“I don’t know!” Wendy denied flatly. “Even though he’s my son, he stopped sharing much with me after he grew up. Especially in the past two years, he’s been habitually leaving early and returning late. Sometimes, he wouldn’t come home for several days. “Even when he does come back, he locks himsel
As soon as Suzy mentioned bringing the man she loved, Wendy immediately grew nervous. However..."Even if you call him here, I can't do anything about it!" Wendy declared stubbornly."Is that so?" Suzy smiled faintly. "Then it's perfect to have him come over and help you think of a solution. For so
Albert truly loved Wendy, so after hearing her claims, he began harboring some resentment toward her parents. Meanwhile, Wendy deliberately spoke ill of Albert in front of her parents, accusing him of being materialistic, looking down on her family, and treating her poorly. She even went as far as
Wendy’s eyes filled with tears as she looked at Suzy. “I don’t know. I really don’t know!”“Wendy, my patience is wearing thin!” Suzy tightened her grip. “This is your last chance. Where exactly is my father being kept?”“I don’t know!” Wendy shook her head again. “At this point, I have no reason to
"So what?" George’s mind was completely consumed by Charlotte’s influence. "We have another life after this one. Miss Charlotte told me that even if we can’t be together in this life, she’ll make it up to me in the next!""The next life?" Suzy couldn’t help but laugh. "I was wondering what kind of h
Seeing Dylan, George’s initial panic subsided significantly. He sneered, "Well, if it isn’t Mr. Wright himself! Here to help your ex-wife, I assume? I wonder if she’ll even appreciate it, considering how much I’ve heard she can’t stand you—"Smack!Before George could finish his sentence, Desmond’s
Suzy had no expectations whatsoever.…It had to be said—George’s stubbornness was truly remarkable, even tougher than a dying mule. They had tried multiple forms of torture, yet he refused to crack, clinging to his silence despite being on the brink of collapse. Not a hint of surrender crossed his
The woman disguised as Charlotte received Dylan’s command and began thinking of a way to casually ask George where the "old place" was without arousing suspicion. Any misstep could make him suspicious, and all their efforts would be wasted.After much deliberation and realizing no direct approach se
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.
