Suzy scoffed. “That’s just your imagination.”
It wasn’t the first time someone had thought that. Allen, Diana, and now Gray Wolf–it seemed Dylan had quite the knack for deceiving people.
Gray Wolf wasn’t convinced. “No, it’s not. After being locked up by Dylan for months, I’ve had plenty of time to observe him. From the way he looked at you just now, I’m certain- he cares about you. A person’s eyes don’t lie.”
Suzy remained skeptical. “That’s because you haven’t seen someone as good at acting as Dylan.”
“I’m serious-”
“Enough!” Suzy cut him off, her voice sharp. “Don’t bring him up in front of me again. It’s bad luck.”
Gray Wolf fell silent.
After Suzy and Gray Wolf left, Dylan sat alone in his study for a long time.
Her words from earlier replayed in his mind as if etched there, each one cutting into his heart like a dull blade.
So, she hadn’t just started wanting him dead recently–it had been on her mind ever since she first filed for divorce.
The pain was so consuming that Dylan couldn’t even focus on the bigger question: who Suzy really was.
He’d always known that the forces behind Gray Wolf weren’t simple. But at this moment, none of that mattered. All he could feel was a crushing sorrow.
His chest ached as if his heart were breaking apart, and for the first time, Dylan realized that even with a healthy heart, it was possible to hurt this much.
There was no going back for them.
He had lost her completely.
Hillside Villa.
After bringing Gray Wolf back, Suzy immediately called Allen over.
The moment Allen saw Gray Wolf, his expression changed. “Uh, Boss, let me explain. Look,

I only sent him because I thought Dylan deserved a little payback for how he treated you. I didn’t expect to underestimate him, and that’s why Gray Wolf ended up…

Before Suzy could say anything, Gray Wolf voiced his grievances. “It’s been months! If Boss hadn’t brought me back tonight, would you have completely forgotten about me?”
He had spent every day of those months waiting for Allen to come rescue him. But day after day passed, and Allen never showed up.
Seeing Gray Wolf’s aggrieved expression, Allen felt compelled to defend himself. “I did go! Not just once–I practically scoured all of Bayview Heights trying to figure out where Dylan was keeping you!”
“You really went?” Gray Wolf was skeptical.
Allen frowned. “I swear!”
Watching the two bicker back and forth, Suzy felt a headache coming on. “Alright, enough. I didn’t call you here to argue.”
The two men immediately straightened up, turning their attention to Suzy and waiting for her instructions.
Suzy narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze landing on Allen. “It’s possible someone’s trying to frame Dylan again.”
“What do
you mean?”
Suzy explained, “Whether it’s my identity as a miracle doctor or the fact that Dylan caught me rescuing Gray Wolf tonight, his reaction was one of genuine surprise. If he really had ties to the Goodwin family, there’s no way he wouldn’t know who I am–unless he’s deliberately pretending.‘
However, Allen looked doubtful. “Dylan’s acting skills aren’t that convincing, are they?” Suzy sneered coldly. “Don’t be so sure.‘
When he faked confessing his love to her, wasn’t he utterly convincing?
After a moment of thought, Suzy turned to Allen. “If this really is just an act, then we’ll follow their script and see where it leads.”
