Chapter 381
Brielle couldn't help but doubt the sincerity of the woman before her. After years
of blind devotion, how could she suddenly see the light?
Was Sue just probing her?
Before Brielle could respond, Sue continued to mutter to herself.
“It's all my fault. I've ruined everything, my parents, Sarah... I kept thinking Simon
would change. for the better. I've invested so much. Quitting now would be like
abandoning everything I've worked for, right?”
A flicker of understanding crossed Brielle’s eyes. Staying with a guy like Simon
was like playing the slots in Vegas. Once you started, you couldn't pull yourself
away because you were convinced that the next pull might be the jackpot. That
tantalizing taste of victory was addictive, and the rollercoaster ride of highs and
lows was overwhelmingly disorienting.
So, of course, Sue wouldn't snap out of it that quickly. Others must have warned
her about Simon before.
Her current confession was nothing more than a test for Brielle. But at least,
Brielle thought, Sue was starting to think for herself.
“Sue, after you leave the precinct, check this place out,” Brielle said, handing her
a scrap of
paper.
Sue instinctively stepped back, her guard up. She clearly didn't trust Brielle.
Brielle had no patience for further talk. She tossed the note and walked away.
The address on the paper made Sue's pupils shrink. It was the house she had
sold off long ago, a place she hadn't returned to since.
What was Brielle implying?
Seeing the confusion etched on Sue's face, Brielle offered a reminder, “Aren't
you curious to see who ended up with the house you sold for a song?”
Sue clutched the paper, her heart pounding. Brielle wouldn't share this address
without reason. “The cousin who introduced you to Simon, wasn’t she the one
who came from the countryside. seeking your help? She got your house for a
steal and now has found herself a decent guy. She’s living the dream with a
perfect little family.”
That cousin, just like Simon, was uneducated. In her cousin's eyes, Sue didn't
deserve her city life or her college degree. She wanted to ruin Sue, so she set
her up with Simon.
And Sue played right into her hands. Her life was shattered by Simon.
Sue collapsed, her mind buzzing, tears flowing like a faucet left open. Sue’s face
turned pale,

her mind buzzing. Her legs gave out, and she knelt on the ground.
She didn’t have the heart to ponder over Brielle’s intentions now. The fact that
Brielle got the guts to give her this address showed that it had been verified.
The happier her cousin led her life, the more it proved how successful her
scheme was back. then, and how much of a failure Sueu was.
She collapsed on the ground, trembling all over. This was ten thousand times
more painful than losing Simon.

She was no qualified mother.
Brielle raised an eyebrow, gauging the truth in her words. Whether true or false, it
was no longer Brielle’s concern. She was no saint.
“That person is too powerful for you to touch,” Brielle said.
Sue looked up, determination in her eyes. “Just tell me who it is.”
