"I'm sorry,"Cecilia said quickly.She was blaming Julian while not excusing herself at the same time.
"I should’ve objected vehemently to this engagement right from the start."
Despite her words, she didn't do anything about it at all.
Both she and Julian were wrong in their own right.
Thus, it was pointless to shift the blame.
"Bring Noel to me," Cecilia demanded.
He was the person she wanted to see the most.
Cecilia refused to wait aimlessly.
Bent on getting her way, she decided to go back on her promise she made at the countryside right
there and then.
"I'll tell my mom to call off the engagement only after Noel accepts my confession and gets together
with me," she said.
"But before, you told me that as long as I stay at Albert's that night and wait for Noel with you, you'd tell
your mother about calling off the engagement," Julian argued.
Cecilia shrugged.
"I did say that."
However!
"I'm going back on my word."
After thinking things through, Cecilia decided waiting without doing nothing was useless.
It was obvious Julian couldn't care less about her and Noel.
She missed Noel dearly and wanted to see him, and she needed Julian’s help for that.
Julian had no choice but to try and talk reason to her.
"Noel might need some time.He'll appear when he comes around."
"And when will that be?"
Cecilia knew that the moment she called off her engagement with Julian, he wouldn’t be bothered with
her.
Sue had stopped leveraging the Jarvis family’s network to help Cecilia find Noel.
If Julian turned a blind eye to Cecilia, getting reunited with Noel would become a faraway dream for
her.
"Call me selfish or shameless if you wish," Cecilia said.
She didn’t care.
Only those who have been apart from their loved ones know how terrible it feels to be unable to see the
other party.
"It's true I don't love you anymore, but I'm not so generous as to let you and Diana lead a happy life
while I'm still waiting for Noel to appear.What if he decides never to show up ever again?"
How on earth was she going to find him? How was she going to confess her love for him? Julian was
furious with her.
Nothing he said was getting into her head! At that instant, he wanted to tell Sue about calling off the
engagement himself.
Despite that, he knew Sue would refuse him.
Heck, the matter might blow up and cause his efforts to backfire.
He had only one choice that could give him the greatest chance of success—and that was by giving in
to Cecilia.
Julian finally came to a decision.
"One week.By then, I'll bring Noel to you.But you have to keep your promise."
Cecilia liked Noel, and Noel liked her too.
The last time Julian told Noel that Cecilia liked him, Noel refused to believe him.
Julian thought that if Noel heard it personally from Cecilia, he would definitely be over the moon.
The two of them would no doubt get together in the blink of an eye.
Calling off the engagement would only be a matter of time.
Cecilia grinned.
"Deal!"
After leaving Cecilia’s room, Julian called for all his subordinates to join in the search for Noel.
However, Noel had worked so long for Julian that he knew Julian’s subordinates and modus operandi
like the back of his hand.
Each time Julian’s subordinates found a clue on his whereabouts, he would’ve been long gone by the
time they rushed there.
He seemed to sense it whenever they found him.
Soon, the one week Julian promised Cecilia almost passed.
Over the past four days, he had been so busy with work and keeping a close watch over the search for
Noel that he hardly had time to see Diana.
"Daddy," Betty called.
She pouted unhappily as she stood at the side, hugging her doll.
Julian ignored her, and continued staring at his computer screen.
Betty looked at Julian, displeased.
She said in a huff, "Just be with your work! I don’t need you anymore! I can go find Mommy and Sean
without you!"
She had money, anyway.
If Mommy and Sean were far away, she could just hail a taxi.
Betty's voice was becoming less childish and much clearer by the day.
