The Cherished Wife



The quiet place Winter mentioned was Homestyle Garden House. She had visited it a few times with Emilia and Jade and indeed found the environment pleasant and tranquil.

After getting in the car, Winter made a reservation. She then led Suzy to the place.

It was Suzy's first time there. She frowned slightly but followed Winter inside. Winter chose the innermost room, which others rarely passed by, ensuring their privacy.

Considering the severity of the recent incident, Winter was worried about its impact on Suzy, despite it being censored online. "Suzy, this place is usually free of those people. It's mostly frequented by refined, wealthy ladies... So about that day—"

"Enough!" Suzy interrupted. "I don't want to discuss it anymore. There's no need to keep bringing it up."

She then took a deep breath.

Being from a distinguished family, Suzy was adept at brewing tea, a skill her mother had insisted she perfected.

As she prepared the tea, Suzy forced herself to remain calm. "I know the incident was accidental and not directly your fault, but it's still difficult for me to move past it."

Winter said guiltily, "I understand. I'm sorry, Suzy. I never imagined things would turn out this way. It's all that bitch, Noelle's, fault. If she hadn't left the room, she would've been the one in trouble." Winter continued to shift all blame onto Noelle.

Suzy kept her head down, her brows furrowing together and eyes flashing with impatience. She remained silent, focusing on brewing the tea as Winter spoke.

Winter suddenly felt a chill, but it passed quickly. She forced a smile before saying, "Suzy, don't worry. Everything's been taken care of. Recently, Xavier and I went to many places and sought help from various people. The matter is finally resolved. It won't be brought up again, so you have nothing to fear."

Suzy's eyes flashed with derision upon hearing Winter's words.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Did Winter say she and Xavier had resolved this? Did they truly believe she was as naive as a three-year-old? Even Cody, who was more capable than Xavier, could not have managed this. How could Xavier possibly have done so?

"Thank you, Winter. I was wrong to blame you before," Suzy said, grasping Winter's hand. "But you know, I... I panicked. I'm a victim too."

She continued as her voice

trembled, "Winter, I'm at my wit's end. I've been having nightmares every night about that day. Yevgen, Chandter-I can't stop thinking about making them pay. But I'm too scared to report them. I'm terrified

Suzy's hands shook as she gripped Winter's tightly. Winter winced in pain and tried to pull away but froze when she saw Suzy's contorted face.

It was not until Suzy's nails dug into her hands that Winter snapped back to reality with a yelp.

"I'm sorry, Winter. I didn't mean to. I'm just so angry. It's all because of them and Simon!" Suzy gritted her teeth. "Winter, you'll help me, won't you?" "Help? With what?" Winter was taken aback, surprised by how the incident had seemingly changed Suzy's personality, making her more extreme. "What are you planning to do? Suzy, don't do anything illegal. That incident is in the past now, and there's no evidence left. If you do anything to Yevgen and Chandler now, it'll only backfire!"
