A Night To Remember novel (Diane and Norman) novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Messing With Her on Purpose

On the other hand, Norman’s eyes were fixed on Diane from the moment he saw her. He eyed her from her long, flowing hair to her face, taking in her snowy skin on her neck and her shoulders. Then, his eyes shifted to her elegant, curvy figure before they trailed all the way down to her ankles which were slightly visible under her sweeping dress.

How long had it been since he last saw her body? Since when had she become so… enticing?

Stella caught the dreamy look on her husband’s face and a hint of resentment flickered past her eyes momentarily. She tightened her hold around his arm and said, “Diane’s climbing the social ranks now, Norman. She’s found someone a thousand times better than you, the planning director of NG.”

Norman was snapped out of his reverie by Stella’s words. He frowned and said, “A thousand times better? Who are you fooling around with this time?”

“Who says I’m fooling around with anyone?” Diane argued while she tried to hold in her hatred and anger for this moldy bun in front of her. She then added, “Even if I am fooling around, I don’t think it’s any of your business anymore, Mr. Wayne. After all, you’re my ex-husband.”

“You…”

Norman felt a stab in his heart when he heard how Diane addressed him, for he still couldn’t get used to the feeling of being insulted by Diane.

She had become such an unlikeable person from the complying and gentle woman that he once knew, so much that she’d even learned how to pierce him with her words.

He was oddly vexed by the thought of it. As he straightened his tie impatiently, he warned her, “I’m just worried that you’re too hungry—you might get swindled from putting anything in your mouth. Good men are hard to find these days.”

Then, he straightened up confidently at the thought of his glorious position as planning director. Finally, the stuffy feeling in his chest dissipated a little.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Wayne.”

Diane put on a small smirk. “Since it’s my second marriage, I’ll be sure to open my eyes and steer clear of assh*les.”

“Diane!”

Norman’s expression turned cold instantly, and the veins popped on his forehead.

“Goodbye, Mr. Wayne. Be careful too, Miss Mayfair—don’t hurt your back.”

Diane left quickly, not wanting to continue their bickering. However, she felt a little conflicted inside when she took a look at the hotel.

NG Enterprise had booked the entire rooftop venue for the night. As Diane stepped inside, the banquet hall was already packed with attendees. The men were in suits and leather shoes with expensive watches on their wrists, whereas the women wore beautiful dresses which swayed elegantly as they moved. Everyone was having a great time in the lively atmosphere.
