Chapter 1110
Sean nodded at Diana's suggestion.
The mother-son pair walked together to the door, both wearing smiles as they stood at the entrance.
They waited for less than a minute, and it was evident that both of them were getting anxious.
So, Diana suggested, "How about we move to the elevator area? If Daddy comes up that way, well see him a bit
earlier."
Sean agreed, and they took a few steps toward the elevator. They watched the floor numbers on the elevator
display closely, as if they were participating in some race.
Suddenly, Sean raised his head and asked, "Mommy?"
"Yes?"
"Should we wake up Betty too, and wait for Daddy together?"
Before Diana could respond, Sean vetoed his own suggestion. "Never mind."

Sean truly couldn't wait to see Julian.
Diana understood her son's thoughts, and hugged him tightly. She kept her eyes on the elevator display, and
reassured him, "Just a bit longer. I'm sure he's almost here."
The floor number on the elevator display was rapidly rising. In a few more seconds, it would reach their floor.
Ding!
The elevator doors opened. Sean looked up excitedly, his usually cool face now showing traces of excitement as his
eyes gleamed.
"Dad-"
However, the person who stepped out of the elevator wasn't Julian.
Sean quickly swallowed his words and, along with it, his anticipation and excitement.
"Mommy..." Sean tightened his grip on Diana's hand. "Is Daddy not coming?"
"That's impossible!" Diana couldn't let Sean down at this point. She suppressed her rising anxiety, and said firmly,"
He's definitely coming."
She wasn't just speaking to her son, but also reassuring herself. "He just said he was already on Glenwood Avenue."
She patted Sean's head. "Wait here. I'll call Daddy, okay?"
Sean nodded. "Okay."
Diana dialed Julian's number again. Yet this time, Julian...
He didn't avoid the call because he wanted to or intentionally ignored it; he simply couldn’t answer.
He knew that Diana and Sean were eagerly anticipating his arrival, but something unexpected had happened on
Cecilia's end.
Cecilia had just spoken to Noel for a few moments when Sue had spotted him and called him away. Cecilia had tried
to keep him there, but Sue refused to cooperate.
In her panic, Cecilia had no choice but to call Julian for help.
"Noel hasn't responded to my confession yet. He didn't even react to anything I said!" she cried.
She knew she was being shameless, but right now, Julian was the only person she could rely on.

my mother! If something happens to him, there will be no chance for us. It'll be impossible to dissolve our
engagement!"
"I'm coming." Julian heaved a heavy sigh, and instructed the driver to turn around. "I’ll be there soon."
The driver couldn't believe his ears. He knew Julian had been waiting for a long time to see Diana and Sean.
The man had been secretly watching them from downstairs during the day, and sneaking upstairs occasionally.
Just now, he had got into the car excitedly. It was different from his usual calm and composed self. He didn't care
about maintaining his image as he urged the driver, "To Diana!"
And now, after finally arriving downstairs, he wanted to turn around again?
"I told you to turn around," Julian repeated, feeling incredibly frustrated.
"Sir, are you sure..." The driver hesitated. Julian had always been very kind to the staff, and he genuinely wanted to
see Julian happy. "You want me to turn around?"
"Yes," Julian said.
He closed his eyes, and leaned back against the seat.
