Chapter 304
Kayla shook her head when she thought about the expression Mr. Carter would be wearing right now.
This old man…
He was Noel’s father, but it was clear he was far greedier. Thinking about all the things she had gifted him and how
he always acted humble and tried to refuse them made her want to laugh.
She would do it all again for Julian’s sake.
In the end, people would give in to temptation. Without knowing it, Mr. Carter had inadvertently been bought over
by Kayla.
“Alright.”
I’ll
Seeing that she had successfully entrusted the task to him, Kayla no longer intended to continue exchanging
pleasantries with him. “I’ll be counting on you for this, Mr. Carter. After Diana suffered some bitterness, send you

There would only be more benefits waiting and no losses once this matter was done.
Mr. Carter could hear the implied words, and he nodded. “Alright. I’ll do as you asked.”
“Remember,” Kayla reminded him one last time. “Use two grams of the white powder per day. No more and no less
than that.”
“Understood,” Mr. Carter replied. “Please leave it to me.”
And with that, a deal was struck.
Just then, Julian returned to the villa. He was somewhat tired. He collapsed onto the couch and called for Mr. Carter
to bring him some water.
Mr. Carter had just hung up when he heard Julian calling for him. He panicked and hurriedly went to fetch a glass of
water, his hand trembling slightly when he handed it to Julian.
“Here, sir.”
Julian took the water and studied Mr. Carter intently. His dark eyes seemed to pierce through one’s soul, and he
asked, “What’s wrong?”
It felt like something was wrong with Mr. Carter today.
“I–It’s nothing.”
Mr. Carter was relieved that Julian didn’t intend to pursue the matter. “It’s just… You don’t seem to be in a good
mood, sir.”
Julian furrowed his brows and said nothing. It was a typical action when one was in a bad mood.
Diana walked downstairs at this very moment. She had come down because she heard Julian’s car coming into the
driveway, and wanted to ask him about Kayla.
When she saw the deep frown on his face, however, she felt that some things could be understood without words.
She simply needed to believe in the promise he had given her and give themselves a chance so that her babies
would have a complete family.
Diana rubbed her stomach and approached him. “What do you feel like eating? I’ll make it for you.”
It had only been a month, but Diana had changed a lot. Julian couldn’t help but feel a little guilty at her words, so he

His tall figure towered over when he stood from the couch, and he went into the kitchen. He wanted to cook a few
dishes for Diana personally like he used to do in the past.
Diana understood his intentions. “Julian.”
Her tone was warm and affectionate, and Julian felt warmth seeping into his cold heart, as if it was a long- lost
feeling he had just discovered. The more he settled into it, the more he realized it had been a mistake to
push Diana away from him earlier on.
“Hmm?” He dragged out his words, obviously much happier at the tone Diana had used to call his name.
Even his frown had vanished.
Diana relaxed a little more at the uplift of his mood, and said, “Don’t keep thinking about returning to the past.
Forcefully trying to revert back to those days is pointless.”
After all, her heart had been broken to pieces; that was a fact they could never erase.
“It’s the future that’s much more important.”
In other words, it didn’t matter if he wasn’t the same as before, or if he didn’t take the initiative to care for and
cook for her personally.
Those were all simply actions without deeper intentions, after all.
