Chapter 92: Liam's Personal Attire

Suzy couldn’t believe her mother actually called Jeffrey! Suzy's eyebrows furrowed deeply, and she felt a powerful surge of anger welling up inside her, like an unstoppable force.The feeling of being controlled and coerced in every aspect was really infuriating her."Why didn't you tell me and just go contact him yourself? I told you he's busy, but he agreed to your call just to show you some respect!" "Are you interrogating me?" Melissa's tone became just as fiery. "Everything I do, I do it for whom? You got married without even telling me, and now you're blaming me! I just want him to do more for you, to spend more time with you. Why are you so upset about this?”Suzy slammed her phone down loudly.That same old phrase again."For your own good!"But what exactly did "for your own good" mean?

Chapter 94: Definitely Jeffrey’s Voice

Liam granted Suzy the official status and legal confirmation of marriage! This was something the Park family had always desired for him to give Sophia!"For now, don't let her know." Liam took his mother's condition into account, but he also realized that if he didn't secure Suzy's commitment now and make the most of the current situation, he might lose the chance later on."Yeah, don't worry. I won't say anything." Sophia took a few steps back. "Since you don't need my help, I won't disturb your rest. Get some sleep."After saying this, Liam only nodded faintly.He didn't even say goodnight and simply closed the door.He walked back to the bed, and suddenly, he recalled the conversation he had overheard through Suzy's phone during the meeting."Suzy, can I come in?""Don't mention it. I thought even during overtime work, you need to eat something! If it weren't for Wendy insisting on buying a few pieces of clothing, we could have come back earlier. “Tomorrow, I'll ask her to prepar

Chapter 95: Divorce Him

On the evening before Melissa's surgery, Suzy didn't spend the night at Wendy's house; instead, she stayed with her mother at the hospital. Suzy understood that even though Melissa appeared brave and fearless, it was only natural for her to feel anxious inside, considering the seriousness of the upcoming surgery."The doctor said the success rate of your surgery this time is very high, and in another ten days or so, you'll be able to leave the hospital."Suzy could only say some positive things to ease her mother's worries."I know, the lead surgeon came and talked to me yesterday." Melissa had been instructed to fast before the surgery, so she had to lie in bed and minimize her movements, with even limited water intake. "You don't need to worry about me; I'm more worried about you."She was gently wiping her mother's arm and hesitated for a moment. "There’s nothing you should be worrying about me.""Both of you are legally married but haven't held a wedding yet! Is that Jeff guy i

Chapter 96: We Are Not Compatible

That feeling was just terrible!Worse than working overtime for a whole week.Melissa suddenly sighed too. "Suzy, I realize I shouldn't constantly plant these negative thoughts about marriage in your mind. Eventually, you'll have to settle down and build a stable home. But I just can't help it! I can't shake the feeling that all men have ulterior motives.”Thinking back, Suzy's father had also been kind and perfect, drawing Melissa in so deeply that she couldn't break free from his hold."Mom, don't dwell on those thoughts. You're going to have your surgery tomorrow, so get some rest." She tucked her mother in and smiled. "Finally, you’re getting your surgery, and for me, nothing else matters."Suzy had endured so much for this day!After putting her mother to sleep, she found herself strangely unable to sleep.She got up and logged into the internal server of Park Group on her computer, intending to organize some documents, but her eyes always wandered to Liam's account.He was still

Chapter 97: Rejecting Jeffrey

Suzy didn’t care if she had overthought about his intention to help her or if it was just her self-imposed assumptions, she chose to be upfront and clear about everything.Her bluntness had left Jeffrey somewhat stunned."I don't care about these things."His response was resolute.In fact, since the very first moment he laid eyes on Suzy, Jeffrey had a strong impression of her. Coupled with Wendy’s continuous praises, he became increasingly interested in this girl. However, because he previously had a stable girlfriend, he didn't entertain any other thoughts. After his breakup and Wendy’s suggestion of setting him up with Suzy, he couldn’t deny he was genuinely interested in her.It wasn't just because Suzy was beautiful; it was more about her determination and strength that made a man want to protect her."But I do care," she stated calmly. "I want a marriage based on equality, but in this situation, I would only become a burden to a family.""How could that be? Even if Mrs. Chase

Chapter 98: Found a Leftover Condom

Did Liam send it?Suzy immediately went to the door to ask the two bodyguards, but they claimed not to know.She took out her phone, thinking of calling Liam to inquire, but her fingertip hovered over the number and, in the end, didn't press it.Even if it was a gift from him, what could it change?At most, it was just a gesture of care from a boss to a subordinate....Ashington, in a hotel suite.This was the fifth time Liam had checked his phone, and there were still no messages.Could it be that the instructions weren't delivered to the ward? Or perhaps, she simply didn't want to contact him at all.Suzy was always so cautious and polite to everyone, but when it came to receiving something from him, she didn’t even acknowledge it!Finally—The phone rang.Liam answered it directly, but it was the voice of Clive on the other end."You picked up fast. Who are you expecting a call from?""Just happened to be using my phone."Clive sounded exasperated. "Don't think I don't know, you'r

Chapter 99: There’s a Girl He Likes

"How on earth do you have this?!" Wendy, who was paying close attention, was almost shocked when she saw it!In Wendy's eyes, her friend hadn't even been in a relationship, let alone had any male companions around. She couldn't have dreamt of the day when she'd come across something like this in her friend's possession. Suzy felt equally embarrassed. She hadn't intended to play a role as an innocent, pure-hearted individual, but she did find this matter quite private and felt awkward about someone discovering it."It's just... left over."Wendy blinked her eyes, struggling to process this statement."You don't even have a boyfriend, so who did you use it with?""It’s just someone whom I share mutual benefits with."Knowing Wendy couldn't be easily fooled, Suzy could only evade the topic. Furthermore, this description she provided seemed to accurately fit Liam.Wendy, upon hearing this, immediately slapped her on the shoulder and her gossip-loving spirit ignited. "Wow, you! You wen

Chapter 100: Going to the Airport to Fetch Liam

As if afraid that Suzy might fall in love, Wendy repeated several times, emphasizing that she should just sleep with him and not get emotionally involved.Eventually, the conversation shifted to Jeffrey."My cousin really likes you. If you're not considering it now, when you eventually want a boyfriend, you should definitely think about him."Suzy sighed. "I'm in this situation now. Don't you think I'm not good enough for your cousin?""Come on, don't kid yourself. He would be one lucky guy if he were to marry you. “Besides, there’s nothing wrong with what you did. It's just something adults do, it's only natural! My cousin is definitely not the type to care about such things."Suzy couldn't help but laugh at her friend's straightforwardness. Sometimes, she envied Wendy for being seemingly carefree, yet so clear-minded and comfortable with herself."Wendy, I know you're looking out for me, and your cousin is indeed a good person, but I'm just not in the right place for romance right
