Chapter 867 Retaliation
1/6
Sam stood in the snow, begging for a doctor. Diana happened to pass by, introduced herself as a doctor, and successfully saved Samâs wife and child. Both mother and baby were safe.
This incident quickly spread online, making headlines and overshadowing Queenieâs recent award buzz.
Queenie, who had orchestrated a car accident to prevent Diana from taking Paige to the hospital, hadnât anticipated that her actions would backfire.
Instead of stopping Diana, the event catapulted her into fame as the most admired doctor.
At that moment, Queenie was lying in a hospital bed, weakened by the icy seawater and receiving IV fluids.
Steven addressed Diana, his tone heavy. âDiana, thereâs no need for further investigation. This was Queenieâs doing. She also orchestrated the attack on Ms. Sutton. Evan stumbled upon her accomplices in the parking garage. They panicked, kidnapped him, and tried to silence him for good.â
Diana drew in a sharp breath. The only reason Queenie dared to commit such blatant acts of kidnapping and murder was because Steven indulged her without limits.
She let out a cold laugh. âSo? Are you telling me this because you want Paige to forgive Queenieâs crimes?â

what he said, Diana wouldnât believe him.

âDiana, Iâve already explained about the design plans. I never gave them to her. As for todayâs events, I wonât let her off easily. But itâs not as simple as weâd like. She has powerful backers. Besides, she was with me at the time and can deny everything. The men who took Evan will bear all the blame.â
Diana stared at him in silence.
âBut the suffering Paige enduredâ¦â she thought.
Before she could speak, Stevenâs voice dropped. âI already made her experience what it feels like to be tossed into the sea. The pain Paige went throughâ¦I made Queenie go through it too.â
Diana said nothing. She turned to Luna. âLuna, you just took your medication. Rest for a bit.â
Luna nodded. âOkay, Diana. Donât worry about me, Iâm fine.â
âGood.â Diana left the room.
Steven followed her out, stopping her in an empty corridor.
She frowned as he blocked her path. âMr. Gellar, do you still have something to say?â
âIs Ms. Sutton alright?â Steven asked.
Diana shook her head. âSheâs fine. Sheâs sick from the cold and on an IV.â
Steven relaxed slightly. That vile woman, Queenie, truly had no

limits.
The two stood in awkward silence until Steven spoke first.
âDianaâ¦â he said.
But her frosty gaze made him swallow his words.
âI have things to do,â Diana said.
âIâll wait for you to go back together,â Steven offered.
Diana shook her head. âThereâs no needâ¦â

She almost added that she would never return to his place, but the memory of Tobiasâ warm smile stopped her.
âYou go on ahead. Donât wait for me. As for Queenie, I know youâre shielding her. I canât touch her now, but one day, Iâll watch both of you fall into hell together.â
She believed the wicked always faced their reckoning.
Diana didnât believe someone as malicious as Queenie would live a long and happy life.
She raised a clenched fist toward Steven.
Steven couldnât help but chuckle, but a deep sadness lingered in his heart.
The girl who once looked at him with nothing but love, the one who had risked her life to save him, now wished him dead.

Diana headed to the maternity ward to check on Carolyn.
4/6
Carolyn was still asleep, the baby lying peacefully by her side.
Before Diana left, she fed the baby formula. The little one dozed off contentedly.
As Diana reached the wardâs doorway, a figure suddenly lunged at her.
The harsh sound of the slap echoed as Diana received a hard slap on the face.
Dianaâs gaze darkened as she stared at Janet.
Janetâs eyes burned with rage. âYou wretched woman! How dare you ruin my plans! Iâll kill you!â
Diana pressed her tongue against the inside of her cheek, her expression icy.
She stepped closer. Janet flinched at the cold fury in her eyes. âDonât⦠donât come near me,â Janet stammered.
Diana moved swiftly.
She struck Janetâs face and followed with a sharp kick to her stomach.
Janet collapsed to the ground in a heap.
âAhâ¦â Janet cried out in pain.
Dianaâs anger was a storm as she grabbed Janet by the collar.

Her voice was a furious roar. âJanet, you dare say I ruined your plans?!
âYou drugged Carolyn, left her unconscious in the snow, and wanted her and her baby dead. Youâre despicable!â
âShut up! You have no proof it was me!â
Dianaâs eyes were like daggers. âYour own words gave you away. Your plan was to ensure Carolyn and her baby wouldnât survive.
âYouâre vile!â
Janet sneered though her voice wavered. âIf not for you meddling, my plan wouldâve worked. That hick from the countryside didnât deserve to marry Sam. She got lucky with college and met Sam, but so what?
âSam was rich. Why would he marry a country girl?â
âAnd what gives you the right to take her life? Carolyn earned her place through hard work and love.
âMeanwhile, you? As an adopted daughter, the Young family raised you. Sam cared for you, yet you repay them with treachery? You even want to kill his child. Youâre the one who doesnât deserve anything!â
Diana had seen humanityâs darkest sides before, but Janetâs cruelty boiled her blood.
âYou nosy wretch! You should mind your own business.â Janet knew that everything was irreversible now.

Sam had already sent people to investigate her.
6/6
She was done for, and she wanted to take Diana down with her.
âJanet!â Samâs icy voice cut through the corridor.
Diana turned to see him standing behind her, his face a mask of fury.
She let go of Janet.
Janet scrambled to her feet, trembling. âSamâ¦â
âDonât. From now on, Iâm no longer your brother. I believed in your kindness, but you turned out to be a monster. You tried to kill my wife and child, embezzled company funds and sent fake messages and videos to drive a wedge between us.
âThe Young family gave you everything, yet you betrayed us, wanting to get everything we have. You donât deserve anything.â
Janetâs body shook as tears streamed down her face. Her hands. balled into fists, her veins throbbing with tension.
She didnât want to admit. She believed that the evidence had all been destroyed by her, and she could deny everything. She stammered, âNo, Sam, itâs not true. You must believe me. These are lies!â
