Chapter 1356

That was the freedom Betty had been looking forward to for a long time. It was time she had to herself
to let her hair down.

Julian didn’t want to interrupt her.

Julian left her door and turned to walk back to the master bedroom he shared with Diana. He lifted his
hand, and knocked on the door.

Diana heard the knocks, but didn’t stand up. “What do you want?”

She sounded sullen and clearly upset, which frustrated Julian.

“Diana…” he coaxed in a low voice. “Open the door for me, come on.”

Everyone in this house was ignoring him, and it was souring his mood.

He had seen that Diana was clearly in a bad mood, but because he wanted to see Nina off first, he
didn’t rush to talk to Diana about it.

“Nina has something she wants me to convey to you.”

Nina…

Diana thought again about her best friend, who said such hurtful words not long ago. She suppressed
the pain overflowing from her heart, and said, “There’s nothing to be said. I want to be alone.”Books

“What exactly happened between you and Nina?” Julian leaned against the door, trying to talk to her
through the barrier.

“Nothing much.”



Nina did say unpleasant stuff about her.

On the other hand, she too had said something unpleasant about Nina. She actually called her a third
wheel, and insisted Nina to give up on her relationship with Vans.

Even when she knew very well how much Nina loved Vans.

It wasn’t easy to give up on someone you love.

She shouldn’t have thought that Nina would heed her advice. That was easier said than done.

Ultimately, things on Jim’s side had gone wrong.

She had pleaded with Jim to talk things through with the Jennings. However, there was no news from
him, even after so long.

She thought about it, and finally called Jim.

It had been over a month since she last met Jim.

During this period, Diana never initiated contact with him.

Of course, that was true of Jim, too.

Diana thought Jim wouldn’t answer her call. Much to her surprise, he did—very swiftly, too. His voice
was warm and soothing as he asked, “Ms. Winnington?”

Diana nodded. “Professor Hughes, it’s me.”

Diana found herself shameless for calling him only when she needed help. Suddenly, she found herself
unable to voice the doubts in her mind.



Jim beat her to it. His voice filled with expectations and concern, he asked, “Ms. Winnington, have you
been well recently? How are your babies doing?”

Diana held back the words at the tip of her tongue, and hurriedly responded, “Good, good. Thank you
for your concern, Professor Hughes. The babies and I are fine. The check-ups have all gone smoothly,
too.”

“You’re welcome,” Jim said.

It sounded as though he had some alcohol. His voice sounded slightly gravelly, magnetic even. It was
as pleasant as Julian’s voice.

In fact, he was as superior a man as Julian was. He was on par with Julian, worthy to stand by Julian’s
side.

“I will always be concerned for you.”

His words sounded so ambiguous that it made Diana’s heart jump.

She instinctively wanted to switch the call to loudspeaker mode, and look for Julian to listen in on the
rest of the conversation.

Jim continued talking, leaving Diana no chance to act. “Ms. Winnington, you and the babies must stay
safe and sound. Only that will make me rest easy.”

Diana had no idea when she became so close to Jim.

Perhaps he was just being polite.

She really shouldn’t be so sensitive, thinking as though every man in the world had feelings for her.
