NovelEnglishChapter 0812 Suzy hadn't thought much of it at first.
She followed the instructions given to her.
There was no reason for them to target Evangeline or so she believed.
But just minutes after hanging up, Simon called again.
"Suzy, I can't get through to Evangeline!" Hearing that, a wave of unease washed over her.
"Lettry." She quickly ended the call and dialed Evangeline's number.
Once.
Twice.
She didn't answer again and again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJust as she was about to call Simon back, her phone rang.
It was an unknown number.
The moment she saw it, a chill ran down her spine.
A sinking feeling settled in her gut as she took a deep breath and answered.
The voice on the other end was as cold as ever.
"Miss Frost, I've decided on a meeting place. Cto the Grandview Hotel—" "Is Evangeline with you?" Suzy cut him off, her voice sharp with anger.
A low chuckle echoed through the line.
"Oh? How did you figure that out? I was just about to tell you, but I guess your brother beatto it." "You promisedyou wouldn't touch them!" Suzy snarled, pulling her car to the side of the road, her grip tightening around the wheel.
"I did everything you asked why the hell are you going back on your word?" The voice on the other end let out an amused laugh.
"Did I ever actually promise you anything?" Suzy's heart pounded with fury.
"And even if I had, I never said I'd keep my word. That's the thing about me-I never play fair.
"I would've thought you'd learned that by now. But clearly, you still don't knowwell enough.
"Or maybe you do know, but you're just too naive to admit it. Honestly, I'm surprised you even believedin the first place.
"If I were you, I wouldn't trust a damn thing my enemy said." Suzy clenched her jaw.
"Cut the crap. Just tellwhat the hell do you want?" "What I want? Haven't you already Ofred The voice on the Out?" The voice on the d let out a loswnoel "I want your life, Suzy. But unfortunately, you're not willing to give it to me.
"If you had just handed it over sooner, I wouldn't have had to touch the people around you. Everything that's happening to them right now? That's your fault." The casual cruelty in their tone made Suzy's grip on the phone tighten. "Enough talking. Your sister-in-law is waiting for you better hurry up." Evangeline was in their hands.
There was no way Suzy was going to leave her behind.
She raced toward the hotel at full speed, pushing her car to its limits.
The moment she stepped through the lobby doors, she was met with resistance.
Two men blocked her path.

"Orders from above-we need to search you. Please cooperate." Suzy didn't argue.
She stood still as they patted her down.
Every weapon she had, her custom silver needles, the specialized watch e op her wist, was confiscated.
Only after they stripped her of anything useful did they finally let her ve through. She was led to a penthouse suite.
The second she walked in, her eyes locked onto Evangeline tied up, m restrained, But very much alive. "Sis-" "Don't cany closer!" Evangeline cut her off, shaking her head urgently.
"Suzy, get out of here! Leave me!" Like hell she would.
"Evangeline, if I were the one in danger, would you leavebehind?" "This is different," Evangeline argued.
"You mean too much to Simon-if anything happens to you, it'll break him!" "And you don't mean just as much to him?" Evangeline opened her mouth to respond, but before she could, a cold, mocking voice filled the room.
"How touching. But let's not waste targuing, ladies. Because today-neither of you are leaving." swnowl mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
