“They were such good people; they never did anything to hurt anyone. How could they end up like that?” The girl’s sobs tugged at Suzy’s heart, dragging her back to memories of her own family tragedy. She had once asked her aunt the same question. Her parents had been kind, decent people, so why
The grave had been restored so remarkably well that anyone less meticulous than Suzy wouldn’t have noticed the disturbance at all. Who would tamper with a dead person’s grave? Could it be the same person responsible for murdering her family? Wanting to uncover what had been done, Suzy ordered
The caller didn’t say anything further and hung up abruptly. About half an hour later, Yara knocked on the study door, carrying a small delivery box. “Suzy, a courier just dropped this off. He said it was for you. I thought it might be something important, so I brought it up right away.”Suzy rare
Suzy couldn’t possibly turn a blind eye to Yara’s fate, so she went without any hesitation.At the same time, she knew the other party must have made thorough preparations; otherwise, they wouldn’t have made such a demand. But so what? She had faced danger zones and walked through fire before; why
"What if someone was deliberately trying to mislead us?" The other person surprisingly admitted, "So, you’ve figured it all out! But I’m not Vicky—I’m her boyfriend. Vicky is already dead!""Dead?" Suzy’s investigation hadn’t indicated Vicky was dead. It only mentioned she had transferred to a scho
“If you’re coming for my life, you’d better make sure you have what it takes to claim it!"As Suzy snapped her fingers, the man’s expression immediately shifted to panic. “What are you doing?” “What do you think?” Suzy smirked. “Surely you didn’t actually believe I came here alone, did you?”She wa
Watching the scene unfold, Suzy’s dislike for the two men lessened ever so slightly. They were still insufferable, but at least they were useful.“Suzy, what do you plan to do with him?” Dylan asked.“Junior, it’s up to you how we deal with him!” Hawk chimed in.The two spoke almost in unison, then
Before the man could respond, Yara, who had been untied by Suzy during Dylan and Hawk's relentless assault, suddenly rushed forward.Grabbing the man by his hair, she yanked him upright, her eyes blazing with hatred. “My parents were nothing like what you said! They never did any of those things! We
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.
