Chapter 23 the Desperation of Diana
Chapter 23 the Desperation of Diana
Diana stayed in the office alone. There was only her in the whole company, and the company seemed
so empty. She was thinking of Judson.
She was thinking about where Judson was now? What was he doing? Was he also being one person
stay in a place just like her? Did he also think of her in the heart? Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
……
At 7 o’clock in the evening, Diana came home with a heavy heart. As soon as she entered the living
room, she saw a pair of well-dressed mother and son except for Sally.
The woman of the same age as Sally was laughing and chatting with Sally. The man of her size with a
straight suit was quietly drinking tea.
Seeing Diana had come back, Sally quickly stepped forward with a smile, took Diana’s hand and
introduced to her, “Diana, this is your Aunt Carter. The handsome guy is Arthur, the son of Aunt Carter.
He just come back from studying in Germany and now is the senior executive of a large company.
When you were a child, you often went to Aunt Carter’s house and played with Arthur. He has always
liked you. You can see that as soon as he came back, he came to see you. You two should have a
good talk about the past…”
Sally said to Diana while she was winking at her.
Aunt Carter, who was full of jewels, also stood up and went to Diana. She looked at Diana carefully,
and the more she looked, the more satisfied she was. She smiled and her mouth couldn’t close. She
picked up a box from the table and handed it to Diana, “Diana, I haven’t seen you for many years. You
are really more and more beautiful. This time when I come, I don’t know what you like, so I bring you a
pair of jade bracelets. I hope you like them…”
Diana declined awkwardly and said, “Hello Aunt Carter. Ha. Ha. You just come here, and don’t bring
me a gift. It’s too expensive, and I really can’t have it…”
When Diana was refusing, Sally grabbed the jade bracelets. She opened it and saw a pair of blue jade
bracelets without any defects. When she saw the price on it, it turned out to be $68888. Sally quickly
accepted the jade bracelet and said to Diana, “Diana, don’t let down Aunt Carter’s heart. Mother will
put the jade bracelet in for you first…”
Diana frowned deeply and said in a low voice, “Mum, these jade bracelets are too valuable. How can
you accept them?”
Sally glared at Diana, “How can’t I accept them? Ah? I’ll tell you the truth, your Aunt Carter brings
Arthur here today to make a blind date for you. I have told your Aunt Carter about the fake marriage
between Judson and you. Your Aunt Carter is a reasonable person and doesn’t care about it. What’s
more, Arthur is much more excellent than Jake who met you last time… So now, I will go out with your
Aunt Carter for relaxation, and let Arthur and you here to talk more…”
Diana listened to Sally’ words, and her heart could not help but pour out endless disappointment. After
all, she was not her own mother. Just a few days after her divorce from Judson, she had arranged two
rich men for her, hoping her to get married quickly. Oh…
Diana was very disappointed and said, “I’m sorry, Judson and I are just in conflict. We’ll remarry again,
so don’t introduce others to me…”
Saying this, Diana grabbed the pair of high value jade bracelets from Sally’ hand and returned them to
Aunt Carter.
“Sorry, Aunt Carter, I’m in a mess now. I don’t want to talk about anything…”
“Diana, so…” Aunt Carter’s face was a little displeased. She looked at Diana and wanted to say
something. At last, she took a look at Sally.
After Sally reacted, she was annoyed and pointed to Diana’s nose and said, “Diana, are you crazy?
Ah? That Judson is just a waste; he is a son-in-law to our family. He ate and drank freely in our family
for a year, and you didn’t even pull hands with him. Now you tell me that you still have feelings for
him?”
Diana frowned deeper, “He gave you $200 thousands on the day he left. Even if minus the $100
thousands my father gave him, he gave you $100 thousands. Are these $100 thousands not enough
for him to eat and drink at home for a year?”
“You, you, you… You’re about to annoy me to death. Even if you are not my own daughter, it’s me who
raised you up. Diana, do you have any conscience!” Sally was completely annoyed.
“Ha ha…” Diana sneered at Sally and said slowly, “Sally, do you feel embarrassed to say I was the one
you raised up? When I was a child, you only beat me and scolded me. If my father didn’t protect me,
could I still live to this day? My father told me that he owed you. He taught me to treat you well since I
was a child. Ha. Ha. I indeed treated you well. I earned money after graduation, and which month didn’t
I give it to you? You are now arranging my marriage everywhere. What do you think of me? I’m
Goods?”
Pa… Sally directly raised her hand and slapped Diana. She scolded bitterly, “Diana, don’t forget, it was
your mother who didn’t want you. It’s me who married your father and acted as your mother! Otherwise
you would be an orphan from childhood!”
Diana palmed her face and sneered, “Oh, Sally, why you married my father and be my mother is you
can’t have children. What’s more, I have always wondered how my father got to your bed with his
personality.”
Heard what Diana had said, Sally’ face turned deadly pale. Her eyes kept turning and dodging…
When Diana saw Sally’ reaction, she understood it instantly. She said in a low voice, “Ha, I understand.
It’s all like I have expected. You are really clever, Sally. From now on, you and I are separated, and
have nothing to do with each other anymore!”
Sally’ face was immediately incomparably dark. She roared, “Ah. Ah. Diana, are you driving me away
now? What did your father tell you before he died? How can you be so cruel?”
“Ah. Ah. I’ll not alive. Why is my life so bitter? My daughter isn’t filial. She wants to drive her mother
away. Ah…” Sally rolled directly on the ground, whining with a handful of snot and tears.
The voice was so loud that neighbors next door heard it. Soon someone next door came to knock at
the door…
Diana raised her head, closed her eyes, and her tears couldn’t stop flowing down…
There was a feeling called desperation…
