Evangeline was thirty-five years old but maintained herself so well that she looked like she was in her twenties. After changing her clothes, she headed to the dining room for dinner, while Suzy stayed behind in her room to clean. Taking the opportunity while tidying up, Suzy discreetly searched
Hearing Suzy’s “Darling” nearly made Dylan choke on the other end of the line. He took several deep breaths before he managed to ease the ache in his chest. “It’s me.” The moment Suzy heard Dylan’s voice, her brows furrowed. “Why are you calling me so late? What do you want?” As soon as she sa
Did he have a personal grudge against Evangeline, or was he acting on someone’s orders? If it was the latter, who was the one pulling the strings behind him? Suzy felt that things were becoming increasingly complicated. What started as a simple quest to uncover Dylan’s enemy had spiraled into so
"I’ll never betray my master! If you’ve got the guts, kill me now!" Steven smiled at Suzy with a nonchalant shrug. "But think it through—if you kill me, you won’t survive either. My master will definitely avenge me!" Suzy returned the smile. "Oh, really? Then I’d love to see what kind of revenge
“She killed someone and got locked up by the local police!” Desmond quickly added. Allen pressed his lips together, his expression turning serious as he lifted his gaze. “She had a purpose for going to Xandria, and everything she did was for you.” “For me?” Dylan frowned, confused. “Yes,” Alle
Suzy was blindfolded and taken to an unknown location. Though her vision was obstructed, she relied on her other senses to memorize notable features along the way. For instance, halfway through the drive, the air was filled with the distinct fragrance of sunflowers on both sides of the road. She
"Of course." The woman walked over and sat on the sofa opposite Suzy. "Tell me, why do you think a woman would hate a man so deeply?" "...Because he hurt you?" "Exactly." The woman nodded without hesitation. "Years ago, I traveled to Zentora and, by chance, met Dylan. Using his power and influe
Just as Suzy was about to rip off the mask, the woman reacted swiftly, covering her face and turning away, putting distance between them. "Miss Frost, your actions suggest you’re going back on your word!”The woman’s voice was filled with fury. Suzy sneered. "Can’t I change my mind?" With that
The door slammed shut with an echoing bang, leaving Dylan rubbing his temples in frustration as Helena's parting words about not letting Suzy get away with it reverberated in his mind. This wasn’t going to end peacefully, that much was clear. Pressing his lips into a thin line, Dylan sighed and
Dylan froze at Suzy’s words, her calm yet cutting tone stopping him in his tracks. She was right. If he touched her, he’d have to take responsibility. But in his current situation… A bitter smile tugged at his lips as he prepared to move away from her. Yet, just as he started to shift, Suzy grab
With those words, Dylan stretched out an arm and pulled Suzy into his lap. "Why don’t you join me in testing it out?" "What nonsense are you spouting?" she snapped, trying to push him away. "Helena’s still waiting for you. Letting her misunderstand wouldn’t be good." "She’s no one to me," Dylan
After Helena left, Suzy couldn’t help but imagine Dylan’s face turning green with frustration, and the thought instantly brightened her mood. That would teach him a lesson about throwing his attitude her way!She was just about to head for a shower when her phone buzzed. It was Simon. "Brother,
"Not yet!" "If you’re still awake, could you come to our room for a moment?""Sorry, but I already promised Mr. Wright that I wouldn’t get involved in anything between you and him.”"I see." Helena pressed her lips together before adding, "Actually, it’s not really about getting involved. I just wa
Halfway through the meal, Helena excused herself to use the restroom. Riley, sensing an opportunity, decided she should give Dylan and Suzy some time alone. Perhaps they had things to say that couldn’t be discussed with Helena constantly hovering nearby. With that thought, Riley found a quick excu
"Isn’t this a bit too much?" Riley exclaimed, eyeing the table piled high with food. "How are you going to finish all this?" Suzy replied casually, "Helena’s joining us later." Riley paused, then gave Suzy a thumbs-up. "You’re really nailing this ‘best ex-wife ever’ thing. You’ve taken it to a w
Riley hadn’t expected Allen to propose to her. From the way he looked, it was clear he had planned this in advance. This moment—this exact scene—was something she had dreamed of for years. Ever since falling in love with Allen, she had longed for this day. But back then, his heart and mind had b
Her clueless expression was a rare sight, and it instantly amused Allen, who chuckled. "Oh, it’s there. A strong smell. Maybe try sniffing again?" Unaware of the mischief glinting in Allen’s eyes, Riley earnestly leaned in for another sniff. "What smell? I can’t catch anything at all!" Suddenly,
