NovelEnglishChapter 0791 Diana's words made Elliot's already icy gaze turn even more terrifying.
His voice dropped dangerously low. "What did you just say?" The look on his face made it clear-he was on the verge of losing control.
One wrong word, and there was no telling what he might do.
But she had already cthis far.
If she backed down now, it would mean she was afraid of him.
So, she forced herself to stand her ground and repeated her words, her voice steady.
"I said, you slept with me, so you will take responsibility." Then, she added with a mocking smirk, "Or what? Did you think you could just walk away like nothing happened? "Please. I'm a Wright-do you really think I'm swoman you can just use and discard?" Her words were like gasoline thrown onto an open flame.
Elliot's fury erupted, reaching the point of no return.
His hand shot up, ready to strike.

As if Dylan hadn't spoken at all, his palm cdown hard, landing a ruthless slap across Diana's face.
She staggered from the impact, but Elliot's voice was even more merciless.
"Diana Wright, if I had known it was you, I would've rather dropped dead than laid a single finger on you!" Suzy had been about to intervene, but Elliot was too fast.
By the tshe stepped forward, the damage was already done-Diana had been struck, and Elliot already spat out those cruel words.
She hesitated.
Perhaps if she didn't get involved, things wouldn't escalate further.
If she stepped in now, it would only make Elliot despise Diana even more.
But she couldn't just stand by and watch.
So, she stepped between them, looking Elliot directly in the eye. "If you have a problem, take it up with me." Elliot let out a cold laugh, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
"With you? Mentor, if you didn't want to help me, you could have just said so. There was no need to pull a stunt like this.
"I used to think you cared about Diana, but now I see-when it suits you, she's nothing more than a pawn." His expression darkened further.
"You used her to get back at me, to pushaway completely so you could be with Dylan.
"And as for Diana... well, maybe someone else would hate you for it." Suzy didn't deny it.
In fact, she deliberately fed into his misunderstanding.
"Yes, that's exactly what I did. This was my plan, and Diana had nothing to do with it. She was just following my orders." "No, that's not true!" Diana suddenly interjected.
"Sis, you never toldto do anything!" Suzy cut her off. "Since he's already figured it out, there's no point in lying anymore." Diana knew exactly why Suzy was saying dinis-she was trying to take the blso that Elliot wouldn't direct his anger at her.
But that also meant all of Elliot's fury would land squarely on Suzy instead.
Diana had spent stwith Elliot in the polar region.
She understood his temperament to sextent.

Back when Suzy had kept them both stranded there, he already built up here, he resentment toward her. If this misunderstanding wasn't cleared up, that resentment would only deepen.
In this world, a person could endure pain from anyone-but not from the one they love, When love turned into pain the wound it left behind would never truly heal. And then, there was hatred.
The deeper the love, the deeper the hate.
Sometimes, that hatred outweighs the love entirely.
She feared that Elliot would lose himself to that hatred. So...
"No, Suzy, you're the one lying to him," Diana said, pressing, kerlips together before turning to Elliot. She had made up her mind-she would tell him the truth.
"When I woke up and realized I was alone, I controught I was still under the of the person who had kidnapped me. So, I ran.
"But just as I reached the staircase, I ran straight into a group of people heading upstairs..." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
