She kept talking non–stop. Her eyes were focused intently on the road ahead. At the end, she still
sure to ask for her opinion. “Can you accept this?”
“That diamond collector is you, fin’t it?”“ Victoria didn’t hesitate to call her mit, though her heart warmed at having a friend like her…
Sasie showed no sign of being caught. “What?
The only person in his social circle whe
Victoria dihet want to diag her deeper into this. “Leon already told me that as long as he doesn’t give the green light, no one will dare to boy this ring. Th would go against him to help me Is you”
“Are you stupid?” Susie insisted, not admitting to anything, “Others might not date to offend him, but his enemies sure don’t care.”
just then, her phone buzzed with a series of messages. Each one notified her that her card had been suspended.
Among them was a text hom Vergil, labeled “Scumbag Bad”.
Thad one freeze your card Leon just sent word. No one is allowed to interfere with Victoria’s matters, , or the Sutton Group will pay the price. If you need anything, let me know, and
Susie stared at the message, stunned, while Victoria looked at her unfazed
Susie pulled into the parking lot while still trying to deny it. “Do you believe this is just my dad’s prank?”
“I believe it,” Victoria answered quickly, then added with a grin, “Stop lying to me.”
Susie was on the verge of losing it. She didn’t even care that Victoria knew she had been lying. She grabbed her phone and dialed Vergil
Her card had been frozen. Now, she was left wondering how she was supposed to transfer one million to Victoria.
Victoria trached over and hung up the phone.
“What are you doing?” Susie asked, confused by her action.
“You’ve already done so much for me,” Victoria replied upon seeing the messages on her phone
She understood that what Leon wanted was for her to stand on her own without relying on anyone. “I’ll handle the test,”
“How are you going to handle this? You see how he’s playing you, right? He’s clearly trying to cut off your options and leave you

“Can’t you see he’s deliberately making things difficult for you?”
Victoria couldn’t deny it
When Leon had stopped her from looking for a job, she thought it was just because she rejected his request when she mentioned divorce. He must have felt embarrassed, so he made things
But after Laura’s condition worsened, and Victoria saw the things he said and did to keep her in his arms, everything became clear to her
Not to mention the other things that had happened earlier.
“I can see it. That’s why I can’t let anything happen to you,” Victoria said, trying to sound lighthearted
“You’re my last support. You can’t be knocked down so soon.”
Susie wanted to argue, to say that Lean couldn’t break her, but then she thought about how easily he had frozen her card. She didn’t know how to counter that
She knew if Leon was serious, her entertainment company wouldn’t last three days. The Sutton Corporation would be crushed under his pressure.
This man held power everywhere. If he wanted something, it was just a thought away.
“From now on, let’s just chat Blue we used to. We’ll talk and keep it simple,” Victoria said. She was clearly aware of Leon’s methods.
She didn’t want Susie to get caught up in this “When I’m busy, just help me look after Edwin. Don’t worry about anything else.”
“Del_” Susie hated her own powerlessness for the last time
Voightly tapped her forehead “Listen to me.”
“But you’ve got to tell me what’s going on Why are you so desperate to sell the ring?”
Susie couldn’t just let go of her woles. At the very least, she needed to know the general situation.
“My mom’s condition suddenly worsened, and she needs surgery.” Victoria said, no longer hiding the truth. “The cost of the surgery is at least 50 thousand dollary.
