Chapter 1252
Diana had casually tossed aside a gift from someone else. And now, she couldn't even find it!
She was too embarrassed to admit this. She silently swore to herself that she would find the folder and take a
serious look at it before meeting Jim tomorrow.
She was curious to see what kind of apology gift Jim had sent.
The more she thought about it, the less sense it made.
Diana remembered that the folder was thin; there seemed to be just a few sheets of paper inside.
Could that really be considered a gift?
Maybe it was a property deed or something. Her thoughts were becoming increasingly absurd, and she sighed as
she touched her belly.

wandering."
She wondered whether the babies inside her were boys or girls, and what kind of clothes she needed to prepare.
She hadn't wanted to find out the gender yet, wanting to keep a sense of surprise, like opening a mystery box
where you can't guess what's inside until you open it.
She also found herself daydreaming about what it would be
like when the two little ones grew up, and couldn’t stop herself from thinking about other things at the same time.
Sometimes she would even consider getting a couple of pet rabbits, just because she saw some carrots on the
table.
Having four children watching the little rabbits eat carrots together would undoubtedly be adorable.
Now, I'm even fantasizing about a man I just met giving me a property deed," she joked.
She already had her own house now.
Although it wasn't as large as CoIlina Villa, and the entire value of her house couldn't match a single piece of
porcelain displayed in the Fulcher Manor, it was still hers.
Whenever Diana thought of that house, she felt like she had a reliable fallback option even without a natal family.
Just in case she and Julian ever had a fight in the future over childcare, she could retreat to her own little home to
clear her mind. He would have to come over multiple times to convince her to return! i
For now, indulging in fantasies wasn't appropriate.
She didn't really think the folder contained a property deed. She didn't want another house. The main concern was
that if it truly was a property deed, she'd be so terrified that she'd hand it over to Julian like a hot potato, asking him
to return it to the sender.
But her jest was overheard by Layla, who had been feeling guilty towards Julian for the misunderstanding over the

and the quarrel it had caused between him and Diana. Moreover, over the past year, Layla had witnessed Julian's
unwavering kindness and love for Diana.
So, when she heard Diana's comment, Laylaimmediately took it to heart.
A gem like their young mistress couldn't be swindled away by another man. As Layla contemplated who might have
gifted Diana a house along with a property deed, she began her pretence of searching the house for the missing
folder.
"Madam, I still can't find it," Layla reported.
Diana was starting to feel anxious. If she couldn't find the folder, how was she going to explain things to Professor
Hughes when they meet tomorrow and ask about the apology gift?
She couldn't afford to offend him; she needed his help!
While Diana was struggling to recall where she might have placed the folder, Julian was also going through a tough
time.
He had promised to accompany Diana to every prenatal checkup, but it hadn't taken long for him to break that
promise.
