Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 440: Making Her Regret

Julian understood from NE's tone that he was aware of the scandals surrounding Susan. However, what puzzled Julian was why NE was so determined to support a woman mired in controversy.

To Julian, the NE on the other end of the call seemed unlike his usual self-his emotions were unstable, and it was clear this had something to do with Susan.

"This is none of your concern. Since we're not cooperating, there's no need for further discussion. This time, I'm set on choosing Susan, and I'll make sure you all see whether my decision is wrong or not!" NE's determination was no longer about the spokesperson; it was about proving he wasn't mistaken.

After hanging up the phone, Susan noticed his expression hadn't improved-in fact, it was worse than before.

"Marcos, is he the one upsetting you? I'm sorry... it's all my fault," Susan said softly, tugging at NE's sleeve with a look of grievance.

NE turned to her and asked bluntly, "Are the things in the tabloids true?"

"What things?" Susan asked cautiously, suspecting that Julian must have said something to him.

"That you were a homewrecker, that you pushed that woman into the sea-are those things true?" Marcos asked. He knew Susan had someone she liked, and she had once happily told him that she was with that person. But how it happened, he had no idea. "Did Julian tell you that? He's Aurora's boyfriend, of course, he'd take her side," Susan quickly responded.

"I asked if it's true or not," Marcos pressed, his focus solely on finding the truth.

"Some of it is true," Susan admitted. "For example, when I pushed her into the sea-it was an accident. I barely touched her, and she lost her balance and fell. There were so many witnesses at the time. Do you think I'd dare push her on purpose in front of everyone? That would be intentional harm! If she had died, I'd be facing legal consequences. That would only make things worse for me, wouldn't it?"

Of course, Susan didn't dare admit she had done it intentionally. At that moment, all she had wanted was for Aurora to die. It didn't matter where they were-she had been determined to act.

"You make a good point," Marcos conceded. "Who would deliberately do something like that and risk getting into trouble? But what about drugging that man and stealing her boyfriend?"

By now, Marcos wasn't particularly concerned about Susan's personal life. What he wanted was an answer-proof that he hadn't misjudged her.
