Another five days passed, and there was still no news of Dylan. Grace’s mental state had nearly reached its breaking point. Every day, she was in tears, overwhelmed with worry. As time dragged on, the pressure on Suzy grew heavier, especially since even working alongside Victor had yielded no re
It was impossible for someone as prominent as Dylan and an entire car to simply vanish without a trace. There had to be some clue somewhere.After some thought, Suzy decided to go there herself.The sooner Dylan was found, the sooner Grace could rest easy. …She drove to a small village downstream
Suzy stared at the man standing in front of her. It was Dylan, without a doubt, but something about his eyes was off—like he didn’t recognize her at all. Riley noticed it too and asked bluntly, "You don’t recognize Boss?" Dylan glanced at Riley but didn’t respond. Instead, he pointed at Victor
"He doesn’t remember who he is, where he’s from, or anything else about his life!" "Didn’t you see the missing person reports online?"Ava shook her head. "I don’t have a smartphone." Suzy’s gaze darkened, and she asked another question. "At the village meeting, you knew we were looking for him.
Suzy reacted quickly this time. As his lips were about to touch hers, she slapped her hand across his face and then kicked him hard in the calf. "Ah!" Dylan winced in pain, glaring at her with a look of deep resentment, as though she had wronged him. He even had the nerve to ask, "Why did you hi
His face looked a little pale. But honestly, Suzy didn’t care. Aside from his memory loss, there was nothing physically wrong with him. Without hesitation, she spoke up, "I’ve treated you for a while now, but there’s been no progress. Maybe my skills aren’t up to par, so you should find someone
In his final moments, he faced death without fear, using it as an opportunity to confess his feelings to her.It would be hard to say she wasn’t moved, after all, he had once been the man she loved, but it was only a flicker of emotion. So, with frustration, she snapped, "You’re about to die, and
There was no denying that the poison was extremely potent, and whoever was behind it was ruthless. Suzy frowned deeply as she examined Dylan’s weakened state. "Thank goodness Grandma isn’t here." If Grace saw him like this, she would be heartbroken. Suzy knew she had to get him back on his feet
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
