Chapter 1093
After the water started flowing again, Diana would look at him in worship and exclaim, "Julian, you're amazing!"
The whole process was actually very simple.
Julian never let Diana do anything, which made it seem as though he knew how to do everything.
Julian savored the way she looked at him.
Each time, it made him feel as though he could be content being an ordinary handyman, gardener, or carpenter—
instead of the CEO of Fulcher Inc.
He used to help her tend the garden, and even made her a sofa with his own hands.
She would always be elated seeing him get his hands dirty fixing things.
Perhaps because such trivial matters often grated on one’s nerves, and he was always around to help her with
these things.

desires for each other grew...
His mind went back to those swelteringly hot summers, where such passion and joy were a mere touch away.
It felt like such a long time ago...
And now, he had to do something like fixing her bathtub in secret.
Julian smiled self-derisively.
Tears had welled up in his eyes as he looked back at the bathtub.
Meanwhile, Nina pushed the glass door open and showed Diana a bouquet of flowers. "Diana, does this look nice?"
It was a bouquet of carnations. It was wrapped up in black wrapping paper, and the flowers were bound together
simply with a piece of twine.
Grandma would love it.
Thinking of the old lady who doted on her so much, Diana turned her face away in sorrow. She feared Nina might
see her eyes turning red with unshed tears.
It was a pity. She had tried so hard, but she was unable to continue being Madam Fulcher's granddaughter-in-law.
She probably shouldn't flatter herself in the future.
Between her and Julian, even if she were to take 99 steps toward him, he wouldn’t stand in front of her.
She didn't understand what he was really thinking, but she could see it clearly from his actions: he didn't want to
see her.
Diana looked at the flowers, and suddenly asked Nina a question. "Vans said Julian went to the Jarvis residence for
dinner last night?"
Her question came quickly and out of the blue. Nina was busy picking flowers, and nodded without much thought.
"Yes, Vans said that Julian stayed there for quite a while. I think it was because Mrs. Jarvis brought Cecilia back
home, and Julian was there to see her."
The moment she said that, Nina covered her mouth with regret. She wished she could slap herself and her mouth.

The moment Nina looked up, she knew she had said the wrong thing.
Diana's expression gradually changed.
Sensing Nina looking at her, Diana immediately shook her head. "It’s alright. The twins are in the washroom. We
can say anything we want."
Whenever the twins were around, they had to consider the twins' feelings and watch their words. But if it was just
the two of them, they could always speak their minds.
"I don't really understand it myself," Nina said, running her fingers through her hair in frustration. "Julian probably
didn't go to see Cecilia because he was pursuing her. He might really have something to go to her for."
"Ugh, just listen to myself." Nina started getting angry with herself. "Not that he's pursuing her, he's just..."
Diana patted Nina's shoulders, trying to calm her friend down. "It's fine. Nothing will happen to me just because of
what you said.”
Julian looking eagerly for Cecilia while avoiding Diana was the truth, after all.
