Chapter 0676
At the time, Suzy had noticed something odd, briefly wondering if Zoe might have feelings for Elliot that she shouldn’t.
She hadn’t thought much of it then, but now…
Taking a deep breath, Suzy asked, “Where is he?”
Zoe shook her head.
“I truly don’t know. The reason I revealed my identity to you was to ask for your help in bringing him back!”
Even at this point, her words seemed sincere. Suzy pressed on, “You mentioned earlier that someone threatened you with your husband’s and son’s lives.
“If you don’t know where Elliot is, then surely you must know who that person is?”
To her surprise, Zoe shook her head again. “I don’t know!”
“Zoe Cleary…”
Seeing Suzy’s growing frustration, Zoe quickly explained, “I truly don’t know. You might not believe me, but even though I’ve worked for this person for years, I’ve never seen their face.
“All our communication has been online. I think they’re afraid I might reveal their identity.”
“Do you contact them, or do they contact you?”
Zoe reached into her pocket and handed Suzy her phone. “This number belongs to them. You can investigate it through this.”
Suzy took the phone and was about to make a call when Zoe stopped her.
“I already called them earlier. Normally, I wouldn’t call them twice in one day. If you call now, it’ll make them suspicious.
This person is extremely cautious.
If they sense anything unusual, it could endanger Elliot. So don’t call them yet!”
Seeing the worry etched on Zoe’s face, which didn’t seem like a lie, Suzy paused.
“Zoe, even if everything you did was forced, it doesn’t mean you deserve forgiveness…”
Before she could finish, Zoe interrupted her. “I know. I’ve never expected Elliot to forgive me. I don’t deserve forgiveness at all, so…

Suddenly, Zoe flung Suzy’s hand aside, swiftly picked up a knife from the ground, and plunged it into her own chest without hesitation.
Suzy’s brows furrowed deeply as she froze in shock for a moment.
Then, snapping out of it, she tried to help treat Zoe, but Zoe refused.
“Miss Frost, don’t bother. They already anticipated that you’d get clues from me, so they’ve issued an order for me to handle things myself.”
“Even if you manage to save me now, you won’t be able to save me forever. Besides, I truly don’t want to live
anymore.

Chapter 0676
“After everything I’ve done to hurt Elliot, how could I have the face to go on living?
“When you save Elliot, please tell him I’m sorry. Tell him s aunt apologizes to him, and ask him not to hate me, because I’m not worth it…”
Using her last bit of strength, Zoe placed her phone in Suzy’s palm.
“Over the years, although I’ve never seen that person in person, I’ve secretly gathered some things. See if they’re of any use.
“Miss Frost, you must save Elliot, no matter what! And… please take care of my husband and son for me. Thank
you…
Before she could finish her words, Zoe took her final breath
Suzy hadn’t expected things to end this way, but perhaps it was the best outcome for Zoe, At least now, she wouldn’t have to continue living in torment.
For years, Zoe had been forced to harm Elliot. Sometimes, mental anguish was the cruelest form of punishment. Looking at the phone in her palm, Suzy’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “Let’s see who you really are!”
