Shining Bright After Rebirth Chapter 967

Chapter 967 Envy Himself

Nolan looked at Diana and said, “Diana, it’s alright, we’re not short of money. As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters. Even though you didn’t win, you’re in a good mood.”

All night, her laughter had filled the room, even though she lost a lot of money to them.

Diana asked, “Nolan, do you think I’m really happy? Why can’t I ever win? Olivia said I don’t bet my life, just my luck.”

The other four were speechless.

That was blatant bragging.

Nolan laughed, “Diana, you’ve said all that, but isn’t the last part really what you wanted to say?”

Under the lights, Nolan’s features were sharp, his demeanor elegant. After years of working in the business world, he maintained his pure smile.

Diana suddenly realized that Nolan had grown up. He was now a capable man.

She wasn’t bragging. “Nolan, Nick, Barry, we’ve known each other since we were little. We’ve watched each other grow. It never felt like much before, but this year, it hit me that we’ve all

grown up.

“Back then, each of you had grand ambitions. Nolan, you always wanted to be a CEO, and now your dreams come true.

“Nick, you always wanted to be a police officer. What happened?”

Diana then turned to Barry. “Barry, you used to dream of being a designer. After I left, you all should have gone abroad to study. But instead, you stayed behind to protect me. I’ve told you so many times–just go chase your dreams. Why didn’t you go abroad?”

Nick smiled, “Ms. Bishop, I wanted to be a police officer, to protect people. My dream has already come true. Besides being a cop, I’m your bodyguard.”

Barry gave a wry smile. “Ms. Bishop, you’ve been so focused on Steven these past three years that you didn’t see our efforts. We’ve all fulfilled our dreams. Now that you need us, we’ve come back to your side.”

Diana was both surprised and relieved. She patted her chest with a smile. “I’m glad I didn’t delay your dreams. Now that I know you’ve all made them come true, I can sleep well tonight. Good night, everyone.”

She smiled and stood up. Luna asked, “Diana, aren’t you going. to stay up with us?”

Diana chuckled, “Luna, my memory’s terrible. I almost forgot. I’ve been playing poker just to keep myself awake, so let’s stay

up together. Let’s go outside and set off fireworks.”

She stood up, her eyes a little misty.

But she still smiled brightly, her teeth shining and her smile dazzling.

The four people opposite her felt their eyes tear up.

They understood. The reason Diana kept playing poker with them was because she wanted to know their plans.

If they hadn’t worked toward their dreams over the years, she would have felt guilty.

Even though they were orphans, entrusted to the Azure Group, Diana still wanted them to have their own lives.

Nolan and Nick went to get the fireworks.

Luna brought Diana her coat and helped her put it on. She hobbled outside.

Looking at the icy world outside, winter had blanketed everything in snow and cold.

As they looked at the endless fireworks in the distance, the dazzling lights lit up the entire sky.

Diana smiled, her joy evident.

Finally, she was having the Christmas she’d always wanted.

Leopold and her brothers weren’t there with her, but she was still very happy.

Nolan and Nick set up the firecracker display. Once it was ready, Luna exclaimed, “Hurry, there are only 30 seconds left. Light il.”

Nolan took out a lighter and lit the fireworks.

The fireworks shot up into the sky.

It was deafening.

The sky was lit up as the fireworks shot up, instantly brightening the surroundings.

Each firework was like a brilliant star, blooming with dazzling colors in the night sky.

Diana tilted her head back and smiled happily.

“It’s so beautiful,” she said.

Nolan stood a little further away, pulling out his phone to take a picture of her bright smile.

It had been so long since he’d seen her smile this joyfully.

“Ah, so beautiful,” Luna exclaimed. “To the distant loved ones. Happy Christmas!”

Diana caught the keywords.

Loved ones.

She wondered if Luna was talking about Evan.

Taking a deep breath, Diana thought of Steven and smiled again, “Steven, in this life, happy Christmas to you too.”

After lighting the fireworks, Diana told the others to go back inside. She handed out the gifts she had prepared earlier.

She looked at the four of them and smiled, “I’m not going to play favorites this year. Each of you gets a check for 1.88 million dollars. After the bank opens, you can go cash it.”

Nolan was over the moon. Diana had just added ten million dollars to his salary, and now he was getting 1.88 million dollars. as a gift. This year had been amazing.

Nick and Barry were equally happy.

Diana looked at Luna. “Iris and Aiden are about to return from studying abroad. You can give them the same amount. You take care of it.”

Luna nodded happily. “Got it, Diana. I’ll give it to them later.”

“I’m so happy. Let’s go to rest,” Diana said, cheerfully heading upstairs.

The others watched her, filled with gratitude.

In an apartment somewhere, Evan looked at Steven, who sat

still in his wheelchair, staring deeply at Diana. Tonight, she was genuinely happy.

But he wasn’t.

Evan grumbled, “Mr. Gellar, I risked my life for you. You’re not going to show any appreciation this Christmas?”

Steven finally turned to look at him. “I’ve prepared a check for you for ten million dollars. You’ve worked hard. When you get married, I’ll give you more.”

Evan was shocked.

He thought he had heard it wrong.

Just a moment ago, he had envied Luna and the others. Now, he only envied himself.

He grinned widely. Ever since Steven had learned the truth about Queenie, he had become so much easier to get along with.

This was how it should be.

“Thank you, Mr. Gellar,” Evan said excitedly. This was the reward for his hard work.

He looked at Steven, who remained still. Diana had already gone

back to her room. There were no cameras in her room, but

Steven still couldn’t seem to pull his eyes away. Evan asked, “By the way, what gift did you get Mrs. Gellar this year?”
