Chapter 903 He Gave You Everything
Olivia frowned. “Diana, before you came back, I didn’t check your fortune, but I did a reading for your love life: Everything pointed to things being great. So why are you suddenly getting a divorce? I just don’t get it.’
Diana wanted to say that maybe even Olivia could get it wrong sometimes.
But deep down, she knew Olivia wasn’t the type to make
mistakes. With a calm smile, she replied, “Olivia, maybe it’s just not the right time yet.”
Olivia narrowed her eyes, clearly not convinced, but chose to keep her thoughts to herself.
The next morning, Olivia drove Diana to the Courthouse.
When they arrived, Olivia parked the car and retrieved a wheelchair, helping Diana into it before pushing her toward the entrance.
“Wait,” Diana said suddenly. “Let’s double–check everything.”
She meticulously went through the documents. “Alright, all here. The divorce agreement is with Steven. Since we don’t have any property disputes, it should be pretty simple.” away? Seriously?”
Diana smiled faintly and turned to her friend. “Olivia, I don’t want anything from him. I just want a clean break. No more ties and entanglements. He lives his life, and I live mine. That’s it.”
Olivia sighed, throwing her hands up. “Fine, fine. You’re a self–made queen, after all. Let’s go get that freedom you’re so set on.
“Diana, you’re a star. Once you shake off all this mess, you’re going to shine brighter than ever.”
But Diana didn’t laugh. For some reason, her smile just wouldn’t come.
Not far away, a man sat in a wheelchair, bundled up in layers. His eyes stayed locked on her back, a storm of pain swirling in them.
He spoke in a low voice, “Is everything ready?”
The man beside him nodded. “Everything’s in place.”
******
Inside the hall, Diana was caught off guard.
Steven was standing. His forehead and chest were bandaged, but he was on his feel.
Beside him, Queenie clung to his arm, her movements overly intimate.
“Olivia, I can’t even stand. How is he walking? I’m pretty sure his injuries were worse than mine.”
Olivia scoffed. “Please, he only fractured his arm. The rest? Barely a scratch.”
Diana’s frown deepened. “That doesn’t add up. I’m a doctor. I know what I saw. He passed out on the spot. There’s no way his injuries were less severe than mine.”
As Diana tried to make sense of it, Steven’s icy voice sliced. through the air. “Diana, you’re late. Do you even know what punctuality means?”
That familiar yet distant tone sent a chill down her spine.
In her mind, another voice from her past echoed, booming like thunder.
“Diana, just go die!”
The voice she heard today was identical.
Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at Steven, unease prickling at her senses.
Something was terribly wrong.
Back then, when Steven had pushed her, his voice and eyes had felt just as cold and unfamiliar as they did now.
Queenie smirked, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “Diana, don’t tell me you’re having second thoughts about divorcing Steven?”
Before Diana could respond, Steven’s voice rang out, sharp with anger. “Diana, you’re signing those papers today whether you want to or not. The only woman I care about is Queenie.”
He wrapped his good arm around Queenie, pulling, her close as if to drive the point home.
The sight stung. Diana felt a sharp ache in her chest as fears pricked her eyes.
