The man, his arms crossed, stood in front of Suzy with an air of arrogance, his bulky frame and rough beard giving him an imposing presence. “How about a game, Miss Suzy?” he suggested with a smirk.Suzy’s eyes narrowed. “Release Diana first, and I’ll play along.”“Bold offer, but Diana stays,” he
As the bullet left the chamber, Suzy’s reflexes kicked in, and she twisted her head just in time. A fraction of a second slower, and it would’ve been over. Only someone with her skills could’ve managed such a move; for anyone else, dodging that shot would’ve been out of reach.Seeing her dodge, the
Setting him facedown on the bed, Suzy prepared for a makeshift procedure. The only supplies available were a few medications she’d brought along for Diana’s scar treatment—nothing for pain relief or anesthesia. Just as before, he’d have to tough it out.To his credit, Dylan didn’t make a sound, tho
"I never touched Anne!" Except for that one time three years ago. But that incident happened without his knowledge, so technically, he wasn't lying. Dylan felt it was time to clarify things with Suzy. "Suzy, not only have I never touched Anne, but my feelings for her aren't..." "Sis, sis..."
With a slight wave, his subordinate stepped forward and leaned in as he whispered a few words in his ear...**Following the lead, Allen spent nearly two days investigating before finally making some headway. He placed the results on Suzy’s desk. “Boss, I tracked down that serial number.”Suzy set d
Suzy cracked the multi-layer encrypted site in just five minutes. Although its contents were classified, there was little of value to her—the information she sought was on the squadron's leader. She combed through the entire site, but there wasn’t a single clue about his identity.Unwilling to give
"Not only do you have an overactive imagination, but you're also ridiculously self-centered!" she scoffed, amazed at how he could twist such unrelated things into a connection. Seeing him about to speak again, Suzy pulled her hand free from his grip and held up a ‘pause’ gesture. "If you want that
This question was one he’d already answered, so her bringing it up again clearly meant she hadn’t been satisfied with his previous response. Suzy wouldn’t doubt him without reason—something must have pointed her suspicions back in his direction.Seeing Dylan stay silent, her gaze sharpened. “Why are
As Dylan and Victor stepped out, they saw Helena standing in front of Suzy's door, alternately pounding on it with her hands and kicking it with her feet. "Suzy, you won’t open the door because you’re guilty, aren’t you?" Helena yelled, her voice dripping with rage. "Of course you are! You played t
Victor had prepared a lot to say, but before he could even get a chance, Helena kicked him out, not even letting him step inside.Returning empty-handed, Dylan frowned deeply. "You can't even handle such a trivial matter!""I don’t like hearing that from you. What do you mean by ‘such a trivial matt
The door slammed shut with an echoing bang, leaving Dylan rubbing his temples in frustration as Helena's parting words about not letting Suzy get away with it reverberated in his mind. This wasn’t going to end peacefully, that much was clear. Pressing his lips into a thin line, Dylan sighed and
Dylan froze at Suzy’s words, her calm yet cutting tone stopping him in his tracks. She was right. If he touched her, he’d have to take responsibility. But in his current situation… A bitter smile tugged at his lips as he prepared to move away from her. Yet, just as he started to shift, Suzy grab
With those words, Dylan stretched out an arm and pulled Suzy into his lap. "Why don’t you join me in testing it out?" "What nonsense are you spouting?" she snapped, trying to push him away. "Helena’s still waiting for you. Letting her misunderstand wouldn’t be good." "She’s no one to me," Dylan
After Helena left, Suzy couldn’t help but imagine Dylan’s face turning green with frustration, and the thought instantly brightened her mood. That would teach him a lesson about throwing his attitude her way!She was just about to head for a shower when her phone buzzed. It was Simon. "Brother,
"Not yet!" "If you’re still awake, could you come to our room for a moment?""Sorry, but I already promised Mr. Wright that I wouldn’t get involved in anything between you and him.”"I see." Helena pressed her lips together before adding, "Actually, it’s not really about getting involved. I just wa
Halfway through the meal, Helena excused herself to use the restroom. Riley, sensing an opportunity, decided she should give Dylan and Suzy some time alone. Perhaps they had things to say that couldn’t be discussed with Helena constantly hovering nearby. With that thought, Riley found a quick excu
"Isn’t this a bit too much?" Riley exclaimed, eyeing the table piled high with food. "How are you going to finish all this?" Suzy replied casually, "Helena’s joining us later." Riley paused, then gave Suzy a thumbs-up. "You’re really nailing this ‘best ex-wife ever’ thing. You’ve taken it to a w
