Even if Julian desperately wanted to reach out and hold Diana, to embrace her tightly and greedily breathe in every bit of her presence…he couldn't. It wasn't because he feared the Pabian family, or anyone else. It was because... He had to protect her in a way that seemed at odds with her, a way that appeared to belittle her.Julian refused to believe that Clifford had the audacity to invite Diana as a guest to his home.Despite the Channing family's involvement, this scheme to test Diana's worth in his heart didn't seem like something Simon or Kenneth would come up with. Moreover, they seemed to differ from the script of the one responsible for orchestrating this act from behind the scenes.As for whether Oliver was the mastermind behind it all, Julian couldn't rely solely on speculation.He needed further confirmation. If it really was Oliver, and the man had become so deranged as to target Diana... Julian's eyes narrowed slightly as a dangerous aura poured out around him

However, Noel dared not pry the specific details as to what had changed from last night and led to Julian’s blissful mood. He simply waited quietly until Julian had everything prepared, and silently brought the car out.Seeing that Julian's joyful expression remained, Noel took the opportunity to bring it up. "Sir…?""Hmm?""Yesterday, the madam said-"Julian corrected him stubbornly, "My beloved."Noel seemed taken aback, and couldn't figure out a proper reply.Julian, amused, glanced at him. "And? What did she say?""Nothing." As soon as this topic came up, a wide smile spread across Noel's face. "She just mentioned that you should give me a day of paid leave."He had been working as Julian's assistant for so many years, and had never really taken a break. When Diana brought up this matter, he was quite tempted."You mean to say that even when she’s angry with me after leaving the Pabian family's residence last night, she still thought about asking for a paid day off for y

Diana and Nina never expected Lina to say such things in front of everyone, nor did they anticipate her starting a fight with them in such a bold manner.What's more, it never crossed their mind that the invitation would turn out to be fake. It seemed Lina had collaborated with the celebrity who had given it to Nina, and marked the invitation with a special sign to lure Nina so Lina could vent her anger at this banquet.What was even more unexpected...Was that they actually mistook Diana for being involved with Vans!"Look at her seductive appearance. She's definitely a temptress!" Lina spat as she looked at Diana, eyes burning with jealousy. "Tear out her hair! Bald her! And those shining eyes of hers... Blind her!"Nina was going crazy at what was currently happening.She couldn’t fathom how a wealthy young lady could have absolutely no ladylike qualities to her.More accurately, Lina was even more vulgar than a shrew!Even more surprisingly, Diana's beauty became the reason

He was such a proud man. He probably had never felt such indignation in his entire life.Yet, he had to receive a slap from her in public.“How could I ever be angry with you?” Julian was in high spirits. “As long as you’re not upset with me, I’m fine with you slapping me as much as you wish. The circumstances forced me to say those awful things to you yesterday, and…” “I know,” Diana cut him off. “Clifford has a hold over you. You can’t show him that we have a good relationship. Not only would I be in danger, but it’d also add more burden to you.”Julian was shocked to hear it. “Where in the world did you get that from?”Diana grinned cheekily. “I guessed correctly, didn’t I? The moment Simon invited me to see the Pabians, I knew what was on their mind. Since they don’t intend to harm me and Clifford has no desire to avenge his son, they’re definitely trying to sound me out. “But what impact and threat would I, a woman who owns a tiny studio, pose?“They just wanted to gaug

From then on, he would show no mercy to the Channing family.Just then, Noel called him. “Sir.”There was no need for Julian to hide his relationship with Diana right now. He had no fear of others seeing them stand next to each other like this. With that in mind, he hung his suit over his arm and tidied up Diana’s slightly tousled hair. The solemn look on her face told him that she was still unable to accept such a huge change in Oliver.Julian could only say that Oliver had put on an excellent disguise in the past.So excellent, Diana believed wholeheartedly that he was a warm and kind person.Julian wasn’t in a rush for Diana to accept such a sudden and mind-boggling change.Whatever it was, he had the facts and evidence at hand. Plus, he no longer needed to worry that Diana would stop him from dealing with Oliver.Noel’s voice was tinged with awkwardness. “Sir, Mr. Channing found me out…”That didn’t come as a surprise to Julian.Noel had already accomplished his mission by
