Shining Bright After Rebirth (Diana and Steven) novel Chapter 886

Chapter 886 Climb Higher

Steven insisted, "Diana, look at me."

Diana didn't like being too close to him. His presence was overwhelming, and facing him made her nervous.

She avoided his gaze, keeping her head down. Her entire body was tense, instinctively rejecting his touch.

Steven said, "What's wrong? Back then, when you took care of me, you even tried to seduce me. Now you're acting like a coward?"

Diana was pissed off. "Who seduced you? Steven, don't talk nonsense. At that time, you couldn't take care of yourself, and Evan was busy at work. You had no one to help, so I helped you clean up and took care of you. And now you say I was seducing you?

"Steven, do you have a conscience?"

Steven smirked, "A conscience? Where would I get that from? My mother ignored me, and my father wanted me dead. Only my grandparents protected me. If it weren't for them, I'd already be a corpse."

"Oh, is that so?" Diana sneered. "Then someone like you, so eager to stay alive, ends up giving his life away to others. Steven, I've never seen anyone as pathetic as you."

She pushed his hands away forcefully.

Steven, afraid of hurting her, didn't resist.

He sighed inwardly and decided to wait.

When that man showed up, things would become clear. He wouldn't need to explain.

Queenie had used that man to ruin the bond he once had with Diana.

Noticing her bad mood, Steven softened his tone. "Diana, lunch is still a while away. I'm going out for a bit. If you're bored, watch a movie."

Diana waved dismissively, absorbed in watching her company's livestream. She was overjoyed at the rising sales figures.

Year-end sales with a zero-return rate kept her spirits high.

With great designs and quality, she was making money.

She said, "Do whatever you want. You don't need to tell me."

Steven smiled helplessly.

Diana didn't even look at him, focusing on the sales and skus.

Steven left the house and went to the garage.

After getting into his car, he called Evan.

"Zora and her son have been arrested. They're at the police station now. But she hasn't implicated Queenie, only admitting to her crimes."

Steven said, "That's fine. Queenie still has her uses. Assign three reliable bodyguards to watch her and Mario closely. The man we're waiting for is coming back. We've already picked up signs from Andrew's communications."

Evan replied, "Understood, Mr. Gellar. But I've received word that Queenie is heading toward the Gellar Manor now."

Steven frowned. He couldn't let Queenie disrupt lunch today.

He replied, "Got it. Notify the overseas team to start the meeting."

He opened his laptop to prepare for a critical international meeting.

The Gellar Manor still had Queenie's people in it, so precautions were necessary.

Meanwhile, Diana watched the livestream for 20 minutes before switching to a popular variety show.
