Diana was somewhat afraid.

She swallowed hard, abandoning the idea of confronting this man head-on and letting go of the desire to vent the

anger in her chest. She decided to compromise.

"Don't touch Betty.”

Jim ignored her.

For a cheeky little brat who dared to attack him, he had a hundred ways to deal with her—but the one that pleased

him the most was...

"I won't touch her.”

He flipped Diana's hands behind her back, gathered them in one place, freed up one hand, and took out a velvet

box from his pocket.

In this era, few people used such boxes to carry things, let alone carry them around.

However, this was Jim.

Diana didn't find it strange, and she was confident that the box contained medicine.

Sure enough...

He took out a black pill.

All the medicine he developed looked the same, but the ingredients were vastly different.

"Eat this, and she'll be obedient and sensible," Jim said,waving to Betty. "Come over here, and I'll let your mommy

go.”

Betty thought for a moment. Ignoring Diana’s shaking head, she bravely walked towards Jim. Then, she took the pill

from Jim's hand. She looked like she was about to put it in her mouth.

Diana was scared, and her eyes widened. Who knew what kind of medicine Jim was giving her daughter?!

She didn't know where her strength came from, but she broke through Jim's restraints and forcefully knocked the

pill out of Betty’s hand. She used too much force, and made Betty's hand turn red instantly. The pain almost made

Betty cry.

The atmosphere in the room was tense and strange. Surprisingly, Betty held back her tears.

The clever girl immediately wanted to pull Diana towards the door.

Betty was only a small child, but she had already sensed the danger from this man and instinctively

Betty was only a small child, but she had already sensed the danger from this man and instinctively understood the

perilous situation they were in.

"It's useless.”

Even if they ran out, they couldn't escape this hotel.

Diana pulled Betty behind her and looked at Jim, who was now visibly angry.

"You shouldn't have touched my medicine. Every pill is hard to come by."

Diana's actions made Jim feel the urge to cut off all the support he had given her.

"I'm sorry.” Diana's mindset was now different from Jim's and the average person's. For the sake of her daughter,

she still needed to ensure their current safety.

She lowered her head to Jim, and said, "I just don't want Betty to take it.”

Quickly, she touched her own stomach. "If Betty takes that medicine and becomes different, I'll be very worried and

anxious. It won't be good for the children in my belly. I...”

As soon as she mentioned the children in her belly, Jim noticeably calmed down a lot.

"Okay." He bent down, and picked up the fallen pill from the floor. “Then I won't give it to her.”

Diana quietly sighed in relief. Seeing that Jim didn't seem to intend to pursue Betty's actions, her heart was slightly

settled. She pulled Betty to sit on a sofa some distance away from Jim.

"I apologize for what happened just now," she apologized once again.

She looked sincere.

Jim himself didn't think there was anything he did to deserve Diana's hatred. He believed that Diana had come to

her senses, and would soon forgive him.

"My mom...” Diana hesitated, looking at Jim. "What's the deal with her and James?”

Since they couldn't leave this place, she decided to take this opportunity to clarify her issues of origin. Jim must

know a lot about the situation.
