The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles)
Chapter 488

Suzy looked up at Annie's face hesitantly. "Annie, do you resent me for not helping you in time back then?" She was referring to when she and Winter saw those people taking Annie away but did not intervene. "Let's not talk about the past. I wasn't there when you were in trouble either!" Annie patted Suzy's hand. "Come on, let's eat!"

Perhaps because a weight was lifted from her heart, Suzy's mood improved considerably. She ate two full portions of the meal before putting down her cutlery.

Still concerned, Annie opened her social media forum for Suzy to see. Suzy searched for news about the recent incident and found no trace of it. That was when she finally believed Annie.

"See? My brother said those rich kids from last time also promised they deleted all footage and would keep quiet about the whole thing. Can you relax now?"

Suzy nodded. "Thank you, Annie. Really, thank you!"

"We're best friends. This is what I'm supposed to do. But I'm going abroad in a few days. My brother found a plastic surgery specialist for me, so... Suzy, if you're feeling down, you could come with me. "It'll be a nice change of scenery, and after some time passes, people will forget about many things."

Suzy shook her head. "No, I'm not going."

She did not want to leave just yet. "Although this incident is over, I'm not satisfied. I really can't accept it!"

Annie asked anxiously, "Suzy, what are you planning to do? Don't do anything rash! You're finally in the clear, so don't do anything foolish!"

"Don't worry, Annie. I'm not that

stupid. I wont do anything reckless!" Suzy assured Annie. "Your face is more important. Go abroad for that surgery. I'll wait for your return, but right now, I have more important things to do!"

She needed to go back and apologize to her parents and explain everything clearly. Although she was wilful before, she always obeyed her family.

When this incident broke out, she initially chose to run away. Her family must have been very worried and disappointed. She had to go back and explain everything to them. As for Winter...

A dark gleam flashed in Suzy's eyes. Even if this incident were an accident, Winter's actions had caused her and Annie to pay such a high price. Suzy simply could not get past this.

"Winter is my good friend. How could I leave her at a time like this?"

"Suzy, what are you planning to do? Don't do anything rash. Winter said she didn't know the details and didn't expect things to turn out like this. She's been running around these past few days, so..."

"She didn't know the details? Weren't those paparazzi hired by her? And wasn't it those paparazzi who leaked the news that day? Annie, stop making excuses for her.

"Don't you remember what she was

like when we were in school? She

was jealous of Noelle, so she always opposed her. And us? We were just guns in her hands, and when things went wrong, we were the ones who took the fall.

"She's done so much. It's time she paid the price for it."
