After My Rebirth, I Became the Beloved Sweetheart of the Big Boss!

Chapter 31 She’s Not a Burden



Suzy’s body trembled slightly. That kind of fear once again welled up in her heart.

Evan held her hand and said in a mellow voice, “I’ll send you home first.”

“Okay.”

Suzy left with Evan. The car drove on the busy road. She looked out of the window, feeling helpless.

“Evan, will I go to jail?”

Suzy didn’t want to go to jail.

However, Aaron had a strong background in Meladie. Once such a thing was traced back to Suzy, the Edgar family would not let go of Suzy.

Evan replied, “No, you won’t.”

Hearing his firm voice, a strange feeling surged within Suzy’s heart. Her stepparents and stepbrothers, who had lived together for more than twenty years, would do anything for money.

As for Evan…

They hadn’t known each other for a long time. Evan didn’t have to get involved in this mess.

Suzy was somewhat moved. “Thank you.”

When they arrived at the villa’s entrance, Suzy had already fallen asleep in the passenger seat. Evan paused for a moment and then gently picked her up…

When they arrived at the villa’s bedroom, Evan tucked her in and returned to the hotel.

At this moment, Thomas and Ervin were drinking wine within the hotel, and they looked at each other and said, “Do you think Mr. Hughes has fallen for Suzy?”

Ervin said, “I don’t know.”

Thomas said, “There have been countless women throughout the years that tried to seduce Mr. Hughes. I’ve never seen him treat any woman in this way.”

When Evan arrived at the hotel, he looked at Ervin and Thomas in the living room and asked, “Have you checked the surveillance footage?”

Thomas shook his head. The Carters family rented the entire hotel to hold the engagement ceremony.

“The Carters family asked the staff to tear down the surveillance cameras on this floor, saying that the distinguished guests there don’t like being monitored. Fortunately, Suzy made a big scene at the engagement party. Now the Carters family is busy dealing with the matters of Teresa and Levy. Otherwise, they probably won’t be able to handle this bombshell.”

Hearing that, Evan fell into silence.

The death of a scumbag was nothing to them. Ervin casually said, “If you want to protect Suzy, wouldn’t it be better if there were no surveillance cameras? I’ll clean up the scene and bring the corpse to the hospital to hide. Once Aaron goes missing, everything will be over.”

Evan tapped his fingers and pondered, carefully recalling the whole thing. He said lightly, “Something’s wrong.”

Thomas asked. “What’s wrong?”

Evan and the others came to the room of the accident. He looked around, then said, “Suzy said that Aaron is allergic to the smell of osmanthus. She is on guard against the Carters family’s plot against her, so she deliberately sprayed osmanthus perfume today.”

Thomas immediately replied. “But this room still has VK Perfume’s smell!”

VK Perfume was one of CIRA’s perfumes, and Thomas was very familiar with it. He’d originally thought that it was from Suzy!

However, Suzy had already sprayed out osmanthus perfume. She couldn’t spray VK Perfume out again.

As for VK Perfume, it was mainly the fragrance of a woman type.

Ervin asked, “So, a third person came to this room?”

Evan fell into deep thought. “Yes.”

But according to Suzy’s description, there was no third person at the crime scene.

It would be fine if this person came to the room before. However, there was another possibility. This person had been hiding somewhere in the room, witnessing the entire process of Suzy killing people…

Evan rubbed between his eyebrows. He didn’t have much to think about for a while, so he told Ervin, “This floor is not open to the public for the time being. Find a reliable person to check if there are any fingerprints or traces at the scene. Then, take Aaron back for an autopsy.”

Ervin nodded. Then, he asked in puzzlement, “How did Suzy know that Aaron is allergic to osmanthus perfume?”

Evan was slightly stunned and fell into silence. No one could answer this question.

In the end, the three of them left the hotel. Ervin still had something to say, so he got into the passenger seat of Evan.

“Suzy’s blood examination report came out.” He was silent for a while, then continued, “Fluid-K poisoned her.”

Hearing that, Evan tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

“This is a rare slow-acting poison developed in Vailand. In the beginning, there were no symptoms of it acting up. After about a year, the toxin will invade internal organs and slowly take effect. In half a year, it will attack frequently and torture people to death.”

Evan asked in a cold voice, “Can you detoxify it?”

Ervin shook his head. The Carters family must have poisoned Suzy to control her. They didn’t want her to die.

“Now, either the Carters family gives the antidote to Suzy or find Doctor Silas.”

The Carters family and Suzy had fallen out completely. It was very difficult to ask the Carters family for help; even if the Carters family had the antidote, they would not give it to her easily. It was even more difficult to find Doctor Silas.

Evan clutched the steering wheel tightly. Veins stood out on the back of his hand, emanating a gloomy aura from head to toe.

Ervin hesitated for a moment and said, “Mr. Hughes, why don’t you get rid of this trouble since you haven’t fallen too deep in love yet… Suzy, she’s a burden.”

In the silent car, Evan replied, “Ervin, she’s not a burden.”

“Back then, it was Suzy who saved my life.”

Ervin pursed his lips. “But…”

“You can return first. Do not tell Suzy about this matter for the time being.”

In the end, Ervin didn’t say anything else. He stepped down and left.

Evan returned to the villa’s entrance, sat in the driver’s seat, smoked, and then got out of the car and walked into the villa. In the dark room, Suzy was still asleep.

He went to the bathroom to take a shower. When he came out again, Suzy was sitting at the head of the bed with empty eyes and a pale face.

In a low voice, Evan hurried over and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Suzy grabbed her hand and muttered, “Aaron came to find me. He came to find me to take my life.”

“Suzy, don’t be afraid. It’s all a dream. It’s all fake.”

After saying that, Evan took a tissue to wipe the sweat on her forehead and continued, “Go to sleep. I’ll stay with you.”

Suzy hugged Evan tightly and leaned into Evan’s embrace. She gradually calmed down when she sensed the familiar scent all around her. However, she didn’t feel sleepy at all.

In the quiet atmosphere, she suddenly asked, “When do you plan to attack the Carters family?”

In her past life, Evan had punished the Carters family a year later.

Evan was silent for a moment, then said slowly, “Suzy, just take care of yourself. You don’t have to worry about anything else.”

After being reborn, Suzy didn’t want to care about these things. Still, she understood that she couldn’t be that bystander any longer.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

She pursed her lips and smiled helplessly. “I don’t want to help you. I want to help myself.”

She was tired, and the Carters family’s members constantly thought of ways to scheme against her. Suzy slowly said, “Leave the matter of ACLC and Dreaming Pictures to me.”

Evan didn’t say anything. He wanted Suzy to stay out of this, and he didn’t want her to be hurt again.
