Chapter 0013 Chapter 0013 "How do you wantto repay you?" Suzy teased, playfully pinching Riley's jaw. "How about I have Allen repay you... in bed?" Riley's eyes lit up instantly. "Of course! Let's do it tonight!" Suzy sighed, the humor slipping from her tone, Riley, sometimes being too persistent isn't always a good thing." Had it been three years ago, Suzy wouldn't have said this, but after what she went through with Dylan, she felt the need to warn her.
After all, Riley wasn't just an employee, but also a close friend. And while Allen was a great guy, unrequited feelings were best addressed sooner rather than later.
Riley, sensing the shift in Suzy's demeanor, noticed something she hadn't seen before.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThough Suzy looked as radiant as ever-perhaps even more beautiful than three years ago there was a shadow in her eyes, a sadness that hadn't been there before..
To think someone had the audacity to break her boss' heart.
Whoever that man was, he was a fool for hurting Suzy.
He'd better pray she never found out who he was, because she'd make sure he learned the true meaning of regret.
To avoid upsetting Suzy further, she, like Allen, wisely didn't press on the matter and simply asked, "Boss, do you needto contact Raven and the others?" Suzy walked over to a set of rosewood chairs, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Riley. She poured one for herself as well, taking a sip before answering. "Allen already knows. And I heard Raven's pregnant, so let's not bother her for now." Riley took the glass but placed it aside. "I can't believe you didn't tellfirst.
Suzy popped a piece of cake into Riley's mouth. "You and Allen really are two of a kind- always so sour." Riley chewed slowly, smirking. "You're lucky it's you. Anyone else and I wouldn't even bother.
Suzy chuckled and grabbed a piece of cake for herself. "I'm honored!" After catching up for a while, Suzy finally got to the point of her visit. "Get things ready. Tomorrow, I'll be here to help someone with a detox treatment.
Riley raised an eyebrow. "Who is it that deserves such special treatment? It's not often you personally handle things." Chapter 0013 Suzy grinned. "My ex-husband's first love." ...What did you just say?" Suzy laughed. “Is it that shocking?" "What do you think?" Riley huffed. "So, for the past three years, you've been secretly married?" "It wasn't exactly a secret, just not the right tto share." After all, faking her death required scommitment to the act.

"Do I really?" "Absolutely!" Riley pointed at Suzy's eyes. "Others might not notice, but I can spot it from a mile away."
Riley narrowed her eyes in disbelief.
"So, after that jerk hurt you, you're still going out of your way to detox his mistress? What are you, skind of saint now?"
Suzy's eyelids lifted lazily. "He's just an ex-husband, Riley. you think e he's worth that much?" "Then why bother?" "Simple. The payment offered was more than enough." "Yeah, right..." Riley muttered under her breath, clearly unconvinced.
Having said all she needed to, Suzy stood up. "I'm leaving." "You're leaving already?" Riley, though reluctant, rose to her feet as well. "I'll walk you out.
Suzy waved her off. "No need. Get back to work"
Making her way through the familiar halls of the resort, Suzy was entirely upprepare for who she ran into. It was Dylan's sister-Diana. Chapter 0014 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
