Chapter 1126
Cecilia looked up, a mocking smile on her face. "Diana Winnington? Why are you here? Where's Julian?”
"He's right outside the door,” Diana said, while checking that the door had indeed been locked.
Julian was unable to enter from outside.
With that, she inched nearer to Cecilia and made clear her intentions. "Today, I come here representing Julian to
call off your engagement with him."
Diana's words deepened the smile on Cecilia's face.
However, the smile didn't reach her eyes. She grabbed a pillow next to her and flung it to Diana.
"You have no shame! What right do you have to speak to me like this? The last time I dragged you around in CoIlina
Villa, I should have pressed your head down in the toilet and taught you a good lesson!"
The pillow hit Diana right in her face. It then landed on the floor with a dull thud.

That would have awakened her from her stupor.
How could she...
How could she hit her child today?
How could she allow Betty to get hurt?
Diana's voice was light, but it sounded like a challenge in Cecilia's ears.
Smack!
Enraged, Cecilia charged forward and gave Diana a tight slap on her face.
Diana smiled.
"Hit me a few more times," she said as she looked at Cecilia. "If hitting me can help vent your anger, you can do
that. I won't retaliate."
Diana's words further infuriated Cecilia, who felt as if she had fallen into Diana's trap. "Do you want me to hit you so
you can cancel my engagement with Julian?”
"No," Diana said, shaking her head.
She came looking for Cecilia not just to call off the engagement, but also to make herself feel better. The only
person in this world who could make her feel the same pain she inflicted on Sean was Cecilia-and the latter did so
with great speed and eagerness.
Before Diana could explain herself, Cecilia shoved her aside. "Go away!"
Diana’s expression wasn't right. It unnerved Cecilia.
She pushed Diana away, and marched to the door. "I want to see Julian. I don't want to talk to a madwoman like
you."
Diana grabbed the door handle, refusing to let Cecilia open the door.
"What do you want to see Julian for? Could you call off the engagement by finding him?" she asked bluntly.
"How could it be that easy?” Cecilia glared at her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe didn't know why, but somehow, seeing Diana made her heart burn with anger. It was as if Diana was destined
to be her punching bag. After all, Diana's one-sided effort in pairing her with Julian had resulted in their situation
today.
Yes!
Diana owed it to Cecilia. Thus, Cecilia could do anything she wanted with Diana!
Cecilia drew closer to Diana and leaned into her ear, a smug smile spreading across her face.
"Seeing how much you want me to call off my engagement with Julian, I don’t want that so badly anymore."
"What about Noel? What are you and Noel going to do?” Diana shot back.
"You know about me and Noel?"
Cecilia was stunned for a moment, and her ears turned red. She was still a little girl at heart.
Diana had been too hasty in trying to get Julian and Cecilia together.
The apologetic expression on her face was genuine as she explained, "The looks exchanged between a man and
woman in love with each other is very different from that between an ordinary man and woman. I paid close
attention to how you and Noel interacted with each other at CoIlina Villa."
Diana tried to persuade Cecilia. "Julian's no longer the man you fancy. Why can't you just let him go?"
"Because I'm crazy," Cecilia said bluntly.
