As soon as the car came to a stop, Suzy got out and searched for her keys, but after rummaging for a while, she couldn't find them. Feeling frustrated, she pounded on the door. "Dylan, open the door!""Do you hear me? Hurry up and open it."She called out for a long time, but the door stayed shut.
Anne’s words were meant to further drive a wedge between Dylan and Suzy, but to her surprise, Dylan didn’t engage. He simply said, "It’s late. Finish your strawberries and get some rest."Anne was speechless.He’d changed.In the past, when she brought things like this up, he never reacted so indif
Dylan pushed open Suzy's bedroom door, only to find it empty. The brief spark of hope in his eyes dimmed instantly.Suddenly, he heard a sound coming from the master bedroom.That flicker of hope reignited, and he quickly changed direction. Before opening the door, Dylan hesitated for a moment.Whe
The truth was, deep down, Suzy felt a bit guilty. For the past three years, she had indeed acted like a coward, barely daring to breathe in his presence, completely losing herself. But tonight, she was determined to reclaim the dignity that was rightfully hers.…The next morning.Before Suzy even
Divorce papers, remarry...With whom?That man, Allen?A slight curve tugged at Dylan’s lips. "Suzy, I have to admit, you’ve played the game of hard to get countless times, but this time, you’ve really nailed it."Suzy mimicked him with a sly smile. "So, Mr. Wright, have I finally caught your attent
Dylan's deep gaze grew even darker. "You want to sever ties? Hand over the antidote first.""Antidote?" Suzy spread her hands. "Sorry, I don’t have one.""You poisoned her, and now you claim you don’t have an antidote?" This woman hadn’t told a single truth!"Proof!" Suzy’s voice was icy. "Without
Throughout the ride, Suzy didn’t say a single word to Dylan, not even sparing him a glance. She kept her head down, focused entirely on her phone.After not going home the previous night and having her phone shut off from a dead battery, she was certain Allen had been searching for her everywhere.T
Suzy didn’t want to upset Grace, especially with her high blood pressure. Instead, she decided it would be better to go and quietly check on Grace, making sure her health was holding up.…At the Wright family estate.As soon as Dylan stepped through the door, a pillow flew toward him. He shifted s
“How’s that brat doing?”“Sis, is my brother okay?”Seeing the worry written all over Grace and Diana's faces, Suzy quickly smiled to reassure them. “Just a minor issue and it’s already resolved. With me here, what’s there to worry about?”As she spoke, Suzy gently supported Grace by the arm. “It’s
When it came to being oblivious to romantic cues, Suzy could easily claim the top spot—no competition needed.Under normal circumstances, Dylan should have been left speechless by her lack of response. But, true to form, he seized the moment. “I know. That’s why I need to tell you what I truly feel
"After all these years, I didn’t gain much, but at least I became a decent cook.”Suzy didn’t hold back her agreement. "Alright." Watching Nadia walk away, Suzy turned and left as well. She spent the next two days focused on developing the antidote. During that time, Dylan hadn’t called her even
Nadia’s steps faltered. “The Steele family gave me this life. If it weren’t for them raising me back then, I would’ve died miserably on the streets. So, everything I do now—it’s what I owe them.”“And do you think it’s worth repaying them with your life?” Suzy stepped closer. “Nadia, you’re not movi
After tidying up her things, Suzy prepared to head out. There were a few herbs she needed to buy.Unable to sleep in the early hours of the night, she had spent the time studying the poison in Dylan’s system. One of the reasons Claude’s poison was so difficult to counteract was that she had never kn
Not long after Suzy arrived at Hillside Villa, her phone rang. It was a call from Dylan. Thinking he might be feeling unwell, she answered, “Are you not feeling okay?” “No, it’s not that. I just wanted to ask if you got home safely.” Suzy took a deep breath. “Dylan, unless it’s something about
Before Grace could say anything, Dylan spoke first. “I’ll walk you out.”Catching his hint, Suzy nodded. “Alright.”As the two of them left, Victor immediately took the lead in stirring up gossip. “Did you guys see that? The way they were exchanging looks? Especially Suzy—her attitude toward Dylan i
The group returned to Ashbourne City, and Suzy accompanied Dylan back to the Wright family’s estate. No matter what, she needed to personally send him over to see Grace. As for the poison in his system… Back on the island, while waiting for Victor to pick up Dylan, Suzy had already checked his
When Victor received Suzy’s call on the plane, telling him to come back and pick up Dylan, he thought he must have been dreaming, his longing for Dylan playing tricks on him.Even now, seeing Dylan standing before him, he still found it a little hard to believe.To test his reality, he quickly stepp
