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
Suzy returned to Hillside Villa, expecting Allen to scold her, but all he said was, "Your tolerance for alcohol has really gone downhill compared to three years ago."Suzy was speechless but she couldn’t deny it."Look at those dark circles under your eyes. Even a raccoon would be jealous. Go get so
Dylan never told Suzy what he was planning. No matter how many times she asked, he’d just flash a mischievous smile and say, "That’s classified information."Curiosity was a strange thing—the more someone kept a secret, the stronger the urge to uncover it became. And Suzy was no exception. The mo
Dylan's health had been deteriorating over the past few days. Sometimes, even speaking became a struggle.He didn’t dare tell Suzy. She was already overwhelmed with everything going on, and he didn’t want to add to her burden.Suzy noticed his silence after he called her name. He said nothing mor
"Evangeline Manor."Suzy froze. "What did you just say?""I tracked the figure all the way back to Evangeline Manor. They met with the Empress."Her mind went blank.The mastermind she’d been hunting for so long… was Evangeline?She suspected her sister-in-law once before, but she'd dismissed the th
"Evangeline, don’t think like that," Suzy said, comforting Evangeline. "Your kindness isn’t the problem—Serena’s lack of remorse is. Stop blaming yourself. Just leave her to me. I’ll handle everything. You just need to focus on getting better."Evangeline nodded, tears streaming down her face. "Su
Dylan couldn’t figure out what Suzy had in mind. She hadn’t explained her plan, leaving him completely in the dark.In reality, Suzy wasn’t planning to do anything. She’d decided to stop fighting and go along with the game.Whoever was behind this was clearly trying to mislead her, keeping her cha
"Suzy, please don't think that way anymore. If you do, I really don’t know what I’ll do," Evangeline said softly."Okay, I won’t," Suzy reassured her, squeezing her hand. "And you shouldn't think about it either. I’m right here with you. Just close your eyes and rest for a while."Evangeline obedie
Seeing how firmly Suzy insisted that Serena was the culprit, Simon didn’t argue further. He let out a long sigh. "Maybe you’re right. Like you said, the evidence does point to her.""I’ll find a way to make her confess," Suzy said with quiet determination.As they spoke, a loud crash came from Evan
"I’m on my way!" Suzy answered, then rushed straight to Evangeline's room.When she arrived, it was immediately clear that Evangeline wasn't struggling physically—it was her mental state that had deteriorated."I just got back," Simon said anxiously as he paced near the doorway. "The moment I walked
Suzy assumed that after enduring the punishment, Serena would break and tell the truth. But she didn’t.Even after being beaten to the brink of death, she refused to confess.Suzy stood there, watching Serena, who was slumped against the iron frame, her body covered in blood, her breathing shallow.
