Chapter 153


    Hearing Scarlett release a deep sigh, Susan was not upset. She even smiled and consoled her, “Don’t


    fret. With this little bit of money, I’ll get it back soon after selling a few more bottles of wine”


    Scarlett could not be at ease, knowing how Susan had earned the money for the house.


    Thanks to the tips she had earned from drinking with the customers, she slowly umted them hit

    by bit.


    Although recently promoted to manager and no longer needing to be drown in alcohol, if she wanted to


    recoup her losses, she still had to stay upte.


    Scarlett feared Susan wouldn’t be able to withstand it, yet Susan wore an expression of indifference.


    “What you should be most concerned about now is the rtionship between you, Liam, and Sebastian,


    not me.”


    Tve endel things with both of them, and now you’re the only one left by my side. Of course, you’re the


    only one I care abour”


    “Don’t fret, I’m equipped with hands and feet. If anything arises in the future, I can rearrange my


    forces.”


    Susan was not afraid of being abandoned, yet she still trusted Cosmo, so she was not inclined to delve


    too deeply into things. If one day she discovered that Cosmo had betrayed her or had been concealing


    other intentions, she would undoubtedly make a firm decision to end it.


    Her heart was soft, yet her personality was tough, and she could not bear sand in her eyes. Once she


    had made up her mind, she was far more resolute than Scarlett,


    After chatting with Scarlett for a while, Susan got up, cooked some food, and then rushed off to her


    evening shift after taking a few bites


    Scarlett’s gentle expression gradually faded as she left.


    Originally, she had intended to tell Susan about her condition, but now Susan was facing some


    difficulties of her own


    She feared that if she informe Susan now that she wouldn’t be around for much longer, the news would


    be too much for Susan to handle


    Scarlett pondered for a moment and concluded that slowing down was the best course of action. With


    Lanny’s special medicine, she wouldn’t die suddenly, right?


    Susan hurried downstairs and saw several luxury cars parked outside


    ncing at the windows, she recognized Dev’s people, several bodyguards dressed in ck.


    She had assumed Dev had left a while ago, yet she was surprised to find him still waiting at the door.


    His persistence elicited admiration from Susan.


    She walked up to the car window and knocked. No response came from within, and then a bodyguard


    emerged from the car


    behind her


    “Ma’am. Mr. Gatsby expressed his desire to be alone for a bit Please don’t intrude on him” Without


    saying a word, Susan turned to leave, but the window behind her had been lowered.


    “Susan


    He still called her casually and respected her just as much as when they were kids


    Susan stopped, ncing back at him. His eyes were red, a clear indication that he had been crying.


    Since he was a child, he had always been cold and aloof towards others, yet gentle when with Scarlett


    Most of the time, his eyes would betray a hint of hostility, a maturity that was not typical from a young


    man.


    As he grew, the hostility towards others intensified, yet when it came to Scarlett, it vanished


    Despite being deeply hurt by Scarlett, Susan knew he could not do anything to her, he was unable to


    hate her, nor could he bring himself to let go.


    He likely called out to Susan, asking what he should do, yet she had no clue.


    She also couldn’t understand why even after they had cleared up the misunderstanding. Scarlett still


    rejected him.


    After considering it, it could be due to Sebastian


    Dey invited Susan into the car, and they both settled into the roomy luxury vehicle, gazing at each


    other.


    In the end, it was Susan who spoke up, saying. “You’ve really transformed over the past few years”


    Although she had previously encountered him twice, she had never taken a close look at him.


    Liam had shed his former immaturity and was now


    ven


    noble and elegant


    She had always believed him to be a proud son of heaven, yet never imagined it to be true


    If he wasn’t the proud son of heaven, then what was he He was the Second Young Master of the


    Gatsby family, who had one hand covering the sky in the Imperial Capital
