Chapter 0228

As soon as Suzy’s voice fell silent, a distorted, unrecognizable voice echoed around her, cold and eerie.

“You’re not even worth me taking action myself, Suzy. You should have died a long time ago. Your family has been waiting for you for years. So, today, I’ll send you to hell to join them!”

Suzy’s eyes glinted with a chilling light as she sneered, “Going alone would be too lonely. Why don’t you come with me?”

There was no one more daring than Suzy. Without hesitation, she charged back up to the second floor, throwing herself into the roaring flames.

The person she wanted was up there. She had to see who it was.

Outside the venue, Dylan arrived late, his expression darkening as he took in the inferno engulfing the building. His sharp gaze scanned the panicked crowd, searching for Suzy.

Not seeing her anywhere, he grabbed the nearest person and demanded, “Have you seen Suzy?”

The man replied quickly, “I did. She wasn’t feeling well and left early.”

Dylan’s tense heart finally eased slightly, but he still sought confirmation.

Stopping another staff member, he asked again, “Where’s Suzy?”

e reply was the same. “Our president wasn’t feeling well after drinking too much and it early. We tried calling her just now, but she didn’t answer–she’s probably sleeping.”

Dylan recalled how Suzy, after drinking the previous night, had fallen asleep in the car and slept soundly the whole way home.

She did sleep deeply after drinking.

If she had already gone home, there was no need to worry.

In truth, Dylan hadn’t even received an invitation to the banquet, but he had shamelessly decided to attend anyway. Unfortunately, a delay en route had set him back.

From a distance, seeing the building consumed by flames had caused his heart to seize with fear.

Thankfully, Suzy wasn’t inside.

Even so, he turned to his assistant, Desmond. Investigate what’s going on here.”

He was certain this wasn’t an accident. Suzy was meticulous to a fault. She would have ensured every safety measure was in place before the event began.

There was no way this fire was a coincidence.

Suzy never failed to surprise him.

Her unparalleled medical expertise was already impressive, but now he realized her business acumen was equally extraordinary.

Since taking over Harlow Corporation, she has handled everything with precision and efficiency.

Her skills were on par with Claude’s, if not better.

Thinking about the Frost family’s tragic incident from twenty years ago, Dylan’s eyes narrowed slightly, a faint, ominous light flickering within them.

He issued two orders to Desmond: one to investigate the situation and another to push the fire department to move faster.

The flames were spiraling out of control, and the fire department was nowhere to be seen. This wasn’t an accident–it couldn’t be.

Desmond stepped aside to make the call and returned shortly after. “Sir, I’ve reached the fire department. They said the overpass they were using collapsed, so they had to take a detour. They’re almost here now.

“Almost here” turned out to be another ten agonizing minutes before the fire trucks finally

arrived.

Once he saw the fire crews on–site, Dylan decided there was no need for him to stay.

The fire was devastating, and Suzy’s recent efforts would likely go up in flames along with the building. She’d undoubtedly be in a terrible mood, and he didn’t want to be an added irritation.

What Dylan didn’t realize was that, at that very moment, Suzy was trapped in the inferno, enduring unspeakable torment.

She had scoured the second floor but hadn’t found her target. Instead, she’d cut off her own escape route. As the fire grew stronger, flames licking at her surroundings, Suzy let out a hollow laugh.
