The Wrong Woman
Chapter 251

Suzanne's mind spun with confusion. Betty was outside Imperial Heights?

She hastily dressed, and with the company of two vigilant bodyguards, she departed Sudvilla and made her way toward the guarded gates of Imperial Heights. Imperial Heights was the residence of high-ranking officials and dignitaries from Norvania. Thus, its gates were heavily guarded to prevent outsiders from entering. Stepping beyond the gates, Suzanne was met with a chaotic scene that ignited a fiery rage within her, her fists clenching and trembling with intensity.

Behind Betty, several relatives held up banners bearing the words: "Suzanne, Mom begs you for mercy for Dario and Samuel."

Betty knelt before the banner, tears streaking her face, resembling a pitiable and fragile mother.

Among the onlookers, at least two-thirds were reporters and media personnel, their cameras and phones at the ready.

Seeing Betty, Suzanne's eyes reddened with discomfort, her tears glistening. Though she wasn't Betty's daughter, the genuine devotion she had poured into the past three years felt utterly wasted.

Even a loyal pet wouldn't betray her, yet Betty's actions seemed intent on destroying Suzanne completely.

Confronting Betty, Suzanne's voice quivered with suppressed fury. "What are you doing?"

Betty looked up, and upon seeing Suzanne, she burst into tears. "My dear, I was wrong! I know I did wrong!"

At that moment, the media reporters were astonished to see Suzanne, the pivotal figure in the incident, Nathan's wife. They surged forward excitedly, snapping photos, recording videos, and live-streaming the

scene.

The bodyguards, sensing the danger, surrounded Suzanne immediately. Their voices lowered as they reminded her, "Madam, let's head home. Let Mr. Morrison handle this matter."

Suzanne felt deeply troubled. While she could rely on Nathan, she couldn't depend on him for everything. He was busy dealing with national affairs, managing the conglomerate, and handling a slew of external matters.

Moreover, the Morrison family was currently in disarray, with Daniel's life hanging in the balance in the hospital. Suzanne couldn't expect Nathan to resolve every crisis.

Whispers rippled through the crowd as onlookers exchanged speculative glances, passing judgment upon Suzanne.

Voices were raised among the relatives behind Betty, condemning Suzanne as an ingrate and accusing her of abandoning her parents.

They even commented that she abandoned the York family and wielded Nathan's influence to imprison Dario and Samuel. They painted her as a heartless betrayer.

The crowd erupted into a cacophony of jeers and booing, their eyes ablaze with contempt.

"Imprison?" Suzanne pondered. She seemed to grasp the situation.

If Betty truly wanted to save Dario and Samuel, she could have contacted Suzanne privately. Displaying banners and causing a commotion wasn't about rescuing them. It was simply a threat to extort more money from her.

Suzanne asked calmly, "Why were they imprisoned?"

Betty continued to cry without responding. A relative behind her spoke up, "Samuel was accused to be involved in human trafficking, while Dario committed rape under the influence of alcohol. It's all your husband's doing!"

Suzanne scoffed, and loudly questioned in front of the numerous reporters, "Did Nathan force them into human trafficking? Or force them into rape? Why accuse him of their wrongdoing?"

The relative stood defiantly and retorted, "Everything was peaceful until they accused you, this ingrate, on the television the other day!

"Then, both Samuel and Dario ran into trouble this morning. If it wasn't him, who else could it be?"

Suzanne indignantly declared, "That only proves they were able to hide their crimes well after committing them, not that they were innocent.

"If Nathan was manipulating behind the scenes and framed them, Betty wouldn't be kneeling here unharmed. It speaks for itself."

The crowd fell silent, unable to respond.
