My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 561 - 143: I Can Explain Everything



Diana had been staying at home for several days when one morning, she received a call from Carol.

Carol worried that Diana might be bored staying at home alone.

"Diana, I am too busy. Could you come to help me?"

Diana was not in a good mood. She was about to refuse, but just before she could reply, Carol added, "Please. I don't trust anyone else."

"Okay, fine."

She got dressed and went to the address Carol sent in her message.

When Diana arrived at the venue, the first thing that was very evident was Carol's love of pink. The decoration was almost entirely made up of different shades of pink, from the balloons and flowers to the tables and chairs.

In the middle of the room was a giant screen, which displayed a photo of Carol and Kyle.

Looking at the photo of them hugging each other, Diana was surprised to realize she had never actually seen them together.

Carol walked over to greet Diana. She hugged her and smiled happily.

"There you are!"

"What can I do for you?" Diana asked.

Carol thought for a while and said, "How about fixing those flowers?"

Diana knew that Carol had asked her to come because she worried about her. So, she obligingly went to fix the flowers, even though they were already perfectly arranged.

The engagement party was to be held tomorrow. Carol was devastated to hear that Daniel wouldn't be able to make it.

Diana smiled at her. "Look at my face, I'm basically Daniel anyway. You can imagine he is here."

Carol laughed. "Diana, I've meant to ask you, so here goes; will you be my bridesmaid for my wedding?"

Diana answered without hesitation, "Of course! You are my best friend."

"Fantastic!" Carol was brimming with joy.

"Where is Kyle, by the way?" Diana was curious. She hadn't seen Carol's fiancée yet.

"He is busy. He said I could arrange things in any way I like."

Personally, Diana thought it was better for a couple to prepare their engagement ceremony together. But everyone is different, and Carol's happiness was the most important thing.

It was already dark when Carol had finished preparing everything. Diana thought she must be tired and was about to go home.

"Diana, come to my place tonight."

"No, I'll give you some space. You go get a good sleep. Tomorrow will be a busy day."

Carol was still afraid that Diana would be sad on her own, so she insisted, "Diana, you can view it as my single last night. Come on."

"Okay." Diana nodded reluctantly.

When Diana woke up the next morning, the fashion designer in charge of creating Carol's outfit was busy putting the finishing touches on her dress. Carol wore a beautiful, white, shoulderless dress. She looked like a goddess.

As she was her only daughter, Mrs. Jefferson had hired the best designer money could buy.

Looking at her dearest daughter, Mrs. Jefferson felt sad.

Diana walked over and held her hand. "Mrs. Jefferson, we should be happy for Carol."

Mrs. Jefferson answered with tearing eyes, "Diana, I just feel sad. She is my little girl. And now, she is getting married!"

"How is Mr. Jefferson handling it?" Diana asked.

Mrs. Jefferson wiped her tears. "Oh him? If you think I'm bad, you should see him! He is hiding in his bedroom, sobbing!"

Diana sighed. Mr. Jefferson hadn't had children until he was over fifty years old. Carol had always been his little treasure. And now, she was going to leave him. He must feel terrible.

Carol was ready, and Kyle arrived right on time to pick her up.

Diana held Carol's hand and helped her in Kyle's car.

Despite how stunning Carol looked, Kyle still wasn't attracted by her; he only had eyes for Diana.

"Kyle, what are you doing?" Diana laughed as Kyle sat there. Wasn't he going to help Carol get into the car?

Finally, Kyle smiled and held Carol's hand.

Diana got in too and sat in the back seat together with Carol.

Kyle was feeling very torn. He observed Diana through the rear mirror. She was still as beautiful as the first time he saw her.

"Kyle, you have to take care of Carol. Otherwise, I will never forgive you!" Diana said sternly.

Kyle nodded, but his face was totally expressionless.

Looking at Diana, Kyle felt terrible. If she knew that he was only marrying Carol for personal gain, would she blame him? He had loved Diana since the moment they met, and he was desperate to tell her. But when it came to love versus money, he chose the money.

Kyle drove them to the hotel, where the ceremony would take place. As Carol and Kyle were children from elite families, it was not a simple engagement. Many of the guests were rich and powerful men.

Despite this, Diana didn't expect that she would meet Brian there; he didn't like that kind of event.

Hence Diana got quite a shock when she saw him standing in the crowd. And with no time to hide, he then came walking over to her!

Brian rushed over to Diana and tried to embrace her.

But thinking of the picture Antonette had sent, Diana wriggled away. "Brian, get off me!"

Brian seized her firmly and looked into her eyes. "Diana, I can explain."

"You don't have to explain. I am not your girlfriend anymore. You're free to do whatever you want with Vera. You like her, don't you?"

Brian was stunned. "Diana, I can explain everything. Will you please listen to me?"

"I know what I saw," Diana uttered coldly and walked away.

Clenching his fists, Brian swore under his breath. Diana was angrier than he had realized, but he was determined to get her back.

Far from the engagement festivities, Vera was in the hospital. She was holding a medical report in her hands, staring at it in shock. She checked it again and again, but it didn't change.

Thinking for a while, she took out her phone and called Brian. "Brian, do you have time today?"

"Yes, where are you. I will come to see you." Brian hurried off to see Vera; he was determined to make things clear.
