Shining Bright After Rebirth

Chapter 778 She’s Outplayed You

Reflecting on his connection with Diana, Steven felt a profound sense of helplessness taking root in his heart. From the outset, their marriage had been unfair to Diana.

Back then, he was convinced that Queenie was his savior, and the scales had tipped in her favor.

Queenie harbored a genuine dislike for him due to his blindness, yet there was an undeniable loyalty and sense of justice that made him willing to place a bit more trust in Queenie.

Diana, innocent in this game, was unwittingly drawn into a

snare.

He vividly recalled the two years spent with Diana, during which she had given her heart and soul.

He had selfishly taken advantage of her.

At that moment, a torrent of guilt, remorse, and a profound sense of indebtedness overwhelmed his chest, suffocating him. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

He suddenly realized that he was the perpetrator in this tale, clipping Diana’s wings and forcing her away.

The memory of Diana’s tears felt like sharp thorns scraping across his burning face.

He stood, agitated. His expression was marked by guilt.

He had let Diana down, squandering the true love she had offered him.

Diana’s tears and accusations, each drop like a knife, pierced his heart.

Diana slept peacefully through the night after her bath.

Steven, however, stayed awake until the wee hours, managing only two hours of sleep in the early morning.

In the hospital, Queenie’s anger led her to destroy the cabinet, only to end up paying for the damage and fainting from the

stress.

BEANOG

After Steven’s call, Queenie understood that Diana had quickly found Steven this time, and Steven hadn’t ordered those men to harm Diana, prompting him to question Queenie.

Queenie finally grasped that her plan had failed and that Steven knew she had sent people to violate Diana.

She had to accept that both Diana and Steven were beyond her

control.

Unable to accept this truth, she fainted again, waking the next. day to find Mario still by her side.

With her heart sinking, her eyes brimmed with unshed tears as she clutched at the last vestige of hope. “Mario, hasn’t Steven

shown up yet?”

Mario shook his head. “Ms. Marsh, Mr. Gellar hasn’t arrived. Perhaps he’s just busy…”

“Mario,” Queenie interrupted him with a bitter smile. “No need

to comfort me. I know he doesn’t want to come. Diana won’t tolerate my actions anymore. She’ll tell Steven everything.

“Steven no longer believes me.”

Mario, seeing her distress, hesitated to speak.

The idea of hypnotizing Steven had been floated long ago. Was she still betting on Steven’s love for her?

“Ms. Marsh, I’ll get you some food. What would you like?” Mario asked.

Hungry from skipping dinner last night, Queenie replied, “Get me some oatmeal. You choose the rest. I’m starving. Hurry back.”

Mario nodded. “Alright!”

He left in haste, looking slightly disheveled from a night of vigil by Queenie’s side. He always cared for her.

Queenie leaned weakly against the hospital bed. After a while, she reached for her phone on the nightstand, hesitated, and dialed a familiar number.

Queenie burst into tears. “Paula’s company is a shell. All the money I’ve earned over the years is gone. I need technical help now. You have to find a solution for me.”

“Queenie, I warned you not to take risks, but you wouldn’t listen. Paula has been in business for 30 years. I think she’s outplayed you.”
