Shining Bright After Rebirth

Chapter 82 Heartbroken

“There’s no rush. We’ll bide our time.”

In this life, she was determined to protect her three brothers and grandfather.

She wouldn’t let them meet the same

miserable end they had in her previous

life.

Her brothers truly loved her. In her past

life, she’d been bewitched somehow and

abandoned them for the Marsh family.

In the end, she’d died along with her

unborn child, leaving her brothers

heartbroken.

Tobias smiled indulgently, “Alright, we’ll

do as you say. Go get some rest. Olivia

won’t be back tonight either.”

Diana nodded. “Okay. You guys turn in

early too.”

She was exhausted and headed upstairs

to rest.

Unbidden memories of her past life

surfaced in Diana’s mind.

Back then, only Tobias had tried to cheer

up when she was down.

When she felt wronged, he’d buy her

gifts to lift her spirits.

Even when she lost her temper with him,

he never got angry. Instead, he’d comfort and counsel her patiently.

With the wisdom of her past life, Diana knew she could trust only Olivia, Leopold,

and her three brothers. Everyone else

was suspect.

Her previous life had been so exhausting.

This time around, she was determined to

live happily.

Tobias and Leopold watched Diana’s

retreating figure. Leopold furrowed his brow, saying, “That girl… I can’t help but

worry. You three brothers need to work hard and make money to protect your

sister.”

Tobias smiled, “Don’t worry, Gramps.

We’re prepared. We won’t let anything happen to Diana.”

Leopold spoke earnestly. “She has such a

kind heart. I’m afraid her kindness might

be her downfall. It’s fine to be kind, but

you need to have an edge too.”

Tobias understood his concern. A flash

of sympathy crossed his eyes as he said,

“Grandpa, I’ll take good care of Diana, don’t worry. Besides, you know how

capable she is. Her three brothers are no match for her. I heard she whipped the company into shape today and is even planning to sign a contract with the

Chapter 82 Heartbroken Powell family.”

Leopold grinned proudly, “Well, I didn’t raise you kids for nothing. You’re all business whizzes. You’re all doing great, but I still haven’t found my second

chance at love. Come on, I’m off to

bed. Tomorrow I’ll keep looking for my soulmate at the park.”

Tobias was speechless.

He’d been going on about this for years

but was still flying solo.

Tobias shook his head and chuckled. Leopold was such a big kid sometimes.

Standing up, Tobias gazed out at the

deep night sky. He knew Diana truly

didn’t love Steven anymore.

But she’d loved Steven throughout her

youth. He wondered if she could really let go this time.

Anyone would do, but it absolutely

couldn’t be that cold–hearted Steven.

Born in darkness, he could never bring light to anyone’s life.

The next day, Diana printed out her proposal and went to meet Alexander.

She had arranged to have lunch with Alexander.

The whole point was to show Alexander her collaboration proposal.

She asked Nolan to join them and waited for him outside the restaurant.

After just two minutes, Nolan showed up. He was strikingly handsome with a calm, aloof aura, yet his features were soft, and his smile was warm and inviting.

Diana beamed at the sight of him. “Nolan! I haven’t seen you in six months. Have you gotten even taller?”

Nolan’s smile was as smooth as jade. “Diana, you must be joking. At my age? I’ve just lost some weight, that’s all.”

Chapter 82 Heartbroken

Diana knew he had indeed lost weight.

“Seems like you’ve been working too

hard lately. Now that I’m back, I can help lighten your load.”

Nolan gazed at her smiling eyes and teased, “So Diana, you’re really not going back to the Gellar family? Planning to focus on your career instead?”

He hoped she could move on. Steven wasn’t the right man for her.

Diana flashed a bright smile. “That’s right! I’m not going back. Let’s go meet Mr. Powell.”

As they entered, they saw Queenie and

her best friend Penelope Max, who was

also engaged to Gale, the eldest of the Marsh family.

The two women spotted Diana as well.
