A Night To Remember novel (Diane and Norman) novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Where Have You Been

“Mmm! Mmm…” Diane struggled desperately, but the man held her in a vice-like grip with his arm and dragged her away. Since he was dragging her from behind, she couldn’t get a clear look at his face, but she could tell who he was from his scent.

It took only a minute or two before the man dragged her into the lounge next door and slammed the door shut. “Diane.” After he let go of her, he shoved her up against the wall and held his forearm to her neck, restraining her with all his might.

“You… You’re crazy…” Diane glared at Norman as her neck hurt a lot from being choked.

Norman’s eyes were bulging out of their sockets with visible red veins in them. Meanwhile, his teeth gnashed together as if he wanted to crush Diane between them. “Since when did you carry on with Christopher? Is that baby his? What the hell is your present relationship with him?”

“Is that any of your business? You’re already my ex-husband,” Diane asked scornfully in reply while staring at him. “Are you angry or jealous, Norman? You’re jealous of me because I’m doing better than you, aren’t you? In that case, I should tell you that the accident happened between us only because you were called away by Stella that night. You know as well what happened after that; we divorced, then I married him. Listen here—I’m married to him, so I’m not some mistress. Please show me some respect since I’m Mrs. Wayne now, do you understand me?” She suddenly found that her status as Mrs. Wayne was quite useful.

Disbelief flickered in Norman’s eyes as he stared into Diane’s. “Mrs. Wayne? Are you dreaming? Why would Christopher marry you?”

“Ha…” Diane chuckled. “Can’t we be destined for each other? If you don’t believe me, you can ask him. I don’t care whether you believe it or not; it’s sufficient as long as I know that myself anyway. My husband is still waiting for me, Mr. Adler. He’ll be angry if you do this.”

Then, she gave Norman’s arm a hard push. Just as he released his hold on her, he suddenly leaned forward and pressed his entire body against hers.

Diane was startled by this and frantically tried to fend Norman off with her hand, but he moved his face close to hers. “You b*tch! How dare you betray me and hook up with Christopher? I don’t believe this. Which part of you could he possibly take a fancy to? You’re nothing but an adulterous woman who’s no longer a virgin—”

“Shut up, Norman!” Furious, Diane swung her fists and beat Norman with all her might. Nonetheless, she was still a woman—how could she fight off a man who was towering with rage?

Norman stood unmoving before he lowered his head and kissed Diane on her neck, sinking his razor-sharp teeth into her skin. The bite hurt so much that she couldn’t help but scream, “You’re an *sshole, Norman!”

Norman relaxed his bite for a moment to glare at Diane with wickedly ferocious eyes. Then, as his mouth curved into a chillingly fiendish smile, he leaned over again and kissed her fiercely. How did the woman I dump become Christopher’s acquaintance? Hmph! I’ll let this woman know that she can only be subservient to me forever and never ride roughshod over me!

Christopher’s status and standing pricked Norman like a thorn in his flesh, not to mention the former’s looks and bearing which were far more outstanding than his. At the thought of this, Norman assaulted her with even greater strength.

A feeling of disgust surged up within Diane when Norman’s lips pressed against hers. Just then, they suddenly heard someone speaking outside the door. It was a colleague from the branch office, and she was talking about Christopher. “Finally, we met Christopher Wayne in person today…”

These words were irrelevant to their current situation, but since they were by the door, Norman was startled for a moment as a flicker of panic flashed across his eyes. Meanwhile, Diane seized this opportunity—she suddenly bent her head and bit into Norman’s wrist. At the same time, she lifted her foot and stamped it on Norman’s as hard as possible.
