Sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across Dylan’s sleeping face.“Mmm…”He squinted, raising a hand to shield his eyes. Suddenly, flashes of last night flooded his mind.Suzy had come to him. She’d said she forgave him, and then the two of them…His eyes flew open, and he tu
Recalling his past actions, Dylan let out a bitter laugh, his gaze on Anne filled with utter contempt. “Get out!”Anne scrambled to her feet, stumbling toward the door. Just as she reached it, she turned back to him. “Mr. Dylan, I won’t say a word about this, especially to Suzy. You don’t have to wo
“What did you just say?” Suzy looked at Hawk in disbelief. “Repeat that.”With a smile, Hawk obliged. “Starting today, I’ll be officially working at Harlow Corporation.”“And who approved that?” Suzy’s voice raised in annoyance.Hawk pointed directly at her. “You did, of course!”Suzy was left speec
Unable to tolerate him any longer, Suzy threw a punch straight at Hawk. “Just die already!”But Hawk caught her hand, wrapping it in his warm grip. “Such a temper, especially in this summer heat. It’s not good for your health.”She tried to pull her hand free, but the more she struggled, the tighter
Anne expected Suzy to be furious at her words, but Suzy only replied, “Makes sense.”So that was why he’d suddenly confessed to her, so full of apparent sincerity. For a moment, she’d nearly believed him—but it turned out to be nothing more than a petty scheme for revenge. Even if she had believed
That was why he’d held back from seeing Suzy—yet Anne had gone behind his back…Looking at Anne now, any remaining sentiment Dylan once had for her was gone. “My business with her is none of your concern, Anne. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do.”“Mr. Dylan, I swear, I wasn’t…” Anne’
Not only was Claude alive, but he stood before Dylan on perfectly functioning legs, holding Suzy close in a way that spoke of deep familiarity. So, he wasn’t dead after all.If this man wasn’t truly Claude, Suzy would never let him touch her so casually. It could only mean one thing: the whole thin
Dylan grabbed Hawk by the collar, his voice low and menacing. “I don’t care if you’re really Claude or just a fake—I’m warning you, don’t test my limits.”“Limits?” Hawk remained in Dylan’s grip, unfazed and calm. He raised an eyebrow in mock curiosity. “And what exactly are your limits?”Dylan’s ga
Back in his room, Dylan struggled to calm the storm raging in his mind. He knew his avoidance would only leave Suzy disappointed and angry, but he genuinely didn’t want to drag her down with him. Unable to sleep, he tossed and turned until he finally gave in and drank a bit of alcohol to settle
“I want to!” Allen replied urgently. “Riley asked me the same question, and I already told her that no matter what, even if there’s no baby, I still want to marry her.”“Is that really the truth?” Suzy pressed.“Of course!” Allen answered without hesitation. “I’ve never taken this lightly. When I sa
Back in her room, Suzy couldn’t stop replaying the image of Dylan avoiding her. The truth was, she didn’t truly want to reconcile with him. Even if it was for Grace and Diana, it wasn’t something she felt compelled to do.The real reason she had gone through all this trouble was that she didn’t wa
Dylan never expected that Suzy and Helena were working together! Everything—the drama, the accusations—was all an act orchestrated by Suzy to force his hand. She had teamed up with Helena to pull off this elaborate show. It wasn’t hard for Dylan to see through Suzy’s intentions after all this ef
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
