Chapter 7

Because the chandelier suddenly exploded, Sophia got sent back to her room without dinner.

Diana, worried Sophia might be hungry, had a maid take her to the kitchen where she personally made a pot of soup for her.

As they walked past the dark dining room, Diana shot a cold glance around.

Howard was gone, and the cold moonlight outside shone on the shattered crystal chandelier on the floor, casting a pale light.

The next morning, the repairman finally showed up.

Since the dining room was still a mess and hadn’t been cleaned, Sophia suggested they have breakfast on the terrace in the small garden.

After breakfast, Howard and Diana got ready to head back to Luxe Haven Apartments.

While Diana was in the restroom, Sophia pulled Howard aside, looking serious. “Howard, Diana’s a good girl. Since you’re married to her now, you better treat her right and not give her a hard time!”

Howard’s eyes darkened a bit. “Got it, Grandma.”

Sophia looked at Howard’s cold face and sighed lightly, “I know you’ve got a lot of grievances and confusion, but spend more time with Diana, and you’ll see her good side.”

A flicker of light flashed in Howard’s eyes, and he smiled slightly.

When Diana came out of the restroom, Sophia gave her some more advice and then reluctantly watched them leave.

he believed her.

In the car on the way back to the apartment, Diana noticed Howard’s empty neck, wondering

Maybe Diana’s gaze was too intense because Howard glanced at her while driving. “What are you staring at?”

Diana snapped back to reality. “Do you believe me?”

Howard coldly smiled and stayed silent.

The rest of the drive was quiet.

Back at the apartment, they stood in the spacious, bright living room, looking at each other without speaking.

Diana suddenly realized she was married, and Howard beside her was her husband.

An awkward silence slowly spread between them.

“Mr. Spencer…” Diana stammered.

‘Call me Howard,” Howard said.

Diana was slightly stunned, looking up at the cold and hard Howard in front of her. His eyes were very deep, making it impossible to see what he was feeling.

“Okay, Howard, Diana responded smoothly.

For Sophia’s sake, Diana could maintain a respectful and polite relationship with Howard, but nothing more,

Diana’s feelings had already been severed in her previous life.

“Then I’ll go back to my room to rest,” Diana said with a slightly distant and polite smile.

“Okay.” Watching Diana’s back as she went upstairs, Howard’s eyes darkened.

Chapter 7

Howard squinted his eyes and subconsciously grasped the gem in his pocket.

An hour later, Diana took a bath and then comfortably lay on the soft bed, scrolling through her phone.

Downstairs was very quiet, indicating that Howard had already left.

However, Diana didn’t care about Howard’s whereabouts. She took out her phone and opened Facebook, seeing a lot of messages from Robert.

Diana frowned in disgust. Just as she was about to put down her phone, a voice call came in.

Diana’s eyebrows twitched, and she hung up Robert’s call without hesitation.

Robert: [Diana, why didn’t you pick up? You never used to be like this! Where are you? I’ll come get you! We can go see your parents, then you apologize, and sign the surgery consent form. We can still be together, okay?]

Seeing that, Diana sneered. She remembered how, in her previous life, she had desperately tried to please Emily and Aiden out of low self–esteem with Robert playing a significant role.

Diana: [We’ve already broken up, jerk!]

Robert: [Why? Diana, don’t be so stubborn! I gave up the chance to study abroad for you! How can you break up with me so easily? Why are you so heartless?]

Diana squinted her eyes, her slender fingers quickly tapping on the phone screen.

Diana: [Jerk! By the way, you still owe me five hundred thousand dollars. Isn’t it time to pay me back?]

On the other end of the phone, Robert’s face stiffened when he saw this message.

Just a few days ago, Robert had borrowed five hundred thousand dollars from Diana under the pretext of an investment project. This money was meant to take Laura on a spa trip after her surgery.

But unexpectedly, in just a few days, Diana seemed to have become a completely different person.

Robert gritted his teeth in frustration, thinking he had to find a way to get Diana to undergo the surgery, no matter what. Otherwise, his plan would fail.

kobert: [Diana, I also want to pay you back as soon as possible. Can we have a meet?]

Diana raised an eyebrow and sneered, fully aware of Robert’s sinister intentions

Diana: [Jerk! I feel disgusted just meeting you!]

In the end, Diana did not agree to meet Robert to get her money back.

Diana was busy saving all the previous chat records, transfer records, and other evidence.

With her experience from her previous life, Diana knew very well how ruthless Robert could be. It was impossible to expect him to return the money willingly.

But with this evidence, it would be enough to send Robert to jail.

After finally organizing the evidence, Diana breathed a sigh of relief.

She was sitting on the bed, holding her phone in a daze when a pleasant ringtone sounded.

Diana looked down and

,” a familiar name on the phone screen, making her feet a bit dazed. It was Jaspet Getty, the only brother in the Getty

farmily who treated her well.

Diana was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and answered the call. “Hello, Jasper

‘Diana, where are you now? Jasper’s voice on the other end of the line was slightly anxious.

Diana suddenly felt a lump in her throat. “Jasper, I miss you.”

She avoided the main issue, not wanting to worry Jasper.

Jasper was clearly taken aback for a moment, then he laughed warmly. “Diana, I miss you too. My project here is almost finished, and I’ll be back in a few days. Is there anything you want as a gift?”

“No,” Diana said, forcing a smile, “Jasper, I’ll make dinner for you when you get back.”

“Sure, I haven’t had your cooking in a long time. I really miss it.”

Hearing Jasper’s hearty laughter, Diana’s previously gloomy mood improved a bit, and she couldn’t help but smile a little. “By the way, Jasper, isn’t the paper you mentioned last time about to be published?”
