Chapter 839 George
1/4
âGive me one good reason to help you,â Steven replied, his tone devoid of warmth.
Queenie said, âI⦠saved your life!â
Her voice lacked conviction, almost as if she were trying to convince herself.
With a cold smirk, Steven hung up the phone, plunging the living room into darkness as he turned off the lights and headed upstairs to rest.
In her room, Queenie stared at the phone, tears streaming down her cheeks.
It was clear that Steven had completely cut her off.
Fury bubbled up inside her. âWhy didnât that fire take him out? Why didnât that car crash finish the job?
How come heâs been saved twice by Diana? That bastard, how does he keep getting so lucky? And that womanâhow does she always end up rescuing him?â
âAhhhâ¦â Queenie screamed in frustration, feeling the weight of her despair crash down on her.
Taking a deep breath, she picked up her phone and dialed a
Chapter 839 George number.
âQueenie, why are you calling me again?â Georgeâs voice was laced with irritation.

Queenie was already fuming, but Georgeâs words only stoked the fire. âGeorge, didnât you say youâd found someone to seduce Steven? Whatâs taking so long? He doesnât trust me anymore! and heâs already repaid his debt to me for saving his life. Heâs no longer looking out for me. You need to come back and find a way to take him out. The entire Gellar family could be ours. Besides, Uncle is backing you up from the shadows.â
âQueenie, I know youâre struggling and feeling down, but this isnât the right moment. Steven has several big projects going on overseas, and theyâre all running smoothly. We need to wait until he cashes in; thatâll be our golden opportunity. Once weâre ready, Iâll have people lined up to take him down, and then I can marry you without a hitch.
âJust bear with me a little longer. Since he doesnât trust you anymore, go after his biggest rival. You donât need me to tell you how to handle that.â
Fury sparked in Queenieâs eyes. âIâm doing all of this for you! Do you really intend to marry me?â That was her biggest insecurity. No matter how many times George promised, she couldnât shake the feeling of uncertainty.
âQueenie, youâre the love of my life. Who else would I marry? I swear Iâll make it happen. Just get some rest. Iâll take care of everything else; Iâve got a crucial deal to finalize right now.â

With that, he hung up, leaving her in silence.
Queenie squeezed her eyes shut, overwhelmed by a wave of despair.
She felt utterly alone, and all of it stemmed from Dianaâs meddling.

Time flew, and soon, it was the day of the fashion designer competition.
Diana woke up early, bustling around the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
When Steven came downstairs, he was greeted by the sight of a steaming plate of pasta topped with a perfectly fried egg.
As he sat down, he looked at her and asked, âAfter today, Iâll have a lot freer time. With Christmas around the corner, is there anything you want to buy?â
Diana shook her head. âNot really. Iâm not spending Christmas with you, so if you want something, go ahead and get it yourself.â
Steven frowned, his brow furrowing as he studied her serious expression. He tightened his grip on the fork. âNot spending Christmas with me? Who are you celebrating with? Your grandfather isnât back yet, is he?â

Diana replied, âIâll be spending it with Luna. Sheâs an orphan, and since my grandfather is away this year, weâre going to celebrate together.â
In her mind, she thought, âAs for Steven, he can do whatever he likes. Itâs really none of my business.
And about his mother⦠well, if he doesnât care, why should I?â
