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
Eager to hear what Allen had uncovered, Suzy found Dylan’s refusal to leave particularly irritating. “And what does it matter to you who he is?”Allen chimed in, “The boss is right. Who do you think you are? Why should we explain our relationship to you?”Judging from her reaction, it seemed less li
"Because I’m in love with you!"Dylan’s words hit Suzy harder than she’d expected, leaving her momentarily stunned. The bitterness of his disdain over the past three years was still fresh in her mind, and now, just days after their divorce, he had a complete change of heart?Even Allen, who’d suspec
"She’s his sister. How could I stop him from saving her?" Suzy said lightly, her expression calm. "So, I left him a few clues along the way." "You!" The man gritted his teeth, his face dark with fury. "Hah, do you really think this makes you a match for me?" Ignoring the pain in his shoulders,
Watching Suzy leap off the cliff right before her eyes, Diana felt as if her chest was about to collapse from the unbearable pain. "Sis, why? Why did you do this? I begged you not to! Why did you still go through with it? "What’s going to happen to my brother now? What about Grandma? How will the
"Diana, I ruined your life…" "No, you didn’t, Sis. You didn’t!" Diana said desperately, unable to bear seeing Suzy like this. "Don’t say that. None of this is your fault. If anyone is to blame, it’s those people with malicious intentions! "If it weren’t for them, you and my brother wouldn’t hav
"Jump, and I’ll let her go…" That sentence echoed in Suzy’s mind over and over. The man sneered when Suzy remained frozen. "What’s the matter? Didn’t you say Diana is like a sister to you? Turns out it’s all talk. When it comes down to it, you’re not willing to sacrifice your life for hers. "
The man’s gaze, eerily similar to Claude’s, was enough to make anyone second-guess. But to Suzy, the situation felt too suspicious.If this man was truly Claude, why go to such lengths to steal the ashes? Everything he had done seemed deliberately designed to make her believe it was Claude. If
Even though she saw him with her own eyes, Suzy still didn’t believe it. "I have to admit, your disguise skills are impressive…" Before she could finish, the man interrupted her with a soft laugh. "Suzy, even after seeing me with your own eyes, you still don’t believe I’m alive? Fine, come closer
The drive took about an hour and a half. When Suzy reached her destination, she got out of the car without hesitation.It was a mountaintop.The biting winter cold was relentless, with the wind howling and scattering Suzy’s hair. This mountain was a place she often came to when her mind was restl
The message from the caller couldn’t have been clearer: if Suzy wanted Diana to live, she would have to trade her own life.The phone wasn’t on speaker, so Dylan couldn’t hear the conversation. Suzy had no intention of telling him what was said, even as he pressed her for answers. "What did they sa
When Suzy received the photo sent by the enemy, a wave of rage surged through her entire body. The image showed Diana tightly bound, surrounded by a group of men with menacing expressions. The sender hadn’t said anything, but their intent was clear. Suzy instantly understood the threat. The th
