The Cherished Wife



Annie could not help but sigh. Although she had her reservations about Winter, she knew that Suzy and Winter were once good friends.

She remembered that neither Suzy nor Winter had been entirely friendly toward her in the past. Hence, Annie had assumed that even after such an incident, Suzy's relationship with Winter would not have deteriorated this much.

However, seeing Suzy's resolute attitude, Annie decided not to press the matter further.

Suzy pleaded, "Annie, please don't think badly of me. I just can't take it anymore. She's upset with Noelle, but why should that affect us?"

Annie reassured her, "I understand, Suzy. I won't judge you. To be honest, I was also very resentful toward Winter during that time. I couldn't understand why she treated me that way. But now, I've moved past it. My only focus is to go abroad and get my face fixed."

"When are you leaving?" Suzy asked, feeling relieved after getting that weight off her chest. "I'll see you off when the time comes."

Annie replied with a smile, "In a few days. I've been sorting out my visa, and once it's ready, I'll be off. Why don't you go take a shower? Then, we can go for a walk. You must be going stir-crazy after being cooped up here for so long."

"You're right. A walk would be nice," Suzy agreed. "Annie, I hope your brother doesn't mind me staying here for so long."

"Don't worry, my brother isn't petty like that. Besides, he doesn't come here often anyway."

A week later, Annie's visa was approved, and her travel plans were set. The Adams family's main concern now was Annie's face.

Although everyone knew Charles was responsible for Annie's condition, they could not bring themselves to hate him. After all, considering what Annie had done and Charles' capabilities, the Adams family felt fortunate that Annie was still alive.

Meanwhile, Annie had packed

everything and was ready to leave. Initially, her mother wanted to accompany her, but Annie refused. She wanted to face this challenge alone to grow from the experience.

Cody supported Annie's decision, and Annie even declined her family's offer to see her off at the airport.

Hence, only Sazy and Winter were at

the airport to bid Annie farewell. Suzy dressed conservatively, covering herself completely to conceal her appearance. Winter, being a celebrity, also disguised

herself thoroughly.

After an emotional goodbye at the airport, Suzy hugged Annie and patted her shoulder, saying, "Annie, I'll be waiting for your return."

"I will, and take care of yourself."

Annie then whispered in Suzy's ene

Suzy's gaze darkened momentarily before she forced a smile. "I understand. Have a safe trip, Annie."

Winter also hugged Annie goodbye. After Annie left, Winter removed her sunglasses and turned to Suzy.

Noticing how Suzy had wrapped herself up, leaving only her eyes visible, Winter hesitantly approached her. "Suzy, can we talk?"

Suzy's gaze was cold, but she nodded. "Let's find a quiet place. I don't want to be in the crowds. If it weren't for Annie flying off, I wouldn't have come out."Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

"Suzy, are you still angry with me? I know that incident hurt you deeply. I'm sorry, Suzy. I..."

"Let's just find a quiet place first," Suzy interrupted Winter coldly. Sensing Suzy's mood, Winter awkwardly nodded. "Alright, I know a good, quiet place."
