Chapter 519
Diana was stunned for a moment.
This was indeed not what she had anticipated!
Ryan smiled, his pitch–black, deep–set eyes showing no hint of scrutiny, calmly seeing through Diana.
With just one glance, Diana awkwardly lowered her head, avoiding his gaze!
This man was too intimidating!
Playing games of pretending to be weak and then seizing an opportunity was a big mistake in front of someone as perceptive as him…
Ryan leisurely extinguished his cigarette. His voice was hoarse, yet his aura remained penetrating. “Why do you think I’ve brought you here today?”
Diana’s heart was pounding, not out of anything else, but out of fear and nervousness.
Ryan looked down at her, methodically peeling away her thoughts, “Seeing Charlotte, did you think you could be a substitute?”
She gripped the hem of her dress tighter to control her trembling, but it was likely futile. She forced herself to look up at Ryan. “Then, Mr. Frost, can I?”
Ryan sneered, not providing a direct answer, only uttering two words, “Pull over.”
Gary detected the barely perceptible anger in his boss’s voice and slammed the brakes, pulling over to the
side of the road.
Ryan leaned towards Diana.
Her eyes trembled slightly. Just as she thought she might have a chance, Ryan’s large hand reached over her body and pushed open the door on her side.
The man withdrew, his voice cold and imperious. “Get out!”
“I…”
Diana was stunned!
Just moments ago, there had been a severe traffic jam on the highway due to an accident. Gary had exited onto a national road, and now she didn’t even know where she was!
Gary got out of the car and walked to the door. “Please, Miss West.”
A sense of humiliation almost overwhelmed Diana!
Her legs were weak as she got out of the car, clinging to her last bit of clarity, “This… this dress is Ms. Wilson’s, right? I’ll have it cleaned…”
“No need.” Ryan’s tone was indifferent, not even glancing at her/ “She has many dresses like this. She wouldn’t want one that’s been worn by someone else.”
She didn’t want him either.

How could she still want those discarded dresses?
Watching the Maybach drive off into the night, Diana’s face drained of color, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
If she had never gotten close, she wouldn’t have harbored such desires.
But once she believed it was possible, desire would uncontrollably flourish in her heart…
By the end of the dinner, I was feeling relaxed and limping towards the lounge.
Frank glanced down. “Are your shoes too small?”
“Yeah, I think I might have gotten a blister.”
I had rarely worn high heels in the past two years, and tonight I was wearing a new pair to match the dress, so it was inevitable.
Frank suddenly bent down, picking me up horizontally. With a deliberately stern face, he said, “You didn’t say anything even though your feet are hurting?”
“Put me down quickly!”
