Chapter 728 A Press Conference
1/4
Diana had left a bedside lamp on. She was sleeping deeply, her steady breathing making the room feel cozy and warm.
Steven knew she was a heavy sleeper. He carefully slipped into bed, pulling the soft blanket over them both and pressing close to her.
Lying beside her, holding her warm, soft body, he knew he’d sleep well tonight.
No childhood nightmares would haunt him. None of that messy baggage would surface.
Steven realized that despite having only shared a bed twice, he was already addicted to her presence.
He was addicted to Diana’s pure and passionate nature.

Diana was still groggy- winter always made her sleep like the dead.

Luna was exasperated – she really appreciated how Diana. usually wasn’t boy–crazy. “Diana, Queenie’s pulled something disgusting. Check the news first, I’m heading over.”
Diana frowned slightly, remembering Queenie’s words about” giving her quite a show this morning.
Diana quickly clicked on the news notification.

Queenie looked worn out, her lengthy hair falling loosely around her shoulders, wearing a pink coat. Her tears made her look. utterly pitiful. What a perfect picture of a damsel in distress.
“My dear friends from the media and my beloved fans, I’ve called this press conference today to clarify something. I am not pregnant. This whole situation stems from my sister Diana’s grudge against our father for abandoning her. Ever since she returned to the Marsh family, she’s been plotting against me. This time, she’s gone too far, willing to destroy my reputation, ruin my life, and sabotage my upcoming film just to bring me down.
“She leaked false information about my pregnancy and collaborated with Mrs. Foliot to attack me. I was just a baby when all this happened. I had no say in what occurred. I understand it’s unfair that she was taken away by our father and abandoned. Growing up in the countryside has made her incredibly jealous.
