Chapter 681

Vans had personally dealt with Lina, turning her into Richburgh’s laughingstock with that slap-swollen
face and hair as messy as a bird’s nest on her own banquet.

However, Diana was unable to accept that Vans neither issued Lina an ultimatum nor broke off their
wedding engagement. He didn’t break up with Nina, either.

Yes…

After what happened at the banquet, Nina had requested Vans for a break up. Yet, he didn’t agree to it.

Things between them had reached a stalemate.

Right now, Nina was shunning Vans at all cost.

That was how Diana came up with the idea of inviting Nina over to celebrate the new year. Firstly, it
would help to comfort Nina. Secondly, with Nina around, Vans wouldn’t come visit.

Diana’s heart ached for Nina, but her conflicting feelings regarding Vans clashed in her heart.

He had, after all, risked much to protect her babies once upon a time.

He had also helped her out many, many times.

She instinctively sensed that Vans wasn’t a two-timer or a heartless man. As Julian had said, she
decided it was best

not to meddle in their affairs.

But this new year, Diana was determined to give Nina a joyous celebration.



And so, she had prepared pastries with three different kinds of fillings.

One was Diana’s favorite lychee rose filling, and the other was Nina’s favorite strawberry cheesecake
flavor.

The final filling was Julian’s favorite-chocolate.

The kitchen was tasked to focus on these three types of pastries.

Due to the new year celebrations, half of the kitchen staff had returned to their hometown. With fewer
people around to handle an increased workload of pastries in addition to the proper meals, the kitchen
needed more time to prepare everything.

Diana thought about it before pulling Julian into the kitchen.” The kitchen can prepare pastries of two
fillings. You and I can prepare the pastries of one.”

With that, she grabbed a pack of baking chocolate. “We’ll prepare your favorite filling.”

But Julian was put in a spot. “I don’t know how to…”

The great President of Fulcher Inc. had done everything under the sun-except making pastries.

Stuffing the filling into the dough and wrapping it up tight looked simple, but in Julian’s hands, the filling
would either

slip out or he would end up wrapping it into a horrid-looking turd.

He was unable to do as well as Diana, who managed to accomplish neat rows of beautifully wrapped
pastries lined up on the baking sheet, waiting to bask in the oven.

After dozens of failed attempts, Julian looked helplessly at her. “Diana…”



He really was incapable of doing this.

“Forget it.” Diana knew that it was tough for him. “Since we’re celebrating the new year, I won’t make
things hard for you.”

Julian immediately put down the pastry dough in his hands and heaved a huge sigh of relief.

Diana smiled cheekily. “But to punish you for being unable to wrap pastries, you have to let me draw on
your face.”

Julian was stunned. “Draw what?”

Before he could say anything else, Diana grabbed a handful of flour and started drawing on his face.

By the time she was done, his face was all white and his features were almost indiscernible.

When he blinked, the flour fell off his lashes like snow.

Had he ever been in such a miserable state? Diana burst out laughing so hard that she bent over the
table with her arms supporting her, unable to straighten up.

Everyone around them stood silent out of fear.

Julian was the only one who looked at her dotingly. “What did you draw on my face?”

She drew so quickly and messily on his face, he was unable to make out any shape or pattern.

“I wrote Happy New Year. I didn’t draw anything, I was just teasing you!” She explained in between
laughs. “It’s about to be the new year. I just want to be happy with you.”

That was right.



It was the new year.

“Happy new year,” Julian said gently. “After we celebrate the new year, it’ll be my birthday the week
after. We’ll go through with formal remarriage procedures by then.”

He looked straight into her eyes and asked, “Diana Winnington, will you marry me a second time?”

This was certainly a strange yet unique proposal.

Diana laughed so joyously that her eyes twinkled. She patted his flour-covered face, and flour floated
everywhere- as if they were confetti celebrating their union.

Diana said loudly, “Yes! I will!”

Oliver, who had heard the commotion in the kitchen, stopped dead in his tracks.
