Chapter 1244

Oliver had been keeping his eyes on Fanny all along.

He paused for a moment before finally walking out. He thought the same way as Diana, not wanting Fanny to misunderstand things between them just because of this phone call.

There wasn’t anything to hide in this phone call.

Diana’s husband was right next to her. With both of them around, they definitely had something important to discuss with him.

Fanny had already walked downstairs.

Oliver followed her, his heavy footsteps down the stairs making Fanny turn back.

He deliberately made his steps loud and heavy. He wanted her to look back.

When he saw Fanny looking back at him again, he felt satisfied knowing how much influence he had over her mood and her thoughts, seeing how his every move possessed her.

His footsteps became lighter.

Julian spoke.

“It’s like this. Our son Sean wants to join the training squad. You’re the in-charge right now, aren’t you? The mother of my son wants to ask you about the living conditions and training intensity of the squad.”

The mother of my son…

What a long-winded way of marking his territory. It was overflowing with pettiness on Julian’s part.

Even when he was asking for help, he still wanted to do something so petty-as if Oliver still had feelings for Diana.

Diana had met Oliver a while back, and even she felt that he had truly let go of his feelings for her.

When he mentioned Fanny, his eyes seemed different from before.

That look…

How should she put it?

Love?

Diana didn’t know whether that was an accurate description, because the love in Oliver’s eyes when he mentioned Fanny was slightly different from Julian’s eyes when he mentioned her.

There was love between her and Julian.

Was there love between Oliver and Fanny?

They were once siblings in name, after all.

Diana thought it wiser to focus on settling her own family affairs, instead of being concerned about other family’s affairs. Whatever it was, Julian was clearly being superfluous with his words. It made her feel rather awkward.

Diana glared at him, but it only made Julian say confidently,” Mother of my child, why are you glaring at me? Quick, come here. Talk to Oliver yourself. Sean is still waiting outside for your answer.”

If Diana didn’t take over the call, it would look suspicious of her. She had no choice but to take over the phone and start talking, hoping that Oliver would realize how petty Julian was being.

Oliver chuckled.

“Julian is still the same when it comes to you,” Oliver said, recalling what he saw on his rounds back when Julian was hospitalized and Diana had accompanied him.

Julian used the hospital’s uniform to mark his territory.

“He always succeeds in making you feel very awkward,” Oliver said to Diana, as he glanced at Fanny. “Have you ever considered divorcing him again and never being with him?”

Julian didn’t expect Oliver to be so forthright. It made his face turn red with fury.

Still, Diana was right. They needed Oliver’s help right now, hence why they were calling him to talk about Sean.

Julian didn’t dare to argue with Oliver in front of Diana, and could only fume in silence.

Diana glanced at Julian, finding him more and more like a child before another man who used to fancy her.

She smiled helplessly, and responded to Oliver’s teasing.

“I don’t have plans for that right now. If I ever do in the future, I’ll inform you and Fanny in advance so that you both can attend Julian and my divorce celebration.”

“A celebration?”
