Paula looked at Steven with a cold gaze. "Steven, do you know? One lie can cost
you a person's trust for a lifetime," she
said sternly.
Steven felt unsettled under Paula's
intense gaze.
In the depths of his heart, he even
harbored the thought that Paula would never acknowledge him as Diana's
husband.
Thinking about the words Diana had
said, his heart felt empty, and he couldn't
breathe from the pain.

He realized that in his anger, he had

overlooked the fact that Diana shouldn't have gone on blind dates while still married to him.
Her blind date was still with Alexander. Queenie watched Paula's figure as she
walked away and wondered, "Could she

Queenie instantly felt guilty and uneasy.
She knew that her lie had been exposed, and she understood that trying to cover

hundred lies, and it was possible to never
be able to untangle the web of deceit for
a lifetime.
Just as she was caught in deep turmoil, she suddenly heard Steven's voice.
"Queenie, you really disappoint me. Have lunch by yourself," Steven's voice was icy cold.
This startled Queenie, and she took
a deep breath before catching up to

Steven coldly pulled his hand away and looked at her intently. "Queenie, in my

conversation with her brother just now.
Back then, when he had the accident,
Queenie had left with another man, but
he had never doubted her before.
He believed everything she said.

left and had married me, Diana would
still be the one to marry into the Marsh
family. She is the true daughter of the Marsh family, as recognized by my Chapter 52 Blame.

But an unexpected thing happened in his
life: Diana.
Then, Steven left.
Queenie burst into tears, realizing that even if she hadn't left back then, he still
