Chapter 1726
"Susan, you better shut your trap!" Callum gritted his teeth, his anger barely contained.
This was the police station, after all. He couldn''t afford tosh out at Susan in full view of everyone.
But Susan just tilted her head back andughed, a sharp, unnerving cackle that made one''s skin
crawl.
After herughter faded, her expression turned venomous. She leaned in close to Callum and
hissed, "Remember three years ago, Callum? When you came to me to ruin Lysander and
Thssa''s rtionship, to drive a wedge between them? Mr. Gordon should recall that pretty well,
shouldn''t he?"
"I seized the moment to sabotage Thssa during the y rehearsal, making sure the prop fell right
towards Lysander''s head, framing it as Thssa''s attempt to kill him. That was just the beginning of
their troubles. Later, when Thssa and her mother visited Eldoria, you orchestrated their boat
ident, causing Thssa''s mom to fall overboard. You knew Lysander, being ex-military, wouldn''t
dive in without assessing the situation first, making Thssa desperate and helpless to save her
own mother."
"You were well aware that Thssa and Lysander were already on thin ice, and nothing mattered
more to Thssa than her mom. If Lysander didn''t jump in to save her immediately, Thssa would
surely suspect his intentions, believing he wanted revenge on her mom, willing to watch her drown!"
"Stop it!" Callum''s voice was a threatening whisper, his breathing heavy with suppressed rage.
But Susan was beyond reason, driven mad by the threat of imprisonment Callum held over her.
How could she keep these secrets bottled up any longer?
"Then, back at the hotel, you made sure the front desk refused to let Thssa and Evelyn
Pendleton check out, forcing them to stay, all to turn Thssa against Lysander! Making her believe
it was all Lysander''s doing, aiming to iste her mom!"
Susan had dug into their past after Thssa and Lysander returned from Eldoria, uncovering these
sordid details.

"And if you think that was bad, there''s worse. How do you think Thssa would feel knowing all
this, huh?"
Ignoring Callum''s darkening expression, Susan smiled wickedly, "When my dad was jailed, you
goaded him into using old photos of Evelyn, creating a scandalous video suggesting Evelyn was a
homewrecker, spreading it for the world to see. Evelyn was reviled, all because of that rumor you
helped spread, leading her down a path of no return!"
Outside, Thssa, overhearing this, felt her world shatter. Her blood ran cold, her breathing tight,
herplexion ghostly pale.
"Susan, shut up!" Callum couldn''t contain himself any longer, his voice a low growl. His fists
clenched, veins bulging, his jaw muscles trembling with rage as he red at Susan, "Just wait, I''ll
get you out of here. But if you utter a single word of this to anyone, you know what''sing for
you!"
"Mr. Gordon, I''ll be waiting for your rescue. As long as you keep me safe, I won''t speak a word of
what you don''t want said," Susan finally said with a smirk.
Callum shot her a lethal nce before turning to leave.
As he opened the door to exit, his eyes caught Thssa, who had been eavesdropping, sitting on
the waiting bench, her ear practically glued to the wall.
The moment she saw him, their eyes locked.
In that instant, Callum''s eyes went from shock to fear, then to guilt, and finally, silence.
He just stood there, looking at Thssa, wordlessly.
Thssa''s eyes, wide with shock, anger, and betrayal, stared back at Callum.
Though no words were exchanged, the air was thick with emotion—a tumultuous mix of trust
shattered, disillusionment, despair, and rage.
Thssa clenched her fists so tightly her body shook, ring at Callum as she spat out, "So, this is
it!"
With that, she turned and stormed away.
Once, she had thought Lysander was the devil incarnate, and Callum, a gentle, generous soul, her
savior from Lysander''s clutches, always there to support her unconditionally.
But now, she realized Callum was the true monster, the greatest deceiver of them all.
