Chapter 522 Believing He Was the End

Susanna was never one to mince words. Faced with Connor's unexpected and unconventional approach, she raised her chin gracefully, smiled at him, and then leaned in close, saying, "Indeed, it's been quite a while, about nine years."

She also considered the possibility of a somewhat cordial encounter, where Connor had moved on completely, and they met as strangers, exchanging casual greetings as a form of closure. But never in her wildest thoughts did she imagine Connor actively seeking her out, especially on his return to the country, and then pinning her against the wall.
