Victor thought Dylan was wallowing in his emotions, but in reality, Dylan was busy tracking down Suzy's
whereabouts.
Despite his efforts, he couldn't uncover even the smallest trace. It was as if she were intentionally hiding herself.
And Dylan was right-Suzy was indeed deliberately concealing her movements. She didn't want anyone to know
where she was going.
This time, she had traveled to a notoriously lawless area, a place riddled with crime, drugs, and illegal gambling-
an infamous no-man's-land.
The lead she had received claimed that her father had been hidden there by Charlotte. The source was reliable,
but pinpointing the exact location would require more investigation.
The lack of security in the area becevident the moment Suzy arrived. As soon as she stepped out of her car,
she felt eyes on her.
A shifty-looking man with sharp, darting eyes deliberately bumped into her, quickly apologizing. "Sorry about
that, miss! Did | hurt you? My bad, | was in such a rush I didn't see where | was going. My house is just nearby. To

"My wife's an amazing cook. Letcall her right now-she'll whip up a few of her best dishes for you!"
The man spoke in the local dialect, and Suzy, luckily equipped with a translator, managed to understand his
words. Without it, she wouldn't have had a clue what he was saying.
Not speaking the local language herself, she simply shook her head and replied firmly, "No." But the man wasn't
deterred. Switching to broken Zentoran, he tried again. "You look like you're from Zentora. My Zentoran is not
good, but | can say a little. | promise | didn't bump you on purpose, and | sincerely apologize.
"If you
don't accept my apology, it means you don't forgive me."
He gestured toward a group of men nearby who were watching the exchange with interest." They sawbump
into you. Around here, people love sticking their noses in others' business. If you don't accept my apology, they'll
start pointing fingers at me."
The scheming glint in the man's eyes didn't escape Suzy's notice. She kept her expression calm, her gaze steady.
"Is that so?" she said lightly.
"Exactly!" The man nodded quickly. "People these days are always meddling in others’ lives,

pointing fingers at everything."
Suzy gave a small nod of agreement. "That does seem to be the case. Well, in that case, with you."

The man's face lit up with excitement. "Really? That's great! I'll call my wife right now!" He pulled out his phone
and made a call, speaking in a language so obscure that even Suzy's translator couldn't process it.
When he finished, he glanced at her, as if worried she might grow suspicious, and offered an explanation. "My
wife and | just got married. She's not from around here and doesn't understand the local dialect, so | learned her
language instead. You probably didn't understand any of it, right?"
"Not a word," Suzy replied with a smile. "Even my translator couldn't pick it up."
A flicker of satisfaction flashed in the man's eyes-quick but unmistakable. Suzy caught it easily, though she
didn't let on.
"It's a rare language where she's from. It tooka long tto learn. Anyway, let's go! My wife was thrilled
when | told her we'd have a guest!"
"Meeting such warm people is always a pleasure," Suzy said with a faint smile.
Following him back to his home, everything initially seemed normal. Just as he'd said, his wife was enthusiastic

After dinner, she even drew a bath for Suzy, warmly insisting that she stay the night.
Suzy politely declined at first, but after a bit of token hesitation, she agreed.
After her bath, she went to bed. But barely an hour had passed before she heard voices outside her door.
"This one's top-tier merchandise. She'll fetch a great price."
"Forget selling her. I'm planning to gift her to Mr. Drake. His birthday's coming up
in a couple of days, and he's going to love this rare find!"
