Chapter 625
Diana burst out laughing. "So Grandma's been a big fat liar since a long time ago!"
"Yeah, she really is a big fat liar."
She told them she'd live to be a hundred years old.
Yet, she left them so suddenly.
Both of them remained silent for a long while.
It was only until daybreak that Diana finally said, "I'll go and keep Grandma’s ashes. We’ll bury her with Grandpa after you're discharged and recovered."
Since she didn’t want a funeral, the two of them would send her off quietly.
"Okay." Julian nodded, "If you feel tired, let Noel handle it."
"No need," Diana insisted, "I want to do it myself."
This was one of the few things that she could do for Grandma.
Julian knew what was in her heart, and understood that the guilt she was feeling needed time to dissipate. "After going to the crematorium, remember to have your dinner on time."
"Okay, I will."
When she returned from the task, it was obvious that Diana had cried up a storm.
Her eyes were even more swollen than they were last night.
It was highly likely that she didn't have any appetite for dinner.
The sight of Diana's sorrowful figure made Julian so anxious that he threatened to remove his IV drip unless he saw her eat something.
A day passed amidst the emotional turmoil.
After eating something, Diana felt her energy return to her.
Thankfully, the VIP ward was large enough to fit both beds.
However, Diana found it too exaggerated.
When she stood along the corridor just now, she could feel the envious stares from all the nurses. She could even hear them whispering amongst themselves about how she was Mrs. Fulcher, the one whom Mr. Fulcher doted to the heavens!
What Mrs. Fulcher? She was currently ex-Mrs. Fulcher.
Still, she didn’t want to correct them. It would seem so petty of her.
She could only flee back to the ward with her head bowed down low, deeply embarrassed.
She looked at Noel and Julian, who were making things even more exaggerated.
The moment she pushed the door and walked through it, she heard Julian say, "Yes, I want it in pink."
She looked up...and was utterly stunned.
