Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin) novel Chapter 298

The news had been trending for a few days now, and if it weren't for his secretary mentioning this to him all of a sudden, he might not have even known about it at all.

Frankie sat heavily on the couch, feeling frustration overwhelm him.

Todd frowned. He didn't know why Frankie had to be so mysterious about it. Why couldn't he just say it directly?

He grabbed the phone anyway. After a brief glance, he was stunned. The woman in the video was Suzanne!

He immediately rewound the video to rewatch the front part. "Let's welcome the miracle doctor, Dr. Jane Smith."

Suzanne walked into Todd's line of sight after the host's introduction. Todd had to replay it several times to be completely sure that it was really Suzanne.

Todd turned to Frankie and stuttered, "H-How could this woman be Dr. Jane Smith?"

Instantly, Todd felt like he had been dunked into ice cold water.

If any of the needles had been pierced in the wrong spot during his treatment that day, his life as he knew it would have…

Todd trembled uncontrollably. It was too scary a thought for him.

Frankie crossed his arms in front of his chest. The pressure he emitted was scary and heavy, and he said gravely, "Now you know why I was so worried about you?"

They knew very well how great the rift between Suzanne and their family was.

Todd's body stiffened. The phone he held slipped out of his hand and fell onto the bed. The video was still playing, telling them how skillful Jane was as a doctor.

Todd naturally knew how skilled Jane was. But how could Jane be Suzanne?

It felt like the strength was zapped entirely out of him as he asked weakly, "What do we do now, Dad?"

Even though his health was better, he was still miles away from being able to sleep with a woman and father a child.

But if he continued to allow Jane to treat him, she might use the opportunity to take revenge, and he might lose his life. Conversely, if he didn't allow her to treat him, he would never feel complete again.

Todd felt a little regretful. Why did he even choose to find trouble with Suzanne before this?

If he hadn't done that, he wouldn't be in this situation today.

Frankie stopped pacing. He looked back at Todd and said sternly, "It has to work, no matter what. This is our only way out. Reel in your hatred toward her right now. Some revenge plans take time. We don't have to act on it immediately. We'll deal with Henry first."

Todd might be a Casanova, but he still understood the mechanics of things.

He cursed under his breath, "Fuck! We have to teach Henry a good lesson. I have to vent this anger!"

Henry should be prepared to pay the consequences of scheming against him like this.

Frankie nodded. "I will. I'll go ahead and prepare for our meeting with Suzanne."

He didn't say anything more as he walked out the door.

Todd saw his room door close, and the audio from the video couldn't stop pouring into his ears. He picked up the phone and continued watching the video.

His gaze was fixed on Suzanne the entire time. "Fuck, Suzanne has a fucking good figure."

It was a shame that he didn't get to sleep with her.
