Chapter 788 Wait Another Year
1/4
Diana looked at Stevenâs sorrowful expression, her lips pressed together. It was one of those rare moments of calm between them since she had left.
Yet, the shadow of Queenie was everywhere.
Perhaps they really could never go back.
Still, he selfishly wanted to wait another year.
In a year, things would be clearer, and their relationship might improve.
Diana sat on the sofa, cradling the baby.
Steven took a seat opposite her.
âAre you not busy today?â she asked.
âIâve wrapped up most of my work,â he replied. âI thought Iâd take some time to spend with you.â
Diana shook her head. âYou donât have to. Iâm doing fine on my
own.â
The moment had passed; she had once hoped for Stevenâs company, but he had never been there for her.
As she gazed at the baby, watching him smile, she couldnât help .but smile back.

âLittle Harlan, youâre so adorable! Give me another smile, come on.â
Steven couldnât help but smile at her playful demeanor. Just then, his phone buzzed. He glanced down to see it was Queenie calling.
Remembering the man she was with, he stood up to take the call outside.
Diana recognized it was Queenie and felt a wave of calm wash over her.
Outside, Steven answered, âHello?â
âHey, Steven. Thereâs a gala tomorrow night. Can you come with me?â Queenie asked sweetly.
Steven declined. âI have a business trip tomorrow. I canât make it.â
âSteven, Iâm in the hospitalâ¦â
âTake care of yourself. After all, a miscarriage can take a toll on your health,â he said coldly.
âWhat do you mean? You donât believe me?â Queenieâs voice turned panicked.
âDidnât the doctor tell me when I brought you in? Youâre pregnant, but it seems you need a thorough checkâup. Donât spread anything to others.â
He hung up without another word.

Queenie was about to be discharged from the hospital and had planned to call Steven to test his reaction, but to her surprise, he already knew about her pregnancy.
Still, he hadnât confronted her about it, had he? He was only upset because sheâd been seeing other men.
Mario noticed Queenie standing motionless and asked, âMs. Marsh, are we heading back now?â
Glaring at him, she demanded, âWhereâs Steven right now?â
Mario shook his head. âMs. Marsh, I have no idea where he is.â
Furious, she realized that the two men sheâd sent to teach Diana. a lesson had already been caught.
Fortunately, she had been cautious and left no evidence linking back to her.
âMario, inform your master that Steven no longer trusts me. Heâll need to find another way,â Queenie snapped before leaving the hospital room.

Watching her retreating figure, Mario sighed faintly, thinking to himself, âShe really played her winning hand into ruins.â Then he replied, âUnderstood.â
Queenie walked towards the elevator..
She wrapped herself tightly in her coat and headed directly to the underground parking garage.
