Diana gazed at the distant horizon, her smile wild and unrestrained.

“Althea, Gale is getting what he deserves. You’ll give birth in two months, and I’ll come see you

then.”

In her past life, Gale married Penelope, and she could barely recall many things that happened afterward.

Althea never forgave Gale and ended up raising the child alone, living a happy life.

Looking at Cecil, Diana’s eyes shimmered with a smile. “Cecil, I’m leaving now.”

Cecil tightened his grip on the list, his gaze intense as he asked, “Diana, how do you know these people? It’s like you can predict everything beforehand.”

“Heh…” Diana laughed bitterly, her face filled with sadness. She had been reborn, and having witnessed many lives, it wasn’t surprising that she knew.

Seeing her pained smile, a deep sorrow filled Cecil’s heart.

Diana’s voice was ethereal yet colder than the night itself. “If I could foresee everything, I wouldn’t have come tonight knowing Queenie would set me up.

“Cecil, if you doubt me, you don’t have to work with me. I’ve helped you as much as I can. Goodbye.”

Cecil quickly caught up, blocking her way. “Diana, that’s not what I meant, I just think…”

“That I know everything and planned it all in advance?” Diana looked at him, her eyes gleaming as if with tears, yet dazzlingly bright.

Cecil’s breath hitched. In the darkness, her expression was

blurred, but he could feel the overwhelming sadness she carried.

Cecil stared blankly at her. The once carefree man now stood tall like a pine tree under the night sky.

Diana gazed deeply at him as well. With someone like Cecil, she never considered sharing her heart.

She could only interact with him as a mere acquaintance.

In the end, they might not even remain friends.

In truth, Cecil probably preferred women who looked like Queenie. In her previous life, Diana had seen how much Cecil doted on Queenie.

Cecil laughed in exasperation, his usual carefree demeanor returning. His tone carried a hint of reproach. “No, Diana, that’s not what I meant. I just feel sorry for you. Everywhere you go, Queenie tries to set you up. I don’t know how you knew these

things would happen, but I’m grateful you saved the Farley family.”

Diana’s gaze hardened slightly, then she smiled, glancing toward

the Foliot Mansion. “As long as you believe me.”

She suddenly whispered a few words in Cecil’s ear.

Cecil’s expression darkened instantly.

“Really?” Cecil was shocked.

Diana’s smile turned enigmatic. “You’ll find out tomorrow morning.”

“Let me take you home; it’s so late…”

“It’s not even nine yet, so it’s not late. I didn’t eat enough at the banquet, so I’ll have dinner with my brother at home. Luna will take me back,” Diana declined.

“Alright.” Cecil hadn’t expected her to refuse continuously, but he understood that there was no possibility of any relationship beyond friendship between them.

Diana seemed easy to get along with, but Cecil could sense her strong resistance to his advances.

Diana saw him only as an ally, not even as a friend. Realizing the nature of their relationship, Cecil felt a jolt in his heart.

With a faint smile, Diana saw Luna driving over and walked

quickly toward the car.

Just as she was about to get in, her hand was grabbed.

Diana saw that it was Steven. She frowned slightly. “What are you doing? Let go. Aren’t you worried your childhood sweetheart will get jealous, grabbing me like this in public? I don’t want to be tomorrow morning’s headline as the ‘homewrecker.“”
