Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 307

After her talk with Ben that night, Susan came to terms with things.

Penny continued to win Susan’s favor, displaying a level of humility that was almost excessive. Susan would attempt to have rational conversations with her, but if persuasion proved ineffective, she

wouldn’t let it bother her.

Theresa was a friend to her.

If Theresa were to betray her, Susan felt she would be devastated.

At this moment, Penny was filled with regret.

Otherwise, becoming friends with Susan would’ve been so much easier.

Naturally, there’s also the issue of having made a wrong assessment of the situation back then.

She had assumed that, since Susan and Yana were sisters, Susan would display the same impulsiveness that Yana had shown, despite her seemingly perfect exterior.

She didn’t anticipate that Susan and Yana were nothing alike.

The strategies employed with Yana had unintended consequences for Susan, achieving the opposite result.
