Chapter 388
Thirdly, Diana thought that Julian had defended Kayla, which proved that Diana wasn’t aware that Julian had forced
Kayla to drink the remainder of the drugs she had once given Diana, and had long lost her fertility….
Kayla clenched her fist tightly under the table, sorely tempted to pinch herself to see if she was dreaming.
Now that Diana and Julian had a huge misunderstanding, this was her chance!
The fear in her disappeared, and was quickly replaced by excitement.
However, Kayla didn’t dare let her face show what she was feeling at the moment for fear that Diana would pick up
on it.
Kayla became more arrogant; she even tilted her chin upwards to look down at Diana and said haughtily,” I’ll be
waiting, then. Between you and Julian, let’s see who’s the greater one.”
The words were a tacit acknowledgment of Diana’s claim, as well as confirming the fact that Julian was still
protecting Kayla even if she had indeed tampered with the embryos Diana had once carried.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven though Diana had mentally prepared herself and even accepted the fact that she and her babies could never
compare to Kayla’s position in Julian’s heart, she still felt her heart bleed when facing Kayla’s hatefully smug face.
She felt as if someone had grabbed all her limbs and was pulling it in all directions, trying to tear her apart.
Everything hurt deeply.
Everything was screaming in pain.
Diana deflated slightly, obviously not that strong anymore.
Kayla knew which buttons to push and what to expose in Diana’s heart, so she said proudly, “So, my dear sister…
Let me ask you now. Am I the substitute, or are you?”
“I’m the one who’s a fool,” Diana muttered, struggling to control her voice. She didn’t want to show her vulnerable
side before Kayla, and even forced a smile on her face.
“Of course, I’m the one who’s your substitute. Julian loves you, and the entire Richburgh knows that to be the
truth.”
Kayla’s smile widened, and she even had the audacity to wink at Diana.
“Actually, it wasn’t only the drugging, you know? Even the reason for Luke to appear there and hound Julian… I was
involved in it too. Julian also knows all about it.”
Kayla covered her mouth and chuckled before adding, “Oh, right. I heard you miscarried after taking that blow for
Julian. But he still hasn’t done anything to me.”
Kayla said it so proudly, and Diana’s heart cried as she listened. She didn’t even care about how Kayla had
deliberately tried to imitate her face by putting on different makeup.
Rather, Diana felt as though someone had pulled her hair and struck her head with a heavy pole.
“Did you call me here just to talk about Julian?”
Diana tried to calm herself, reminding herself that she was in the office and it wasn’t time to get in trouble with
Kayla. Just like what Oliver had said, the first thing she needed to do was have her own career.
One must first make one’s self strong before having the capital and strength to achieve victory.
Diana was desperately holding herself back from marching up to Kayla and slamming the latter’s head onto the
table. She wanted to accumulate all this anger that raged in her and let it explode at the right moment, and make
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKayla’s life more miserable than death.
“Of course not,” Kayla said with a smile. “It’s just that recently, Julian sent me flowers. Thinking of you makes me
think of him, and I’d end up speaking too much. I’m sure you don’t mind that, right, Diana?”
“Of course not,” Diana lied through her teeth. “We’ve already divorced. I don’t even mind if you two got married
now.”
It would serve to help Diana accept the truth and reality.
“That’s true. You were a stand–in from the start, so I’m afraid you were already aware that you could never be with
him.”
“If there’s nothing else, Miss Winnington, I’ll take my leave,” Diana said, not wanting to listen to Kayla for another
minute.
She had every intention of turning around to leave, but now that Kayla knew there was big trouble in the
relationship between Diana and Julian, she changed her plans of tormenting Diana in the company and said, “Stop!”
Even though Kayla’s tone was rude and unkind, she was still Diana’s superior in the company. So, Diana obeyed and
asked, “What is it?”
Compared to Diana, Kayla looked like a clown with her makeup. Kayla couldn’t help the slight feeling of inferiority
creeping into her heart, however brief. She braced herself quickly and threw a document at Diana.
“You’re fired.”
