Chapter 527
While it seemed like there were thousands of miles between them, it also seemed like no one else could come close
to them and that they were in their own little world.
They appeared to be a match made in heaven, yet...
The receptionist knew this photo shouldn't exist, but the scene of them standing together was simply too
captivating for her to resist.
After giving it some thought, she gathered her courage and decided not to delete it. Instead, she carefully saved it
in her phone.
"Have a seat,' Diana said as she pulled out a chair for him.
The sudden opportunity to meet and converse at such close proximity, coupled with Diana's accommodating
attitude, left Julian pleasantly surprised.
The usually composed man had a rampant of emotions surging up, rendering him restless. His actions became

Diana took the initiative and reached out to take the soup from his hands, which allowed Julian to gather himself
and slowly settle down before her eyes.
Diana believed that it was the charm of her white dress. She acknowledged that everything related to Kayla had a
much greater effect than the charm Oliver had given her.
Could any favor, regardless of whether it was life-saving or not, be compared to even a single finger of Kayla in this
man's heart?
No, it couldn't.
This dress alone was enough to make him flustered.
Diana shoved down the sadness in her heart and looked at the man before her with seemingly calm and serene
eyes.
"I was reckless with Kayla. If you want to hold me accountable..."
"That's between the two of you," Julian cut her off quickly, clarifying his stance. "I never intended to get involved.’
As long as Diana wasn't the one hurt, he could turn a blind eye forever.
Diana didn’t expect Julian to be so accommodating. She looked at the things he had brought and sipped the soup. It
tasted the same as it usually would, but the person that bought it had changed.
She could no longer dwell on her past with Julian.
Thinking about it only gave her excruciating pain.
She felt as if her heart had been hollowed out and was suffocating her.
She held her breath, and waited for the soup to go down her throat before slowly clenching her hands and asking,
"Does this dress look good on me?"
Julian was momentarily taken aback.
He didn't expect Diana to ask such a question. It felt so intimate.
It was as if they had never had any conflicts between them.
Instantly, Julian's mood soared. His eyes softened, and there was no trace of hostility in them.
"You look beautiful."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe gentle tone in which he spoke reminded Diana of when she heard his confession to Kayla in the hospital room.
Just because the color of her dress was the same as the ones Kayla often wore, Julian could let go of any grudges
against her.
Moreover, she had a face similar to Kayla's.
Oliver claimed that the debt of saving his life was Diana's life-saving charm, but Diana was even more confident
that the fact her face resembled Kayla's was the real charm.
"You really won't pursue the incident between me and Kayla?" she asked.
"I wont."
He understood Diana could never let go of her hatred for Kayla because of their children. But he had already taken
away Kayla's reproductive abilities, and any further action would be risking her life.
After all, he couldn't go too far as Kayla had saved his life back when he was a child.
However, Diana was different. She was the mother of their children, and she could do anything she wanted to
Kayla. Still, he would only allow it if it didn't hurt Diana in the end.
He was somewhat sympathetic about Kayla's disfigurement, but as the father of the children and Diana's husband-
or rather, ex-husband-he was more inclined to support his wife.
Thinking of this unpleasant title left a sour taste in his mouth, and his exoression turned cold.
