The sudden hypnosis that drove Timothy to set himself on fire now made perfect sense. It was all a ploy to draw Suzy away from Dylan’s side. Why else would they do something so drastic, knowing full well she would have someone tailing her father?At first, Suzy thought it was meant as a warning, b
“Not yet, I was just about to,” Grace replied. Then she asked, “Have you eaten?”“I’ve already had lunch!” Suzy forced a light tone. “Grandma, why haven’t you eaten yet? Doesn’t Diana usually get hungry around noon?”Diana was known for eating very little in the morning and usually got hungry earl
Suzy couldn’t possibly refuse Diana’s invitation. After all, it was tied to the safety of the real Diana. Without any hesitation, she replied: “Send me the address.”The response came almost instantly, a clear indication that the other side anticipated her reaction and prepared everything in advan
Leaning close to his ear, Suzy softly called out, “Elliot Hayes, it’s me, your mentor. If you can hear my voice, open your eyes and look at me…”Before anything could happen, the person posing as Diana spoke up. “Don’t waste your energy. He can’t hear you at all! “Suzy, you’re not as powerful as yo
Hearing Suzy agree to her demand, Diana's excitement was palpable. “Since you’ve already decided, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and do it!”“I’ll do it,” Suzy replied evenly, gripping the knife tightly. “But I have one condition. Let me meet the person who hypnotized Elliot. That’s all I ask.
As Suzy pressed the blade further in, the woman’s face grew even paler, almost ghostly. Despite the pain, she remained defiant. “Is that all you’ve got? If you’re so capable, just kill me already!”“The game’s only just begun,” Suzy said coldly, giving the knife a slight twist.“Ah!” The sensation
Suzy wasn’t someone who could be hurt so easily.Effortlessly dodging the woman’s attack, Suzy grabbed her wrist with lightning speed. A sharp crack echoed through the room.“Ah! My hand!” the woman screamed.First her face, now her hand. The woman had known Suzy was no pushover, but experiencing h
Elliot moved in the same unnatural way.Suzy stood still, waiting until he was close enough. Then, with swift precision, she looped a thin silver wire around his neck. Holding the wire tightly with her left hand, she used her right hand to quickly press several acupoints on his body.Frozen in pla
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.
