Chapter 135

The words struck Suzanne like a sharp blade, piercing her heart and leaving behind a throbbing wound
with every heartbeat. The pain was so intense that it felt as though she was swallowing knives with
each breath.
She fought against the tears welling up in her eyes. She was resolute in her decision not to shed
another tear for Nathan.
Knowing Nathan’s deep connection with Sally, Suzanne had turned a blind eye to their intimate
gestures, convincing herself they were inconsequential. However, hearing someone else speak them
aloud made the bitter reality difficult to ignore.
Nathan didn’t refute the accusation. When Sally threatened him with death, Nathan, driven by a sense
of duty, embraced her to prevent the tragedy and offered comfort under the doctor’s guidance.
He saw this act as a humanitarian gesture, devoid of any feelings, and didn’t breach his marital vows
nor betray Suzann
Nonetheless, Oliver’s words shattered Nathan’s calm. With nar eyes, Nathan snapped, “You and Sally
are quite the duo. Birds feather.”
Oliver was caught off guard.
Nathan let go of his grip on Oliver and grabbed Suzanne’s wrist, his fury evident as he stormed away.
Tears streamed down Suzanne’s face as she reluctantly followed him into the villa. His grip was firm,
causing her wrist to throb with pain.
In the living room, Sally approached Nathan. “Nate, where did you go just now? I’ve been looking for
you.”
Before her hands could touch his arm, he shoved her aside forcefully. Sally stumbled backward and fell
to the floor.
Everyone in Morrison Residence was startled. They rushed to Sally’s aid while reprimanding Nathan for
his abruptness and unexplained
anger.
But Nathan paid no heed to Sally’s plight. With determination, he pulled Suzanne upstairs without
pausing for even a moment.
The tension in the room was palpable with Nathan’s fury. Concern etched the faces of those witnessing
the scene, their eyes flickering between Nathan’s imposing figure and Suzanne’s shrinking form.
With a resounding slam, the door was firmly shut and locked.
Suzanne’s heart sank the moment her wrist was released. She nervously took a few steps back,
distancing herself from the intimidating man before her.
Ever since knowing Nathan, this was the first time she had see so terrifyingly angry. It felt like even
stepping slightly closer w bring her danger. The atmosphere around him was charged with menace, as
if the air itself was crackled with tension that made it hard to breathe.
As Nathan turned after locking the door, Suzanne had already distanced herself several steps away,
much to his dismay. A glint of coldness flashed in Nathan’s eyes, his anger burning as he smirked
sarcastically, “Is this your reason for leaving?”
Suzanne furrowed her brow, her teary eyes gazing at him. incredulously. His words rendered her
speechless, unable to comprehend the depth of his accusation.
Nathan closed the gap between them with deliberate steps. His anger intensified, though his tone
remained icy as he spoke, “You haven’t
even left yet, and you’re so eager to embrace each other as if you can’t bear to part?”
Suzanne seethed with anger, feeling physically uncomfortable.
Holding back tears, she gritted her teeth and retorted, “Are you and Sally innocent then?”
Nathan’s response was firm. “Yes, we are.”
Suzanne found it absurd, but she couldn’t muster a laugh. She huffed lightly to show her disdain.
Her attitude infuriated Nathan even more. He walked over, grabbed her wrist, and yanked her toward
him.
He narrowed his eyes as he rebuked her, word by word, “You were the one who insisted on marriage
vows and loyalty. Now you’re cozying up to your ex-boyfriend right in front of me. Do you think I’m
blind?”
Suzanne was caught between fear of Nathan’s wrath and anger at his unjust accusations, her heart
aching with unbearable agony. N woman who was deeply in love with her husband could end
confessing his love for another woman via text and be indiffere toward the prospect of divorce.
For Vera’s sake, she had turned a blind eye to the signs. Yet now, Nathan was twisting the narrative
and accused her of being unfaith simply for sharing a hug with Oliver.
