Chapter 709
“Susan, don’t you have anything else you desire? I swear I’ll make it up to you.” Evan genuinely wanted
to repay her.
“This was the only reason I lived for.”
Disappointed, the woman stood up and headed towards the door.
“Susan?”
She ignored his call.
After Susan left, Evan was still unsettled.
The sight of her crying profusely was going through his mind on repeat.
“This wish gave me the strength to push through…”
“This was the only reason I lived for.”
She left just like that. Will everything be okay?
He soon realized that the way the woman had walked out looked as if she was resolved to die.
He felt an intense sense of dread and immediately took off with his coat before running after her.
When he finally caught up to Susan, she was standing beside ake. He got out of the car and hurried
over to her. However, before he could reach her, Susan jumped into the water without any warning.
“Susan!”
He dashed over to thekeside and saw her drowning in the water. Without any hesitation, he dived in.
Despite the water being freezing cold, Evan tried his best to pull Susan to shore.
It as if the woman had lost her will to live. The fact that a young girl like Susan was giving up her life
pained him inside.
After getting ashore, Evan gave her chestpressions until she coughed up water and opened her
eyes.
“Evan, why did you save me? You should’ve just let me die.”
“Susan, you’re still young. You have such a long road ahead of you.”
She let out a bitter smile. “Evan, if it weren’t for that promise, I’d have died then and there. I was able to
come so far because of it! Evan… L-let me ask you onest time. You really won’t marry me?
“Susan…”

Evan’s voice became rough. He was in a hard ce right now.
“Evan, I’m not gonna me you for the decision. Just let me die. Living is pointless; I want to die!”
She stood up as she spoke and waddled towards theke once more. Evan was doing all he could to
stop her.
“Susan.”
Am I going to just watch her die? How can I feel at ease knowing that I let this happen? I already owe
her too much. I can’t allow her to give up her life now. But… Nicole…
Evan felt torn by the immense pressure; the dilemma was suffocating him.
In the end, he took a deep breath. His eyes were bloodshot as he clenched his fists and gritted his
teeth. He then eximed, “Alright! I’ll marry you!”
A brief silence ensued.
A hint of joy shed across Susan’s eyes as she turned around. “Evan, what did you just say? You’ll
marry me? You’ll actually marry me?” She was in disbelief.
Evan’s clenched fists were crackling from the amount of force he was applying.
He shut his eyes and swallowed all the heartache he felt, forcing out a nod.
“Evan…” Susan dived toward him joyously.
At that instance, Evan could hear Levant’s words in his head.
“Nicole is free now. Having amnesia is just what she needed to restart her life. It only gets better for her
as time passes. Why would you want her to remember all those terrible memories?”
Evan let out a loose breath. Nicole, I’m truly sorry. I wish you all the best in life.
Evan brought Susan back to the estate, and Levant’s men immediately reported everything that had
happened to Levant.
The man was astonished at what he heard.
“What did you say? Evan’s marrying Susan?”
“Yes, I heard him agreeing to it loud and clear.”
Levant raised an eyebrow at that response. Is this a dream? My greatestpetitor withdrew before I
even did anything! How?
He had thought Susan was a shy andpliant woman. Who would have thought the woman would
take down Evan for him. Levant was thoroughly impressed.
I wonder what Nicole will say about this? Will she be happy to hear this?
Levant went to visit Nicole early in the morning the next day and gave her the news
