Shining Bright After Rebirth (Diana and Steven) novel Chapter 838

Chapter 838 Help Me or Not?

The feeling of uncertainty gnawed at Steven, leaving him unsettled.

He glanced at Diana's busy figure in the kitchen, and his mind drifted back to the phone call he had overheard. Alexander was thrilled with her work.

And Diana? She was planning to treat Alexander to dinner.

Without realizing it, she had shifted her focus to another man.

Standing there, bathed in the glow of the crystal chandelier, Steven felt a mix of frustration and sadness.

He clenched his fists, letting out a hollow laugh. "Ha..."

Steven mused, "No matter what Alexander does, it doesn't change the fact that Diana is my wife.

But between us, apart from that marriage license, it feels like we have nothing left."

Diana prepared a simple dinner for him.

In truth, Steven wasn't picky about food.

She made him a light meal of scrambled eggs, braised cabbage with potatoes, and a plate of shrimp scampi—dishes she was good at and had made for him many times before.

Diana had everything ready in about forty minutes.

As she placed the dishes on the table, Steven didn't wait for her to call him over; he simply walked to the table and took a seat.

When Steven saw his favorite dishes laid out before him, a smile crept onto his face, lifting his spirits unexpectedly.

"Dig in! I'm going to take a shower," Diana said, making her way toward the stairs.

Steven's gaze lingered on her, a teasing glint in his eyes. "Sure! By the way, we haven't really talked about the... husband-and-wife thing yet..."

But before he could finish, Diana dashed out of the dining room, leaving him hanging.

He watched her flee, bursting into laughter.

Yet, as he chuckled, a frown creased his brow.

"Do I really look that desperate? Why is she so scared of me?"

His smile faded slightly as he thought, "There's nothing wrong with trying and risking embarrassment.
