Chapter 1488

When Jim received the call, he glanced at Diana.

Quickly lowering the volume of the phone, he sidestepped Diana and walked into the bathroom, asking, "What's

going on?"

He was frowning as he asked the butler.

The butler hastily recounted today's events.

Despite that, Jim hadn't anticipated things to escalate this way when he returned home.

The front gate had been knocked down, leaving a large dent in the opposite wall. Julian was driving a heavily

modified and high-safety off-road vehicle.

It seemed like he came prepared.

Their friendship had already reached a point of no return. Jim saw no reason to be diplomatic.

He said, "Julian, you entrusted Diana to me. It isn’t that simple if you want her back now."

Jim would only let her go once she safely delivered the babies. If he lost Diana this time, he would never have the

chance to be close to the child inside her.

No matter what, Jim wouldn't let go.

Seeing Jim reveal his true colors, Julian didn't rush into a confrontation. There was no point in arguing at this

moment. He got out of the car, strolling towards the estate like he owned the place. Strangely, no one dared to

stop him.

In the past, a family holding onto old societal rules would have likely ejected him, possibly without knowing his fate.

However, no one dared to confront Julian. His imposing aura was too overwhelming. It even caused the butler to

subconsciously submit in his presence.

Simon, lurking in the shadows, glanced in their direction and chuckled. His gaze towards Julian was still filled with

discontent, and there was even a hint of familiar disdain.

When Julian looked in his direction, Simon left for elsewhere without a second thought. Soon, his figure disappeared

from Hughes Manor.

Julian was powerful, but this was Jim's territory. Moreover, Julian was alone. It seemed he didn't understand Jim

deeply enough.

These days, Simon had been investigating this area. He gained a more profound understanding of Jim.

Currently, Jim's first concern was the babies in Diana's belly. The second was his laboratory.

Simon speculated that with Julian causing a commotion in the Hughes family, Jim, being cautious and meticulous,

wouldn't just wait idly. It was highly likely that he would take Diana to the laboratory. After all, it was a good hiding

place.

Simon arrived at the laboratory, and indeed saw a car he hadn't seen before outside. He didn't rush in, but

observed from the entrance.

He confirmed that people were continuously unloading items from the car, including Betty's luggage. It was a

yellow rubber duck suitcase, a limited edition gift Simon had given her for her second birthday.

Julian had bought her many valuable suitcases after she returned to the Fulcher family. Betty, despite her fickle

nature, never replaced this particular one.

She held her uncle in a special place in her heart. Since she addressed him as uncle, he would be the one to protect

them in the end.

A wistful smile played on Simon's lips, and he touched his pocket. After confirming the contents were intact, he

breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't until the car drove away that Simon emerged from the shadows.

In front of the expansive laboratory, he moved like a phantom, seamlessly navigating through it. At each

checkpoint, he would pull out a card from his pocket, then wait for the stone door to open, lifting his hand to input

his fingerprint.

"Welcome, test subject."

After passing through five checkpoints, Simon smoothly reached Diana.

Meanwhile, Jim had invited Julian indoors.
