Back then, she felt that it was because she was not brave enough at that time.

Susan was suspicious about it.

However, by then, Ian had already forgotten all about her.

She had not dared to ask him about it, and nor did she dare to ask anyone about it. Susan had been afraid that she would not be able to stay by his side if she were to make him mad.
