NovelEnglishChapter 0811 She drove aimlessly, just following the road, unsure of where she was actually going.
It had been over two hours, and still, there was no call from the other side.
As always, they only ever contacted her.
She had no way of reaching them.
The number they used was heavily encrypted.
She tried tracing it before, but every tshe called back, no one answered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe next tthey contacted her, it was always from a different number.
Just as she was starting to feel impatient, her phone rang.
This time, it wasn't them-it was Simon.
"I thought you were just grabbing a few things. It's been over two hours. Why aren't you back yet?" "Women take longer when they shop, you know that," Suzy joked, keeping her tone light as she continued driving.
"Con, Simon, it's rare forto have free time. Letenjoy it a little. I'll cback when I'm done." Simon caught the faint noise of the road in the background. "Are you driving?" "Yeah, finished one store, heading to another. You wouldn't believe how much variety they have here in Xandria- way more than back home. I figured I might as well stock up while I can." Simon didn't suspect anything. "Alright, take your time. You haven't had much of a chance to relax lately-use this tto unwind. Just be careful, okay?" "I know, I know!" Suzy chuckled.
"Simon, do I ever stop being a kid in your eyes?" "Of course not," Simon said without hesitation.
"No matter how old you get, you'll always be that little girl who used to cry in my arms." Hearing those words, Suzy couldn't help but feel a wave of nostalgia.
Growing up, she had always been closest to her eldest brother.
Her other two brothers loved her too, but they had their limits.
Simon, on the other hand, had none.
His love for her was boundless-so much so that even outsiders used to comment on it.
No matter what she did, he never scolded her.
Sometimes, he even took the blfor her mistakes.
Thinking back on those memories, Suzy's eyes stung with unshed tears.

"You have no idea how often I brag about you to Evangeline. Sometimes, she even gets jealous!" Suzy laughed. "Then maybe tone it down a bit in front of her. I mean am amazing, but still-she's even better! Simon, meeting her wasn't just your luck; it was a blessing for our whole family." "Couldn't agree more," Simon said with a smile.
"That's exactly why I treat her so well." Then, as if something suddenly crossed his mind, he added, "Speaking of which, she's been out Vel for a while now. I should probably give her a call and check in."
Hearing that Evangeline had left the house too, Suzy asked casually, "Did she head to the office?" As the head of Xandria, Evangeline had a lot on her plate.
She had already spent a long tresting at hdue to her pregnancy, so it made sense theshe' have a backlog that with.

"Yeah, I think so. You left, and right after, she did too. She said she had something urgent to take care of."
Nothing about that sounded unusual to Suzy, so she simply said, "Your should call her, then. Check in and make sure she's okay." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
