had severed her most important support. "James is also your father! You're so
heartless! Aren't you afraid of karma?"
"Karma?" Diana repeated, and she couldn't help herself from laughing at Kayla's ridiculous words. "You've done so
many things to me without facing any consequences, so why should I be afraid?"
Since karma wouldn't come for her, Diana would take matters into her own hands.
"But you provoked me first!" Kayla shrieked.
As soon as she said that, a crisp slap echoed in the room.
Diana had slapped her across the face, hard.
Kayla was left in a daze; she desperately wished she could charge at Diana now and fight the latter to the death.
However, she was tied up rightly and unable to move an inch. She could do nothing else but endure Diana's harsh
treatment.
"I've never been one to play nice," Diana remarked as she set the knife aside and casually tossed away the
loosened bandage from her wrist. She took aim at Kayla and said, "Now that the tables have turned, I'm going to
vent my anger properly."
Diana had gone through a rough ride for the past few days.

Every single one of them!
Her babies, Julian, Madam Fulcher, and even herself!
The only sound in the room was that of Diana slapping Kayla repeatedly, the latter's head snapping from side to
side with every blow.
It continued until Kayla's veil fell to the ground, and her previously disfigured wounds started to deteriorate again.
The cuts turned red and eventually bled, the wound widening to resemble a gaping mouth.
Every time Diana struck Kayla, she would use all the strength in her body. If this went on, the force of these blows
alone could bring Kayla to the brink of death, even without using the knife Diana had brought.
Kayla seemed to finally realize her approaching mortal peril, and started to panic.
"D-Diana... No, my dear sister! Please!"
Now that Kayla had no one she could rely on in the Winnington family, she could only hold onto Diana tightly if she
wanted a chance for survival!
She even thought of kneeling before Diana, but the ropes bound her too tightly and she couldn't move a muscle.
So, she could only find another way to halt Diana in her tracks.
"Yale Village!" she suddenly shouted. "Y-Yale Village!"
