The Cherished Wife



"Does that mean I'm just supposed to just accept being victimized?" Suzy laughed bitterly. "Winter, I'm out of options now. I'm too afraid to go back to my old workplace. My parents still haven't forgiven me. Winter, I..."

Winter reassured her, "Don't be upset, Suzy. I'll help you. Are you looking for a job? I can ask Xavier to arrange something for you at Frotconn, or maybe at City Ring Corp? It's my family's company!"

Winter felt guilty toward Suzy, but more importantly, she feared Suzy might become distant or cut ties with her after this incident, which could jeopardize her previous actions...

"Winter, you're so kind to me!" Suzy hugged Winter tightly. "I won't cause you any trouble, Winter. I don't need Frotconn or City Ring Corp. Do you need someone by your side? Can I work for you instead?"

"Me?" Winter pointed at herself in surprise. "You mean you want to join me in the entertainment industry? But I don't need anyone. I have a manager and an assistant. Besides, Suzy, you're my friend. I can't have you doing those things for me!"

"It's okay. I'm unemployed anyway, and I don't want to go home. I'm afraid to face my parents. I don't know how to work at Frotconn or City Ring Corp, so let me be your assistant.

"You only have one, and you must be exhausted. Wouldn't an extra assistant make things easier? Besides, I know your preferences, which would surely make your work smoother."

Winter bit her lip, considering the idea. "Alright then. But don't do much when you come. Just keep me company, okay?" Winter thought she owed Suzy, and this request was not unreasonable.

"Thank you so much, Winter. You're so good to me. I'll work hard, I promise."

Winter's lips twitched in response. She felt something was off about Suzy but could not quite put her finger on what it was.

After chatting for a while longer,

Winter had to leave for Frotconn to meet Xavier. Suzy encouraged her to go ahead Once Winter left, Suzy removed her coat and the scart covering her face, her eyes glaring venomously in the direction Winter had disappeared.

Suzy then took out her phone and dialed a number. "Mr. Wells, Winter has agreed to let me be her

assistant," she reported, her voice devoid of emotion, sounding mechanical.

On the other end was Ronald. Upon hearing Suzy's report, he raised an eyebrow slightly. "Very good," he replied.

"Mr. Wells, when will you fulfill your promise to help me get revenge?" Suzy asked, gripping her phone tightly.

Ronald chuckled. "Why the rush, Ms. Atherton? Some things need time."

Suzy protested, "But I can't wait any longer. Why does she get to live normally, even appearing glamorously in the public eye, while I have to hide away?"

"This is the path you chose, Ms. Atherton, Ronald replied, his voice equally emotionless. "Since you made this choice, you must see it through, even if you have to Crawl." All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

He continued, "Now that you've chosen to cooperate with me, just wait patiently. You'll see what you want to see, and I won't disappoint you."
