“Is Anne behind all of this? And how is she connected to Lisa?”With so many questions in mind, Suzy decided to confront Anne for answers. Initially, Suzy planned to go alone, but Allen insisted on accompanying her, and even Charlotte joined them. "You almost got into serious trouble this time.
Anne fought to keep her composure. "Suzy, I have no idea what you’re talking about. If you’ve got a problem with me, just tell me straight. There’s no need to beat around the bush.”Suzy sneered. "Oh, in that case, I won’t bother with pleasantries." She grabbed Anne by the hair and dragged her tow
The room fell deathly silent after Anne’s outburst. Charlotte was the first to react, grabbing Anne’s wrist to check her pulse. "She’s really pregnant!" Allen quickly followed, seizing her other hand. His expression shifted sharply. "She is!" Compared to their reactions, Suzy remained unnervin
The truth from back then had once been important to Dylan, but that was in the past. Now, the only thing that truly mattered to him was Suzy.His eyes sharpened instantly as he lowered his voice. "Anne, you’re not even qualified to threaten me." "This isn’t a threat. It’s an offer," Anne replied q
The silver needle pierced Dylan’s shoulder, but his expression remained stoic as he looked at Suzy. "Feeling better now?" That should’ve cooled her anger, right? It had to be said that Dylan’s emotional intelligence was painfully lacking in certain situations. He was utterly clueless when it cam
"Because I offended the Goodwin family, my father’s company went bankrupt, my mother is still rotting in prison, and I..." She pointed to herself with a bitter smile. "I’m left with nothing but scraps, barely surviving at your mercy. Is this what you call a good life?" Dylan’s expression was fil
Suzy glanced at Charlotte after hearing Allen's words. Though she remained silent, a shadow of gloom flickered in her eyes. Noticing Suzy's gaze, Charlotte furrowed her brows. "What? Are you starting to doubt me again? Who did I do all these for?" Her tone grew sharper as she went on, "Lisa betr
Suzy's expression was ice-cold. "Looking at your masked face kills any appetite I might have." This insufferable man never missed a single night to show up. Didn’t he have anything better to do than cling to her like this? "Then take it off for me!" he teased, leaning closer. "You might find wha
Finally, Drake stirred as if waking from a nap, letting out a yawn before speaking. "What did you just say?"It had to be said—Drake’s voice was surprisingly pleasant. Deep and rich, like the sound of a cello.Still, Suzy didn’t hold much hope for his appearance.After all, men in the underworld usu
Drake?The name alone carried an air of intimidation. "If that’s the case, then I might as well meet him," Suzy thought. "Who knows? I might even be able to use him." With that in mind, Suzy ignored the couple, allowing them to carry her to the car in the dead of night. The two seemed complete
Victor thought Dylan was wallowing in his emotions, but in reality, Dylan was busy tracking down Suzy’s whereabouts. Despite his efforts, he couldn’t uncover even the smallest trace. It was as if she were intentionally hiding herself. …And Dylan was right—Suzy was indeed deliberately concealing
Victor’s simple statement that Suzy was gone hit Dylan like a blow, nearly stopping his heart.He knew exactly what her silent departure meant, more clearly than anyone else.Even though he thought he was prepared for this moment, when it actually happened, he found himself unable to accept it.Her
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
