"Where's the patient's husband? Why hasn't he come yet? If he doesn't sign soon, it'll be too late,” a doctor urged."The patient's husband refuses to come. He said to let her fend for herself,” a nurse replied."Fend for herself..." When Suzy Frost, battered and barely clinging to life on the oper
The next morning, after spending yet another night at the hospital because Anne's pain had kept her from letting him leave, Dylan was finally on his way to the office. As they approached an intersection, he suddenly instructed the driver, "Take me to Bayview Heights."He had been wearing the same c
North Avenue was an hour and a half drive from South Avenue.Suzy arrived at the Goodwin family’s estate as promised in disguise. Using the pretense of treating an illness, she took the opportunity to hypnotize Martin. Unfortunately, she didn’t manage to extract any useful information.As she left,
"Two hundred million dollars?" Dylan barely hesitated. "Deal!"Three years ago, after being drugged during an ambush, a girl saved his life despite being seriously injured herself.After a night together, the girl disappeared by morning.It had been too dark that night to see her face clearly, but
Dylan’s eyes shifted back to the balcony, giving Desmond a subtle look.Desmond searched the area and reported, “Sir, there’s no one here.”“Call the doctor.” Dylan’s gaze turned cold. "And tell the hospital to lock down all exits. Not a soul steps foot inside or out without my explicit authorizatio
When Dylan spun the woman around to face him, his expression darkened instantly, like a shadow passing over his features.From behind, she had looked strikingly similar to Suzy, but her front was a different story. Her appearance was plain, a far cry from Suzy’s striking beauty.The fact that he’d e
At the hospital.The moment Dylan stepped through the door, Anne threw herself into his arms. She clung to him like a rag doll, trembling against him. "Dylan, I feel awful... I feel so terrible..."“Where does it hurt?” Dylan tried to push her away, but instead of letting go, she only clung tighter
Just as Dylan was about to pull off her mask, Suzy swiftly pulled a silver needle from her waist and stabbed it directly into his palm.“Ugh...” A sharp pain shot through Dylan’s hand, forcing him to let go. Seizing the moment, Suzy leaped off the balcony.From the eleventh floor, she landed grace
"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
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 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
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
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
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
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
Faced with Suzy’s questioning, Dylan let out a bitter laugh. “Because I don’t have much time left. It’s better if you all just think I’m already dead.”“What do you mean, you don’t have much time left?” Suzy’s voice dripped with sarcasm as she gave him a once-over. “It’s just a gunshot to the abdo
Unfortunately, Claude had already killed Avalon.By the time Suzy found her, she was completely lifeless, her breathing ceased, and her body cold. Yet, her eyes, wide open, were filled with guilt and regret that would never be spoken. Despite everything, Avalon had once been a part of her journey,
