Victor rambled on, but Dylan only latched onto one word, "Woman?""Yeah…” Victor frowned, suddenly realizing something. “Wait, you didn’t even know if T was a man or woman? Then why would she say you knew her information?”Dylan set down his glass. “Didn’t know before, but I do now.”Victor looked e
"You’re kidding, right?" Suzy scoffed, feeling like Allen had to be out of his mind. "He had zero interest in me for three years, and now, post-divorce, he's suddenly interested?"“Then why would he help you?” Allen countered. “With his high standards, he’d never step in unless he had something to g
Suzy cast a glance at Allen, crossing her arms. “I am getting a bit worn out. Why don’t you take over for me?”Allen tossed the documents back onto the table. “He’s not worth it.”He was finding that cripple Claude more insufferable by the day. No way would he tolerate slaving away for Claude.Suzy
"Mr. Dylan, Tina agreed to meet with you!" Desmond burst into the room, forgetting to knock in his excitement.Dylan raised an eyebrow, surprised. "She agreed?"Desmond nodded eagerly. "Her assistant just replied, saying she's willing to meet. Today at three in the afternoon, Room 1008 at the Royal
Dylan let out a dry laugh. "As you just mentioned, she's my ex-wife. To me, she’s nothing more than a stranger now."A stranger...That was exactly the outcome she had wanted, yet somehow, an inexplicable heaviness pressed against her chest.Suppressing the unwelcome feeling, Suzy replied softly, "T
Seeing the two of them emerge from the elevator, Suzy frowned slightly. She had timed it perfectly, thinking they would have already left, only to end up running right into them.Was Dylan developing a habit of these surprise returns?As he looked at her, clearly not expecting to see her there, a st
“It’s really strange. Before this, the Harlow family hadn't shown any interest in this field. Otherwise, with the project nearing its official launch, there should have been some news by now about them signing experts in this field. “The project team they’re using is composed mostly of recent gradu
Suzy decided not to tell Claude about the patent application for the project just yet. Nor did she plan to mention Dylan’s interference. If she could keep things off his plate, she would; all he needed was to stay positive and focus on his recovery.After two rounds of therapeutic baths and physical
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
