Chapter 651
Lucy heard that everyone in Richburgh had silently acknowledged Diana as the young mistress of the Winnington
family.
She even heard that Old Master Winnington had personally looked up Julian in hopes that Diana would acknowledge
her family ancestors.
At that, Julian simply said, "What makes you think that Diana wants to be part of the Winningtons?"
His simple statement left the Old Master Winnington in disgrace. From then on, he dared not bring the matter up
again or visit Diana.
This incident added to Diana's legend in Richburgh.
Suddenly, thousands of people wanted to curry favor with her.
Kayla, on the other hand, was stuck in jail.
She was stuck there, in endless sorrow and pain.
Lucy had to save her daughter!
As long as Lucy could save Kayla, given her face that somewhat resembled that of Diana's, there was definitely a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtchance that Kayla could regain Julian's affections once more!
Lucy conveyed her thoughts to her boss.
Her boss smiled comfortingly. "Don't you worry."
The clothes he was wearing were pressed neatly, and the quality of the fabric was clearly better than what Lucy
saw on Old Master Winnington. Yet this boss of hers was supposedly merely a servant of a huge family.
The thought increased Lucy's reverence towards him. "Can she be saved?"
Could Kayla be saved from prison?
"Yes, she can." The boss grabbed a bottle of water and passed it to Lucy. "As long as you drink this, you'll be able to
see your Kayla."
Lucy was confused. Why and how could she see Kayla after drinking this?
Her mind was filled with doubt, but then she thought perhaps he meant that by the time she finished this bottle, he
would be able to save Kayla from prison.
Thinking that, her boss seemed so powerful.
Lucy smiled and grabbed the bottle from him. "Thank you, sir! Thank you!"
The moment she drank, the woman by the name of Lucy Landon no longer existed in Richburgh.
The Porsche drove slowly out of Richburgh toward the west, not leaving even a trace of surveillance footage
behind.

The day Kate came visiting was the day Richburgh snowed for the first time this winter season.
Kate wore a thin layer of clothes, a long sleeved cardigan and an inner sweatshirt. Her ensemble made her feel
exceptionally cold on this early winter day.
Diana wrapped herself up tight in her down jacket and suppressed the pity that flashed past her heart. Her eyes
were cold as she asked in a chilly tone, "What are you doing here?"
Kate, for her part, didn’t expect Diana to be so cold.
At that moment, she awkwardly pulled at the zipper on her jacket.
To her dismay, she was unable to pull it up properly. It made things even more awkward for her.
In the end, Kate was still Diana's biological mother.
Although she treated Diana horribly, Kate did share meals with Diana once, and even made Diana noodles on her
birthday.
Diana recalled the taste of the noodles, which inevitably brought back memories of Grandma, who had celebrated
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmher birthday and even counseled her on the hurts of her past.
Pain flashed past her heart and compassion overwhelmed her.
"Come on in." She took a side step and let Kate into the house.
Joy filled Kate's heart as she continued walking into the villa.
However, Diana stopped her just in time. "Let's just talk at the door.”
They were standing under a roof which could block out some of the wind and snow, and make Kate less cold than
she would be outside.
Diana knew Kate had come with an ulterior motive, and surely not because she missed her. It was probably...
because of James.
As she had expected, Kate pondered for a moment before speaking, "Your dad..."
Diana shook her head. "I don’t have a father."
Ever since he dug up her babies' grave, she had said that she would never acknowledge him as her father.
What's more, she had never called him her father. Why would she address him as that now?
Kate felt as though she had choked on something, and grumbled inwardly at Diana's pride from riding on Julian's
success. Diana looked radiant and glowing, and even more arrogant and haughty than before.
"I'm still your mother!" Kate puffed up her chest, in hopes that Diana would see for herself who she was.
At that, Diana said indifferently, "I know that."
