"Just when my mother thought she had found the love of her life, she discovered that your scumbag father was already married with children. Heartbroken, she returned to Xandria, only to realize she was pregnant with me. "Every other child had a father. But not me. And people never let me forget it
Helena couldn't accept it at all. After so many years, she'd been hating the wrong person. "Dylan, you've done all this just to clear your father's name! "I investigated this countless times back then. It was your father, not anyone else. So, stop making excuses!" She was convinced she hadn't mi
Serena watched Suzy cautiously. "Of course, if you don’t want to go, that’s fine too. I just think this might be a good opportunity for you and Evangeline to reconcile."Suzy thought for a moment. "I think you’re right! I was indeed too impulsive. I acted without investigating and ended up killing s
Serena wasn’t a fool. At this point, how could she not see what was really happening? “Damn it, so Suzy has been playing dumb all along!” she cursed internally.It all made sense now. She’d thought Suzy was so easy to manipulate, but it turned out she had been setting her up the whole time. Thou
In that moment, everything suddenly made sense to Suzy. Serena, whose schemes had been laid bare, swallowed nervously but refused to admit anything. "I never thought that way! I’m Evangeline’s sister. No one in this world loves her or cares for her more than I do. "Others might envy her, but not
Serena didn’t hesitate for a moment. It was as if Evangeline wasn’t her sister, but her sworn enemy. The bullet sped toward Evangeline’s heart, and she stood frozen in place, sorrow clouding her eyes as she stared at Serena without flinching. "Move! Get out of the way!" Suzy shouted, her voice s
"What she’s done is nothing compared to what you’ve done!" Suzy couldn’t help but laugh out of sheer frustration at Serena’s shamelessness. "Now you remember you’re her sister? But just a moment ago, when you were screaming about killing her, did it ever cross your mind that you’re supposed to be h
At this moment, Serena’s sudden statement didn’t fool Suzy or Simon. They knew exactly what she was trying to do.Suzy’s lips curled into a mocking smile. "Let me guess, you want to make a deal? You’ll tell me where my father is, and in exchange, I’ll spare your life?"Serena hesitated for a moment
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.
