Shining Bright After Rebirth Chapter 886

Chapter 886 Climb Higher

Steven insisted, “Diana, look at me.”

Diana didn’t like being too close to him. His presence was overwhelming, and facing him made her nervous.

1/6

She avoided his gaze, keeping her head down. Her entire body was tense, instinctively rejecting his touch.

Steven said, “What’s wrong? Back then, when you took care of me, you even tried to seduce me. Now you’re acting like a coward?”

Diana was pissed off. “Who seduced you? Steven, don’t talk nonsense. At that time, you couldn’t take care of yourself, and Evan was busy at work. You had no one to help, so I helped you clean up and took care of you. And now you say I was seducing you?

“Steven, do you have a conscience?”

Steven smirked, “A conscience? Where would I get that from? My mother ignored me, and my father wanted me dead. Only my grandparents protected me. If it weren’t for them, I’d already be a corpse.”

“Oh, is that so?” Diana sneered. “Then someone like you, so eager to stay alive, ends up giving his life away to others. Steven, I’ve never seen anyone as pathetic as you.”

Steven, afraid of hurting her, didn’t resist.

He sighed inwardly and decided to wail.

When that man showed up, things would become clear. He wouldn’t need to explain.

2/6

Queenie had used that man to ruin the bond he once had with Diana.

Noticing her bad mood, Steven softened his tone. “Diana, lunch is still a while away. I’m going out for a bit. If you’re bored, watch a movie.”

Diana waved dismissively, absorbed in watching her company’s livestream. She was overjoyed at the rising sales figures.

Year–end sales with a zero–return rate kept her spirits high.

With great designs and quality, she was making money.

She said, “Do whatever you want. You don’t need to tell me.”

Steven smiled helplessly.

Diana didn’t even look at him, focusing on the sales and skus.

Steven left the house and went to the

garage.

After getting into his car, he called Evan.

“Zora and her son have been arrested. They’re at the police station now. But she hasn’t implicated Queenie, only admitting to her crimes.”

Steven said, “That’s fine. Queenie still has her uses. Assign three reliable bodyguards to watch her and Mario closely. The man we’re waiting for is coming back. We’ve already picked up signs from Andrew’s communications.”

Evan replied, “Understood, Mr. Gellar. But I’ve received word that Queenie is heading toward the Gellar Manor now.”

Steven frowned. He couldn’t let Queenie disrupt lunch today.

He replied, “Got it. Notify the overseas team to start the meeting.”

He opened his laptop to prepare for a critical international meeting.

The Gellar Manor still had Queenie’s people in it, so precautions were necessary.

Meanwhile, Diana watched the livestream for 20 minutes before switching to a popular variety show.

After another 20 minutes, she got up to stretch and walk around.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

Thinking Steven had returned, she went to open the door.

But standing outside was Queenic.

Diana frowned.

Queenie sneered, revealing her true colors. “Surprised to see me?”

Diana shook her head. “Not really. Just disgusted.”

Queenie’s composed demeanor cracked. “You…”

“If you’re here to see Zora, she and her son are at the police station. You’ll have to visit them there,” Diana said casually.

Queenie snapped, “Why would I look for them? Their actions have nothing to do with me. It’s almost Christmas, and I came to visit Helen.”

Diana glanced at the gift box in Queenie’s hands and sneered, “What’s in there this time? More slow–acting poison?”

Queenie was enraged and raised her hand to slap Diana.

But Diana was faster.

She slapped Queenie across the face.

Queenie cried out in pain, “Diana, you dare hit me?”

Diana said nonchalantly, “I already did. Why ask such a dumb question? Queenie, you’re regressing.”

“I’m here to see Steven. Where is he?” Queenie said, trying to push past her.

Diana blocked her way. “Here to tattle? Queenie, your true colors are already exposed. Do you think Steven will still side with you? How long are you going to lie to yourself?”

Given Steven’s attitude at the hospital and what happened to Evan, he realized how vicious Queenie was.

It was good. Queenie’s actions would reveal her true colors to Steven.

Queenie smirked confidently, “Diana, no matter what happens, Steven will always love me. You’ll see.”

Diana didn’t believe her for a second. Steven wasn’t a fool. For the sake of his family, he wouldn’t allow someone like Queenie to get away with her schemes.

She knew Steven’s character well.

“Queenie,” Diana said firmly, “I believe you. He will side with you no matter what happens.

“But as I said, crocodile tears won’t win you sympathy forever.

“Your fake kindness is meant to deceive and achieve your hidden

I

goals. But lies will be exposed, and your true colors will 1.

“You’ll see your pretense is meaningless. You’ll end up facing betrayal and contempt.”

“Queenie, you pretend to be gentle and kind, acting like you depend on others.

“But you’re not like that. You don’t want to rely on anyone. You just want to step on them to climb higher. Congratulations! You missed your step with Paula.”

Having lived again, she finally understood this.

Sometimes, she woke up at night thinking about this and called herself stupid. She was so foolish that she had to live again to see Queenie’s true nature.

Queenie trembled but sneered, “What’s wrong with wanting to climb higher? I use my methods to get what I want. What’s wrong with that?”
