Chapter 1019
With Simon around, Diana couldn’t fully let go.
She had to suppress her happiness. She needed to take Simon’s feelings into ount.
“You go and y with the kids. I’ll stay here with Simon,” she said.
“It’s okay. The attractions they’re ying are child-friendly. I’ve arranged for an assistant to watch over
them, so safety won’t be an issue. You can go y on that one.”
Julian pointed to the carousel.
“We’ll be waiting for you outside the carousel. You can see me and Simon anytime.”
“That’s right,” Simon said. “You’re already here. Won’t you be disappointed if you don’t go on any of the
rides? Go ahead.”
He smiled. “My brother and I will be waiting here. Just look up, and you’ll see us.”
This was Simon’s way of saying he was fine with Julian apanying him.
When Simon called Julian his brother, Diana’s heart skipped a beat. She instinctively nced at Julian.
Fortunately, it seemed he was immune to the term now.
“Go ahead,” Julian said.
Encouraged by their words, Diana hopped on the carousel.
Despite her age, it was her first time experiencing such a ride. “I used to…”
She was overjoyed.
With a cheerful voice, she said, “I used to think this was only for kids. Turns out, adults can have this
much fun too!”
Julian smiled. “You’re not an adult, you’re a princess. My princess.”
Diana didn’t deny it. They seemed to be unable to look away from each other.
Simon couldn’t keep smiling any longer.
“I want to get some fresh air in a less crowded area,” he said.
Julian wouldn’t let him move. “Come, now. Don’t you like Diana? If Diana sees you leaving, she’ll think
you’re upset.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Are you willing to make her unhappy? Surely not.”
Answering his own question, he kept Simon in ce. “Just wait here.”
Then, he nced at Simon again. “Actually, you…don’t want to wait with me, do you?”
Simon didn’t speak, but his eyes betrayed him.
Julian chuckled. He took off his coat, along with Diana’s bag and the twins’ water bottles, and ced
them all in Simon’sp. To Simon’s surprise, Julian walked towards the carousel.
“Thanks for holding down the fort, little brother. Since you don’t want to stand with me, I’ll reluctantly
stay with your sister-inw.”
He turned to Diana, looking slightly upset.
“Simon doesn’t like me.” He forced a bitter smile. “You know, he calls me brother on the surface, but in
his heart…”
Julian waved his hand dismissively, appearing unwilling to borate further. He signaled the carousel
operator to stop the ride momentarily.
Before Diana could react, he joined her and sat behind her on the carousel horse. “But he does like
you. He likes you so much that he actually asked me to y with you, just to make you happy.”
Diana found that a bit hard to believe. “Did Simon really say that?”
“Of course,” Julian replied, holding Diana’s hand. He beamed, and swung her arm yfully as he
shouted loudly at Simon. “Brother, I’m apanying Diana on the ride. Are you happy about it?”
Listening to Julian’s triumphant words, Simon’s face nearly turned green with envy. Nheless, he
could only force a smile and shout back loudly, “Yes, I’m happy.”
What would Diana think of him if he said he wasn’t happy?
She might see him as petty.
Julian was putting Simon in a tight spot, not allowing him toin.
However, Simon could do nothing. He could onlyugh and say, “Have fun, you two.”
Of course, Diana couldn’t continue enjoying herself. She felt ufortable leaving Simon alone in his
wheelchair while her family had fun.
However, Julian didn’t let her go.
“He’s trying to be kind. Given his personality, wouldn’t he think you’re looking down on him if you insist
on leaving the ride? He wouldn’t want you to cater to his emotions. He’d really hate it.”
Simon was determined. It was precisely that determination that often put Diana in a dilemma.
Now, she was caught in a simr dilemma.
