Like hell that would work!Suzy was on the verge of losing her temper. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to take care of Grace, but…Who was he to make decisions for her?Had he really not noticed that things had changed? Did he still think he could call the shots like before as if everything he said
Her phone rang. It was Claude calling.He rarely called her, so there had to be something important. Especially this late at night.Not wanting Dylan to overhear, Suzy stepped out onto the balcony."Claude, what’s up?""Nothing serious. Just wanted to let you know that I took the medicine you gave
Suzy hadn’t planned on getting physical, but Dylan was pushing her too far. Since he was pushing her, there was no point in holding back. She snapped her right leg up, aiming a sharp kick at his crotch...Dylan saw it coming and swiftly caught her right foot. "Suzy, whether you're playing hard to
Feeling frustrated, Suzy wandered into the garden to calm herself down. She sat on a bench for a long time, and only after some time did her mood improve slightly. As much as Suzy dreaded going back to the room, she knew she had to return. Not for Dylan, but for Grace, who had just gotten home toda
Grace felt a sense of unease at the sight of Suzy's serious expression.She quickly clutched her chest, feigning discomfort. "I must not have slept well last night… My chest feels a little tight. Diana, help me back to my room."Diana immediately jumped up. "Coming.""Grandma…" Suzy cut in, giving t
Suzy's heart felt a mix of bitterness and sadness. "Alright."As they watched the two walk away, Diana turned to Grace with frustration. "Grandma, why did you agree to let Suzy and Brother divorce? Weren’t we supposed to help them reconcile?"Grace let out a sigh. "Your sister-in-law has changed. Sh
Dylan turned his head to glance at Suzy, his eyes holding a complexity she couldn’t quite understand.Suzy noticed and thought he was about to say something, but to her surprise, he remained silent.With a swift stroke, Dylan signed his name in a bold, flourishing script.The documents were then rev
Dylan pinched the bridge of his nose, ready to hang up.Sensing what Dylan was about to do, Victor quickly said, "I might not be able to find him, but someone else can.""...Who?""Well..." Victor threw in a condition. "You need to first tell me what’s your relationship with Allen Wheeler.”The more
“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
