As soon as the car came to a stop, Suzy got out and searched for her keys, but after rummaging for a while, she couldn’t find them.
Feeling frustrated, she pounded on the door. “Dylan, open the door!”
“Do you hear me? Hurry up and open it.”
She called out for a long time, but the door stayed shut. With her hands on her hips, Suzy sneered. “You think just because you won’t open the door, I can’t get in?”
Suzy stepped back a few paces, then sprinted forward and, with a swift leap, effortlessly vaulted over the gate.
Landing gracefully, she smugly brushed the dirt off her hands. “You’ve really
underestimated me.”
Suzy was undeniably drunk.
From the gate to the main house, she stumbled along the way, nearly falling several times.
It was only because she was so drunk.
If she’d had any sense left, she would never have come to the place that had caused her three years of heartache.
She may have gotten past the gate without a key, but getting into the main house was another story.
After fiddling with the door handle for a while with no luck, Suzy smirked mischievously. Heh, I’ve got plenty of tricks.”
Pulling a hairpin from her hair, she straightened it and stuck it into the lock….
What even a professional thief couldn’t do, Suzy managed in under ten seconds.
She swung open the door, strolled into the house, and headed upstairs like she’d done a thousand times before, making her way to her room.
She kicked off her shoes, collapsed onto the bed, and just as she closed her eyes, she suddenly shot up and stormed into Dylan’s room.
With one swift kick, she knocked the door open, pointing at the bed and shouting, “Dylan, we’re married! What right do you have to keep me from sleeping here? It’s been three years! Even if I’d been raising a dog, it’d be loyal by now. You’re worse than a dog!
“Tonight, I’m going to sleep here and make up for all the times I couldn’t these past three years!”
After ranting for a while, she realized the room was empty.

“Hah…” Suzy let out a bitter laugh. “Out this late? You’re probably with that little witch,
Anne.”
Just thinking of Anne made Suzy furious. “She actually had the nerve to ask me to help her sleep with you. I’ve seen manipulative women before, but none worse than her.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
Pulling out her phone, she quickly dialed Dylan’s number, one she knew by heart.
The moment the call connected, she ordered, “Dylan, I want you home in half an hour, or you’ll regret it.”
After hanging up, she tossed the phone aside and collapsed onto the bed, passing out immediately.
Meanwhile, at the hospital.
Anne had sustained a concussion from hitting her head and clung to Dylan ever since. Her head hurt, her arm ached, and the poison in her body was acting up again, leaving Dylan. choice but to stay by her side.
It was just bad timing–right before Suzy’s call, Anne had asked for strawberries, and Dylan had gone to wash them for her.
He had just taken a call for work and left his phone on the hospital bed.
As soon as Dylan stepped into the bathroom, the phone rang–a call from an unfamiliar number.

Anne intended to bring the phone to him, but her finger accidentally hit the answer button.
Suddenly, she heard Suzy’s voice on the other end.
At that moment, Anne’s heart raced so fast it felt like it might leap out of her throat.
Wasn’t she supposed to be missing?
Glancing toward the bathroom, Anne confirmed that Dylan hadn’t noticed anything. She quickly blocked the number and deleted the call log.
Then, she casually pulled out her own phone from under the pillow, sent a text message, and acted as if nothing had happened, waiting for Dylan to return.
Luckily, Dylan always kept his phone on low volume, so when he came back, he didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.
As she nibbled on strawberries, Anne casually asked, “Mr. Dylan, have you found Suzy yet?
Dylan looked up but didn’t respond.

Anne continued, “I was just thinking, if you do find her, could you not be mad at her? No matter what, the two of you were married for three years. reason she kidnapped me and tried to poison me was simply because she felt I took what was originally hers.

“Even if we were together first, in her eyes, once she became your wife, I should’ve left you.
