Chapter 269 Humiliation
Frank scanned the impressive office and burst into laughter. He fixed Diana with a mocking gaze. âDiana, you hail from the countryside, yet this office is quite the sight. After you latched onto Mr. Watson, youâve become quite the respectable figure.â
âWhatâs so wrong with coming from the countryside? Frankly, we were all farmers. You look down on farmers, yet you eat vegetables. You think youâre some high and mighty city dweller, so why donât you eat cement bricks instead of the vegetables farmers grow?â Diana shot back.
Her distaste for his arrogant attitude was palpable.
Her words left Frank struggling for air.
He narrowed his eyes at her, coldly assessing. In truth, if Diana werenât so malicious, he might have appreciated having such a beautiful sister.
Among the siblings, they resembled each other the most.
But Diana bore no likeness to their father, none at all.
âDiana, itâs all your fault. Youâve brought nothing but turmoil to our family. You shouldnât have come back. Queenie will always be our little princess. Youâre nothing,â Frank spat.
His anger surged as he recalled Paulaâs demand from the night before to exile him. He laid all the blame squarely on Dianaâs shoulders.

A sharp pain pierced Dianaâs heart. She smiled bitterly, âYes, I find it repulsive to share the same blood with you. Itâs utterly helpless for me, being siblings with such despicable creatures like you.â
âDiana, youâre the malicious one, yet you call me vile? Iâm ashamed to be your brother.â
Frankâs thoughts turned to how Queenie could have married Steven long ago if not for Diana.
âFrank, Iâve severed ties with your family. Why do your people keep coming after me?â Diana asked.
She was exasperated and thought, âForget it! Why bother with a man who was doomed?â
Frankâs anger flared at her helpless expression. âIf you want to leave, then leave for good. Donât hang around disturbing my family and our lives.
âIf it werenât for you, Steven and Queenie would have been happy together long ago. Itâs all because of youâ¦â
âBecause of me? Frank, your brain is full of crap. When they were old enough to marry, it was Queenie who ran off after Stevenâs accident, yet you pin it all on me. Donât forget, you were the one who pushed me into the spotlight first.
âYou bastards, why do you think what you do is right? Why should I be the one constantly bullied?â
Frank was taken aback by her words. A moment of clarity broke through his anger. âBut we told you when you got married.

him. It was you who refusedâ¦â
âIâve already signed a divorce agreement and a letter of
severance with your family. Stay as far away from me as possible and never show your face in front of me again.â Diana calmly announced, and her eyes were devoid of warmth.
Why was she wasting her breath on a dead man?
Frank choked on his anger, shouting, âThen why havenât you finalized the divorce?â
âItâs Steven who doesnât want to go through with it. Instead of coming here to humiliate me, why donât you persuade Steven to finalize the divorce formalities with me? I canât do it alone.â
She wanted nothing more to do with them.
Frank was convinced that she was lying. âDiana, youâre the one who doesnât want the divorce. Why are you blaming Steven?â
Diana took a deep breath.
She yelled, âGet out!â
âDiana, your life is in shambles. What else are you capable of other than hitting on men at every turn?â
His anger boiled over at her audacity to dismiss him.
âGet out!! Youâre a dying man; I wonât waste my time on you.â Diana said, settling back into her chair.
His anger surged. âDiana, are you cursing me?â

Diana sneered, âYou donât need me to curse you. Elsic is your death warrant. Congratulations on your upcoming marriage, by the way. Thatâs just great. Congratulations!â
Her peculiar smile only stoked his fury further. âJust you wait, Diana. Iâm going to wreck your reputation. Iâll make last nightâs scandal a hundred, no, a thousand times worse. Youâll become an outcast, someone everyone despises.â
Diana knew what he was planning.
âItâs fine. Youâre almost dead anyway; do whatever you want to
me.â
âYou!â Frank stormed out in a fit of rage.
Diana leaned back. The pain in her heart was so intense that it felt like she couldnât breathe.
She closed her eyes, seeking solace in the darkness, unaware of anyone approaching.
Suddenly, she was yanked into someoneâs embrace.
Her eyes flew open in shock to meet a pair of scarlet ey was startled.
