Chapter 4
Austin's strikingly handsome face came into full view as the car window rolled down.
Suzanne stepped closer, surprise flickering in her eyes. "You didn't leave?"
He got out of the car without a word, opened the trunk, and carefully placed her suitcase inside.
For a moment, she froze. She couldn't remember the last time someone had done something for her without being asked. Her eyes stung as she lowered her gaze and murmured softly, "Thank you."
Austin's sharp eyes fell on her swollen cheek, and his expression darkened instantly. "Who hit you?"
Suzanne's lashes fluttered as she hesitated. She didn't want to talk about it. "It's nothing. I'm fine."
But Austin's demeanor grew colder, the sharp pressure he gave off cutting through the air as he turned and started walking toward the Yates residence.
Startled, Suzanne grabbed his arm. "Austin, no..."
"I'll kill anyone who hurts you!" His voice was icy, his words chilling enough to send a shiver down her spine.
Suzanne clung to his arm, her face full of exhaustion and quiet desperation. "I'm so tired. Let's... Let's just go, okay?"
One side of her face was swollen while the other side was pale.
Austin's gaze softened briefly. After a moment, he relented, saying nothing as he turned back toward the car.
The ride was silent.
An hour later, they arrived at Starview Villa.
As they stepped inside, Suzanne was met with the sight of several people standing in the grand living room. The moment they entered, the staff stepped forward and greeted them respectfully, "Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Hall!"
Suzanne froze, her eyes widening as she instinctively glanced at Austin. He had already made all the arrangements.
Austin looked at her briefly. "You can inform them if you need anything. They won't speak a word outside these walls."
Her lashes fluttered as a wave of emotion washed over her. Quietly, she said, "Thank you."
