Chapter 1145
Aside from Diana, Grandma wouldn't acknowledge anyone else as her granddaughter-in-law.
"But...” Julian said, his heart breaking, "She left us way too early."
That was why she could never give the necklace to Diana.
Diana thought about the time Grandma left them. Her heart broke, too. Her chest felt tight and suffocating, as if
someone had stuffed wet cotton in it.
The two of them stared silently at the jade necklace for a long time.
"Grandma actually gave me a lot of jewelry. The funny thing was, I once thought of giving the earrings I got from
her to my mother Kate. However, she told me the truth and helped me see how stupid I had been. Grandma was so
thoughtful of me, I owe her so much,” Diana said, her heart breaking even further.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe suddenly had the urge to cry.
Her parents had never given her love and kinship. Grandma was the only one—Grandma more than made up for
the family Diana never had.
The two of them talked for a while. When they finally left the room, they bumped into Layla. She was almost done
preparing the New Year's dinner.
"Sir, Madam, time for dinner?" Her gaze fell on the jade necklace Diana was holding. "Is this necklace...the one that
belonged to Madam Fulcher?"
Diana nodded.
Layla's eyes flashed with guilt. "Sigh..."
She dragged Diana aside, and said, "Before, I thought the jade necklace Mr. Fulcher gave Ms. Jarvis was the same
exact one. I..."
She tried to explain herself, anxious, but Diana understood what she meant.
Diana remembered what Layla said before. It was precisely because of this jade necklace that she had become so
furious with Julian in private. She thought he gave Cecilia something Grandma left behind.
Now that Diana thought about it, she had been too petty. She was also too distrusting of Julian.
"It's all in the past," Diana comforted Layla, hoping that she would let it go. "Things are going well for me and Julian
now, aren’t they?”
They got remarried, and were happily ushering in the New Year.
Layla was reassured by Diana's words, but Julian wasn't too happy to hear it.
He was about to catch Diana at the corridor on the second floor and ask her about getting jealous over the jade
necklace, when an unwelcome guest appeared.
It was Simon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJulian had given the security guards a break on the new year's eve. Therefore, there was no one standing guard
outside the villa.
There were only a few bodyguards secretly stationed around. It was thus a lot easier for Simon to make his way in.
He was in his wheelchair, dressed in a thick padded jacket and a hat. He flashed Julian a bright smile and greeted,"
Hey, Brother. I'm here to celebrate the new year with you guys. You don’t mind, do you?"
The cheek of him to drop by!
The cheek of him to call him Brother!
Julian’s face darkened with displeasure at once, and he flared up at Simon. He looked ready to throw Simon out
immediately if the latter dared to take a step forward.
Diana, too, didn't expect Simon to come. After the truth behind the car accident was exposed, Diana hadn't seen
him even once.
Having regained her memories, her thoughts regarding Simon grew more complicated. After all, he was her best
and most dependable friend back at Stirling City.
