    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 usation. When Sally threatened him with death, Nathan, driven by a sense


    of duty, embraced her to prevent the tragedy and offeredfort 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


    Nheless, 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 vi. 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 unexined


    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 m, 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 shed 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 toprehend the depth of his usation.


    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 ufortable.


    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 augh. 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 usations, 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 used her of being unfaith simply for sharing a hug with Oliver.
