Chapter 805 Steven's Fury
Luna replied, "I'll get on that investigation right away! How have you been? Enjoying yourself?"
Diana thought of Steven outside and felt a knot of tension in her stomach.
She hadn't expected to run into him, and now she couldn't shake him off.
"It's been okay. Just make sure to cover your tracks. Queenie is ruthless. If she catches even a hint of what you're doing, she'll suspect you in no time, and you could be in real danger.
"Queenie's underground company is filled with sharp minds. Give me a little more time, and I'll expose them all. Then you can continue your investigation."
Queenie had a real talent for winning people over, and she knew how to manipulate those around her.
In Diana's previous life, Joseph had helped Queenie achieve her ambitions, yet he ultimately faced a tragic fate. This time, Diana had reached out to Joseph early, oblivious to the fact that someone else had already fallen victim to Queenie's schemes.
She could save one person, but she couldn't save them all.
Luna chuckled, "Diana, I've been on her trail for quite some time. I know what I'm doing, so don't worry. Just enjoy yourself, and I'll call you as soon as I have any news."
"Okay!" Diana hung up, sitting on her bed, still reeling from the shock of Steven's revelation about Queenie.
It felt surreal, almost like a cruel joke.
A knock on the door startled her, and she turned to see Steven's tall figure standing in the doorway.
"Why haven't you left yet?" she asked, frowning.
Her cold tone made Steven squint slightly, a dangerous glint in his eyes.
He pushed the door open, stepped inside, and sat down at the edge of the bed.
Before Diana could even rise, he was already at her side.
"Diana, do you want to provoke me? Do you even realize how serious the consequences of angering me can be?" His voice was urgent, tinged with a fury that threatened to consume his reason.
Trapped beneath him, Diana felt her body tense up as she instinctively raised her hands to shield herself. Her large, beautiful eyes widened in panic. "Steven, get off me! Don't touch me!"
"Not touch you? Then tell me, who are you saving yourself for? Is it Alexander, or Cecil, or that college student?"
His voice rose, fury evident as he pressed closer, frustrated by how she always created distance between them.
Diana had never seen this feral side of Steven before. It was terrifying.
She pushed against him with all her strength. "Get off me! I'm saving myself for my future husband, certainly not for you!"
Those words struck deep, igniting Steven's rage.
She was still his wife, yet here she was, thinking about another man.
