Shining Bright After Rebirth (Diana and Steven) novel Chapter 837

Chapter 837 Darkness

Jean quickly shook her head, saying, "It's nothing. I just tried to chase after my mom, but she ignored me, and I got a bit upset, so I cried."

Amelie frowned, anger simmering beneath the surface as she thought, "That selfish old woman!" She said, "Heartless! Just like that, she can cut ties?"

Jean forced a smile but didn't respond. Inside, she was thinking, "You're the most heartless one here!"

Jean headed over to buy the shoes she had been eyeing earlier, plotting in her mind. "This woman thinks she can toy with my feelings? Just wait; I'll deal with her in my own time."

Amelie followed her, her mind racing with suspicion. "Why do I feel like Jean has changed? But she's so naive; she probably doesn't even notice anything."

Meanwhile, Diana had spent several hours at Lily's home, finally sealing a deal for a collaboration.

Lily had also mentioned avoiding sending Mark to prison, knowing full well that direct confrontation would be more devastating for him.

Diana respected her decision.

It was around eight in the evening when she and Luna finally headed home.

To her surprise, the villa was brightly lit, and Steven was already back.

As Diana stepped into the foyer, she changed her shoes and removed her down jacket, still holding the kiwi and cherries Lily had prepared for her.

She loved those little treats. Just as she set everything down, her phone rang—it was Alexander.

"Hey! Alexander!" Diana greeted cheerfully, her voice bright with happiness.

"Diana, with a voice like that, you must be in a good mood," he replied. "I really am! Did you need something?" she asked, genuinely curious.

"Actually, yes. The design sketches you sent over? Our team unanimously decided to make six of them limited editions. The others are already in production. Diana, your talent is simply incredible."

Diana let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Alexander. This call will definitely help me sleep better tonight."
