Chapter 950 Heâs Not a Dog
Owen turned and saw Steven across the room. Without hesitation, he walked toward him, his frustration evident.
For days, Steven had been avoiding his calls.
As a friend, he understood that Steven was still reeling from the loss of his company.
The calls had gone unanswered, but Owen also understood it was because Steven didnât want to look weak in front of his
friends.
Tonight, though, he had come to get answers.
âSteven, what the hell happened? How did Diana end up with your company?â Owen demanded, his anger boiling over.
George, watching from a distance, noticed how little the two men seemed to notice the difference between him and Steven. He didnât need to mimic his every gesture or expression to know how to command attention. A cold look and a controlled stance were enough to make everyone feel his presence.
âOwen, just as you see it, Iâve been outplayed by Diana. Now the Gellar Group is hers.â
His eyes locked onto Diana with a cold, malicious smile.

Diana barely spared him a glance, unfazed by his acting. âMr. Gellar. Iâm not here to play games. You know everyone here. Let me be clear. I didnât steal the company. Your own stupidity cost you everything. Donât let your two clueless friends think I took it from you. Itâs not that I took it. Itâs that you couldnât handle your
own mess.â
Georgeâs eyes blazed with fury. If it werenât for Queenieâs
foolishness, Diana wouldnât have been able to outmaneuver him.
so easily.
Queenie shot Diana a glare filled with hatred. If anyone found. out that Stevenâs affair had led to the agreement that stripped her of everything, she wouldnât be able to show her face in public.
She and George had worked so hard for nothing, and the sting of failure cut deep.
She couldnât believe how everything had slipped through her fingers, all because of Dianaâs cunning.
And the one who had walked away with it all was the woman she hated most.
Her gaze sharpened with anger as she watched Diana, but the latter acted like she wasnât even there.
George lowered his voice, trying to keep control. âOwen, this isnât just Dianaâs fault. This is all because of the preâmarriage agreement. If I betrayed her, all the assets would go to her.

âLetâs not dwell on this. If you want to talk business, we can deal with it later.â
Owen was stunned. He stared at Steven, still trying to make sense of it all. Everything looked the same, like his face and commanding presence, but something was missing.
âSteven, this doesnât feel like you. Youâve spent years building up the company. Youâve fought for this. How could you just hand it all over to Diana like this?
âThe company is in her hands now, and sheâs going to ruin it. That was your whole lifeâs work.â
Owenâs face flushed red, his muscles tense with fury. The loss of the collaboration had cost his family dearly.
Georgeâs face darkened further. âItâs done. Thereâs no point in going over it again. Iâll get the company back. Just give it some time.â
No one was angrier than him. He had believed that if he eliminated Steven, he could take control of the Gellar familyâs wealth. But the Gellar family had played him from the start, and now all his schemes had crumbled to dust.
Owen turned and fixed a cold stare on Diana.
Queenie leaned in, speaking quietly but urgently. âOwen, be careful. Dianaâs not someone you want to underestimate.
âIf she could play the entire Gellar family like this, donât think
Chapter 950 Heâs Not a Dog
she wonât come after you and Yanson, too.â
Her words only made Owenâs anger burn hotter. His eyes. narrowed with menace.
âDonât worry, Queenie. I wonât let her get away with this.â
Queenie heard the resolve in his voice and knew it was only a matter of time before Diana would face the consequences.
After all, they were all victims here.

Diana watched the three of them banter back and forth, a faint smile playing at the corners of her lips. She could tell that Owen and Yanson were done for.
After taking over the Gellar Group, she was already planning on tossing these two clowns aside. Theyâd been loyal to Queenie for far too long.
She was a woman who thrived on power and money.
While she didnât enjoy controlling others, she had no tolerance for anyone trampling on her life.
Her path was clear now, and she wasnât about to let these jokers get in the way.
In her past life, her only regret was not living up to her grandfatherâs expectations of

topâtier president.
But this time, she was going to make sure to fulfill his dream.

Her grandfather always told her that a woman should stand strong and independent, live for herself, and not let love or attachments hold her back.

Owen walked up to her, towering over her. âDiana, donât get too cocky. Stevenâs just having a rough patch. Iâll dig up your dirty secrets and ruin you.â
Diana slowly lifted her gaze, her voice icy and even. âWhat dirty secrets? Owen, do you even know what youâre talking about? Is it really me hiding something, or is itâ¦â
She rested one hand on the armrest of her wheelchair, chin tilted slightly as her fingers traced her jaw. Her face was cool and stunning, a picture of grace and strength.
She smiled, but the air around her seemed to thicken with pressure so heavy it made Owen feel like he was suffocating.
Owen was stunned. Heâd never expected Diana to radiate that kind of authority, like someone who had spent years at the top of the food chain.
As Stevenâs close friend, he knew exactly how much Steven doted on Queenie.
Making this kind of scene in public would ruin Stevenâs
reputation.
âDiana, this is your fault. You couldnât keep your man, so whoâs to blame?â

Diana chuckled, a hint of amusement in her eyes as she turned to look at George. âMr. Gellarâs not a dog. Why would I need to tie him down?
âIf you starve a dog, itâll start acting out.â
George and Queenie both looked furious.
Diana raised an eyebrow and turned her sharp gaze toward Queenie. âMs. Marsh, I didnât press charges for you stealing my design sketches last time. But donât think Iâll let it slide next time. Iâll make sure everyone knows what kind of thief you really are.â
Queenieâs face drained of color. She glanced around at the growing crowd, her composure wavering. âDiana, what exactly did I steal from you?â
âOh, come on,â Diana mocked, her voice sweet but dripping with sarcasm. âLook at you, pale as a ghost. Is it really that hard to admit someoneâs better than you?â
Yanson tried to step in, sneering. âDiana, whatâs so great about you? You didnât even finish high schoolâ¦â
âMr. Hastings,â Joshua cut him off, his voice sharp. âDonât listen to gossip. Your soâcalled prestigious university and Ms. Bishopâs, thereâs no comparison. Donât make a fool of yourself.â
Yanson froze, clearly caught off guard. âMr. Turner, whatâs that supposed to mean?â

Joshua turned to Diana, admiration clear in his eyes. âWhen Ms. Biship graduated from university, you were still in high school.
While you were slumming it in that soâcalled trash university, she was already a mogul in the investment world.
âThatâs what I mean.â
Yanson stood there, speechless, as Luna wheeled Diana away, following Joshua out of the room.
He turned to Owen, completely confused. âWhat just happened? What did Joshua mean?â
Owenâs eyes were cold as he watched Dianaâs retreating figure. His voice was chilling. âHeâs calling you an idiot.â
