Claude chuckled. "How about you follow through with your own advice before telling me?"Suzy scrunched her nose but didn’t respond, waving him farewell as she turned to leave.Watching her retreating figure, Claude’s previously clear eyes darkened, becoming unreadable.The next day.Thanks to Claude
After Suzy saved Martin, Mark, naturally came by to thank her.“Miss Frost, I can’t express my gratitude enough for saving my father.”Though Mark was already fifty, he looked no older than his mid-thirties. He wore a finely tailored black suit, perfectly pressed, with every hair in place, and the g
As Allen continued to go on about Dylan, Suzy felt the urge to kick him again. “Keep up this nonsense, and I won’t hesitate to make you mute!”Allen rolled his eyes, then handed her the peeled apple.Suzy took a bite. “How’s Anne’s situation?”She hadn’t reviewed the surveillance footage lately—part
“What are you doing here?” Suzy’s tone was sharp, glaring at the man who shouldn’t be there and unsure how long he’d been standing there. Dylan, who was casually washing some fruit, looked up at her.Following his gaze, Suzy suddenly realized her pants were still half-down. Her face grew warm, than
“My brother is really hopeless. Grandma sent him here to look after you, not to start a fight. When I get back, I’m telling Grandma all about this, so she’ll give him a good scolding!”“Grandma sent him?” Suzy blinked. She’d assumed he’d secretly followed her, finding out about her accident just to
“Aunt?”Suzy was stunned to see her long-lost aunt, Charlotte Frost, standing there. It had been years since they last met.Back when the entire Frost family was murdered overnight, it was Charlotte who had risked everything in the chaos to save Suzy. Charlotte had even arranged for Suzy to join a
"Not long ago, didn’t you ask Allen to relay a message to me? You suspected that the assassination attempt three years ago, along with your parents’ and brothers’ murders, might be linked to the Goodwin family?" Charlotte asked. "This grudge isn’t only yours; it’s mine too, and revenge shouldn’t res
Thinking it might be someone she knew, Suzy looked up—only to see a complete stranger standing in the doorway.The man was tall, easily over six feet, with a muscular build, but his expression was off, almost unhinged. Charging toward her, he yelled, “Dear, come here! Let’s sleep together!”Seeing
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.
