Chapter 594


    He was even trying to clear Diana’s name.


    As it turned out, he had always known what she cared about, even though he never made it clear.


    Still, this wasn’t the best ce for a confession.


    Julian didn’t intend to confess. He didn’t even know that his beloved Diana, whom he had been pining


    for, was here.


    He knelt because he no longer cared about his dignity, not even his pride. All he wanted was to know


    where Diana was.


    There were so many people and so many pairs of eyes around, which was better than him looking out


    for her alone.


    Ever since he realized that he loved Diana, he had be more humble and no longer thought of


    himself as invincible and all-powerful.


    He looked at every single person in the crowd, his body upright and his side profile perfect like a Greek


    god statue. His kneeling posture did nothing to lessen hismanding aura and instead, made those


    before him tremble in uncertainty.


    Some people in the crowd even began slowly kneeling before him, unable to stand the tension any


    longer…


    However, Julian didn’t care for all these details. He simply wanted to express what was in his heart.


    “But right now, she and my grandmother have been kidnapped by the so-called bride today!”


    His voice turned solemn as he went on, “I plead for everyone to help me find them. As long as you can


    find her and ensure their safety, the Fulcher family will reward you handsomely!”


    His simple words were like a huge explosive in the hall.


    It effectively expressed his unwillingness to get married and his sincere plea for help.


    The guests were shocked into silence by Julian’s sudden announcement. Just like fireworks that


    exploded into the night sky, someone reacted right at that moment. “Mr. Fulcher! Please stand!”


    “Mr. Fulcher, it’s our honor to help you. Please don’t kneel for us.”


    “Yes!” Someone else added. Someone even rushed over and helped Julian up to his feet. “We are


    witnesses to all the economic contributions you’ve made to Richburgh. Many people depend on the


    Fulchers fortheir livelihood. We will never say no to helping you find someone!”


    “Exactly!”


    “Precisely!”


    All of a sudden, no one cared about the wedding and Ka. Everyone began activating theirwork to


    search for Diana.


    Just then, Diana said tenderly, “Julian.”


    She said it in such a small voice; she even forgot to position the microphone by her lips, but Julian


    managed to hear her voice.


    “Diana?!” He looked up in shock as his dark eyes suddenly lit up. He stood up on stage immediately,


    and stared at her in disbelief. “Diana? Is that you?”


    She sobbed as she rushed toward him. “It.Jt’s me…”


    She had never expected this proud man to kneel for her sake.


    He was so proud, so reserved. He had never bowed to anyone since he was a child, yet he fell to his


    knees before so many people for her sake.


    He did so just to search for her and Madam Fulcher!


    She shouldn’t have hesitated. Had she called out for him earlier, would he have to humble himself in


    such a way?


    She should’ve believed him and believed Madam Fulcher. She should’ve believed that he gave her all


    in ces she couldn’t see!


    She was wrong.


    She shouldn’t have distrusted him!


    At the next moment, the tearful woman was pulled into a strong embrace.


    It was a warm, dependable, firm yet tender embrace.


    His hands cupped her chin tenderly, for fear that he would touch her wounds. He didn’t dare to look at


    her body; her wounds were akin to whipsshing on his heart.


    The wounds were testament to how difficult it must’ve been for her to get here.


    He didn’t dare to ask for details, but simply hugged her with trembling arms as he chanted, “Don’t be


    afraid, don’t be afraid.”


    He was here.


    He didn’t marry Ka.


    Before he knelt down, Julian had already figured out that as long as a hugemotion broke out at the


    scene, he’d be able to get more people to help him find Diana and avoid going through with the


    wedding rites with Ka.

    Everything had gone ording to his ns.


    In fact, it had gone much better than he had thought. Diana appeared right before him like an angel


    descending to earth.


    “I didn’t kneel in vain.”


    There wasughter in his voice, which was as melodious as a symphony.


    The smile on his face was like a breeze in springtime, telling of all his affections and love. “I didn’t


    be another woman’s husband.”
