“Great, now every bit of blame is being dumped on Dylan. Sure, I’ve seen people get blamed unfairly, but this? This is on another level! Last time, you all said there was no way Suzy could be this ruthless to him–that it must’ve been Hawk pulling the strings.
“Suzy was the one being manipulated? By Hawk? She’s one of the sharpest people I’ve ever met. Do you really think she’d let anyone toy with her? You’re deluding yourselves!”
The more Victor spoke, the angrier he got. “No, this won’t do. Dylan told us not to interfere, but I don’t care. I’m going to see her, and I’m going to ask what the hell she really wants!”
Ignoring everyone’s attempts to stop him, Victor stormed out, heading straight for the Harlow Corporation building to confront Suzy.
But he didn’t even make it past the lobby before Dylan blocked his path.
“I told you, no one is to get involved in this,” Dylan said, his voice low and controlled as he stood firmly in front of Victor. His expression was cold, his eyes unreadable. “Go back.”
“Go back where?” Victor scoffed, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “Dylan, you’re the one who said not to intervene, but look at yourself! Take a good, hard look in the mirror and tell me what you see right now.
“If you’re so desperate to play the part of the tragic hero, at least do it in front of Suzy! This self–torture isn’t just hurting you; it’s also killing the people who love you. Do you have any idea how worried your grandmother and Diana have been? Can’t you feel how much they care?”
The more Victor looked at Dylan, the more certain he was that love was a dangerous game. Dylan, once so proud and untouchable, had been reduced to this–all because of his feelings.
Victor couldn’t help but think that Dylan should have learned from him to stick to fleeting romances and enjoy the company of women, but never let feelings get involved. No matter how clever or formidable a woman was, she couldn’t hurt him if he never gave her the chance to do so.
Of course, Dylan knew how much his behavior had worried them all. But his longing for Suzy was something he simply couldn’t control
After coming so close to death, his feelings for Her hadn’t diminished in the slightest. If anything, they had only grown deeper, to the point where just thinking about her consumed him. He couldn’t find peace unless he saw her, even for a moment.
But she…
Every time Dylan thought about Suzy marrying Hawk, his chest tightened painfully, as if

his heart might stop beating altogether.

So, it was true. She no longer had any feelings för him. If she did, there was no way she’d agree to marry Hawk.
Seeing Dylan remain silent, Victor sighed heavily. “Dylan, can’t you just let it go? Stop loving her. It’s not worth it.”
“Go home,” Dylan said flatly, avoiding the question but making his stance clear.
Victor ran a hand through his hair in frustration. “Don’t hate me for saying this, but she doesn’t love you anymore. You’re just torturing yourself for nothing.
“Your grandmother’s over eighty, and her health’s getting worse. Are you really going to keep putting her through this stress?”
But Dylan didn’t respond. He wasn’t listening, and Victor knew it. No amount of reasoning could reach him. Dylan was well aware he was worrying his family, especially his grandmother, but giving up on Suzy? That was something he simply couldn’t do.
Before Victor could say more, a voice came from behind them.
“Mr. Wright and Mr. Steele–it’s a rare sight to see you two together here. Did you come to congratulate me?”
“Suzy…” Victor began, but Dylan cut him off.
“Is it true?” Dylan asked, his voice low but sharp as he turned to face her.
Suzy met his deep, piercing gaze without hesitation. “Yes, it’s true. He and I love each other, so of course, we’re getting married.”
Dylan’s expression darkened, but before he could speak, Suzy pulled a small invitation from her bag and handed it to him.
“The wedding is in five days. You’re welcome to attend as our witness, Mr. Wright.”
