At the Jarvis family’s residence, Julian had been waiting in the living room for a while.
He was rather distracted when he appeared before them. The uneasy feeling lurking in his heart was at
its peak.
He couldn’t be calm when he thought about things on Diana’s end. He was about to call her to ask
about the situation, when Sue walked toward him. Sorrow was etched on her face.
When she saw Julian, a mix of hatred and hope filled her eyes. She cried, “Mr. Fulcher, I’m begging
you!”
Before she went further, she bowed at Julian.
He had no choice but to keep his phone in his pocket for the time being.
He helped Sue to her feet, and asked, “Why exactly did you call me here today? Where is Cecilia?”
“She…” The mention of Cecilia deepened the sorrow on Sue’s face. “You’d better take a look upstairs.”
A bad feeling rose in Julian’s chest. “Where is she?”
“On the second floor.” Sue composed herself before going on, “Come with me.”
As they walked, Julian noticed pink diamonds scattered along the way, each a few steps apart. They
formed a route
leading all the way to Cecilia’s room.
Sue saw the doubt in his eyes, and nodded at him. “That’s from the necklace you sent to her before.”
Cecilia had undone the diamonds on the necklace, one by one, and placed them like this on the
second floor.
“When she came back from the studio, she did that to the necklace and refused to let anyone else
touch it. Even our housekeepers have to avoid the diamonds carefully when they clean the house.”
Sue sighed. “We ourselves want to know what exactly happened that day. Cecilia has been behaving…
so strangely since then.”
Julian looked at the pink diamonds, and immediately told Sue what he had heard from Diana.
“I was anxious that day. I really shouldn’t have splashed the paint on her.”
There were a hundred other ways he could use to dash Cecilia’s hopes for him. Yet, of all ways, he
chose the most direct, most brutal, and most hurtful way.
“That day was my children’s death…”
“Julian Fulcher!” Sue screamed.
She didn’t have the patience to hear himself explain himself. Her eyes had turned red, shimmering with
tears. Every word Julian said to her were like knives piercing her heart.
“I was wondering why my good daughter Cecilia suddenly became like this overnight!”
The facade she was trying so hard to maintain broke. She didn’t even care about Julian’s status and
power. Right now, she was a mother who could turn aggressive for the sake of her child.
She yelled at Julian at the top of her lungs, “Since you don’t like her, why did you give her hope at all?!
She’s been our beloved darling since she was a child! She has never been humiliated like this!
“No wonder she refused to say anything, even though I keep asking her what’s wrong. She even told
me not to worry.
“But…she hasn’t eaten for days!
“Her life is barely sustained by the nutrient solution we hook her up to. Each time I see her, she’d
always tell me-Mom, I want to die. I feel terrible. I don’t want to live anymore.”
Sue’s heart trembled as she said those words.
That was the child she carried in her womb for ten months!
The darling of the Jarvis household!
If Cecelia hadn’t met Julian, they would’ve found a great match for her, and seen her get married and
have children. She would have a lifetime of happiness ahead of her!
Yet now, everything is ruined!
“No wonder she looked so energetic and lively when all of us went to the studio to look for her. She
answered all of our questions so seriously,” Sue went on.
Cecilia was even laughing.
She was probably putting up a front at that time.
She didn’t want her family members to worry about her.
She didn’t want them finding out what was wrong, and getting embarrassed or humiliated.
But the moment she reached home, the place she was familiar with, the hurt she suffered overflowed
from the depths of her heart.
She couldn’t hold her emotions back any longer.
That was how she became like this now.
Sue’s heart ached the more she thought about it.
“She had such strong pride, and had never been hurt like this since she was a child. How could she still
be well when you treated her like that?!”
The more Sue spoke, the worse Julian felt.
