When Victor received Suzy’s call on the plane, telling him to come back and pick up Dylan, he thought he must have been dreaming, his longing for Dylan playing tricks on him.Even now, seeing Dylan standing before him, he still found it a little hard to believe.To test his reality, he quickly stepp
The group returned to Ashbourne City, and Suzy accompanied Dylan back to the Wright family’s estate. No matter what, she needed to personally send him over to see Grace. As for the poison in his system… Back on the island, while waiting for Victor to pick up Dylan, Suzy had already checked his
Before Grace could say anything, Dylan spoke first. “I’ll walk you out.”Catching his hint, Suzy nodded. “Alright.”As the two of them left, Victor immediately took the lead in stirring up gossip. “Did you guys see that? The way they were exchanging looks? Especially Suzy—her attitude toward Dylan i
Not long after Suzy arrived at Hillside Villa, her phone rang. It was a call from Dylan. Thinking he might be feeling unwell, she answered, “Are you not feeling okay?” “No, it’s not that. I just wanted to ask if you got home safely.” Suzy took a deep breath. “Dylan, unless it’s something about
After tidying up her things, Suzy prepared to head out. There were a few herbs she needed to buy.Unable to sleep in the early hours of the night, she had spent the time studying the poison in Dylan’s system. One of the reasons Claude’s poison was so difficult to counteract was that she had never kn
Nadia’s steps faltered. “The Steele family gave me this life. If it weren’t for them raising me back then, I would’ve died miserably on the streets. So, everything I do now—it’s what I owe them.”“And do you think it’s worth repaying them with your life?” Suzy stepped closer. “Nadia, you’re not movi
"After all these years, I didn’t gain much, but at least I became a decent cook.”Suzy didn’t hold back her agreement. "Alright." Watching Nadia walk away, Suzy turned and left as well. She spent the next two days focused on developing the antidote. During that time, Dylan hadn’t called her even
When it came to being oblivious to romantic cues, Suzy could easily claim the top spot—no competition needed.Under normal circumstances, Dylan should have been left speechless by her lack of response. But, true to form, he seized the moment. “I know. That’s why I need to tell you what I truly feel
“Who are you? Why did you catch me?” The little boy burst into tears as soon as he saw Suzy. “I want to go home! I want my mom!”“Don’t cry, little one,” Suzy said gently, trying to soothe him. “I just want to ask you a question. If you answer it, I’ll take you back to your mom.”“I don’t even know
Following Suzy's instructions, all individuals who had been at the orphanage with Charlotte during that time were thoroughly investigated, but no one suspicious was found.Back then, aside from Wendy having a closer relationship with Charlotte, she had no other significant connections with anyone at
Allen knew Suzy was probably furious—if it were him, he would be too. But... “I just stepped away to use the bathroom. It couldn’t have been more than three minutes. When I left the room, he was still unconscious. By the time I came back, he was gone.” Allen’s voice carried a hint of disbelief. “I
Suzy arrived at the café Dylan had arranged for her meeting with the woman. The moment she saw her, she got straight to the point. “I believe Dylan has mentioned the purpose of this meeting, so I’ll skip the formalities…” She placed a checkbook on the table in front of the woman. “This is worth tw
“You’re lying to me! You liar!” Timothy shouted as he bolted toward the door. Suzy quickly chased after him. “Dad, wait a moment! She’ll be back soon. I’m not lying—she’ll really be back soon!” “Get lost! Who’s your dad? I don’t even know you. Stop calling me that…” Timothy shoved Suzy aside.
But when Wendy turned around, there was no one there. She had distinctly heard that voice, though. Could it have been her imagination? She searched the area thoroughly but found nothing. It seemed increasingly likely that it had all been in her mind. Without staying much longer, Wendy left. Un
In his heart, there was only Charlotte. If the curse’s poison flared up, it would undoubtedly kill him. After Charlotte’s death, the prolonged absence from her caused your father’s mental state to deteriorate. Now, he’s…" Wendy pressed her lips together, leaving the rest unsaid. "Just prepare your
After coming to terms with her decision, Wendy went straight to Suzy. "You’ve been looking for your father all this time, haven’t you? I’ll tell you where he is." Although Suzy had prepared herself for the moment Wendy might reveal the truth, hearing those words still filled her with a surge of ex
Wendy had never truly cared for George over the years, largely because she had no feelings for her husband. She had always known about George’s entanglement with Charlotte, yet she never stopped him. Deep down, she didn’t see George as her son. His birth had been nothing more than an accident. Aft
