Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin) novel Chapter 299

Todd was drawn in by Suzanne's figure the entire time he was watching the video, but he didn't dare to touch Suzanne now.

No matter how horny he was, he knew what was more important.

He couldn't touch Suzanne, at least not before he had completely recovered.

…

Suzanne got to the office early the next morning.

The moment she got out of her car and closed the door, she saw Cheryl standing at the entrance in a white dress. She looked frail and tired, her face was ashen. She looked so paper-thin that a stronger breeze would have been able to knock her down.

Suzanne frowned. It had only been a while since she last saw Cheryl. How did she become so frail and tired?

Cheryl broke into a smile the moment she saw Suzanne. She walked toward Suzanne, but she halted, looking a little apprehensive.

Suzanne walked toward Cheryl. Before she said anything, Cheryl anxiously looked at her and asked, "Suzanne, can we head there?"

Suzanne followed her gaze and saw a café that was near her office.

Emotions flashed in Suzanne's eyes. She nodded, not rejecting Cheryl's invitation.

They quickly made their way to the café. When the waiter brought them the coffee they ordered, he said respectfully, "Please enjoy."

After the waiter had left, Suzanne took a sip of the coffee and looked curiously at Cheryl. "What is it?"

Cheryl didn't dare to look at Suzanne. She kept her head low as she twiddled with her fingers, looking very anxious. After contemplating for a while, she said, "I'm sorry for what happened the last time."

Cheryl had always wanted to apologize to Suzanne, but she was anxious and afraid that Suzanne wouldn't want to see her, which was why it took so long for her to muster her courage.

Suzanne replied flatly, "You've already apologized over the phone."

She didn't expect them to do such a thing to Suzanne.

People often said that parents wouldn't harm their children, but what they did was…

Cheryl was drowning in regret, but she couldn't explain too much. It would just seem like she was merely defending herself. It was just that she really didn't want to lose such a good friend.

Suzanne paused, her stoic eyes fixed on Cheryl as she said faintly, "Would you feel better hearing me say I forgive you after you schemed against me?"

If so, she had already said it before, but it didn't seem to do Cheryl any good.

Cheryl stiffened, and her head dropped even lower.

Suzanne continued, "I've known you since high school, Cheryl. To me, you've always been a hardworking and motivated girl. Life might be hard for you, but you've never given up."

It was these traits that had attracted Suzanne to her.
