Chapter 0713

The message from the caller couldn't have been clearer: if Suzy wanted Diana to live, she would have to trade her own life.

The phone wasn't on speaker, so Dylan couldn't hear the conversation.

Suzy had no intention of telling him what was said, even as he pressed her for answers. "What did they say?"

"Nothing important," Suzy replied, already heading for the door.

"Take care of Grandma. Make sure nothing happens to her!"

Dylan followed and grabbed her wrist. "Where are you going?"

"I'm going home," Suzy said, her gaze steady as it met Dylan's.

"I'll get Diana back. You don't need to do anything. Just stay here and look after Grandma. Understand?"

"I'll go with you—" Dylan began, but Suzy cut him off.

"No! Dylan, I've said this before-stay away from me! Diana has already become a victim, and next, it could be Grandma. Do you really want all your loved ones to pay the price for your stubbornness?"

Of course, Dylan didn't want that, but he couldn't bring himself to let her go.

The thought of spending the rest of his life without her was unbearable, like a blade slicing through his heart, leaving him breathless.

Seeing his conflicted expression, Suzy hesitated before leaning in and brushing a light kiss against his lips.
