The question he didn’t dare ask himself was the very first thing Diana threw at him when he got back to the office.“I told you ages ago, that Anne was a fraud. Told you over and over, and yet, you never believed me.” Diana had only heard about her brother dumping Anne through friends, and now that
The intruder was none other than Anne’s mother, Helena Fox, with the receptionist panting behind her. “Mr. Wright, she slipped past security, and I couldn’t stop her!”Diana, ready to apologize for bumping into her, quickly switched gears when she realized who it was. “What are you doing here? Don’
““Whether it was the earlier kidnapping involving Miss Frost, the secret poisoning of Anne, or the recent staged abduction that implicated Miss Frost—all of it was orchestrated by Lillian,” Helena stated, her voice unwavering.Diana scrutinized Helena’s face, noting that despite her nearly fifty yea
Everyone present assumed the worst for Anne, including Dylan, who ultimately couldn’t stand by idly. He lunged forward, reaching out to catch her, but he was a moment too late.From the 88th floor, her fate seemed certain—until, three floors down, a high-rise window washer with impressive reflexes m
Suzy chuckled. "So, why don’t you go and bring her over?""...Boss, you already knew?" Allen laughed at himself, "Well, of course, someone as sharp as you wouldn't be in the dark about anything.""What would I know?" Suzy looked bewildered, "I don’t know anything. I just think Lilian’s been through
The more she wanted to avoid him, the more he seemed to show up.Suzy wanted nothing more than to ignore them altogether. But Claude wouldn’t allow it; appearances still had to be kept. With an icy expression, she pushed Claude’s wheelchair toward them. As soon as they came to a stop, she spoke up
"Isn’t that right?” Anne’s face was painted with wounded innocence. “I came all this way just to apologize, and you claim to forgive me, yet you won’t show me a shred of kindness. Suzy, if you don’t want to forgive me, just say it—doesn’t this feel a bit hypocritical?”Suzy studied her for a moment,
Originally, she’d gone to give Suzy a hard time, only to end up taking a beating herself—Anne was seething with rage.What infuriated her even more was that on the drive back, she muttered, “Mr. Dylan, Suzy has changed. She used to be so soft-spoken and gentle, but now she’s terrifying. Sometimes I
Selena pressed her lips together before finally revealing the truth. "Someone threatened me. They said if I told anyone, they’d kill me." "Who?" Victor demanded, his tone sharp. "I don’t know who he is," Selena replied, shaking her head. "He always wore a mask. The day after I bought this man, h
When Suzy stormed back into the café, Selena’s expression faltered. "Miss Frost, why did you show up in the middle of the night? Are you here for a drink?" Slap!Suzy didn’t waste time on pleasantries, striking Selena hard across the face. "Where is he?" "You’ve already searched everywhere," Sel
Suzy felt a pang of guilt for lying to Grace, but she had no choice. If Grace ever learned the truth, it would devastate her. No matter what, the news of Dylan’s disappearance had to be kept from her. "Let that rascal talk to me," Grace said over the phone, still sounding uneasy. "I’ve been having
Suzy quickly made her way to the wine cellar described by the man, heading straight to the back where a large iron cage stood. Inside was indeed a man, but his face was so disfigured it was impossible to tell who he was. Suzy’s heart sank as she scanned his frame. One glance was enough to confir
Selena burst into tears. "I’m just a young woman who’s never even been in a relationship! How do you expect me to get married after this?" "Cut the act," Maya snapped. "I’ll ask you one last time—where is he?" "I don’t know who you’re talking about! I’ve never seen the person you’re looking for!
They followed Maya to one of Selena’s more remote properties. The location was incredibly secluded, surrounded by abandoned structures and barren land. Suzy could hardly believe that Selena would choose such a place to hide someone. Maya pointed to an old, dilapidated factory. "The person you’re
“You mean that man? I bought him because I felt sorry for him. You have no idea—his face was completely disfigured, covered in terrible sores and pus. You couldn’t even tell what he originally looked like,” Selena explained in a soft, gentle tone. “My parents raised me to help those in need, so whe
Suzy followed Maya to an estate called Crystal Garden. "Miss Whitmore, may I ask who you’re looking for? I can inform them for you," the gatekeeper said, stepping forward to block their way. Maya, already losing patience, snapped, "Tell Selena Thomas to get out here and see me!" "Our lady isn’
"I don’t care if I have to turn that entire city upside down—I will find Dylan!" Victor declared, his frustration boiling over. “There’s no need,” Suzy replied coldly, her expression unreadable. “I can handle this myself.” Despite the Whitmore family now targeting her, Suzy wasn’t concerned. In
