Chapter 1471
The afternoon sun wasn't as scorching as it was in the morning. It felt gentler and made Diana's dewy skin glow.
When a stray lock of hair fell, it seemed like a ripple spreading out on a sparkling lake.
Jim’s mood lifted instantly.
With her head bent over and her neck exposed, Diana looked like she belonged in a beautiful painting. There was a
delightful charm about her, with her hand resting on her swollen belly.
"Have you ever fallen in love?” Jim suddenly asked Diana as he looked at her.
He had never been in love.
Yet, suddenly, he felt an itch in the depths of his heart.
He clicked on the browser on his computer and briefly described what he was feeling right now in the search bar.
The conclusion he arrived at was, "OP, you want to be in a relationship."
Jim felt as though someone had hit him over the head with a hammer.
How could he possibly want to be in a relationship?

He should be concentrating on his research. His mother said that one had to be single-minded in order to achieve
great things, make history, and contribute to the medical field for the sake of the human race.
He was fated to give his all to the medical field. He couldn't possibly start a relationship with a woman.
"I need the washroom," Jim said as he stood up, retracting his gaze from Diana.
Diana was shocked by his sudden announcement.
She turned her attention away from the book and nodded in acknowledgement. A smile crept up her face.
Her plan was working!
Seizing the chance while he was gone, she hurriedly put the book down and walked to his computer and clicked
open the internet browser.
But...
Jim’s previous search record was still there.
Diana read through Jim’s description.
Hmm...
Did he want to be in a relationship?
With her?
Diana felt a chill down her spine. She would rather be left alone and die in the operating theater than to betray
Julian and be with Jim.
In this life, Julian was the only man for her.
Still, Jim was probably just doing a casual search.
A man who was vicious enough to leave her and her other baby dying on the operating table couldn't possibly have
the heart to be in a relationship. He was probably just curious.
Diana didn't think too much of it, and turned her attention back to calling for help over social media.
She had to contact Julian through the post! She had to!
Thinking of Julian gave her strength from within.
Very soon, her fingers started pressing the keys as fast as possible while trying not to make a sound.
Jim was very quick at the washroom, and she heard the toilet flushing when she was only halfway through typing
out her post.

Yvonne’s patience was wearing thin from being tormented by Fanny.
Fanny was at times easy-going, and at times very difficult to deal with. Yvonne was having a nervous breakdown
after taking care of Fanny over the past few days.
When Oliver finally came, she hurried forward and exclaimed, "Mr. Channing, you're finally back!"
The look on her face said it all. Oliver thanked her for her hard work, and went upstairs to take a look at Fanny.
The moment he pushed the door open, he saw Fanny seated quietly on the bedside. Her eyes were red; she looked
indignant, as if someone had tormented her.
The moment Fanny saw Oliver enter her room, she immediately rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand, but
that only made them redder.
She looked like a weak and vulnerable rabbit that suddenly spotted a big, bad wolf so fearsome she forgot what she
should do. The only thing left in her mind was fear.
Coupled with her white lace dress, she was the picture of pity and vulnerability.
He had never seen that look on Fanny’s face before.
Oliver's eyes turned dark, and he shut the door behind him tight.
