The Wrong Woman

Chapter 39

Cole showed up outside Suzanne’s apartment block at 5:00 pm. He was surprised when he saw Suzanne.

She wasn’t wearing the dress Nathan had given her. Instead, she wore a plain, light blue dress. The only accessory she wore was a light blue ribbon, which was used to put her hair up in a ponytail.

The light makeup adorning Suzanne’s face, coupled with the plain yet pretty dress she wore, made her look pure and innocent.

“Mrs. Morrison, you…” Cole stared at Suzanne in surprise, though his sentence came to a staggering end. He had a feeling that he shouldn’t be asking her any questions related to her appearance.

Suzanne was still a little down. After nodding at Cole as a form of acknowledgment, she opted to stay quiet.

Cole noticed that she wasn’t carrying anything with her, so he decided to drop her a reminder in a roundabout way. “Mrs. Morrison, did you forget something?”

“No,” Suzanne replied.

Cole didn’t say anything more and opened the car door for Suzanne. After she got in the car, Cole drove toward Morrison Residence.

There were more than a dozen burly bodyguards standing guard outside the manor. Countless luxury cars cruised through the open. iron gates, each of them parking at the square in front of the manor.

The butler greeted the guests outside the manor. Meanwhile, the Morrisons would welcome the guests in the hall.
