Chapter 1010
"It depends on what the children think," she said.
The idea of raising the twins separately had been on Diana’s mind for a while, but she hadn't intended to bring it up
with Julian. Today, she brought it up...to divert his attention from Cecilia's infidelity.
Diana hadn't expected Julian to take it to heart. However, it was better to address it sooner rather than later. The
issue had to be resolved eventually.
However, what would Julian do once she left CoIlina Villa with the children and Simon? Would he really go through
with the engagement with Cecilia, as planned?
Well, she didn't have time to think about that for him.
Soon, Julian threw her another challenge.
Just five minutes after returning home, Betty approached Diana with a pout. Her eyes were watery, clearly
indicating that she was on the verge of tears.
Diana hurriedly picked her up. "Sweetie, what's wrong?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDuring this period, Betty had been eating, drinking, and sleeping well. Diana had planned to send Betty to
kindergarten together with Sean once spring arrived.
It had been a long time since Diana had seen Betty this sad.
"Daddy said you want to separate me and Sean," Betty said in a choked voice. Tears streamed down her face.
"Waaah! Mommy, I don't want it! I don't want to be apart. You shouldn't leave, either. I want to stay with you,
Daddy...and... and Sean...hic...together."
Julian Fulcher!
Listening to Betty's words, Diana was both shocked and angry.
How could he tell the kids what she had just said? As if sensing her anger, Julian came to her side and waited for
her to roll her eyes.
Diana looked at him, his seemingly gentle gaze fixed on her. She found herself at a loss for words. All she could do
was continue to comfort Betty.
"Sweetie, don't listen to Daddy's nonsense. How could Mommy ever let you be separated?"
She lowered her head to kiss Betty's forehead. "Good girl. Daddy's talking nonsense. Shall Mommy help you give
him a good scolding?"
Betty had grown. It was clear she wasn't as easily appeased as before. Now, she would question Diana back.
"If you didn't say it, why did Daddy say that? He's an adult. Is he lying to me? Can I also lie like he does in the
future?"
Diana was speechless.
It was truly a dilemma. She had finally reached the day when Betty's countless whys had her stumped. After
thinking for a while, she had no choice but to seek Julian's help.
"What did you say to Betty?"
"Nothing." Julian shrugged nonchalantly. "I just relayed to her your sentiment about letting them choose between
her mommy and daddy."
Diana was speechless again. If she had a hammer in her hand right now, she would definitely bash Julian to the
ground.
Betty understood. She cried again.
"Sniff! Mommy's lying to me. Mommy's lying! Mommy really wants to separate me from Sean. Waaah...! Why can't

As she cried, she clung to Diana's neck, rubbing her face against Diana's and occasionally planting kisses on Diana
to convey her affection.
Diana's face was soon covered in her enthusiastic daughter's saliva.
"Sweetie, calm down and listen to Mommy."
But Betty wouldn't let go. "Sniff, sniff... No! I want Mommy... Waaah...! I don't want to be apart!"
"I understand," Diana comforted Betty, patting the latter’s back gently.
Her daughter's sobs tugged at her heartstrings. She could only put this matter aside for now, and make a
temporary promise to Betty.
"Mommy won't let you be separated from your big brother, and Mommy won't be separated from you either. Can
you please stop crying?"
Upon hearing this, Betty lifted her head from Diana's embrace. "What about Daddy?"
"Daddy..." Diana paused for a moment. "He won't be separated from us, either."
"Yay!" Betty rejoiced, as if she had received a handful of candies. She happily kissed Diana's face several times.
Seeing her daughter finally stop crying, Diana was relieved.
