Chapter 58
“The truth is, I actually don’t mind if you two…” Diana deliberately paused momentarily. “I can post those videos on the internet. Since those paparazzi are so interested in the Hendrix family’s personal matters, I think they would love such a surprise.”
“You dare!” Vincent snapped as his expression turned dark and his tone sharp.
Diana raised her eyebrows. “Why wouldn’t I dare? At this point, my husband is cheating without even trying to hide it. Why can’t I, the legitimate wife, make a scene out of it?”
Vincent snapped back, “You’re unreasonable!”
With a cold sneer, Diana turned around and sat back in her chair, her knuckles tapping on the table. “Sandra, please see the guest out.”
With that, Vincent was escorted out by one of Citrus Bless‘ employees, Sandra Mint. Before leaving, he turned around and gave Diana a meaningful stare.
As for Diana, she still had a relaxed smile on her face, not caring at all. She knew that she had already shed enough tears over Vincent.
When a person hit a dead end, it was wise to turn around and head back. The most important thing was to stop any further loss.
Vincent simply looked down on her, thinking that she would accomplish nothing after leaving him and that the Gyleon family would even fall apart without the Hendrix family’s help.
Diana admitted that Gyleon Corporation was on the verge of bankruptcy. Maybe it should have already happened five years ago.
The old her would still care for the company as she was the Gyleon family’s only daughter. But Kenneth’s actions had hurt her deeply. To him, she was just a tool that could be used for his gain. If that was the case, she was done playing the obedient daughter.
As days passed, Vincent didn’t come to find Diana again after her ultimate refusal last time. Instead, he used all of Hendrix Corporation’s power again to suppress the scandals.
It was hard to admit, but sometimes, corporate interests were been used on it yet.

Vincent had a bad temper, so his methods were always swift and merciless.
If money could keep the reporters quiet, everyone would walk away happy. But when it came to those tougher ones, he would pull out every dirty trick in the book–bribes, threats, manipulations–until everything was resolved.
However, the higher–ups at Hendrix Corporation were clearly displeased with Vincent’s decisions, but all they could do was grit their teeth in silence. At this rate, it was like planting a ticking time bomb in Hendrix Corporation that would eventually blow up in their faces.
Diana saw it all.
During this time, some of Hendrix Corporation’s subordinates had tried to contact her privately, hoping that the legitimate “Mrs. Hendrix” could mediate the situation and perhaps keep Vincent under control.
At the very least, they just wanted Vincent to stop all this nonsense.
Even members of the board came to ask her for help, but Diana politely refused them, saying she was busy preparing for her upcoming shoot.

was just a small supporting role, and she was done with the filming within three days.
She then immediately reported to another set. Although it was still a supporting role, the character was fascinating and caught her eye.
In just two months, Diana had gone to several sets and played eight roles in total. All of them were minor roles with different personas, and some of

Directors who were familiar with her rushed to offer her leading or second–lead roles, but she rejected all of them.
She relied on strategic planning and prioritizing, quantity without compromising on quality. Although all of them were supporting roles, Diana meticulously chose each one.
