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
But Suzy was perplexed. When she had previously searched for Charlotte’s hideout, she had thoroughly combed the estate and found no trace of her father. Where exactly had Charlotte hidden him?The woman in disguise, following Dylan’s plan, stayed in the car for now to avoid raising suspicion. She tu
In an inconspicuous spot, they discovered a hidden mechanism leading to an underground basement—a basement Suzy had never known existed in her own home. Yes, even as a member of the Frost family, Suzy had no idea such a large underground space was concealed beneath the estate. The mechanism was co
She cut him off before he could continue. "Giving up your own preferences for someone else is a painful thing to do. I’ve been through it myself, and in the end, all it left me with was regret. That’s why I don’t want you blaming me in the future like I blame myself now. Do you understand what I’m s
"Still haven’t decided?" Suzy urged, breaking the silence as Dylan remained unresponsive. "I’ll give you three more seconds. If you don’t answer, I’ll take it as you are passing up this chance."Dylan’s lips pressed even tighter together before he finally said, "I’ll take it.""OK!" Suzy smiled slyl
"I don’t think they’ve found her yet. If they had, even without us reaching out, he’d have contacted us by now." So much time had passed without any updates from Victor’s side, which clearly meant they hadn’t found Nadia. This reminded Desmond of the time Suzy went missing. It had taken ages to tr
Did the woman pretending to be Charlotte reveal any flaws in front of George? If not, why was she nowhere to be found at the Frost family’s old residence? And if she had been discovered, why hadn’t he shown any reaction? Still, Suzy warned Dylan to advise the fake Charlotte to be extra cautious,
The whole situation started because the housekeeper had prepared something for breakfast that Charlotte didn’t like, and Timothy wasn’t happy about it. He had been yelling at the housekeeper about Charlotte’s preferences ever since.Charlotte this, Charlotte that… These days, Timothy’s entire worl
The most immediate and effective antidote to Scarlet Veil was… intimacy between a man and a woman. Was this a deliberate test to see if she would help Dylan? Ha… Suzy already had a pretty good idea who might be behind this. Elliot Hayes. Other than him, she couldn’t think of anyone else. W
The young woman nodded. “Yes, I’ve been on duty since 5 p.m., and I’ll be here until 5 a.m. tomorrow.” Suzy continued, “Do you recall a woman, about sixty or seventy years old, who came in two or three hours ago to buy some medicine?” The young woman responded almost instantly. “Of course, I rem
Suzy arrived at the hospital Desmond had mentioned and immediately saw Dylan lying on the hospital bed. His exposed skin was covered in red, swollen rashes—his face, arms, neck—every visible area looked inflamed and alarming. The moment Dylan saw Suzy, he frowned and turned to Linda. “Didn’t I tel
After saying that, Dylan turned to Suzy and said, "I’m fine. Worst case, I’ll take a few cold showers. You should head back now. Don’t let anything else happen with your father."A strategy to retreat and advance?Suzy chuckled softly, then tossed the antidote toward Dylan. “No need for all that tro
Without giving Dylan a chance to refuse, Linda. Lane darted off, chasing after Suzy. It was already quite late, and Suzy was walking briskly. By the time Linda caught up, Suzy was outside the gates, about to get into her car. “Mrs. Wright, wait a moment...” Seeing the housekeeper out of breath
"Of course not! Even if you weren’t her granddaughter, I’d still like you just as much!” Grace quickly explained. “Don’t think I’m making this up—I mean every word!”“Don’t worry, Grandma, I was just teasing you!” Suzy hugged her gently. “It’s late. Let’s get some rest.”“Alright, Suzy. I truly hope
Grace did have plenty to talk about with Suzy, though most of it was spent persuading her not to forgive Dylan, insisting they weren’t a good match.“Grandma, have you forgotten that you’re his biological grandmother?” Suzy couldn’t help but laugh. What kind of grandmother sides against her own gran
It wasn’t just an excuse—Grace truly had been thinking about Suzy lately. After all, it had been a long time since they’d seen each other. Suzy had also been thinking about Grace and knew exactly what Dylan was trying to do. The woman posing as Charlotte was one of his operatives, helping them f
