Chapter 1127
Cecilia glared at Diana, her face filled with mockery and contempt.
"You probably know that best. After all, I became crazy because of you! My mom proposed the engagement
because she was worried it’d be difficult for a madwoman like me to get married."
That was it.
Everything that happened was indeed because of Diana.
Diana sighed. "Then why did you call Julian over this time?"
"Didn't Julian tell you?"
Diana shook her head. "He didn't."
Upon hearing Diana's reply, Cecilia felt slightly better. She finally felt like she could raise her head before Diana.
"Nothing much. Just that Noel didn’t accept my confession of love for him," Cecilia said, going all out. "I told Julian

But now, Noel refused to accept her confession.
Cecilia had no choice but to call Julian for help. She knew that Julian would surely agree to it, in return for her calling
off the engagement.
"Do you think Noel likes you?" Diana asked, looking intently at Cecilia.
Instead of replying to her, Cecilia asked her back, "What do you think?"
"He does," Diana affirmed, "but he won't accept your confession, because he doesn't dare to."
"Not because I'm crazy...?''
"Of course not," Diana said. She finally understood why Cecilia slapped her on sight.
Cecilia thought that Noel didn't accept her because of her mental illness. She felt inferior.
Such a thing often happened to people who had feelings for another.
Diana suddenly sympathized Cecilia. Her eyes turned tender and compassionate, and she seized the chance to say,
'You just want to be with the man you love, that’s all. That's just like me. I want that for myself, too.
But getting Julian involved is just going to make things messier.
To Noel, Julian is superior to him in every way.
To Noel, he's not fit for you.
All the more he can’t understand why you like him instead of Julian, since he's a man inferior to Julian in every
single way."
Cecilia's face turn red with anger when she heard Diana insult Noel, and sprang toward Diana. "Diana Winnington!"
"I’m just explaining to you what Noel thinks," Diana said.
This time, she didn't let Cecilia hit her. She dodged Cecilia's attack, and went on, "I’m not saying that Noel really is
inferior to Julian. Everyone has their own strengths and flaws. Although I love Julian, I don't think he's perfect."
Cecilia agreed with her. "Forget being perfect! He can't compare to even a single finger on Noel's hand!"
Cecilia's angry outburst almost made Diana laugh. Her mood had improved by leaps and bounds. "I just want to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmconfirm that you really no longer love Julian, and that you genuinely want to be with Noel."
That way, Diana could help Cecilia be with Noel with a clear conscience. In turn, she could restore their family's
relationship to normalcy with a clear conscience.
Diana made her intentions clear. 'Til help you. As long as you give me a chance, I'll persuade Noel and give him the
courage to face up to his own feelings. But after I do so, I'll also raise my request to Mrs. Jarvis to call off your
engagement with Julian today."
Cecilia was rather surprised at Diana’s suggestion. "I don't need to tell my mom to call off the engagement?"
"No need," Diana said with a smile. "I'll solve the problem that I caused myself."
"Then, Noel..." Cecilia paused for a moment before continuing, "Will he really accept my confession and be with
me?"
"I can't guarantee that, but I will definitely persuade him to face up to his own feelings and his heart. It'll be more
effective than Julian," Diana said honestly.
Cecilia stayed silent for a while.
She was thinking over Diana’s words. She had to admit, Diana was right.
Even so, Cecilia had other plans in mind.
