Chapter 1044
"No... This can't be possible..." Noel grew more confused as he listened.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask her," Julian said." Sometimes, it's best to communicate openly."
Noel had good reason to believe that Julian was testing him. So, he asked, "Why don't you do the same with Ms.
Winnington?"
Julian was caught off guard by Noel's words.
"You have some nerve! Do you think you're impressive now that my fiancee likes you?!"
He and Diana were in different situations. Their love could not be explained in just a few words. He always felt that
his love with Diana was more special than anyone else's.
Julian's anger was still intimidating, even after all the time Noel had spent with him.
Noel shrank back and said firmly, "Sir, don't lie to me!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was sadness and stubbornness in his eyes. "Ms. Jarvis can't possibly like me!"
As he spoke, he became increasingly frustrated. "You can't just push her off to someone else to break the
engagement. It's highly irresponsible of you!"
Clenching his teeth, Noel pushed through his fear of Julian.
He bowed and said, But I really do like Ms. Jarvis. You saw through this a long time ago, I know."
He took a deep breath, avoiding Julian's gaze guiltily. "I'll consider this as you giving me permission to resign, and
leave now. Sir, I wish you and Ms. Jarvis a lifetime of happiness."
Noel had dirty thoughts about Julian's future wife, so he no longer deserved to stay by Julian's side.
With that, he turned and left.
This turn of events ended up making Julian chuckle, despite his initial anger.
He was infuriated! This fool! Such a lovesick idiot! He couldn't even recognize it when a woman liked him.
From this alone, Noel deserved to stay single forever!
Julian returned to the dining room, incensed. He glanced at Cecilia, who was still looking outside expectantly. "Let's
have dinner now. Noel went to take care of something."
He didn't dare to tell her about Noel's resignation. Cecilia would definitely chase after Noel again, especially at this
late hour.
Julian didn't want to deal with their drama right now.
However, Cecilia's eyes displayed worry and longing. Noel had only left for a short while. Was it necessary for her to
react this way?
Meanwhile, Julian had been away from CoIlina Villa for so long. Did Diana miss him more than Cecilia did Noel?
Just as he was pondering, a video call from Diana came in.
Julian's eyes instantly lit up. In his excitement, he immediately answered the call.
As soon as Diana's face appeared on his phone, he regretted his impulsive decision. He should have waited a bit
longer before answering.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy had he picked up so quickly? He was even more foolish than Noel!
"What's wrong?" Julian's expression turned icy.
On the other hand, Diana immediately regretted her decision. She shouldn't have made this call. Yet Layla had
urged her to do it, explaining that the emerald was something the late Madam Fulcher had loved and had intended
to gift to her.
Unfortunately, the old woman had passed away.
Layla had broken down while talking, mentioning how close the old woman had been to Diana. She also said that
Madam Fulcher had given Diana shares of the Fulcher company, which were substantial enough to ensure Diana’s
financial security for a lifetime.
Diana had forgotten this, but Layla reminded her, "Originally, the late Madam instructed me to keep this share
transfer a secret and act as if I didn't know anything. She believed this was the safest option for you."
The shares were incredibly valuable. With how Diana and
Julian kept arguing, Layla felt compelled to remind Diana of the late Madam Fulcher's intentions.
If Diana was unhappy with Julian, she could use this share to secure a comfortable life for herself. The money was
enough to sustain her for generations.
She wouldn't need to continue working so hard.
