Chapter 896 Knowing the Secret

Diana stared at Helen, confused. She couldn’t understand why she was saying these things to her.

“Diana, let me finish. Queenie has always been loyal to Andrew. If Steven treats you well, you won’t be safe.”

Diana froze, still trying to process her words.

“Grandma, is that true?” she gasped, her eyes wide with disbelief.
