Chapter 1220

Diana leaned against Julian's chest, gasping for breath. Her small face was flushed from exhaustion.

Julian feared hurting her with too much movement, so he quickly resumed massaging her to relax her muscles.

Diana lay half-reclined on the bed, comfortably enjoying the fruits placed within her reach.

"Is your knee hurting?" Julian asked.

He originally hesitated to bring up the topic, but he couldn't hold back.

"In the future, don't kneel for anyone. If I'm not around, let Noel handle things. If Noel can't handle it, just leave it

be.

You can't continue to neglect yourself like this."

He held her knee, gently moving it back and forth. What Diana had suffered in the Jarvises' residence was nothing

compared to the emotional turmoil she was experiencing now.

A spark of defiance lit up in her eyes. In Julian's presence, she was undoubtedly the boss, and she adopted a

commanding tone.

"What are you implying? Should I just ignore you if you get into trouble in the future? Am I that heartless in your

eyes?"

Julian's hands never stopped massaging her, but his voice suddenly turned melancholic. "I'd rather you were

heartless."

If she was heartless, she wouldn't have kneeled. She wouldn't have injured herself on the forehead. She wouldn't

have been running around while pregnant.

"Anyway, once I'm gone, our considerable wealth will all be yours. What are you afraid of? Just don't bother with me

anymore."

The more Julian spoke, the more out of place it felt.

Diana became furious, and refused to let him continue massaging. She raised her foot and placed it on his neck."

Go ahead and die! If you die, it’ll be just me and the children. Heartless scum."

Hearing her unusual tone, Julian knew she was genuinely angry. He dared not say anything more that might upset

her. Instead, he focused on her belly.

Rubbing it gently, he said, "I don't want to die. I won't die so easily. I'm just genuinely worried about you. I can't be

with you every moment."

At a time he couldn't ensure his own safety, he hoped she wouldn't do anything risky. Her primary duty should be to

protect herself and the children.

"Do you regret remarrying me?" Julian asked.

"What's wrong with you today?"

Diana sensed that something was amiss, and rolled over to press him beneath her. She held his cheeks between

her hands and asked, "Why do you keep talking about so many random things today? Is it a side effect of Professor

Hughes's medication?"

"It has nothing to do with that."

Julian had been feeling quite comfortable after taking the medication so far, although he remained wary of Jim's

sudden appearance.

At the moment, he had no other option but to seek Jim's assistance. These unapproved drugs flowing in his

bloodstream did pose significant threats. However, his priority was to stay alive to address other matters.

"What is it, then?"

"After Professor Lemmington's passing, Mrs. Lemmington had a tough time."

It wasn't about material hardships, but rather, emotional struggles.

"When I returned home today, I keep feeling anxious. I thought that if I really died by Enzo's hand, then you and the

children... You..."

"Stop talking."

Diana nestled in his arms, not moving. She held onto him tightly, as if she had found the safest place in the world.

"You'll be fine. I won't let anything happen to you. I'll take this chance to ask Professor Hughes to help you

thoroughly detox, and remove all those toxic substances from your body."

But then, Diana suddenly sat up. "Wait a minute."

Julian frowned. "What's wrong?"

"Why did you take the pill Enzo gave you?"

Given Julian's character, even if Enzo held the twins as bargaining chips, he could still escape. It was hard to believe

he would willingly take the pill.

"I've already told you," Julian replied. "Enzo threatened Sean. If I didn't take the medication, Sean would worry

about you."

"That's not it." Diana didn't believe it. She got up, and kissed him on the face. "You better tell me the real reason

you took the pill."

Julian held her close. "Using the seduction strategy, huh? Are you really eager to know?"
