Chapter 0081

Downstairs in the lobby.

After changing out of her outfit and looking composed, Suzy pretended she'd just come back from the restroom as she searched for Claude. To her surprise, she spotted him from afar, surrounded by a group of people.

Worried he might be having trouble, especially since he'd recently been injured, Suzy hurried over. As she got closer, she caught snippets of the conversation.

"By the look on your face, I'd say you're up to speed on what happened,” Suzy said coolly, meeting his gaze. "What's this-coming to defend your future mother-in-law?"

Dylan's eyes narrowed slightly. “You really think Claude can protect you?”
