She must be in great remorse, her heart broken, when she said such words-especially last night.
She probably felt so helpless when he argued with her.
Julian wanted to treat her so well—but somehow, so often, he would inadvertently cause her even
more hurt.
“I’m the one to blame,” he said, patting her back gently. “I want to take care of Cecilia because I want to
correct the wrong I’ve done, and bear the responsibility that I should.”
That might be right, but if Cecilia had truly gone insane, how long was he going to take care of her for?
What exactly did the Jarvises want from him?
Do they really not want Julian to marry Cecilia and bear the fullest responsibility?
Julian didn’t consider that last night, but Diana did. That was why she wanted to first confirm whether
Cecilia had truly gone mad or not.
If it was true, then it was right of Julian to do whatever he could to make it up to the Jarvises.
And yet, she had merely raised a suggestion when Julian started yelling at her.
She shoved him away.
“Right now, I…”
Last night, he had abandoned her when she needed him the most.
Right now, she no longer needed him anymore.
“I can understand you,” Diana said, “so if you want to take care of her, just go. Because right now, I
need to take care of Simon too.”
No matter what Simon thought and whatever he felt regarding his disability, Diana would bear the
responsibility of her wrongdoings-just like Julian.
Julian’s face stiffened.
“Are Simon’s legs really…”
“They are,” Diana cut him off mid-sentence, suddenly finding the situation rather amusing.
Julian subconsciously asked whether Simon’s crippling was genuine after hearing about the accident.
Diana didn’t get angry with him; even when Julian got angry with her last night.
As for Julian, he now understood how it felt to know that she was going to take care of his rival in love.
Stones weighed on his heart, so heavy that he almost drowned. It was suffocating and stifling; he had
to try hard to breathe amidst the jealousy and worry rising in his chest.
He was also worried about the future.
The beautiful vision of his and Diana’s future together faded away once again, as if fate were playing a
nasty prank on them.
He had seen the stubborn look on Diana’s face when she pushed him away.
His fingers gradually stiffened.
Still, right now wasn’t the time to get emotional.
“I want to go in and see Simon,” Julian said.
This time, Julian heard from the bodyguards that Simon really didn’t intend to hurt Diana. He was
actually trying to protect her.
But because he tried to give Diana the pill a few days ago, she was still traumatized around him.
In the end…
Diana glanced at Julian and urged, “Don’t. You should be taking care of Cecilia right now. As for
Simon… I know he’s your brother. Because of this, I…”
She choked on her words.
“I’m sorry to you both. But…”
She took a deep breath.
“The one Simon wants to see the most is probably me”
She had been standing by the door, trying to muster the courage to face Simon. Until now, she had
been unable to open the door.
“Leave.” She pushed Julian away, inadvertently preventing him from comforting her.
Words were useless at this point.
Despite that, Julian still said, “I’m just taking care of Cecilia, that’s it. I don’t have any other intentions. If
the Jarvises want more out of me, I won’t agree to it.”
He had already made the mistake with Kayla. At that time, he thought the way to make it up to
someone was to fulfill her wish.
In truth, the right way was to know when to stop, and be honest and upfront with each other.
There was no need for him to promise her anything.
