Julian's heart melted at once. The troubled and cold look in his eyes faded.

With that, he glanced at the rearview mirror and saw that Jim was really following behind them.

Julian ignored him.

Instead, he focused his attention on Diana seated next to him, asking her in a low voice that was starkly different from how he spoke just now, "Who told you about your family background?"

As he had expected, Diana said, "Professor Hughes."
