Diana smiled lightly, âMy nameâs Diana Bishop. You can just call me Diana.â
Kara was momentarily surprised, recognizing her as the woman who had been all over the news recently for taking over the Gellar Group.
Seeing her beauty and evident capability, Kara couldnât help but feel a surge of admiration.
âSo, youâre Ms. Bishop. Thank you for saving me. Iâm Kara Black, a senior in the Design Department at Silverwood University. You can call me Kara.â
Sheâd be graduating next semester, and she was looking forward to it. Once she graduated, she could start earning money and finally live life on her own terms.
Diana smiled, âKara, itâs a pleasure to meet you. Let me have someone take you back to school.â
But Luna quickly interjected, âDiana, she canât go back to school. Itâll only be more dangerous for her.â
Hearing that, Kara tensed, confused by Lunaâs words.
Diana frowned, âWhy is that?â

âJust now, Kara told me her teacher arranged for her to come here tonight to sign that contract. If she goes back to school, her teacher wonât let her off the hook. Tomorrow, heâll send her right back to those partners, and she wonât be able to escape being forced into that unfair contract.
âA teacher like that doesnât deserve to be one. This situation needs to be handled properly so Kara can return to school safely.â
Diana was taken aback. Now, it made sense why Kara had chosen Queenie all those years ago.
Kara had a gamblingâaddicted father and an indifferent mother.
She had fought tooth and nail to get where she was, and now, her teacher was taking advantage of her, forcing her to serve. Queenie through a contract.
Diana knew she couldnât stand by and do nothing.
Sheâd been overly focused on taking care of Steven in her past life, ignoring a lot of other things. But this time, things were different.
She turned to Kara. âKara, whatâs your teacherâs name?â
âBrandon Hastings,â Kara replied.
Lunaâs expression turned icy. âThatâs interesting. Heâs actually Yansonâs uncle.â

Dianaâs brows furrowed. âI just ran into Yanson outside. We had a bit of a disagreement. I didnât realize his uncle was causing
trouble, too.â
Now it made sense why the two men had brought up Mario
earlier.
Diana pressed on. âThe man who wanted you to sign the contract, his name was Mario, right?â
Kara nodded quickly. âYes! Thatâs him! Even my teacher treats him like heâs untouchable.â
Diana looked at Luna. âFind everything you can about Brandon, his background, anything that could be used against him.
If thereâs something shady, weâll turn it over to the police
tomorrow.â
Luna nodded. âIâll investigate right away, but Kara canât go back. to school just yet.â
Diana now realized sheâd overheard the conversation in the elevator earlier. One of the men had to be Brandon. Sheâd missed that detail earlier.
She turned to Kara. âKara, Iâll arrange a place for you to stay for now. Once weâve dealt with Brandon, you can head back to school.â
Karaâs eyes brightened with gratitude, tears welling up. She felt like she had finally met a truly good person.

âThank you, Ms. Bishop! Iâm a jewelry designer. If you ever need any designs, Iâll do them for free.â
Diana smiled but shook her head.
âYou donât have to do them for free. You have real talent, and your designs will only become more valuable over time. But first, you need to graduate.
âWhen our company hires, we need to see your degree, plus the awardâwinning designs youâve worked on. Bring them along when the time comes.â
Diana offered her a chance, a real one.
Kara wasnât facing her hardest time.
Her toughest challenge was after graduation when her fatherâs gambling debts reached one million dollars. He tricked her into. coming home and tried to force her into marriage to pay off his debts.
Kara forced a smile. âThank you, Ms. Bishop, for giving me this opportunity. With this, graduation will be much easier for me.
âIâll work hard and always keep a grateful heart.â
Diana knew what she was capable of.
âGood. You can apply for an internship at our company. You donât have many classes left, do you?â Diana liked to see things. through when she helped people.

Karaâs voice shook with emotion. âYes, not many. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.â
Diana glanced at Nick, who was standing outside. âNick, come in.â
Nick walked in, nodding to Diana. âMs. Bishop.â
Diana gestured toward Kara. âArrange a place for Kara to stay. Also, get her some basic supplies so she can enjoy her Christmas in peace.â
Nick noticed the tearâstreaked look in Karaâs eyes and his expression softened. âUnderstood.â
He turned to Kara. âMs. Black, please follow me.â
Kara bowed deeply to Diana in thanks before leaving with Nick.
Luna pushed Diana out quietly, and they slipped away without disturbing anyone.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Owen had just finished signing the contract with Queenie.
Owen looked at the signed document, and as soon as he saw Queenieâs name, a smile spread across his face. âQueenie, Steven really spoils you, huh? He handed this contract to you?â
Queenie smiled softly. With George using Stevenâs name, he couldnât afford to betray his connections.

Only she could sign this contract. Once she took over Owenâs company, no one would bat an eye, and Owen would just have to take the loss.
She smiled lightly, her voice bright. âOwen, you know how much Steven cares about me. We share everything.â
Owen, however, understood that Diana had been right all along. Queenie wasnât just after his company. She was aiming for Yanson next.
As if on cue, the door burst open, and Yanson stormed in, fuming with anger.
âQueenie! Owen! Diana is out of control! I tried to teach her at lesson earlier, but the man she brought along beat me up! My face is swollen, and thereâs a chunk of flesh torn from my gums. I havenât been able to eat for days. Itâs so painful!â He winced in agony, his teeth gritted.
Owen frowned, âHow exactly did you try to teach her a lesson?â
Yanson smirked. âI pushed her wheelchair, planning to knock her over and have a laugh. That damn cripple. She deserves it. But you know what else? I ran into Ethan. This guyâs been doing business for the past couple of years, and now heâs expanded all the way to Capitole. Iâm honestly shocked.â
Owen stared at Yanson, bewildered. They were so set on
making Diana the villain, while Queenieâs sweet demeanor had completely blinded them.

Owen sighed. âDid Diana get hurt?â
Queenie narrowed her eyes, sensing something was off. She studied Owen closely, her expression shifting.

Yanson, still seething, leaned toward Owen and spoke in a low voice. âNo, I didnât really hurt her. She just bumped into a wall. Sheâs fine now. The worst part is that she threatened to call the cops on me! If Ethan hadnât shown up and stopped her, I wouldâve been hauled off by the police by now.â
