"Then find someone else!" "You just said yourself, no one knows my habits better than Desmond. If there really is someone more suitable," Dylan’s dark eyes locked intensely onto Suzy, "that person… is you."Suzy felt like she had just dug her own grave. She shouldn’t have meddled, but she genuinel
After all, he was a grown man. Even if he went missing in the middle of the night, it wasn’t necessarily cause for alarm. Perhaps he had some urgent matters to attend to. With a corporation as big as Wright Corporation, it wasn’t realistic to leave everything entirely in Desmond’s hands.But then ag
Dylan shook his head. "I do have plenty of enemies, and some of them are good with tech. But none of them could compare to you. Your skills surpass even mine, let alone anyone else’s."Suzy was speechless. Why did that sound like flattery? Still, as long as he was safe, Suzy decided to let it slid
After hearing Suzy’s blunt words, Dylan was left feeling deflated, like a wilted flower under frost. If he had held on to even a sliver of hope before, it had now been thoroughly extinguished. Suzy’s stance couldn’t have been clearer—there was no chance for him. But Dylan wasn’t one to give up s
“Suzy…” Dylan slowly regained consciousness, his voice weak. “It’s useless. Claude said before he died that he was the only one who had the cure for this poison. Now that he’s gone, there’s no one else who can undo it. So, stop trying. Honestly, there’s no hope left. This way, it’s fine…” “Don’t
Her brother had a bite mark behind his ear, left by her when they were children.During the time their parents passed away, the family and company were overwhelmed with responsibilities. Perhaps due to losing her mother, she became particularly sensitive. Apart from Grace, she wouldn’t let anyone e
Dylan quickly asked, “You seem upset. Is something wrong?” Suzy finally looked up. “Not at all. I just don’t like talking while I’m eating.” Dylan pressed his lips together and said nothing more. After breakfast, Suzy headed back to the pharmacy while Dylan left the house. He’d told Suzy he
When it came to his identity, there was no need for him to answer—Diana could already guess who he was. Who else could it be but Claude? But if it really was Claude, then that meant her brother… Diana didn’t dare let her thoughts go further. Faced with her pointed question, Dylan’s expressio
They were on the fourteenth floor, and he just jumped?Without hesitation, Suzy pressed the button on her watch. A thin silver wire shot out, wrapping tightly around the man’s waist mid-air. To her surprise, he didn’t appreciate the lifeline. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a knife and tri
Serena’s words lingered in Suzy’s mind, carving themselves deep: “That man looked quite a bit like you..."She had seen him before—the man Serena described was the same one she’d encountered that night at Evangeline’s estate. If what Serena said was true, that the man had lived here since childhoo
"Can you tell me more about the conflict between your sister and Helena?" Suzy asked, cutting to the heart of what she wanted to know. Evangeline didn’t strike her as the type to seize power by force. "It’s not much of a story—just a misunderstanding, really," Serena replied with a sigh. "Everyt
Serena was three years older than Evangeline, and the two sisters shared a decent relationship. In fact, they were each other’s last remaining family in the world. Their father had been nothing more than a servant, but his striking looks had caught the eye of their mother, the Empress. What starte
"I said, check if Nadia is sick!" Victor repeated, raising his voice for emphasis. "Nadia’s sick?" Graham asked, his exhaustion evident. "If I knew the answer, would I have called you?" Victor snapped. The whole point of this call was to confirm the truth. Finally, Graham seemed to shake off
"What do you mean, 'Nadia is dying'? She’s perfectly fine! Where does she even look remotely like she’s dying?" Victor snapped, his voice laced with disbelief. Not only was Nadia alive and well, but she seemed to be thriving—flirting with that younger guy like it was her new favorite pastime. Th
Seeing Dylan’s awkward expression, Suzy couldn’t help but smirk inwardly. Noticing Riley wasn’t around, she quickly asked, "Where’s Riley?" At the mention of her, Allen’s face darkened. "Don’t even bring it up. Last night, after you told me Riley was pregnant, I went to find her. We barely exchang
Dylan paused briefly on the other end of the line before speaking. "Helena really is dead." "Dead?" Suzy repeated, momentarily stunned. Had she been wrong all along? If Helena was truly dead, then it ruled her out as the mysterious woman. But if it wasn’t Helena, then who could it be? The woman’
Suzy paused for a moment and said, "That woman has been watching our every move from the shadows. Do you think it’s possible she swapped out the blood samples?" "Unlikely," Dylan replied. "If she did, why would she still be so adamant about keeping me out of this? If she’d already tampered with th
