Chapter 321: I Won’t Let Zenway Off the Hook

After pouring Suzy a drink, Gavin secretly messaged Michael. Michael quickly replied, instructing him to "take care of” Suzy first, ensuring she wouldn't resist too much, as he didn't like that.As time passed, and they finished their steaks, Suzy still hadn't returned.Michael sensed something was wrong.He gave Gavin a look. "Go check on her. Maybe she's too drunk.""Okay," Gavin said, standing up and heading toward the restroom.But there was no sign of Suzy, not even a shadow.He immediately had a bad feeling. But he reasoned that Suzy would at least have said something if she were leaving. She wouldn't just disappear unless she was too drunk and someone had taken her away.Gavin quickly took out his phone and called Suzy, but there was no answer.Thinking fast, he called Ryan's number. "Hello? Mr. Paynes?""Yes, this is Ryan Paynes. What's going on?""I'm the manager from Zenway. We were just having dinner with Miss Chase. She was enjoying herself, had a few drinks, and went to th

Chapter 322: I Want You

"Sir, should we call the police?""Not yet. Let me look around some more." Gavin didn't want to escalate the situation, thinking that Suzy was likely taken by her colleagues.It would have been a good thing if that was the case.This way, there would be no evidence of any tampering by him or Michael.Gavin returned to the table, picked up the bottle of wine, and left the restaurant. He then drove to a secluded spot, poured the wine into a trash can, and smashed the bottle before discarding it.After everything was taken care of, he sent a text message to Suzy.“[Miss Chase, did you get drunk? I couldn't find you when I went to look for you. I was thinking of finding a female colleague to take you back to the hotel. Did you already go back? If so, I won't disturb your rest. Let's talk tomorrow.”...Suzy felt like the world was spinning and soon found herself in a car.The discomfort in her stomach grew unbearable, and she couldn't hold it back any longer, so she... threw up.Liam looke

Chapter 323: Liam, I’m Hurt

Liam's voice turned husky as he gripped her wrist tightly."Suzy, don't do something you'll regret."But Suzy, overwhelmed by the effects of the drug and the alcohol, couldn't hear him. Her eyes were unfocused, and her hands were wandering aimlessly.Liam felt like his sanity was hanging by a thread."Suzy, get a grip!""Don't you want me? I'm feeling so hot... so uncomfortable..."Liam's temples throbbed as he tried to pull her hand away.But the more he resisted, the tighter she held on.The pain made him wince, but he gritted his teeth.He didn't want anything to happen between them in this state. She was drunk, but he was not."Suzy, let go of me," Liam managed to say through clenched teeth."No!" Suzy even laughed, "You're hotter than me...""Suzy Chase!""It's so hard."Liam could almost hear his self-control snapping."You'll regret this when you sober up.""I won't—"He suddenly reversed the situation, capturing her lips in a fierce kiss, taking control.Liam still felt like he

Chapter 324: Who Changed Her Clothes

Ryan deeply regretted sending Suzy to handle this project.He knew how men in the business world behaved, especially when a woman as attractive as Suzy was involved. They practically couldn't take their eyes off her."If they dared to do anything to Miss Chase, I won't let Zenway get away with it!" After hanging up, Ryan immediately headed to Zenway's office.He didn't give them any notice, wanting to catch them off guard. Ryan was so furious that he wanted to shut Zenway down, though he lacked the power to do so.Ryan furrowed his thick brows.At that moment, he realized the gap between him and Liam.If it were Liam, shutting down Zenway would be as simple as saying the word....Meanwhile, the search for Suzy was in full swing outside.Unbeknownst to them, she had slept until nearly noon in a hotel room.As soon as she regained consciousness, a hangover headache and physical soreness hit her simultaneously, making her temples throb."Ugh—"She tried to prop herself up with her tremb

Chapter 325: Waist Hurt A Little

In just a few seconds, the call connected."Hello? You're awake.""Yes... I am. Was it you who picked me up from the restaurant last night? Thank you so much." Suzy refrained from directly asking who had changed her clothes, recognizing his kindness in rescuing her."No need to thank me.""Did you come alone to pick me up?" Suzy asked cautiously. "I mean, I was pretty drunk. It's impressive you managed on your own."The driver quickly clarified, "It was my female friend who changed your clothes.""Oh! That's good... I mean..." "It's fine, you don't need to thank me. You've helped me a lot too." He did indeed have a female friend change her clothes.After their intense night, Liam regretted it—not because of the act itself but because she was married. He always claimed to have a moral code, yet he had become involved with a married woman.The moral conflict was too much for him to bear.So, after making sure Suzy was settled, he left the hotel.Having received her answers, Suzy ended t

Chapter 326: Spiked Wine

"Yes, Mr. Hanson."Ryan squinted at him, feeling that things were not as simple as he said.Normally, if Suzy had really left midway, she would have mentioned it! And if Michael saw that Suzy hadn't returned, how could he have just left first? Wouldn't he have gone to look for her immediately?Unless he did something wrong and was worried about being exposed.After Michael gave his instructions, he turned around and saw Ryan's inquisitive gaze.His eyes quickly shifted, feeling somewhat guilty."When Miss Chase returns, I need to take her to the hospital to get her blood tested to see what kind of wine Mr. Hanson really gave her."Blood test?Michael panicked."Is it necessary? Why test her blood? I just brought her some good wine to taste, nothing else.""Who knows if there was something else in your wine that shouldn't be there." Ryan sneered. "We both know the tricks in the business world! I sent Miss Chase because I trusted you, thinking you had no prior incidents. But you got my p

Chapter 327: Bite Marks

Liam, who couldn't bear to lay a finger on Suzy, thought Zenway had real nerve!"Understood," Alec replied, knowing these kinds of tasks were his specialty.There was no choice; after all, he had a strong backing.Moreover, bringing down Zenway didn't require much effort. After a few projects were canceled, the company would collapse on its own! But since the boss ordered it to disappear immediately, he must have been truly provoked.Alec speculated that it was most likely related to Suzy.No one else could drive Liam crazy."Are you in Windsting City?""Yes.""Bring the driver we found last time to West City," Liam ordered, anticipating that Suzy might insist on thanking him in person, and he needed to be prepared."Got it, I understand!"After hanging up, Liam took off his suit jacket and unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his well-built shoulders.There were bite marks of varying depths all over, some still bleeding slightly.The touch of his clothes made them throb faintly, but Liam d

Chapter 328: You’re Hopeless

Liam didn't answer.But Clive already had his answer. "I knew it! You two are really something! Liam, take my advice, just give up on Suzy."Liam remained silent for nearly a minute. Just when Clive thought he was seriously considering his words, Liam suddenly spoke, "Send me Ryan's details.""...You're hopeless."Liam had accepted that long ago.He was indeed hopeless.All the talk about giving up on Suzy, never thinking about her again, and starting a new life—that was all self-deception!The reality was, as long as she beckoned, he would rush to her side, like a moth to a flame, devoid of reason, unable to think it through....When Suzy called Ryan, she was on her way back to her hotel.As soon as he picked up, his voice nearly shattered her eardrum."Where are you? Are you okay? Who are you with?"She sighed. "Ask one at a time, don't be so nervous. I'm fine. I just got drunk last night, and luckily a friend of mine was around. He took me to a room to rest.""Friend? Man or woman?

Chapter 329: Anyone Touch You Last Night

"Okay."After watching them leave, Suzy finally took out her key card and opened her room door.Ryan followed her inside, scrutinizing her from head to toe as if trying to see right through her."So, you just got drunk and spent the night at another hotel?"Suzy frowned, pouring herself a glass of warm water to ease her stomach discomfort. "What else could it be?""They didn't do anything else?""I don't think so, just drinking." Suzy didn't remember anything; she had completely blacked out.So, from her perspective, it was simply her poor alcohol tolerance. She was worried that not accompanying the Zenway executives properly might jeopardize the collaboration."Suzy, they probably spiked your drink," Ryan revealed.He wanted to know how Suzy's drug effects had been neutralized."...Spiked?""Yes! If you don't believe me, we can go for a blood test now. It should still show up."Suzy felt her mind go blank. She tried to remember but couldn't recall anything.But she was sure Zenway's p

Chapter 330: Did He Touch Me?

Suzy fell silent and felt as if she were still dreaming, hearing such words.Zenway, such a large company, collapsed just like that?!It was too absurd."Did you do this?"Ryan's body stiffened for a moment, then he nodded. "Yes, I did it. I wanted to make Zenway pay. They dared to harm you, how could I tolerate that?""That was unnecessary! You just needed to warn them! This second-stage processing of agricultural products is not only profitable for our company but also benefits farmers. It's such a good thing. Do you know how many farmers were waiting for us to sign the contract?"Farmers were becoming fewer because there wasn't much money to be made.If secondary processing could be done, it would surely spark a new trend and bring more income to farmers.Ryan pursed his lips, standing in front of her like a child who had done something wrong. "I only thought about how they bullied you. I didn't think it through."Mostly because… it wasn't him who completely crushed Zenway.But in f
