Chapter 0794

"I just want him to be safe. He's already suffered too much because of me. I don't want him to go through any more pain. If he has to hate me, then so be it."

What she didn't realize was that the words she spoke today would set Elliot on a path of no return.

Suzy knew that Diana was struggling with his departure as well.

She had long noticed the feelings Diana had for Elliot, even if no one else did.
