Shining Bright After Rebirth (Diana and Steven) novel Chapter 803

Chapter 803 Aren't We Married?

Queenie took a deep breath, feeling a tightness in her chest.

She pushed the thoughts aside as it wouldn't change anything.

Paula could never be her mother again.

If she knew that Queenie had brought her company to ruin, she wouldn't hold back from seeking revenge.

Closing her eyes, Queenie lay back on the sofa, waiting quietly for news.

...

In the meantime, Diana woke up to find it was already afternoon.

Glancing out the window, she saw it was dark. Winter nights fell early, often before six.

She stretched, feeling pleasantly refreshed from her nap.

Her long hair had tangled around her neck, making her uncomfortable. As she pulled her hair free, the relief was instant.

After washing up, she picked up her phone and noticed messages from Althea and Paige.

Paige: [Diana, thank you for dinner! It was so extravagant.]

Confused, Diana wondered when she had prepared dinner for them.

Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she rushed out of her room, noticing the living room lights were on.

There sat Steven, his tall figure relaxed on the sofa, a laptop open in front of him as he conducted a video meeting.

He exuded an air of focus and intensity, occasionally nodding or offering insightful comments.

People often said that a man engrossed in his work was the most attractive, and Diana had seen Steven like this many times before.

It was clear he had genuinely stayed to keep her company.

Not wanting to interrupt, she quietly settled into a different spot on the sofa.

His presence had turned their plans upside down.

A slight smile crept onto her lips as she asked lazily, "So, Mr. Gellar, are you planning to stay here tonight?"

Steven strolled over, taking a relaxed seat. He stretched out his long legs and replied, "Is it odd that I want to stay? Aren't we married? Are you trying to kick me out?"

His deep voice carried a teasing tone as if he were intentionally reminding her of their relationship.

Frustration bubbled up in Diana at his sudden boldness.

She moved closer to the dining table, her eyes widening in surprise at the spread before her. "Finding lobsters this season isn't easy."

Steven raised an eyebrow casually. "If you want them, you can have them anytime."

She took her seat, diving straight into the meal, choosing to ignore his comment. She didn't believe him anyway.

With a glint of determination, she savored the lobster.

Steven watched her, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as he relaxed into the moment.

Diana stole a glance at him, noting how rarely she saw him so laid-back.
