Chapter 660 It Was My Fault Before
She always had a way of igniting his anger so easily.
Sometimes, he felt an almost overwhelming urge to strangle her in his fury.
"What now? Are you going to kick me out of the car again? Make me walk home in the snow?"
Diana's voice dripped with sarcasm as she stared at him coldly. "You've already done that three times. If you throw me out again tonight and I end up getting sick, I won't hesitate to drag you down with me. Seriously, I have nothing left to lose. The only reason I'm still alive is to seek revenge.
"Steven, you don't believe me? Try me. People who aren't afraid of death can do anything."
Diana's hatred reached its peak at that moment, and her words were filled with extremity. She hated the bitter winter and the cold, and the memories of nearly dying in it haunted her.
When he saw the pure hatred in her eyes, Steven's heart trembled violently. It was his own stupidity, his own mistakes, and he knew he owed her everything for the rest of his life.
She despised him to the core.
Steven took a deep breath and admitted, "It was my fault before. I was blind and foolish, unable to see Queenie's true nature. I won't hurt you again. From now on, let's live our lives like we did in the first two years."
As Steven drove into the villa's grounds, Diana couldn't be bothered to say a word.
She simply closed her eyes, refusing to speak.
Steven felt utterly helpless.
She used to be so lively, her laughter radiant like sunlight, but now she kept her guard up and her defenses sharp whenever he was around.
Everything that had happened before had been real.
Diana had saved him and cared for him for two years, while Queenie had deceived him repeatedly.
Steven had been foolish. He had been biased, taking sides without hesitation, always supporting those he cared about most without question.
When he saw her laughing and chatting with Cecil earlier, all he could think about was dragging her away and punishing her like this.
There was a subtle, familiar fragrance on her skin, one that he couldn't resist, and it made his heart beat faster.
He had never felt like this before. It was both uncomfortable and strangely eager.
And all because he had believed the lies of a cunning woman like Queenie, he had missed out on something so beautiful.
Ever since he found out that it was Diana who had saved him three times, every time he saw her, his heart felt like it was on fire, beating wildly, burning with pain. All he wanted was to hold her tight and kiss her deeply.
Diana was breathtakingly beautiful, beautiful to the point of addiction.
He couldn't accept that she didn't love him anymore. She had once loved him so completely.
The thought of losing her made Steven angrier. His grip tightened, and he scooped Diana up in his arms and headed towards the nearby, inviting bed.
