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
No matter the reason for giving her contact information to Dylan, Suzy was irritated, and someone would have to pay the price for it.…Dylan was just about to call Victor when his phone rang—it was Victor calling him first."Mr. Wright, are we still on the same team or what? One minute I’ve got you
Suzy was a bit surprised. "Anne?""Yep!" Allen replied. "She’s the one who paid a hefty price to hire Avalon.""How hefty?""A hundred thousand dollars.""...A hundred thousand dollars?" Suzy’s expression was full of disdain. "It’s not that she’s insulting me—she’s insulting her so-called love. Don’
The more they failed to uncover, the more it confirmed that the relationship between the three was far from simple.Even Desmond couldn’t help but question whether his skills had deteriorated. Why else had he been letting Dylan down so much lately?Dylan glanced back at Desmond, making him lower his
Matthew’s fury only grew when his hand was stopped mid-air. "Who dares stick their nose where it doesn’t belong—"But when Dylan’s face came into view, Matthew’s expression changed in an instant, replaced with a flattering smile. "Ah, Dylan, what brings you here?"Even though Dylan was younger, Matt
Desmond stepped in, saying, "Mr. Wright and Mr. Claude are not close."Julian scoffed, refusing to believe it. "Not close? Dylan Wright, you’ve always been a man of profit, never doing anything that doesn’t serve your own interests. You may act like you’re helping Claude, but in reality, it’s all f
“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
