Capítulo 223
The bacsh against the Stevenson family was getting out of hand. Flora feared that Diane might be attacked for a long time, so
she felt sending her abroad was the best decision.
Diane shook her head vigorously. After biting her lower lip hard, she uttered resentfully, “No, | won’t run away! | will stay back and
fight all my enemies. Why should | run like a coward? Since they made me suffer, | will make their lives a Living hell. They must
pay!”
This decision didn’t go down well with Flora. She said persuasively, “Let it go, Diane. Edmund doesn’t deserve you. You need to
move on since he dumped you. Your father and | will deal with him while you live a good life abroad.”
Flora didn’t want Diane to risk her Life just because she wanted to get back at Edmund and the others. She wanted her daughter
to move on even though she loathed Edmund too.
She believed that going abroad would give Diane a fresh start. After all, Edmund wasn’t the only man in this world. Love might
find Diane if she put everything behind her, including that scum of a man.
At the thought of this, Flora continued, “Forget about that idiot. I''ll help you find another man. This one would cherish you with his
life!”
“Mom, stop it! Do you ever care my feelings?” Diane yelled at her.
Flora was taken aback by this. After sighing deeply, she said unhappily, “I’m your mother. Of course, | care about you. But you
felt nothing big when you broke up with your foreign boyfriend and came back to date Edmund back then, didn’t you? Why now
can’t you move on from Edmund?”
Flora didn’t think her daughter could be obsessed with a man. She and Philip had groomed her to see men as stepping stones.
Power and wealth were just as important to them as food. Love took the backseat in their books.
At that time, Diane had immediately broken up with her foreign boyfriend and returned home when her parents told her to do so.
Flora thought she was still that sensible. She was shocked to learn that Diane had a different mind now.
Diane wiped her tears and said resolutely, “I don’t want to stay back because | love Edmund. In fact, | hate him now. The only
reason why | want to stay back is to take revenge on him and Chelsea! Why did Edmund choose her over me? | won''t let it go!”
Diane didn’t want to back down because she couldn''t swallow her pride. She couldn''t ept rejection because she had gotten
whatever she wanted since childhood.
She always did the dumping, not the other way around!
It was a p in the face that Edmund dumped her when she badly wanted to marry him. To make things worse, he did it because
of Chelsea—a woman whom she felt wasn’t worthy to stand side by side with her. What an insult!
Flora was so helpless. She could only keep mute and watch her daughter behave so stubbornly.
“What''s your n?” Philip asked all of a sudden.
Staring into space, Diane clenched her fists and uttered, “First, | have to make aeback to the entertainment industry as soon
as possible. Only when | am active in the circle can | teach Chelsea an unforgettable lesson!”
Diane''s father, Philip, had formed amazing connections over the years. Plus his great wealth, embarrassing Chelsea would be
too easy for Diane.
Edmund would do anything to protect her.
But at the end of the day, he was only one person. He couldn''t be with her at all times!
Edmund probably thought his power would Let him defend Chelsea.
But Philip was no less.
Philip contemted over the matter for a while and finally said, “| won’t ask you what your ns are. However, | suggest you not
show yourself up anytime soon. You can make a greateback once the rumors have faded.”
Diane felt a sense of discontent. “Dad!” she whined.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Waiting was thest thing she wanted to do but Philip was insisting that she should wait.
