Queenie turned around, picking up her phone from the pink comforter, and her mood instantly brightened when she saw a video from Penelope.
[Queenie, I ran into Diana at the bar tonight. She ordered ten gigolos!]
Queenie’s eyes sparkled with mischief. “This is just the ammunition I needed.” She typed: [Penelope, leave this to me. I’m going to ruin her reputation.]
“This video is a goldmine!”
Penelope replied: [I’ve sent it your way. Do what you do.]

[Thanks!] Queenie smirked, already plotting her next move.
Tomorrow morning, she’d pay Steven a visit.
As dawn broke, Diana slowly opened her eyes, welcoming the beautiful day ahead.
The morning was peaceful, the kind of tranquility that wrapped around her like a warm blanket.

But just as Diana was soaking in the serenity, her phone on the nightstand shattered the silence.
With a sigh, Diana sat up and answered the call.
“Hello?”
“Diana, you wanted to discuss divorce, right? Come back home now.” Steven’s voice was flat.
Diana’s heart raced as she jumped out of bed. “Steven, are you serious? You really want to go through with the divorce? This. isn’t a joke?”

“Yeah,” he finally said, and the line went dead.
“Yay!” Diana cheered, dashing to the bathroom to get ready.
Meanwhile, in Steven’s home, he sat in silence after hanging up, his expression unreadable.
In the kitchen, a chef was busy preparing breakfast.
Half an hour later, the table was filled with all of Diana’s favorite dishes.
Steven had no clue what Diana’s favorite foods were. So, he had the chef prepare the dishes she usually made.
It was only then that it hit him–every dish Diana cooked was

“Mr. Gellar, breakfast is ready,” the chef announced as he stepped out.
Steven waved him off, estimating that Diana would arrive soon.
His gaze flickered toward the door, a hint of anticipation in his
eyes.
A few minutes later, the sound of the keypad echoed through the air, signaling her arrival.
A faint smile appeared on Steven’s face, but it vanished the moment he saw Queenie walk through the door.
“Queenie? What are you doing here? How did you get the code to my place?”
Queenie smiled sweetly, her tone deceptively gentle, “Steven, don’t you remember? This was supposed to be our wedding home. You married Diana instead, but the code has never changed–it’s still my birthday.”
Steven blinked in surprise, momentarily taken aback.
He quickly regained his composure, his voice turning cold. “I have things to attend to. You should leave.”
But Queenie didn’t budge; instead, she feigned hurt and stepped further inside.

This morning, she had dressed in a way she knew Steven would find appealing. With tears welling in her eyes, Queenie asked, “Steven, if Diana hadn’t come back, you would have married me, right?”
A sarcastic smile crossed Steven’s face. “Queenie, it would never be you. You’ve been trying to push Diana out for years, and even if she weren’t in the picture, I wouldn’t choose you.”
He knew her well enough to see that her heart wasn’t truly in it for him. Steven had indulged her for too long, but he wasn’t
naive.
Queenie had left him when he was at his lowest, only to return
when he was on the rise.
Queenie felt the sting of his words like a sharp blade slicing. through her confidence.
After years of clawing her way into Steven’s life, Diana had shattered her standing in his eyes.
In disbelief, Queenie stepped closer, her voice dripping with nostalgia. “Steven, have you forgotten? We grew up together. I was there for you during your toughest times. You said I was the one you wanted to marry. Why can’t you admit it now? Are you in love with Diana?”
As if to punctuate her point, she deliberately settled herself in Steven’s lap, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck.
Just then, Diana walked in, catching the scene before her eyes.
