"Jump, and I'll let her go..."
That sentence echoed in Suzy's mind over and over.
The man sneered when Suzy remained frozen.
"What's the matter? Didn't you say Diana is like a sister to you? Turns out it's all talk. When it comes down to it,
you're not willing to sacrifice your life for hers.
"Suzy, don't act so high and mighty. If you can't do it, stop pretending you're skind of hero."
Suzy knew his words were a deliberate provocation. It was a ploy to get under her skin, so she met his sneer with
a cold smile.
"If you want my life, you can have it. But first, | want the person behind you to show themselves."
"You want to meet the one pulling the strings?" The man raised an eyebrow, his tone dripping with contempt.
"Too bad, you're not worthy."
Suzy's smile deepened. "So, you admit there is someone behind you."
Realizing she had baited him into revealing more than he intended, the man's expression darkened.

"l already told you if you want my life, bring out your boss," Suzy replied coolly. Despite the dire situation, she
decided to gamble.
Sometimes, a weakness could be a double-edged sword.
The man knew how much she cared for Diana, which was why he was using her as leverage.
But he also understood that if Diana were truly harmed, his ability to manipulate Suzy would disappear entirely.
This was a psychological battle, one that only someone adept at reading others would dare to engage in.
Seeing Suzy's unwavering composure, the man's brows furrowed sharply. "Do you think | won't dare to hurt
Diana? Fine, I'll show you just how far I'm willing to go!"
He snapped his fingers. "Bring her over. Let them have one last reunion."
As his words fell, Diana was dragged into view from behind him, tightly bound and battered.
When Suzy saw Diana's bruised and bloodied appearance, her heart clenched, and she nearly lost control.
To avoid letting the man completely seize control, Suzy forced herself to suppress the anger and heartbreak
churning inside her, standing perfectly still.
The man hadn't expected such a reaction.
"Suzy, didn't you want to see Diana? Now you've seen her, but you don't look the least bit concerned. Strange...
it's almost as if you care at all."
Turning to Diana, he continued with a mocking tone. "Diana, you've been so worried about your former sister-in-
law, willing to risk your life to protect her. But look at her
en
ooo
now.
"She doesn't seem to care about you at all. Can she not see the state you're in? All those wounds?
"After all, a sister-in-law is just a sister-in-law. She could never care for you like a real sister would.
"And let's not forget, she's not even married to your brother anymore. Whatever she said to you was just for
show."
"Shut up!" Diana snapped, glaring at him fiercely.
"You have no right to say anything about my sister. What do you even know? Keep your mouth shut!"
Then, turning to Suzy with guilt-filled eyes, Diana said softly, "I'm sorry, Sis. I've beca burden to you again."
Those words hit Suzy like a powerful blow, shattering the indifferent facade she had worked so hard to maintain.

Diana truly was the best sister-in-law in the world, without a doubt.
Even after Suzy and Dylan's divorce, Diana's feelings toward her had never wavered. She still treated her with
the swarmth and loyalty as before.
The more Diana acted this way, the heavier the guilt weighed on Suzy's heart.
Taking a deep breath, she said, "If anyone should apologize, it'sYou should have had a happy,- carefree life,
but because of me, you've ended up in this en
mess"
