Chapter 1456
Laws governed this country, after all!
Diana gradually calmed down, and pushed him away. "I don't want you touching me."
Jim wasn't angry. He simply comforted her, saying, "Okay, I won't touch you."
He even lifted his arms, for fear that she might misunderstand him.
Seeing this, Diana realized that while Jim might harbor ill intentions toward her babies, at the very least, he had no
plans of harming her yet.
Diana, Betty, and her babies were safe until her babies were born. However, there was a possibility that they might
be stuck in this hotel until then.
Betty was still asleep. If she woke up, she might want to head out. When she realized that she couldn’t leave this
city and see Julian, she’d definitely be upset. She might even cry.

trying to figure out his ulterior motives.
"My mother..." she said again, thinking of Kate. She had mixed feelings. "She doesn't know me, but she's so fierce
to me. Does it have anything to do with your pills?”
"Yes," Jim said with a nod. "No matter how strong a mother's love is, it's nothing compared to the final pill my
mother concocted."
He completely disregarded the struggle and pain Diana was going through, and smiled almost gleefully. His
handsome face was no longer good-looking, but contorted with evil and sickening coldness.
"Kate can be considered the greatest supporter of my mother’s research."
What a joke!
Diana sneered at him, suppressing the urge to slap him hard.
"Does this supporter know that she's supporting your mother’s work?”
Jim shook his head. "Probably not. Kate was completely unaware when my mother gave her the pill."
Diana gasped.
"So..." She looked at him in disbelief. "You made my mother try your pill when she was completely unaware, and
treated her like a tool?! Don't insult the term good friend!"
Diana was furious. Fire burned in her eyes.
She clenched her fists and suppressed the fury burning inside her chest as she yelled, "Jim Hughes! You are
inhumane!"
She hated Kate for so long. As it turned out, a great tragedy was hidden behind all that. Kate had lived her whole
life under the control of another.
Jim didn't understand why Diana was so angry. "So what if she knew? She’d still forget her choice, and what she
supported."
Diana realized that Jim had his own strange logic.

looked at her right now, with her beautiful face and fair, dewy skin.
But not Jim.
He seemed to treat Diana like a puppet or a machine. He had no desire for her whatsoever, and his gaze remained
on her stomach.
More and more, Diana felt that she might have arrived at a wrong conclusion.
Jim said that she was a vessel.
She might just be a mere vessel-that’s all.
"After I give birth to the twins..." Her voice was hoarse, trembling with suppressed fear. "What will you do to me?"
Jim heard her question, and felt even more confused. "What can I do to you? You’ll be done once you’ve given
birth."
That meant that whatever happens to Diana after giving birth had nothing to do with him. If it were in the past,
Diana might feel excited, thinking that there was hope after giving birth.
But now, having understood the kind of person Jim was, she asked, 'You mean that after I give birth and you select
one of the babies, the other baby and I won’t receive even the most basic medical care. Is that it?"
"What else?" Jim asked, puzzled. "What more do you want me to do?"
