“We can hold hands and head upstairs together,” Suzanne shyly suggested. Her intention was to piss Sally off by appearingintimately close to Nathan.
“You want us to hold hands?” Nathan questioned, arching an eyebrow.

To her surprise, Nathan suddenly leaned in and whispered in her ear,” Simply holding hands won’t be enough.”

Under the watchful eyes of the onlookers, Nathan carried Suzan upstairs to their bedroom.
Meanwhile, Sally was seething with anger, yet no one bothered to offer her words of comfort.
Standing next to Taylor, Wendy murmured with doubt, “Do you think Nathan has truly fallen for Suzanne?”“Suzanne's got beauty, talent, and kindness. Even the most ordinary
man would be smitten,” Taylor remarked with a chuckle.
“| always thought Nathan was loyal and devoted. How could he change his feelings so suddenly?” Wendy mused.
Taylor glanced at Sally before replying, “Interestingly, Suzanne resembles bears a striking resemblance to a younger Sally. Hergentle demeanor is quite similar, too. It’s not surprising Nathan would be drawn to her.”
Intrigued, Wendy asked, “What did Sally look like when she was younger? Do you have a picture?”
Taylor swiftly retrieved his phone, scrolling through his gallery before showing Wendy a photo. As Wendy gazed at it, herexpression turned from confusion to astonishment.
It was a group photo featuring the Morrison brothers with a young Sally. In the image, Sally appeared as a chubby child withsparkling eyes and an adorable smile.
“Oh my god. She really does look like Suzanne, especially in her and smile! It seems Nathan has had a type since his youth,”We remarked, returning the phone to Taylor.
All of a sudden, Taylor blurted out, “Could it be possible that Suzanne is actually Sally?”
In an instant, Wendy smacked him on the head and scolded, “What the hell were you thinking? The Hoffins watched Sally growup. You think they wouldn’t recognize their own child?”
Their peculiar exchange drew the attention of those nearby. Sensing the stares, Taylor hurriedly clarified, “Please don’t mind us.We're just fooling around.”
Meanwhile, Nathan had swept Suzanne into the bedroom, kicking the
door shut behind them. Sensing they were alone, Suzanne quickly withdrew her hand and tried to push Nathan away.
“Put me down. You're still recovering,” she murmured, her voice tinged with shyness.
Ignoring her request, Nathan gently set Suzanne down on the bed. She lay there quietly-her hair scattered across the sheets,her face flushed with red, and her eyes shimmering with coyness
In that moment, she looked utterly alluring.
