Chapter 1012
Diana’s face turned red all of a sudden. She hadn’t expected Julian to voluntarily admit that he had
been cheated on.
Very quickly, she realized she didn’t need to feel sorry for him.
“So, you’re using me as a backup n now? You knew Cecilia fell for someone else, so you turned to
me?”
She was back to ming him. Julian was speechless at her line of thinking.
Never attempt to reason with a woman.
Still, he couldn’t help but try.
“That’s not what I meant.”
There seemed to be plenty of grief in Julian’s eyes. Before Diana could react, he suddenly buried his
face in her embrace.
“From the start, I only thought of you. Agreeing to Sue’s engagement request and bringing Cecilia back
was just a situation I couldn’t avoid.”
Otherwise, he could never get Shiloh to treat Cecilia.
The Stewarts and the Jarvises were part of high society. For Cecilia’s long-term well-being, they had to
control her illness with slow-acting Western medicine. If news of her illness spread, it would be difficult
to arrange a good marriage for her.
But if Julian could take Cecilia out of the Jarvis family and have Shiloh treat her, it would be different.
As long as Cecilia stayed at CoIlina Vi, she was essentially Julian’s woman.

In Shiloh’s eyes, Cecilia had already beenbeled with Julian’s name. Her origins wouldn’t matter
much. This was the only way Cecilia could recover quickly.
Diana listened with a puzzled expression. She even forgot to push away the enchanting man in front of
her.
The spotlight inevitably fell on Julian, making him shine too brightly. Her brain seemed to have crashed.
Every time she looked at his face, it was a different kind of breathtaking. It was enough to make her
pause her breath. She even subconsciously believed his words.
“What about your engagement with Cecilia?”
When Julian heard that, he smiled slightly. He adjusted his position to find afortable angle on her
body, theny down on herp and looked into her eyes.
“Didn’t you say you don’t care about me?”
Why did Diana instinctively believe him? She even subconsciously thought about how he and Cecilia
would break off their engagement.
“What? Are you waiting for me to annul my engagement with her, so you can marry me?”
Diana blushed. “Don’t talk nonsense.”
She said that, but she didn’t push him away. She even let him lie on herp.
Between them…
There were rarely such quiet moments. So rare, she even wished time could freeze at this moment.
In their world, there was no Simon, no Cecilia-just the two of them.
Diana’s voice was gentle. There was none of her usual avoidance, indifference, or resentment. She
spoke with sincerity.
“I do want to marry you, but reality doesn’t allow it.”
As she spoke, sheughed.
Then, a tear fell.
Itnded on Julian’s nose.
With a soft plop, it dripped down his nose.
His heart tightened instantly. He sat up abruptly, grabbed a tissue, and wiped her tears.
He was wrong!
He shouldn’t have set up a trap for Diana, who was drowning in her guilt towards Simon. He shouldn’t
have used Cecilia’s to force and manipte Diana into confronting her feelings!
He should havee to her earlier.
Then, she wouldn’t be feeling this way!
When his fingers touched her cheek, Diana blushed andughed sheepishly.
“I really don’t know what’s wrong. Back in Stirling, I didn’t cry even when things were so tough. But ever
since I came to Richburgh and saw you…”
She couldn’t hold back any longer. She burst into tears, and hugged him tightly.
“Sniff, sniff… Julian… Julian…”
If there hadn’t been an ident, and if Cecilia hadn’t fallen ill, she should have regained her memory
with Shiloh’s help by now. She would be living happily with Julian and the twins.
Unfortunately, so many things had happened. 1
