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
Just as Suzy’s hand was about to touch the mask, the man, despite being immobilized, suddenly opened his eyes. His sharp gaze locked onto her, and he spoke with a quiet intensity, "So, have you made up your mind?" Those simple words were enough to make Suzy pull her hand back without hesitation.
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.
