The Wrong Woman

Chapter 171

Betty’s gaze softened as she looked at Suzanne, her smile turning affectionate.

“Oh dear, you’ve changed so much. I never imagined my little girl would blossom into such a wonderful lady. You make me proud.”

Unwilling to bask in Betty’s compliments, Suzanne leaned in, resting her hands on the table. “What exactly had I changed?” she asked.

Betty folded her hands and leaned closer to Suzanne. “When you were young, you took after your father and weren’t particularly pretty. You often talked about getting plastic surgery when you grew up.

“But now, you’ve grown into a natural beauty. Your graceful demeanor, those youthful features, and your round face are simply enchanting.”

As Betty spoke, Suzanne couldn’t help but touch her own cheek, as if seeking confirmation.

Betty continued, “And your personality has softened. You used to be aggressive, but now you’ve become gentle and sweet, with a soft,

mellow voice.

“No wonder you’ve captured the leader of the military base. You’re truly perfect now.

“You often fought with Samuel and argued with me and your father. But now, you handle conflicts rationally. You know his flaws and know how to avoid them. You’ve also become respectful and polite.

“Truly, you’ve made a lot of improvement.”

“Suzanne, I’m so proud to have you as my daughter.”
