Chapter 0004

"Two hundred million dollars?"

Dylan barely hesitated. "Deal!"

Three years ago, after being drugged during an ambush, a girl saved his life despite being seriously injured herself.

After a night together, the girl disappeared by morning.

It had been too dark that night to see her face clearly, but he vaguely remembered a faint, distinctive scent on her, like some kind of herbal remedy.

After investigating, he traced it back to the Wheeler family.

Anne had been frail and sickly since childhood and had relied on natural remedies for years.

According to her, on the day he was attacked, she was kidnapped and managed to escape. Along the way, she encountered him.

Ignoring her own safety, she dragged her wounded body and gave herself to him to save his life.

At the time, she was only eighteen.

Anne saved his life, and he promised her marriage. Even though his grandmother, Grace, disapproved, he vowed never to marry anyone else.

Yet out of nowhere, Suzy showed up.

She orchestrated a heroic act, earning Grace's favor, and step by step, manipulated Grace into forcing him to marry her.

With her goal achieved, Suzy saw Anne as a thorn in her side, constantly picking fights.

Lately, things had escalated — first, a kidnapping, and now poisoning...

Meanwhile, Allen immediately informed Suzy after receiving a response. "Boss, they've agreed."

He agreed...

It was impossible not to feel something.

After all, she had loved Dylan for so many years.

She couldn't help but wonder, if it were her who was poisoned, would he do the same?

No, he wouldn't!
