She was floored by what she was hearing. "What did you just say? How could you even think of going to her?"
Diana's face was a stormy mess, her eyes burning with anger. "I've teamed up with her now. I'm going to join forces with her to take Connor down. I'll see to it that he loses his position as CEO of Sartori Corporation."
Suzanne was beyond disbelief. "Have you lost your mind? How can you trust Claire? She's completely unstable. One minute she's all sweet, treating you like a pet, and the next, you're her punching bag. When she's done, you won't even know what hit you."
"I don't care!" Diana shot back. "I just want Connor to pay. I want him to regret ever leaving me."
Suzanne was really worried about Diana's state of mind. She couldn't believe that after steering clear of Claire for so long, Diana would willingly walk into her clutches. Teaming up with Claire was like asking a tiger for a favor.
Diana wasn't thinking straight, but she knew how dangerous Claire was. Claire was moody and ruthless. She could make Diana disappear without a trace.
Suzanne, taking on a rare stern tone, insisted, "You need to go to America tomorrow."
"I'm not going. If you force me, you'll never see me again."
Suzanne knew how extreme Diana could get. But Diana was caught up in her own whirlwind of emotions, unreachable by anyone.
Suzanne had always been protective, aware of her own limitations, which is why she had struck a deal with Connor early on. She thought she was providing Diana with a safety net, but now it seemed like it had backfired.
