Chapter 1097

Chapter 1097 Julian had always been sharp and intelligent, on top of being calm and frank.

Yet whenever it came to anything involving Diana, he would turn dazed and foolish.

But Diana wasn’t actually with them now, and Julian...

“Tm fine,” Julian said, looking as if he had just woken up froma daze.

“I just felt a sudden pain in my chest, that’s all.” “Is Shiloh not doing his job? He’s supposed to look after your health!” Vans asked.

Julian had just recovered from a fatal condition! Even now, a doctor of Shiloh’s skill and reputation hadn’t been able to name Julian’s condition.

He could only treat Julian based on the symptoms.

Back then...

Vans had personally witnessed how Julian suffered from the condition.

At his worst, his entire person went as pale as a sheet.

Not only did his health worsen, but he looked as if his life was sucked out of him.

The memory of how weak Julian looked back then made Vans tremble.

“Julian...” He was afraid.

Julian knew what Vans was worried about.

Smiling, he said, “ What are you thinking? Since Shiloh was able to save me, I’ll be fine.” The sudden pain he felt just now must have been a once-off accident.

Julian didn’t think much of it.

Since using chopsticks to get the stalks out didn’t work, he had to try another way.

He calmed down, and told Vans to wait outside for him.

He removed the shower head from the stand, aimed it at the drainage hole, and forced the stems out using the pressure from the water.

That worked out, somewhat.

It managed to remove just the top- most layer of stalks.

There was still some hair stuck at the back.

He had to look for a vacuum and suck out the remnants in the drain.

Thankfully, that worked well.

Although it took some time, he finally managed to unclog the drain.

“Remember,” Julian said as he left the washroom, his shirt completely drenched.

“Don’t tell Diana I did this.” Vans shook his head exasperatedly.

“It’s cold outside.

You’ ll definitely catch a cold going out like that.” He walked out, saying, “I’ll go grab some of my clothes.

Wear them before heading out.” “No need,” Julian said, “I still have other things to attend to.” The person he assigned to look for Noel had returned with news.

This time, they managed to surround Noel in his room.

However, he refused to go to the Jarvis residence with them.

And so, everyone decided to call Julian to try persuading Noel.

It was good enough they managed to find Noel.

That meant Julian and Cecilia’s engagement would soon be called off.

When that happened, Julian could stand before Diana without shame.

He would be able to give himself fully and completely to her.

This time, he would hold her hand and never let go.

Meanwhile...

“you cried today not just because you miss Grandma, Aster and Star,” Nina said to Diana with certainty.

The twins had fallen asleep on the way back from the cemetery.

Nina went on, “If you feel troubled, you must tell me.

That’s the only way we can solve problems together.

If you keep it to yourself, It’ll only make you feel worse.

“That’s especially so for women, as Vans said.

“women like to get angry and keep their feelings to themselves instead of expressing it.

That would often result in various lumps and tumors.” Women could do without loving men.

However, they had to love themselves.

Diana feared Nina would worry about her.

“I’m expressing myself by crying.” She felt much better after crying it out.

Even the skies looked brighter in her eyes.

“Whether Julian comes looking for me, whether he meets me, or whether he admits that he’s Mr.

Whatever...

All these aren’t important anymore,” Diana said.

“Anyway, I'll buy Oliver’s apartment today.” She said it so casually.

But to Nina, her words were as loud as a gong.

“If Julian one day told you he had his reasons for neglecting you, for not seeing you and caring about Cecilia more, would you forgive him?” Nina asked.

Diana paused for a moment.

Then, she said with a bitter smile, “ What kind of reasons could he have?” She said it lightly, but each word hit the nail on the head.

“What kind of reason could he have to make me feel so unloved by him? To continue chasing after her despite knowing that she loves another man?”
