Chapter 923 Don’t Worry
George sneered, his cold laughter sending chills down one’s spine. “Queenie, my father has been lying low here for so many years. He has his methods. What are you afraid of? Let’s just wait for his good news.”
A flash of anger crossed Queenie’s face. Thinking of his father made her even more furious. “Good news? What good news can your father possibly have? All he knows is women. He even showed up late for something so important today, and you still expect anything from him?”
That old bastard was so hateful.
Just the thought of him made Queenie boil with anger.
She thought, “Counting on that old fool is less reliable than counting on myself.”
George frowned and said, “You don’t need to concern yourself. with what my father is doing. I don’t know all the details either, but I do know it’s very secretive. The people behind him are incredibly powerful.
“There are secrets I don’t know, but I can tell you that Diana will absolutely not win.”
George’s gaze softened as he pinched her cheek.
This intimate gesture lifted Queenie’s mood slightly.
But she still felt humiliated and frustrated by today’s events.
Queenie picked up on the deeper meaning in his words and grabbed his arm. She asked, “George, what do you mean that your father has powerful backers?”
“Queenie, this must stay between us. Behind my father is a massive organization. They’ve been working for years to find a strategy to get the company listed. The capitalists backing him are extraordinarily wealthy. All you need to know is that the money you want will be there.”
His words instantly reassured Queenie.
Her anger dissipated as she gazed at George with a cold determination. “George, Diana’s new product launch must be stopped. As long as her new product doesn’t hit the market, she’ll be out of the game, and the Gellar Group will still be ours.
“George, I was too impatient earlier. I understand that these things need to be done step by step.”
George looked at her delicate and alluring face. Once she calmed down, she was indeed a smart woman. Behind her was a team of elite professionals managing her company effectively.
In these aspects, she had always excelled.
Over the past year, her personality had become even more. composed.
“Queenie, I know you’ve been wronged but trust me. Wait a little. longer, and my father will have good news for us.”
A glint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. “If we could kill Steven, we can kill Diana, too. Before she finds out who I am, I’ll deal with her.”
Queenie felt a surge of happiness at his words.
She took a deep breath and called for Mario to come in.
“Ms. Marsh, Mr. Gellar,” Mario entered and greeted respectfully.
He thought, “They are finally together.”
Mario, having waited for this day for years, felt a sense of relief and joy that surpassed anyone else’s.
Queenie asked, “Mario, where’s Eric? Why hasn’t he shown up these past few days?”
Mario frowned. “He hasn’t been to the company for several days and hasn’t called me either. I tried reaching him, but no one answered. I’m not sure where he is.”
Queenie furrowed her brows, thinking, “Could he be at the hospital, accompanying Gale for surgery?
Even if Gale’s legs are treated, he’s still useless.”

She scoffed, “Useless man. He claimed to help me, yet he runs. off when things get tough.”
She thought for a moment and looked at Mario. “Mario, go look for him. Where did he go?”
He was still useful to her. She wanted to use Eric to kill Diana.
Being betrayed by her own brother would surely devastate Diana.
Diana might claim indifference, but deep down, she cared.
