Charlotte’s sudden act stunned everyone in the room, catching them completely off guard.Suzy froze for several seconds before snapping back to reality. She rushed forward, snatching the knife from Charlotte’s hand and grabbing tissues from the table to press against the wound. "Leave me alone!" C
The figure stepped beside Suzy, bowing respectfully toward Charlotte’s body. Suzy didn’t turn her head, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the visitor. Seeing the familiar mask on his face, she let out a derisive snort. "Ridiculous." Even after his identity had been exposed, h
Suzy never expected Charlotte to specifically mention Hawk in her final letter. It was clear her aunt genuinely liked him, but... Sensing someone behind her, Suzy quickly folded the letter and tucked it away. Before she could fully conceal it, a hand reached over and snatched it from her grasp.
Rejected by Suzy, Dylan felt a sharp pang in his chest. "I took Anne away because she had the answers I’ve been searching for…" He began explaining his reasons for keeping Anne after everything that had happened. After a moment’s pause, he continued, "I’ve never loved Anne. Three years ago, she
“The person who saved you back then... actually, I have no idea who it was…”Before Anne could finish her sentence, Dylan grabbed her by the neck. “You’re playing games with me?”Anne frantically clawed at his hand. “Wait, let me finish speaking…”Only then did Dylan loosen his grip. “Speak!”“When
"I’ve only met her twice, so I don’t know much about her," Anne said, her words a mix of truth and lies.It was true that she hadn’t interacted much with Charlotte. The lie was… Even with limited interactions, she still had some understanding of Charlotte. Someone capable of deceiving her own ni
Dylan had the pendant replicated based on Anne’s sketch and then issued a public bounty. "Anyone who can provide valid information about the original pendant will receive a cash reward of four million dollars!" When Hawk saw the announcement, a sense of urgency surged within him. “It looks like
“The last thing I said?” Diana thought back carefully. “I was just wondering what the owner of that hawk-shaped pendant looks like.” Suzy froze. So, the savior Dylan was searching for… was her? After hanging up, Suzy couldn’t calm the storm in her heart. Three years ago, they had both been dru
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.
