Stevenâs voice was deep and smooth. âFll give you two million dollars. Investigate it and tell Diana the results. Diana only showed her design to me. Over the past two weeks, Iâve only seen Queenie twice. The last time was from a distance. She didnât have a chance to take my phone. I donât understand how the designs were stolen.â
Luna stared at him. He didnât seem to be lying.
Diana, however, had always believed Steven gave the designs to Queenie.
âBut from what I know about you, youâve always had a habit of giving Dianaâs things to Queenie. Those two years, though I wasnât with Diana, I was always protecting her. I saw her cry
for you, suffer because of you. I honestly wanted to kill you back then.â
Luna shot him a cold glare, her voice sharp, laced with barely concealed anger.
Steven felt a pang of helplessness.
âA few days ago,â he explained, âafter Diana finished the designs, we were at home. She sent me the sketches on her phone, and I saved them on mine. The only other possibility is that our phones were hacked.â
âI planned to launch the new designs, The Flowers, representing spring, summer, autumn, and winter after the competition

He felt this woman was relentless, more irritating than a swarm of flies.
Even Steven could misjudge people sometimes.
Luna frowned, noticing the weariness in his demeanor. âYou can investigate this yourself. If your phone was hacked, wouldnât you be able to tell?â
Stevenâs tech skills werenât bad either.
âI already checked,â he said, shaking his head. âI found nothing.â
âSo you suspect Dianaâs phone was hacked?â
Steven smiled faintly. âI never said that.â
Luna thought for a moment. She felt the truth needed to come. out for Dianaâs sake.
âIâll start investigating Queenie tomorrow. I want to see what tricks youâre trying to play.â
Luna still didnât believe Steven.
Steven was momentarily stunned but said nothing.
He knew Luna was unwilling to believe him, but the truth was very important to him.
Besides, whatever she uncovered, Diana would trust her.

Diana spent the night in the lab, tirelessly working on the

By morning, she emerged, exhausted.

Tom was waiting at the door. He frowned when he saw her pale face. âYou couldnât wait until today to do this? Skipping a good nightâs sleep makes you look terrible.â
Diana smiled wearily.
She couldnât sleep. After everything that happened yesterday, her mind wouldnât settle.
She wanted to break free from Stevenâs orbit, to find her own. refuge where she could finally breathe..
But escape felt impossible. She couldnât sleep when she went back. When she was agitated, she couldnât sleep as well, but she could work seriously, using work to numb herself.
She raised the three capsules she held. âTom, the medicine is ready. Iâll deliver it to Paige and the others.â
Tom grinned. âGive Ms. Suttonâs dose to me. Iâll take it to her.â
Diana raised an eyebrow. âWhy you?â
Tom rubbed the back of his neck, looking slightly bashful. âI think sheâs kind of cute.â
Diana blinked, catching the faint glimmer of affection in hist expression.

Tom shook his head. âNo, I just brought her breakfast in the hospital. Your husbandâs still there, too. Out of the goodness of my heart, I brought him breakfast as well.â.
âEvan is awake but still feverish. He was so fragile. He needed to exercise more.â
âEven Luna is healthier than him,â Tom muttered. âHer vitals are excellent. He, on the other hand, has fatty liver.â
Diana smirked at him. âWhat about my breakfast?â
She had come out ravenous.
Missing a meal made her very hungry.
Tom pulled a croissant out of his bag. âHere. Your favorite. I kept it warm in my bag for you.â
Diana wrinkled her nose. âCouldnât you use an insulated container? You just stuffed it in your pocket?â
âHey!â Tom teased. âI didnât want it to get cold. If it cools, your stomach wonât handle it well.â
âAnd for the record, this is a brandânew jacket, I promise. How can you be so disgusted about my kindness?â
Tom smiled indulgently, tapped her forehead, and took a thermos cup from the windowsill, pouring her a cup of water and handing it to her.
âDrink this first. Warm yourself up before eating.â

Diana accepted the cup with a smile. After taking a sip, she bit into the croissant, savoring its rich flavor.
It was delicious.
âTom, you always know what I need. This croissant is perfect.â
âOf course. Iâve been around you long enough to know all your habits.â
Diana beamed. âItâs nice to be spoiled by you, Tom.â
Tom grinned. âBy the way, Iâve already started recruiting students for the project you mentioned. Plenty of medical grad students are eager to join. Over the next few weeks, Iâll evaluate them and select the best candidates.â
âOnce weâre ready, you can oversee things. The medical school is thrilled about the AIâassisted therapy program and plans to fund us generously.â
Diana thought for a moment. âLetâs hold off until after Christmas. I want to take a break before the year ends.â
Tom nodded. âFair enough. Speaking of Christmas, since Sam and Sir Bishop wonât be around, why donât you join my family this year? Itâs only a few days away.â
Tom invited warmly.
Diana appreciated the invitation but declined with a smile. âIâm spending it with Luna and Nolan this year. You should focus on your family, Tom. As a doctor, youâre always working. You should spend
Chapter 874 Diana Will Trust Her some quality time with them.â

She gave him a knowing look. âAnd when you have a girlfriend someday, make sure you donât neglect her. A man who leaves his woman alone isnât a good man.â
Tom chuckled, his smile full of warmth. âDonât worry. When I find the one, sheâll be my whole world.â
He actually wanted to fall in love, too.
Unfortunately, the girl in front of him only regarded him as a brother.
âDiana,â he mused aloud, âmy future love will be my safe harbor. No matter how stormy it gets out there, sheâll be my peace. I will cherish her forever.â
Diana smiled back. âTom, I hope you find her soon.â
She handed him the capsule for Paige. âGo on. Deliver it to her.â
