Chapter 0821

The thought that Evangeline might not actually be pregnant made Suzy recall the time she had offered to check her pulse only for Evangeline to refuse.

If there was nothing wrong, why had she been so resistant?

But if she was hiding something, there was no way her brother wouldn't know.

After all, he was skilled in medicine himself, which meant Helena could very well be deliberately trying to stir trouble between them.

And yet... she hadn't seemed like she was lying.

There was only one way to find out-investigate.

Suzy quietly looked into what had happened between Helena and Evangeline while she was away.

To her surprise, the results aligned with what Helena told her.

The tension between them was real.

Even so, Suzy still found it hard to believe that Evangeline was truly behind everything.

She had always been kind.

From the moment they first met, Suzy believed Evangeline was a genuinely good person.

If she had truly been working against Helena, why would she have allowed them to meet privately?

Wouldn't she have been afraid that Helena might tell her something she wasn't supposed to hear?
