Romans & histoires Strange Sally Diamond Book Club Questions

Sally isn’t a mind-reader, so she won’t figure out what’s going on unless I tell her, but her mate… My eyes meet the red ones belonging to Ryan. He shoots me a friendly smile, and under normal circumstances, I would grin like the Cheshire Cat himself. I’m usually carefree and happy-go-lucky, but I’m afraid Ryan will read my mind and figure out what happened at the club yesterday. Sally told me he has that ability, so I try my hardest to empty my mind and just think about…seagulls. Yes! Wonderful seagulls. “So, it’s your birthday today,” Sally says while preparing my plate. “Are you excited to find your fated mate once and for all?”

Eva was even more confused by Sally’s reply. She had thought that the kidnapper might be an enemy of hers or Nathan’s. It could even be Wanda, but it turned out to be Sally. Eva could not think of any grudge she had ever had with Sally. She frowned. When she saw Sally quietly sitting there, she asked softly, “Why are you doing this, Miss Craven?” “Don’t you know why?” Sally roared angrily and took out a dagger to brush against Eva’s face. Her voice got even more vicious and frightening.

But then, she couldn't help but lament. "What are those old hyenas up to? They called for an emergency meeting and notified me at the last minute. Do they want to test how punctual I am?" she sneered. "Of course not, they're not that nice. It's probably annoying me." Diamond Group was a shining beacon of innovation and technological advancement in Stone City. Everyone knew its name, and they all knew Helaina Diamante, the sole heiress and CEO responsible for its success. It was a sprawling, semi-futuristic complex, with gleaming

says Ada as she twirls in a pretty lavender colored dress. “You think so? I have fallen in love with it,” I reply. “She’s right. That is definitely the one,” agrees Jade as she puts her Jade colored dress back on it’s hanger. I head back to the dressing room to change back into my clothes when my ears pick up a disturbing conversation. “Did you hear that dragon mutt is related to the lycan that killed our beloved King’s grandmother,” says one girl. “What! No! We can’t have the enemy as our queen, what is Aspen thinking,” replies the other.

Diamond’s POV I quickly punched the combination into the safe lock, praying my luck in life hadn't run dry yet. It clicked, and I almost screamed in joy. Finally, something good was happening to me. I opened the lock and saw some papers here and there, but nothing of interest to me. While going through them, a small black key fell to the ground. I picked it up, and it was small enough to fit into the diary lock. I hurriedly dropped the documents and reached out for the book. I slid the key inside, and it clicked open. I sat down and began reading through the pages and transcripts. The more I read, the more speechless I became.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎The door clicked open, and Sally stepped inside, sharp and focused. ‎ ‎“ You read it." She said flatly, not waiting for me to answer. ‎ ‎“ Good morning”, I greeted. ‎ ‎And she just looked at me. ‎ ‎I nodded slowly. “They’re… terrifying.” ‎ ‎She shrugged like it was obvious. ‎ ‎“You don’t survive by being soft.” ‎ ‎“ Why me?” I asked in a voice barely above a whisper. ‎ ‎Sally’s eyes flickered. “ Because the alpha sees something in you. Something dangerous.”

Yet, I still had this nagging sense of unease. And I was right. Because in the middle of the ceremony, Jim burst in. He was holding a brand-new, sparkling diamond ring—and the delusional belief that he could still take me away. “Ella!” he shouted. “I’m here to take you with me. Stop being angry, okay? You’ve already won. I don’t want to fight anymore.” Edward’s mother, Anna Wood, was furious. “Who let this lunatic in? Get him out of here!”

“You don’t need to ask, Shantel. You can always have it. I can explain the calculations better to you.” As Diamond handed over her book, she couldn’t help but notice that Shantel wasn’t her usual cheerful self. There was something odd about her withdrawn demeanor. “Which of the questions don’t you understand?” she asked gently. Shantel looked at the classwork and began writing in her own book. “Oh, I think I understand them now. I didn’t get the right question for number three.” She returned the book to Diamond after making her corrections, but hesitated to walk away, further arousing Diamond’s curiosity.

Daisy suddenly remembered the diamond she ordered. “What about my diamond Ellen?” Daisy asked. But the butcher woman laughed. Then turned to the other merchants. “Hey you guys, can you hear that? This woman is looking for diamonds here, it looks like she’s dreaming,” Ellen sneered, which drew laughter from traders and visitors around her.

The paper is soft from wear, and as I unroll it, I discover a tear in the corner. Whoever this letter belonged to had read it dozens of times. Curious, I read it. Dear L, By the time you read this letter, it will be too late. I want you to know that this key holds all the answers. Be careful how you use it, as it can either bring good fortune or unleash hell. I will always love you. Sally. I reread the letter a second time, twirling the key around the string with my index finger. L? As in Luca? I pull a face. Did Sally know he was going to kill her? But if she did, why was she so loving toward him?
