Chapter 725 Second Chance
1/5
She spent the entire afternoon working on her design sketches.
This time, she completed a total of ten sketches.
She adored every one of them.
Diana carefully placed all the sketches in a nearby drawer.
Looking up, she noticed that it was already dark outside.
She was also feeling hungry. Since Steven wasnât coming home for dinner, she prepared a simple meal for herself.
A bowl of pumpkin soup and a plate of spaghetti was all she had.
After finishing her meal, she cleaned up the dishes. She was used to living alone and didnât feel lonely when she was by herself.
With nothing to do in the evening, Diana returned to her room and reviewed her foreign languages. She was fluent in five languages but made sure to review and learn new things regularly.
She had an excellent memory, but she knew that constant practice was essential to keep her skills sharp.
By 10 p.m., Diana finally put away all her work, and throughout

those few hours, Steven hadnât crossed her mind once.

She knew that she had finally managed to kick that man out of her heart, bit by bit.
Of course, sometimes it still hurt when she thought about him.
Sometimes, tears would just stream down her face.
It was really hurt.
He had been all the excitement of her youth!
She had loved Steven so sincerely and passionately.
When she found out she could marry him, she had daydreamed endlessly about their future.
Sheâd thought it wouldnât matter that he was aloof and quiet. She could just do enough talking for the both of them.
But she was wrong. He simply didnât love her.
He had already given his heart to another woman long before she came along. She shouldnât have deluded herself into thinking she could win him over.
She had believed her love could be like the warm spring rain, slowly seeping into his world and melting the ice around his heart.
But reality had hit her like a slap in the face, leaving her dazed

and confused.
3/5
She had struggled on the edge of love and despair, like a moth drawn to a flame, knowing it would be her destruction, yet still she couldnât help herself.
This time, she wouldnât dare. Fate wouldnât give her a second chance.
Diana put down her book, went to the bathroom, and after showering, she slipped into bed and fell asleep.
Steven was out drinking with Owen, their good friend Yanson, and a few other buddies tonight.
Steven wasnât drinking much. These kinds of business gatherings were a regular occurrence for him.
But he kept checking his phone countless times. There were no messages from Diana.
Evan, who was Stevenâs designated driver for the night as he couldnât drink, sat playing with his phone.
He deliberately avoided the trending news about Queenie, but when he opened his browser, it was all about Queenie.
He was disgusted by Queenie, so he opened his chat window and started messaging Luna.

[Luna, when is this trending topic about Queenie going to die down? Itâs making me sick.]
Luna: [Isnât she your bossâ first love? Whatâs there to be sick about?]
Evan: [First love? Sheâs nothing of the sort.]
4/5
Evan and Luna were wrapped up in their backâandâforth chat, utterly oblivious to their surroundings.
Owen and Yanson were bottomless in their animated
conversation.
Across from them, several trust fund kids sat with women in their laps, drinking and getting cozy.
Yanson took a sip of his red wine and glanced at Steven sitting beside him.
Steven sat there radiating negative energy, his posture naturally straight but his handsome face dark as he stared down at his phone.
Yanson and Owen were cut from the same cloth â trust fund playboys who loved the good life.
Yet when it came to business, they could switch to being mature and responsible.
Today, instead of his usual suit, Yanson wore a casual beige sweater. He lounged back in his chair with an air of easy

confidence and grace, every gesture screaming blue blood.
5/5
Yanson pointed at Steven and asked Owen with an amused smile, âWhatâs eating him? Trouble in paradise with Queenie? Heâs been moping since he got here, constantly checking his phone.â
