The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 486

Meanwhile, Suzy had spent several days at Cody's suburban villa. During this time, she turned off her phone, avoided all social media platforms, and essentially cut herself off from the outside world.

She did not even dare to turn on the television, fearing that once she did, the unbearable images would flood her mind and overwhelm her.

In just a few short days, Suzy tormented herself to the point of becoming almost unrecognizable. She despised Winter, but at the same time, she felt utterly helpless.

On several occasions, she even contemplated ending her life, no longer wanting to face the world. However, the thought of dying while Winter continued to live well made her reluctant to give up.

Annie was the most frequent and only visitor who knew Suzy's whereabouts during these days. She came almost every morning, noon, and night but never stayed for long. Suzy knew Annie meant well, but she did not want to see anyone, not even Annie.

On the fifth day of Suzy's self-imposed isolation, Annie arrived at Cody's villa once again.

Seeing the mess everywhere, a flash of impatience crossed Annie's face, followed by a deep sense of helplessness.

Annie quickly tidied up. When she could find Suzy in the living room, she went upstairs. Sure enough, she found Suzy huddled in a corner of the bedroom.

Suzy was staring blankly at nothing in particular, unaware of Annie's presence.

Taking a deep breath, Annie understood Suzy's current state of mind. After all, not long ago, she herself was in a similar dark place.

However, she eventually got back on her feet. However, unlike Suzy, her innocence was not taken away, so their experiences were not entirely the same.
